It was 2010 when I began relentlessly touring comedy clubs. At the time, it was just me, the microphone, and whatever happened on stage. I taped my first comedy special in that format in 2015.
I went about putting together a new show in 2016, which just occurred to me as being comprised of stories that had largely happened on video camera. I thought, ‘Man, this new show I’m doing, I’m telling stories that there’s footage for.’ Like, wow, what if I edit the footage in during post-production and make it multimedia stories that are illustrated with actual video footage? That was my second comedy special, which worked tremendously well.
Then it left me with the desire to incorporate the multimedia component into the actual tour. Also, after that second comedy special, I had started to find it depressing that I was living in the past wit.
