Artie Lange is a wild man, man. I mean, from being late 18 times to his own living room podcast to talks about a bidding war to fix his nose, the guy is just a non-stop thrill ride. He's got these amazing stories, like accidentally robbing a bank at 17 -- he thought it was a joke, but the bank didn't see it that way. Or that time when he, Mitch Hedberg and Greg Gerardo sat at the Chelsea Square Diner talking about drugs, man, it's like the trinity of comedy chaos. He's been through some heavy stuff, with his struggles with drugs, a stint in the LA County jail, and let's not forget that beaten up nose. And yet, he survived it all. It's uncanny.

He's also had a memorable run with Anthony Cumia on his radio show. Cumia has his own stories about Artie, about how Artie's unpredictable nature could make things difficult. But at the end of the day, it's undeniable that Artie has this unique capability of turning even his darkest times into humorous moments. It's intense, it's a bit scary, but it's Artie Lange, man.
