Durst on his way to St. Paul

by Brian McKim & Traci Skene on August 29th, 2008

Not Dan St. Paul, but St. Paul, MN, the city that will host the Republican National Convention. Quite the schedule– Durst just finished up four days of wreaking havoc in Denver at the Democratic National Convention.

His interview with the Sun-Times earlier this month demonstrates his superb ability to give good interview. He is always prepared with a pithy quote, some bio info, an insight into standup and, of course, a zinger or two.

Durst reads at least three newspapers a day and promotes his stand-up as “comedy for people who read or know someone that does.”

Electing to do topical humor, he admits that he’s obliged to do all that homework. “If something happens and I don’t talk about it, I’m bogus,” said Durst. “Sometimes I don’t even have to have a joke. All I have to do is acknowledge that it went on.”
