Mighty grateful for all the birthday wishes from everyone! Started the day at grandson Joe’s soccer game. This is not a “participation trophy,” they got 2nd place. Later his sister Avery helped me blow out my birthday candle. Kinda perfect!

Congratulations to my grandkids Joe and Avery for catching their first fish in Gull Lake here in northern MN. We threw them back. The fish.

Franni and I are in Southern CA for my shows in Santa Barbara (sold out) and San Diego (not sold out). Also, for grandkids, Joe and Avery. https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/0A005B8AD2D83754
It was great spending time with my daughter, Thomasin, in her pottery studio. You know how I’m an artist in comedy? She’s an artist in pottery! Follow her @tenleystudios
Spent the week in Maine visiting Franni’s family. Her mom is 99! Here’s me with grandkids Avery and Joe. Flying with them to LA to host Kimmel on Tuesday. I’m hosting not them.

I was on The 11th Hour last night with Stephanie Ruhle and got to weigh in on my former colleague Ron Johnson!
Happy Fathers Day, Dads! Here’s three: Alan, Joe, and Owen Franken in Albert Lea, MN. 1956. Dad was the sweetest, funniest, and most loving father. I miss him so!
Do your civic duty and watch the only former U.S. senator to ever guest host the show!
Last night I was on CNN Tonight, commenting on the hearings. I made the point that those who testified should have spoken out BEFORE January 6th. I’m afraid I might have come off as pissed. Because I am.
Went to an amazing Dead & Co. show last night. Stopped by the HeadCount booth, a nonpartisan group which has registered over a million folks to vote!
Hey, everybody! The Only Former US Senator Currently On Tour Tour hits Bethlehem, PA. on Fri. night & Tarrytown, NY on Sun. If you are not vaccinated, we will forcibly vaccinate you & then send you on your way! It’s illegal, but we don’t care! https://alfranken.com/appearances
Math problem – My grandkids, Avery & Joe, are ¾ Ashkenazi Jewish and ¼ Irish Catholic. Guess which one of their grandparents makes them go through this annual ritual? If you guessed Franni – you’re right!
NEWS: Last night, they announced that I’ll be hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday night, August 16th! Wish they had told me! Evidently my guests are going to be Bob Odenkirk from Better Call Saul, Congresswoman Katie Porter (CA-47), and Los Lobos! Exactly who I would’ve picked!
I was extremely good on @FallonTonight earlier this evening. Tune in tonight at 11:35 EST. And thank you, @JimmyFallon! Photo Credit: Ryan Muir/NBC
Happy Mothers Day to every mom out there! But especially to Franni, our daughter Thomasin, and daughter-in-law Stephanie. And to my mother-in-law Fran, the Matriarch, who turns 99 tomorrow!!!
Back on tour! Did Bethlehem, PA on Friday. Bought the old Bethlehem Steel factory for just 50 bucks! Not sure what to do with it. Tarrytown, NY tonight! 7pm
Performing at the State Theatre tomorrow evening. Franni graduated Deering High in… well, awhile ago. This is summer ‘83 in Harpswell with 2-yr-old Thomasin & my much older parents. As the sign says, We Love Maine! https://www.ticketmaster.com/event/01005B8ACF406986
