#minnesota comedian
Holy shit, this is a bad day for big guys.
When I moved from southern Michigan to Minnesota 15 years ago I knew nothing about the state. There was a huge cultural difference.
I found a video of Minnesota comedian Louie Anderson’s one-man show at Minneapolis’ Guthrie Theater. It made me laugh harder than I had for years, and gave me insight into my new home. I watch this every Thanksgiving.
He also created an award-winning cartoon series, Life With Louie, based on his standup. He did the intros, the voice of Louie the kid and Louie’s Dad.
He played Christine Baskets in the series Baskets.
Damn, I’m so sorry, Louie. I’m going to miss you. But thank you for helping me adjust to my new environment using laughter.
