Ep. 55 Psychology of the Man who Lives in the Van, Infamous Maria Bamford Story, Comedy as Socially Acceptable Addiction + More
We have a hilarious guest on TYPP! this week. It's comedian Jake Silberman who has spent a majority of the past three years living in a van, as he tours the country performing stand up. We delve into the inner-workings of the psychology of the man who lives in the van. What's it like? How dark does it get? How does it feel to live outside of society? Are there any surprisingly positive aspects? Also in this episode, JFOD reveals a very embarrassing, yet hilarious (after the fact) interaction he had with one of his comedy heroes, Maria Bamford. Ben discusses how comedy has helped him cultivate a sense of purpose + lots more.
