One of my favorite comedians (and why you should watch him)

Since my last few blogs have been preachy, or braggy, or learn-y, this week I thought I'd do one that's simply funny.

Jim Gaffigan: smart, clever, and clean(ish)

One of my favorite comedians is Jim Gaffigan. He's smart, he's clever, and he's clean, which means I can safely recommend him to corporate clients, because someone always asks, "Who's your favorite comedian" during post-gig Q&As.

His newest special, "The Skinny"

I finally watched Jim's most recent special, "The Skinny," and I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe. To be fair, I have asthma, so that's not a terribly high bar, but the point is I loved it.

Where to watch Jim Gaffigan’s special

In the US, it's available on Hulu, and a few other places.
If you're in the UK, it's on Disney+.

(I don't get any kind of kickback for those links. Just saving you a tedious Google search.)

Go full comedy nerd (optional but recommended)

If you want to go full comedy nerd, after you watch the special, watch Jim talk about it on Conan O'Brien's podcast.
