We’re joined by comedian Eugene Mirman! The comedian and writer has opened for comedy duo Flight of the Conchords and played Yvgeny Mirminsky on Adult Swim’s Delocated. He is also the voice of “Gene Belcher” on the popular Fox animated series Bob’s Burgers. We’ll talk about his latest project, a documentary titled It Started as a Joke. It’s about Brooklyn’s alt comedy scene as well as a personal story about his family. Eugene joins Bullseye to discuss dealing with grief, defining space in his life for silliness and why community is so important to him. All that and more on the next Bullseye!
