Comedy Central calls him one of the 100 greatest comedians of all time.
He calls Seattle a “good comedy town” where “audiences are open and smart – and show up.”
That’s only part of what veteran actor, standup comic, and writer Paul Reiser told The Dori Monson Show when he came on to talk about his one-night Friday performance at The Neptune Theatre.
Dori’s half-hour interview covered everything from Reiser’s early days on the standup laugh circuit with Jerry Seinfeld, Larry Miller, Bob Saget, and even Larry David – “A little ahead of us. He was a junior when we were freshmen.” – to cancel culture, empty nesting, and “Mad About You.”

“I don’t want to go out on a limb, but I have a feeling that Friday is going to be the best show that I’ve ever done,” Reiser told Dori about his local appearance.
