John Mulaney on his start in comedy and unlikely Broadway success

I had absolutely no idea Mulaney and Kroll had been friends for that long or were old college buddies but it explains so damn much though.

This reporter has some chops so far as interviewing is concerned, all too often the interviewer tends to ask rubbish or cut off the interviewee, but not this guy. Good job Mr. Reporter sir.

[commandercool]

The interviewer confidently leads out with the adam eget classic "Where do you get your ideas from?"

[macklynneb]

College!Mulaney looks like a young Nathan Kress.
