Al Madrigal
I've always liked and appreciated storytellers like Garry Shandling and Bill Cosby - more long-form comedy. So starting in San Francisco, watching all these great comics - Patton Oswalt, Dave Chappelle - you get to see them a bunch, and you go, 'Wow, this is where I need to be.'
5
Bill Mauldin
Patton was living in the Dark Ages. Soldiers were peasants to him. I didn't like that attitude.
6
Michael Showalter
There are comedians that I like. I think a lot of it, you just figure out on your own. It's definitely one of those things that you get good at by doing it a lot. But I like Jim Gaffigan. Patton Oswalt. Janeane Garofalo.

Joel Siegel
There are scenes here and effects here that would make George S. Patton wince.
