John Hodgman’s Touring Expertise
Hodgman’s résumé certainly portrays a man of many talents. From working as literary agent in New York, to a stint as the humor editor for New York Times Magazine, Hodgman has blessed the world with his all-encompassing knowledge of all that exists. Of course, his appearances on “The Daily Show” haven’t exactly hurt his career.
As if constantly solving the world’s problems didn’t keep him busy enough, Hodgman also has a somewhat regular podcast on MaximumFun.org where he discusses cerebral questions as “Is chili a soup or a stew?”
Now he’s taking his encyclopedic knowledge for a spin down America’s touring superhighway. The man who played Louis Green on HBO’s “Bored To Death” has dates scattered from September to November with destinations including Philadelphia, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh and Milwaukee. Here’s the schedule:
