Feed“The guy I saw yesterday. He was crossing Eighth Avenue against the light. He just sauntered out into the middle of the street with cars and cabs speeding toward him and it meant nothing to him. Like he’s the only living soul and the rest of us were ghosts. I love that man, whoever he is.”
Louis C.K. won two Emmys last night and this is really good news for comedy. For what it’s worth, I was a PA on the show and the special, and I’m really proud of everyone involved who worked so hard on both to help make this happen.
Remember to download Louis CK’s new stand-up special. It’s only $5, which translates to about .0003 cents per laugh. What a bargain!
I worked as a PA on it and even though I’m heavily biased and was paid off, I can honestly say it’s the funniest thing you’ll ever watch in your entire life.
