“Remember the guy who played Jerry on ‘Seinfeld’?” Great delivery, so funny!

@montananerd8244 5 ай бұрын

In addition to shining a light on mental health in a big way, Gary is also one of the finest joke writers of all time. The state abbreviations...omg dont drive while listening, it's too funny for that.

Been a fan of his since he was on Last Comic Standing. To me, he and Louis CK are the best comic writers of their generation. However, my wife and I saw him last year in Tarrytown, New York and he actually came off as angry. He clearly loathes Seinfeld. We left wondering if his depression had returned.

I love Gary Gulman. I got to see him perform in 2015, and it was absolutely phenomenal. He stayed in the lobby afterward to talk to everyone and take pictures with anyone who wanted them. He was such a great, down to earth guy.

@bellroad100 5 ай бұрын

I saw him on his tour this last fall and same! He stayed after to meet and sign book copies for every single person who waited in line to meet him (and there were a lot!). He was genuinely engaged with everyone he talked to, even asking US questions. It was so fun talking to him, and I even made HIM laugh…like “throw his head back” laugh! A nicer person you couldn’t meet. And oh yeah, he’s funny as hell too!

@shahinarya 5 ай бұрын

Gary Gulman is indeed once of the best, if not the best, comedians alive! He is well read (hence writing superbly), highly intelligent, way way down to earth, compassionate and an all around wonderful human being. Thank you Gary for being who you are and for the very important art/work you have been doing!

For anyone worried about his academics, he ended up at Boston University! And again thank you Gary, for making The Great Depresh available for everyone for free when HBO first released it. That mattered a lot more than even I expected - I got a little extra motivation from that & am on a mostly positive path back to working full time! ❤

LOL I love the economy plus joke. I'm flying from Toronto to Honolulu direct and the couple with a baby next to me are like, "Hey do you want to switch seats so it'll be easier for us?". Me- "No. I prefer to be able to walk after this flight." Did not go over well and then they fought with each other after trying to scam me out of leg room for a baby. They got super mad around hour 4 when I asked if the baby sling thing could be in front of them instead of in my leg room that I paid for. The baby was actually great. The parents didn't shut up for like 6 hours out of 10 hours. I hope they are well.
