Comedy Central Half Hour Comedian and Finding My Audience podcast host, Allen Strickland Williams joins Joshua to discuss books written by his friends including one he calls the best book about comedy since Steve Martin's "Born Standing Up". They get into the best French Dip sandwich in downtown Los Angeles, a little Mike Davis per usual for Joshua, and how Allen's favorite Kurt Vonnegut book seems to be no one elses.
Books talked about include:
Running the Light by Sam Tallent
Driven to Distraction by Edward Hallowell and John Ratey
Call Me By Your Name by Andre Aciman
Slapstick by Kurt Vonnegut
Dead Cities by Mike Davis
Born Standing Up by Steve Martin
