Tom Segura, a comedian known for specials like "Completely Normal"
and "Sledgehammer", is also the creator of the TV show "Bad
Thoughts". He's appeared on "Conan" and "The Late Show with Stephen
Colbert". Today, he's here to teach us how to write comedy. What
makes Tom's humor so distinct is its observational and story-based
nature. He can look at something you've seen a thousand times and
point out a hilarious detail, making you realize, "Yes, that's
absolutely true!" That's why I asked him to come on the show and
teach us how he finds and writes those kinds of jokes. Here's his
answer, along with a few moments that had me in tears of laughter.
[TIMESTAMPS] About the host Hey! I’m David Perell and I’m a writer,
teacher, and podcaster. I believe writing online is one of the
biggest opportunities in the world today. For the first time in
human history, everybody can freely share their ideas with a global
audience. I seek to help as many people publish their writing
online as possible. Follow me Apple:
