My friend Alex Baia is a smart guy. And he can help you write better comedy.
He’s a prolific humorist who's published over 50 pieces in The New Yorker and McSweeney's. He serves as an editor of the humor site Slackjaw on Medium. He also co-hosts a self-help parody podcast, You But Better, that features genius comedy guests like Mike Sacks.
You can get a lot of free writing resources from Alex. I recommend his "Ultimate Humor Writing Cheat Sheet.” It’s comprehensive—more like a small book.
I’ve worked with him on a few projects, and I wanted to introduce you. He’s a good guy to know, especially if you aspire to write better humor.
Awesome! Just came across his McSweeny's elevator piece the other day and loved it.
I just got that Cheat Sheet yesterday! I've seen Alex's name around and loved his articles, but did not know about the podcast. Excited to check it out.
