463 Best Of - Paul F Tompkins

Summary: The talented stand-up comedian and writer/actor (HBO’s Mr. Show, Bojack Horseman) talks about the role therapy played in helping him turn his pain and rejection into being a happier person and a better artist.  He opens up about the shame of having parents who didn’t find him funny or necessarily interesting, and the beauty of being given a second chance by a peer who was ready to write him off for his past bitterness.
