“Tense, heartbreaking, and often darkly comedic . . . [H]earing about Mike Gillis’s Life each week is like watching a never-ending absurdist play written by one of the masters.”

“Among our nation’s great moronically lived lives, it is perhaps once a generation that a presence so uniquely incompetent appears in our midst. Mike Gillis is the real deal. He has produced the life of a complete buffoon.”
