Dave Landau

And we are here on a Tuesday.

Tomorrow, Dave Landau, by the way.

I know Dave's got some dates coming up, too.

I saw he's playing in Berkeley later this month.

Yeah, that'd be nice.

Anyway, okay.

Tomorrow, Dave Landau will be with us.

And we'll wrap up the week.

Do America.

It is Stu Bergeer along with Dave Landau.

Ahoy, we meet again.

Dave, finishing up a big weekend in Vegas.

Welcome to this show.

Dave Landau, comedian, author of Party of One, A Fuzzy Memoir.

What's up, Dave?

Hey, Will.

Yeah, very Canadian humor.

Yeah.

All right, so Dave Landau's in Vegas.

He's at the Brad Garrett Comedy Club through Sunday.

Welcome to Stu and Dave Do America.

I am Stu Bergeer, along with Dave Landau, who's back.

Hello, ahoy, we meet again.

We do, and I'm very jealous right now because you've got a great set going on at Brad Garrett's Comedy Club in Las Vegas right now.

So I would say that's one for sure.

Dave Landau is another that I think of.

He talks about real things.

He has a witty, clever, kind of sardonic, like a little bit of like a shot from out of nowhere, just a boop.

He will have a take on something that you didn't see coming.

He'll have a quick-witted response when asked a question on a panel that others would have to sit and write and think of.

And a lot of times, you'll see Dave Landau be a guest on Kill Tony or on Story Wars, these other comedy podcasts, where...

some of his jokes don't land because the the audience is not smart enough to get it and he's he's referencing something that you'd have to know three things about in order to get the joke he just made but if you do it's it's good and so i would say dave landau for sure he has a new special out a half an hour special on gas digital so i would check that out that's free on youtube And then, again, here's one that I don't think people would call a comedian by trade or by nature, but he is funny as all hell.

So you get the sense of when you want, it's one of the central things that I think about.

And it goes, I was talking to Dave Landau, who I do a show with, Stu and Dave do America.

It's on Blaze TV.

If you haven't seen it, I think you'll like it.

i don't know how i got into this man i've just been failing forward my whole life is an american great the uh... i'm a failed minor league baseball player trying to be a pro baseball player kick five years and and then after that tried to be in the real world that didn't work i'm probably the only person in history that can say that they wrote for both chris christie and wendy williams uh... you know and uh... started making my way in comedy and then from comedy I made my way into television, from television made my way into sketch.

I was writing on a show called Normal World with Dave Landau.

We did a couple sketches and got a few million views.

I made my way into becoming a national headliner, and now I'm in movies coming out on major platforms soon.

We are the canary in the coal mine, and we are the voice for the voiceless in many ways.

Industry does everything they can do, however, to silence those dissident voices.

I work with amazing comics, Jeff Dye, Brian Kapp, Dave Landau, who you can't find smarter, more intelligent writers uh better crafted comedy than those guys and they take chances and they are brave and they're not on netflix not a lot right so they sell tickets and they've got credits but industry still picks and chooses right and then there's the the big uh trope that all women aren't funny i know so many incredibly funny women But unless you're fitting that box, unless you're that character who is going to talk about how evil men are, how bad marriage is, how good abortion is, right? then they're not going to promote.

Carol Ann Miljavik is one of the funniest human beings on earth, but she's a devout Christian, mother of four, very pro-life, and industry just says, nope, next.
