Chris & Gary join us for Episode 4! Chris Gethard & Gary Gulman, both hilarious and talented comedians/actors/authors sit down with Marlon to discuss what life has been like since the release of their own critically acclaimed HBO Original Comedy Specials, exclusively focusing on their own mental health journey: Chris Gethard- Career Suicide (2017) Gary Gulman- The Great Depresh (2019)

Comedian/Author Gary Gulman and Jay compare their latchkey childhoods with memories of being alone, watching endless TV and worrying about whether the real world would have more channels. We also talk about needing to be funny, the excitement of being on a soundstage for the first time, how one of us was built to play basketball, and how we owe our parents nothing but do a million things for them anyway.Bio: Gary Lewis Weston Gulman is a comedian's comedian. His legendary routine about State Abbreviations went viral on Conan a few years ago. His special The Great Depresh about his bout with severe depression broke new ground comedy and his new special “Born on Third” and his book “Misfit” look back on his childhood as a very poor Jew in the Boston area. Gary lives in New York with his wife Sade (not that one) and plays basketball everywhere he goes.

In this episode, Wynne Leon and Vicki Atkinson are talking with Edgerton award winning playwright, musician, and writer Jack Canfora.   Talking with Jack is like attending a master class on creativity. In fact, our conversation with Jack is so rich with both writing practices and nuggets about authors and artists that we've split it into two episodes. In this first episode, we talk with Jack about depression and creative expression. He adds some fantastic and funny insight from comedian, Gary Gulman (HBO special: The Great Depresh). Jack also reveals a couple of his brilliant ways to experiment when he's hit a creative lull. His answer about whether he writes long-hand will have you giggling right along with Vicki and me. He tells us what is hard to teach and important to learn about creative attention. And he shares with us a delightful story about the Beatles song Eleanor Rigby that exposes an intimate insight into the creative process. (Here's a video clip of Jack telling this story) With all the food for thought and inspiration, we know you will have plenty of chew on until the conclusion of our incredible conversation airs next week. We love talking with the brilliant and funny Jack Canfora and leave each conversation a little bit smarter, much more inspired to hone the craft of writing, and in awe of a master creator. We know you'll love this episode!

It's now been four years since Gary Gulman released his remarkable stand-up special ‘The Great Depresh.' And despite a global pandemic that caused its own parallel mental health crisis, he says he's really never felt better. The prolific comedian has a new memoir out called ‘Misfit: Growing Up Awkward in the ‘80s' and when we spoke, he was about to perform at Carnegie Hall—less than five years after he walked out of a psychiatric ward. In this episode, Gulman opens up about how he turned things around and achieved a new level of comedy confidence that has allowed him to be vulnerable on stage in a whole new way. He also weighs in on Bo Burnham's anxiety-themed special ‘Inside,' discusses his role in Amy Schumer's Hulu series ‘Life & Beth', looks back at his “miserable” time on Dane Cook's ‘Tourgasm' and a lot more.This episode was originally published on September 21st, 2021.Buy Gary Gulman's book ‘Misfit: Growing Up Awkward in the ‘80s'Follow Gary Gulman on Twitter @GaryGulman and Instagram @garygulmanFollow Matt Wilstein on Twitter @mattwilsteinFollow The Last Laugh on Instagram @lastlaughpod and Threads @lastlaughpodHighlights from this episode and others at The Daily Beast.

What is it like to feel better in your mental state? And what does it take to get there and to stay that way? Those are some of the questions we ask in this interview with the great comedian Gary Gulman. Gary sounds very different than when John Moe first interviewed him back in the fall of 2017 when Gary had been hospitalized for depression and was just beginning to turn things around. We hear about how he convinced himself to begin a very kind and manageable exercise regimen, how he tended to his nutrition, and how he took a pretty radical approach to saying yes to just about every opportunity that came his way, even when that meant having lunch with audience members who asked on the day after a show.From this episode, host John Moe says, “We spend a lot of time on this podcast talking about what it's like to feel terrible. Because it's good to know that and people can relate and feel less alone. We carry each other's load. But I thought it would be good to also hear about what recovery can sound like.”For more live shows and more information, visit Gary's website, www.GaryGulman.com.OH AND ALSO it's the week 2 of our annual MAX FUN DRIVE!

After comedian Gary Gulman's last Netflix special premiered in 2016, he went down a dark hole, going as far as to check himself into a mental hospital and undergo electroshock treatments. He has since recovered and turned his experience into an hour-long special, with the goal of making depression easier to talk about through comedy. In this episode, Gary joins us to talk about his recovery and how he can be confident that his "depresh" is now in "remish" for good.

Gary Gulman is a comedian I love as a professional, a person and a friend. He first came on my podcast in 2016. When he was severely depressed. He could barely get out of bed. I admired him. Because he was really honest about it. He's doing better now. But there's no such thing as perfect when it comes to mental health. We all have our battles. Whether it's with self-doubt, fear of getting out of our comfort zone, wanting to be liked... or if it's the intense spectrum of clinical depression, which Gary brings light to. And laughter in his new HBO comedy special, "The Great Depresh."   Hey. I'm giving away free copies of my new book, "The Side Hustle Bible." It's a collection of 177 proven ways to make extra income.
