Jay Mohr’s primary complaint here seems to be that he couldn’t get many sketches on the air, but if the writing in this book is any indication…I mean, I know writing a book and writing …

The book came out in ’02, so it’s even funnier now to read through the list of dot-bombs…although I still kind of miss Kozmo and think he was unnecessarily mean to it.   I mean, …
