Laugh More Everyday: Three Comedy Writers on Finding the Hilarity in Daily Life

From bird behavior to the absurdities of LinkedIn leadership, humor reveals itself in the details of everyday life. Award‑winning comedians and writers Chris Duffy, Carley Moseley, and Asher Perlman explore how observation, curiosity, and wit shape the way we think, create, and connect. Drawing on work across television, publishing, and performance, the evening reflects a distinctly contemporary approach to comedy, grounded in attention, perspective, and the unexpected. Chris Duffy is the host of the acclaimed podcast How to Be a Better Human and author of Humor Me (Doubleday, 2026), exploring laughter’s role in everyday life. Carley Moseley is an Emmy and Writers Guild Award–nominated comedian and Second City alum, most recently a writer and performer for The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Asher Perlman is a Peabody, Emmy, and WGA Award‑winning writer and cartoonist whose work spans The Late Show, The New Yorker, and live performance. Each artist performs before joining a conversation and audience Q&A exploring their creative process, the distinctions between writing for page and screen, and the inspirations that shape their comedy.
