    Summary

    You know, when I first told my manager I was gay, he was like, "is this a bit?" Like, I'm so dedicated to my career, I've started a relationship with another man and now he's saved as 'Dream Boy' on my phone just so that I can expand my comedic repertoire. So obviously, I was like, "no, it's not a bit. I have not spent all morning on my knees just so that I get to make a blowjob joke on stage later." And then he hung up on me.

    A transcript of the first taped performance of Richie Tozier's comeback show, in which jokes are made, the queer experience is dissected, and wigs are snatched. Whatever that means.

    Summary

    Trying to make it in comedy was easier in concept, even for a bonafide funnyguy, and the pressure from managers to keep his jokes “family friendly” led him down paths he didn’t know were dangerous until he woke up the next morning with a nose bleed and no recollection of the night before.

    Now he’s clean and spends his days explaining the difference between jelly and fruit preserves to women named Linda or Carol. Which is cool. You can never be too gay for a grocery store themed like a pirate ship.

    Summary

    He’s still thinking about what Ben said as he turns the token in his fingers, I kept it in my wallet echoing in his head and making him feel oddly unsettled. 

    “This is a token from the Capitol Theatre,” he says quickly. He goes to throw it in the fire, but something stays his hand. A feeling of wrongness he can’t place. 

    I kept it in my wallet. 

    “You brought an actual token?”

    For twenty-seven years.

    The sudden headrush he gets looking over at Eddie is overwhelming as the memory snaps into place. It’s like the wind has been knocked clean out of his chest, a feeling like deja vu but with a stronger emphasis on nausea that has Richie fearing a repeat performance of the fire escape at his last show.

    “Fuck.”

    Summary

    Richie had no idea what to expect when Stan and Patty asked him to be their daughter's godfather, but it definitely wasn't becoming the part-time dad to a newborn.
