"My father said that I was lower than a dog, because even a dog believes in God." — Ari Shaffir

I'm just a weird mix of immature and intelligent and I like to share my point of view and who I am.

I was on the outside of the industry. So I started a podcast early in the podcast boom and that caught on a little. I made an album that went to No. 1 on the iTunes charts. I made my own special. I started my own storytelling show.

To me, every time it goes badly I see it as a good thing - because that means I'm one step closer to where I want to be.

Failing is part of my process. A new bit never works the first time. I figure I have to bomb 7 times to make it good. So I tweak it.
