Summary
Late-night comedy isn't dying. It's being rebuilt outside the corporate system. In this episode, Jeff sits down with comedian Ben Gleib, host and creator of "Good Night with Ben Gleib," the first creator-owned late-night talk show built for YouTube, to talk about comedy, resilience, and why laughter might be the most underrated health practice there is. They get into: How staying present defuses pressure, why owning your mistakes onstage builds trust, and what it takes to bring people together in a divided, doom-scrolling world. Why comedy is a real tool for resilience and lower stress How to stay calm when a moment goes sideways Rebuilding late night without a network or a corporate owner Cold plunges, Wim Hof, and reframing discomfort Speaking honestly without just preaching to the choir This episode is for anyone who loves comedy, thinks about resilience and presence, or wants a smarter take on how late night and online community are changing.
