Nikki Glaser: My Comedy Is Like Porn for Blind People


The stand-up star reveals how she prepared to roast Tom Brady and discusses turning suicidal thoughts into jokes for her latest HBO special, “Someday You’ll Die.”

And nowhere is that more apparent than in the epic closing bit of her special, in which Glaser perches on a stool to act out the hypothetical experience of being in an explicit gang bang. [Note: We recorded this interview before this past Sunday’s ‘Greatest Roast of All Time,’ where Glaser did, in fact, use the “r-word” in reference to Rob Gronkowski.] And as someone who was kissed by their dad on the mouth my whole childhood and into my adulthood, until I had to put a stop to it, I feel like I can come at that joke from a place of empathy.
