Who wrote the music in this video? I hope you can respond when you can. Thanks for sharing.
Great David Sedaris story: I let my brother borrow "Me Talk Pretty One Day" but I cautioned, "Don't read it in public!" So what does my brother do? He takes it on a PLANE with him! He was laughing so hard, tears rolling down his face and all the other passengers thought he was crazy. I warned him!
I did the same thing and embarrassed myself at the airport! 😂
I have this class but still didn't start watching it, does it work well for a stand up comedian/script writer? I know storytelling is important to what i mentioned but is it really good?
