Hello, this is Josh Gondelman. No, I'm sorry, I'm Josh Gondelman, and this is Make My Day,

a comedy game show, because the world is bad and we all need a little nice stuff. You know,

nice stuff, a few nice moments in the week. Every week, I play a game with one guest who is

guaranteed to win because they're the only contestant, and during the games we Every week I play a game with one guest who is guaranteed to win because they're the

only contestant, and during the games we play, I assign them points based exactly and specifically

on how much they cheer me up. It is fully subjective to my own life, and I will take no complaints

on the matter. Each week, the winner gives a pep talk to cheer up the person or entity or group of their choice after they win, because this is not all about me, it's just mostly about me.

And the grand prize winner each week wins a $100 donation to the cause of their choice.

This week, our guest and contestant is a stand-up comedian and a writer for Late Night with Seth Myers.

daily routine of some kind, because otherwise it just feels like each day bleeds into the next one.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But yeah, I think I'm doing, I think I'm doing okay. I got an embroidery kit a couple days ago, so I've been embroidering.
