Oh my god. I can’t believe this is real. One of the most kind, wonderful and talented people I’ve ever met. What an insane loss.
First show back tonight. I miss this guy. (@beckbennett not Mike Lindell)
Love that they’re re-airing Betty White’s SNL episode tonight as a tribute. It was one of my favorite episodes ever when I was a newer writer on the show. Got to write CSI: Sarasota and a Scared Straight with Betty White in a prison uniform that I never thought she’d do. I remember Betty had a vodka soda right before the show which seemed pretty bad-ass (and dangerous?) for a 90-year-old about to do a live sketch show. And even then it was so cool that Jay-Z sang “Young Forever” on the Betty White show. RIP to one of the best hosts ever.

Very excited to be a Jeopardy answer that no one got right. My mom texted me that someone guessed “conin o brien.” Only thing that makes me feel better is that no one answered @davechappelle right a couple months ago and the clue was a photo of him and the phrase “he played Bradley Cooper’s longtime friend” #thatdamnmichaelche #cousinelon
An update on @ColinJost and #PeteDavidson’s ferry.
At dress rehearsal last night I talked about how much I love @venenolaserie Then that section got cut for time. But then the graphic still appeared on the air show for some reason, out of nowhere. Which was pretty confusing since I think I was talking about @gamestop at the time. But if you haven’t seen Veneno, I highly recommend it. You might not guess it from the poster but it will almost certainly bring you to tears. (Just like @gamestop if you run a hedge fund.)
Guys, my book is officially on sale today. I just looked back and realized that I started writing it in April of 2015. I’m extremely grateful to everyone who helped make it happen and I hope you’ll read it. Who knows, you may have the same reaction as Amy Schumer: “I was caught off guard by how much I enjoyed this book, considering how indifferent I feel about Colin as a person.” Thank you Amy and anyone who gives the book a chance.
Oooo “overwhelming demand”! Guess @chethinks IS a good publicist after all
Stand up this weekend Added late shows Hope to see all of you there and I will fight the fire marshall if he turns anyone away

Whoa. I just won an Audie for best audiobook (humor). Not only was I honored just to be nominated, I was honored that they classified it as humor. You never know. Plus one of my favorite writers @davidsedarisbooks announced the winner and one of my favorite novelists Jennifer Egan was a judge. I’m really grateful to everyone who listened to the book and voted. This might be the first individual award I’ve won since Least Improved Swimmer 1998 #audies2021
DETROIT. I’m coming to the Fillmore this Sunday with some SNL friends. Come on by. Tickets on my website or wherever you buy tickets to things.
Real authors do trailers. Thanks to @caseyjost and @beckbennett for their editing skills and dulcet tones. Link to book in bio.
Threw on a Clarendon filter. That’s how excited I am that I got to work with my bro @caseyjost and @impracticaljokersofficial
Parx Casino tonight. Somewhere between Philly and Trenton? Is that a place where people meet? “If you’re wandering south out of Trenton, come on by!” *Photo taken at my detective agency
Some of the most fun shows of my life. Thanks to @wilsylvince @stevebyrnelive @alex3nglish @andrewdismukes @shrimpjaj @sk8rpunk69 @dave.dugan.10 and @sarahsquirm minus food poisoning for a great run of shows. More to come. Very grateful for everyone who came out to see us. Especially Javier in DC.
Ok this book tour is officially my favorite part of writing a book. I’ll be speaking with Mr Downey Jr. Monday night. He’s already promised to tear me apart emotionally. Supporting @booksoup a fantastic book store and terrible soup restaurant. Former vs Current SNL cast member. All questions will be answered. Well, realistically like the first 20. Link to tix in bio. I’m extremely excited.
