7 things you can learn from Jim Gaffigan

In this episode we talk about the new Jim Gaffigan show on TV Land. We also go over seven things Jim Gaffigan is doing in his career that you can absolutely do in yours.

We talk about:

  • Why inspiration may be closer than you think
  • How not thinking like a comedian can lead to big laughs
  • When is a joke “over”?
  • When work ethic alone isn’t enough
  • Why letting up on the gas is not an option
  • The trick to promoting while still being humble
  • Gaffigan’s approach to social media
  • Why a mindset shift is key in today’s media landscape

And much, much more!
