Performing sold-out shows and starring in an Oscar-winning movie… to helping catch a serial killer, Patton Oswalt has one of the most eclectic careers of anyone working today.  Paradoxically known for his wholesome characters and his provocative stand-up, Patton speaks with Dan about what it was like forging his comedy career and falling into acting without intending to make a living off of it. Patton’s also no stranger to grief and recovery. He speaks about dealing with his vast anxiety surrounding his wife’s passing, raising their young daughter alone, and explores the joys of finding new love and building a life after the unimaginable.
