Movies struggle to capture what’s shaggy and bitter about writers without falling into the trap of one-liners.

The LP is pithy in the way that Phoebe Bridgers or Jenny Lewis write one-liners, but it’s an unexpectedly tender songwriter record from one of the sharpest, most self-aware minds in stand-up.

Dubois is a quiet guy but he is becoming a bit of a character with his one-liners.

Johnny would spew a few vaguely racist one-liners and get drunk on Coors Banquet, but instead of digging in, the years changed him.

So it’s whether I can take the one-liner absurdity and blend it with real truths about my own life.
