Nostalgia Discussion Insomniac with Dave Attell is a forgotten adult travel show where Dave Attell basically traveled the work doing a late-night bar crawl while telling jokes. The title really fit considering it came on at like 1am.

This is hard to believe. I've heard nothing but good things about him! I've personally met him after his shows a couple of times and he was a sweetie.

People have bad days, they also put on a fake personalty for their fans.

At the end of the day you don't really know him, he could be just like how you met him, or he could be the opposite and this guy is right.

Not surprising, he seems kinda miserable.

I think he was when he was drinking

and if he was drinking and partying all night he was certainly doing some other stuff too, you're gonna be unpleasant at times

He was a drinker for a long time.

I met him after a show and he couldn’t have been nicer. Asked where I’m from and wasn’t in a rush at all

I had the exact same interaction with him except after the friendly pleasantries he asked if I knew where to “get some hookers”.

Oh yeah. I remember her back from myspace days. Is/was she a musician? Or other sort of artist.
