A couple of months ago at Testify I met a funny, nice guy named Joey Zimmerman who runs a monthly show and podcast called The Listening Room. And he recently asked if I’d be willing to tell a story on the show on July 8th.
A listing on Do512 about the show says “Join us for tales told by Austin’s finest comedians and special guests.”
Unless I’ve somehow become one of Austin’s finest comedians without knowing about it (which I’d be totally okay with, btw) I suppose that means I’m a special guest.
Anyway, I get to tell any story I want. I’m thinking maybe I’ll tell this one, but I’m open to suggestions.
Note to self: sometime soon you gotta do that story about your dad’s cell phone going off over and over and over again at The Marsh in San Francisco where the star of the show broke from character and confronted us directly (“Is there something about technology you don’t understand???”). Maybe in another couple of months it will seem funny. Right now it’s still a nightmare that haunts me every time I go and see a show and have my cell phone in my pocket.
Anyway, come see me in a couple of weeks if you can! If you don’t, I’ll miss you!
