Making a living in the arts is brutal. One of the things artists have to learn to do is manage their money and to structure their lives so that they’re doing the kind of work they WANT to do instead of doing work they HAVE to do just to pay the bills. On this week’s episode, Kyle Kinane shares insights into his comedy career and spending habits that have kept him solvent and relatively stress-free during the quarantine. While many artists are scrambling to earn while clubs are closed, Kyle maintains his creative freedom and sense of calm, partially because he never bought a Porsche.  Kyle Kinane is a nationally-headlining comedian whose TV appearances include Comedy Central’s Drunk History, This is Not Happening, and Comedy Central Presents half-hour comedy special. He has also performed live on the TV on Conan and The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, among many others. As an actor, he plays a coke-head ex-boyfriend in Judd Apatow’s Netflix series, Love and also appears on TruTV's Those Who Can’t. His new album Trampoline in a Ditch is very funny and is available here.
