Trying To Get Better(2023)
Recorded in Minneapolis at The Parkway Theater on Saturday, December 10th, Dan's 4th hour special (following Crazy with a Capital F, Don't Wake the Bear, and Get Outta Here; Devil!) is his best. Recorded in front of an enthusiastic audience of Timesuck podcast fans, and fans of his Scared to Death podcast as well, Dan talks about everything from the nonsensical political polarization of America, to abortion rights, to hunting, how modern language expectations could destroy his style of comedy, the problem with the intersection of religion and politics, and much more. All in his signature style of social commentary and sarcastic absurdism.
