Dane Cook Interview

Well I finally met the guy. He was the 161st comedian / actor I have interviewed for Sirius. The suits certainly made a huge deal out of it. I can understand why. He is the most famous comedian in the world right now and has been on top for a couple of years.

To me it was not just another interview because it was an hour long rather than 15 minutes or so that I am used to. Also they wanted to do some different things so I had to prepare a lot more. Which I did.

And I wont lie and say I wasnt excited to meet a guy I have heard about every day for 2 years been compared to (all comedians are) and heard so many mixed reviws about.

I have recieved lots of e mails asking me about Dane. I would say how come I dont recieve that many asking about Greg Giraldo or Artie Lange. Guys I am actually friends with.

I can say this. I liked Dane Cook. He came off as sincere and extremely hard working. Two qualities I admire. I am sorry I cant slam him and rant about him but I would be lying if I did.

Dane was cool and had a lot of fun. So did I. The suits were all really happy and they replayed the thing a hundred times. In the end I was proud of doing it right and the fact that I had so much exposure to someone so on fire. I guess that means that I must be doing well too.

It means that I work for a legit company that reaches a lot of people.

I think the interview was funny and entertaining and I hope you did too.
