DLG330 Dr. Lisa checks in with comedian Myq Kaplan.
Myq Kaplan is back for his 3rd time on Dr. Lisa gives a shit. We reflect on the last time Myq was on which was during the pandemic. I had 3 topics to discuss with Myq-we got to touch on all of them. Some of these topics followed up from a 2020 Dr. Lisa episode, DLG235 Comedian Myq Kaplan has an Myq-like, productive journey to a good quarantined relationship. And there's another episode with Myq from 2016, titled: 1601_DLG_Comedian Myq Kaplan talks about his previous therapy w/ Dr. Lisa How do you manage to have such a healthy, mature relationship with your girlfriend Rini? Does your use of psychedelics help you with understanding yourself and does it help with this? Your relationship with language seems like the medium you use for your art (comedy). How did your specific relationship with language come into being? Since the last time we spoke on air was during the pandemic—curious to know what effect the pandemic had for you, especially as a touring comic. More about Myq and his upcoming show IMPERFECT, June 1, Union Hall, BK Tickets HERE Myq Kaplan has been a comedian for 20 years, a human for 44, and a philosophy guy for WHAT EVEN IS TIME?! In "ImPerfect," Kaplan offers advice to his past self on subjects ranging from traditional marriage to polyamory, quantum mechanics to psychedelics, Moby Dick to Nintendo, reflecting on potential improvements as a man, a partner, and matter/energy comprising an infinitesimal portion of the universe. Infinitesimal, but acclaimed: in their review of his 2018 Edinburgh debut, Chortle said Kaplan "...should be making any comedy connoisseur’s ‘to see’ list." And that's the PAST! See how much more perfect "ImPerfect" is NOW. With special guests Nadia Pinder and Liz Glazer Myq Kaplan has appeared on the Tonight Show, Conan, Letterman, James Corden, Seth Meyers, Comedy Central, Last Comic Standing, and America’s Got Talent. He has a one-hour standup special on Amazon, “Small, Dork, and Handsome,” and two podcasts, The Faucet and Broccoli and Ice Cream. His debut album, “Vegan Mind Meld,” was one of iTunes’ top 10 comedy albums of the year, and his newest album, “A.K.A.,” debuted at #1 and was called “invigoratingly funny” by the NY Times!
