In "When can you see me on TV next?" news,
I'll be appearing again on
MONDAY OCTOBER 27 at 11:30pm.
It will repeat randomly throughout the week
Many thanks to for calling me one of "6 COMICS WHO COULD BE COMEDY'S NEXT BIG THING." Along with the incredibly talented Demetri Martin, Patton Oswalt, Flight of the Conchords, Aziz Ansari, and one of my favorites of all time, David Cross. I am quite honored to have been mentioned in that company. I think it's because I've been a long time subscriber to the magazine.

This is a recent stand up set I did on COMEDY JUICE night at the HOLLYWOOD IMPROV
For some reason I'm wearing a cowboy hat. Part 2 can be found below.
INTERESTS Performing Comedy. Writing. Taking unexpected trips to Mexico. Quantum physics. Girls. Watching the news. Good conversation. Playing basketball. Watching basketball. Making up weird games to play in my apartment. Eating. Sleeping. Drinking. And doing that other thing that's less bad than drinking but is currently illegal. You guessed it... Robbing people!
I'm being attacked by hot models on the beach in mexico, shooting "strip fights!" for the gleib show There are worse gigs.

This is a piece from an episode of The Gleib Show we shot at Sundance, for the National Lampoon Network. We did the show for three seasons, airing to colleges across the country, and teamed with Lorne Michaels and Broadway Video on making it into a pilot for FOX. But it never made it to air.
The Gleib Show is a genre blending tv comedy that mixes...just wait till it comes to your TV perhaps someday down the road.
Movies:
Meet Joe Black, Pulp fiction, Being John Malkovich, When Harry Met Sally (the dirty version,) Fletch, Midnight Run, American Beauty, Contact, Lost In Translation, anything with Macauley Caulkin (if that were true, I'd splash after shave on my face and look stunned at my lack of taste.)
This is a character I play on the show called
Zoran Zoran, the World's Fastest Hypnotist. It creeps some people out, but he's harmless.
Watch Zoran Here
Television:
Mr. Show, Family Guy, Daily Show, 60 Minutes, Curb Your Enthusiasm, SNL, Real Time with Bill Mahr, Arrested Development, The Gleib Show, Robot Chicken, Ali G, Chappelle's Show, NBA Playoffs.
Also I don't like old episodes of Facts of Life. Quite honestly, I found none of those characters the least bit appealing. Well, okay Blair was hot. But it wasn't enough. Plus it was shot in 80's color. I hate 80's color!
me directing Trishelle in a spoof of "Punk'd" for the gleib show. i played ashton.

This was from a hidden camera bit called "early trick or treating" where i went to people's door on October 2nd, and freaked them out a little.

I was on the red carpet, pretending to be "Dan Tanningsalon", from the new entertainment magazine show
"Celebrities Are Important."Needless to say I was fucking with them.
and little did they know they were actually on the gleib show.
i don't think it registered either way.
