Mourning Coffee
Mourning Coffee was a podcast where I talked to comedians and creative types about how they deal with mourning, grief, loss, and death in their everyday lives. I began the podcast in the aftermath of losing my best friend and roommate, Amy Daulton, to suicide. I recorded over 100 episodes of the show and the entire archive can be found on the Mourning Coffee website here.
You can listen to the entire run of the podcast on Apple Podcasts here.
Not Quite Midnight
A BROOKLYN-BASED LIVE LATE NIGHT TALK SHOW
With comedian Courtney Maginnis, I co-produce and co-host a kitschy, self-aware version of a traditional late night talk show. At Not Quite Midnight, we introduce our favorite comedians for short performances, then take them to the couch to get to the bottom of their jokes. Like and Follow us on Facebook
Here's the opening sketch for our one year anniversary show.
