Which is exactly the reason I bought it. Sure, I like his comedy, but I wasn't going to buy his live show. That is, until I read his appeal and found out how humble he really is. It's great to finally see humans treating each other like humans and still make money.


Yeah, I hope more artists follow this example, because it's very successful for the artists and far more satisfying for the audience. Another person like that is Howard Tayler (author of Schlock Mercenary, among other things) who is a very, very clever author/businessman who is very inventive in how he interacts with his audience. For example, Howard holds parties to get people to help him ship out his books. They manage to mix fun with work and come out ahead.


the video made it for me- humble how it started with just him walking in through the front doors, then walk on stage with no warm up act and no announcements.

Nothing was over produced, human from start to finish
