Keith makes his comedy relatable and approachable while delivering it in a confident (and sometimes sarcastic) way. He’s performed for on numerous late might shows including Late Show With David Letterman, Late Night with Seth Meyers, Fox’s Red eye … basically any show on late at night.
He also has been a contributing writer for Saturday Night Live’s Weekend update and Jimmy Fallon.
We talk specifically about:
- Starting and stopping his pursuit of comedy
- Developing an act on the road
- Getting things squared away before jumping
- Noticing improvement
- Setting goals
- Why Nashville is a great place to start comedy
- The choice of NYC over LA
- His persistence in pursuing the David Letterman Show
- What the process was like leading up to the appearance
- The pressure of a second Letterman appearance
- His preference for writing
- Balancing road vs NYC
and much, much more.
This is another must listen for new and aspiring comedians. Especially if you are thinking about going into comedy full-time.
