"hi. i made a new special. it was filmed by me, alone, without a crew or an audience, over the course of the past year. it is almost finished. i hope you like it." - @boburnham, April 28, 2021 When musical comedian Bo Burnham sent this tweet, the Covid-19 lockdowns had been in place for over a year. The world was scared, traumatized, uncertain, and fed up. Rather than keep quiet at a time like this, Bo decided that he would film himself telling some jokes and singing some songs.

"I don't know what it's going to be like to write this book. I don't know what it's going to be like to read it. I know that it's going to be weird. I know that it's going to change me. And I know that I want to do this so I can find out how it ends. January 1st, 2022 . Who am I? You can call me Jay. I'm a 27 year old White guy from Canada, and I've watched Bo Burnham: Inside on Netflix twenty-six times. Once for each letter of the alphabet. That might seem strange, but there's a reason. When Inside came out on May 30th last year, I fell under its spell at once. I was already primed to notice its subtle clues, and follow its hidden directions. I was prepared to embark on a secret journey of healing, and learning, and self-discovery. Now I'm ready to tell you all about it. And I'm ready to go a little crazy in the process." This revised edition of Bo Burnham: Joking at a Time Like This contains a new Interlude chapter about The Inside Outtakes , and a sneak preview of Volume 2: This Isn't About You .
