"I rolled the dice so that all the rolls that you see in the story are rolls that I actually made, and then I engineered the decisions and so on to fit the arc of the story I wanted to do." @pennjillette #Random @AkashicBooks #relistenability wpr.org/master-magicia…

.@TigNotaro Congratulations on your excellent work directing @AtsukoComedy's @HBOMax special, #TheIntruder. It's cool how Atsuko went from imitating your delivery in her early standup work to having you direct this fantastic special. #FullCircle wpr.org/beta-atsuko-ok…
"You can do a lot without having papers. So I like to normalize it by saying undocumented folks are just Americans without papers. They're able to go to public school. They're your friends. They're your neighbors." @AtsukoComedy #TheIntruder @hbomax wpr.org/beta-atsuko-ok…
