I skipped over the majority of this book, and thought it was less than average. Don‘t waste your time!

My husband was afraid of losing his bookmark.
Enjoyed the intro and the idea of a kid pursuing and succeeding in interviewing professional comedians. I'm not really interested in the art of comedy, "the process." Let's see how far I get with this one.
Judd Apatow's documentary on Garry Shandling is one of the most profound, intimate, and humane pieces of comedic scholarship I have ever come across. Shandling was not only a writer and performer, but a mentor and philosopher. He wrote in his diary, "You realize now that comedy is your soul." This is an amazing investigation into the creative process of an artist. Two interviews with Shandling (30 years apart) are included in Apatow's book.
From the writer and director of #KnockedUp and the producer of #FreaksandGeeks comes a collection of intimate, hilarious convos with the biggest names in comedy: #MelBrooks, #JerrySeinfeld, #JonStewart, #RoseanneBarr, #HaroldRamis, #LouisCK, #ChrisRock, and #LenaDunham. #SickintheHead gathers Apatow‘s most memorable and revealing conversations into one hilarious, wide-ranging, and candid collection spanning his adult life #AugustLibrary17 #daisies
Ha! Whoopsie. 🤦🏼♀️ #booknerdproblems
Sick in the Head is a perfect read for anyone who needs a book they can pick up and put down at will. Like, for example, if you just got two puppies! It is filled with short, wildly informative, interviews with comedians!
Ready to give this bad boy a go! Apatow is one of my favorite directors and producers. Can't wait to see what this is like.
#RiotGrams #FunnyBooks Apatow's interviews with comedians, started when he was just fourteen, were enlightening. The creative process, the art, the angst of performing...
Hilarious, smart, deep, intriguing. It's full of inspirational quotes from super famous and influential comedians. If you are minutely aware of comedy, it's a great read.
When I realized I didn't even particularly care about the interviews with these two, I knew it was time to call it quits. If you are really interested in comedians' processes, you might like this. There are comedians I really like and admire but this book wasn't for me.
#somethingforsept #booksanddrinks My friend felt bad that I didn't get cake for my birthday last month so she made me DELICIOUS spice cake cupcakes from scratch. Even just the smell is amazing. 😋 Enjoying it with tea and a book (a favorite combo).
I wanted so much more from this book! For such a successful man, Judd really doesn't have a self esteem, and that isn't attractive. I was interested to learn all the many things Judd had been involved in, so it was an okay book.

I just started to hear more about this book recently, so I decided to give it a shot. And... I loved the sassy emoji-like binding!
So I come to Alaska and the first day I have to check out the book store.
