583 - Simon King (Dark Comedy Legend to Be)

Published: Oct. 4, 2023, 5 p.m.

Simon is a Canadian comic with a particular talent for going places that scare the shit out of most of us. He looks into the shadows and finds the humor. From my perspective, that\u2019s the kind of mind that deserves our respect, admiration, and gratitude. Sometimes, laughter is the only antidote to despair, so I consider Simon to be something like a hospice nurse. However I go out, I hope I manage to choke out a chuckle at the beautiful absurdity of it all.

Here\u2019s that Amazon link I keep forgetting to mention. Hope your fall is going well so far.
