Myq Kaplan, Comedian

Myq Kaplan is a comedian who has appeared on Last Comic Standing and every late night talk show you can think of. He’s known for his brilliant wordplay as well as his self-deprecating humor. His albums Vegan Mind Meld and Meat Robot are absolutely hilarious, but his latest show Small, Dork and Handsome is, in my opinion, his best one yet. It’s on Netflix right now and you’re gonna want to watch it… after we’re done with this interview.

We spoke with Myq about why most comedians seem to be non-religious, whether his jokes are ever truly finished, and what he learned from Louis C.K.
