Gasping for Airtime by Jay Mohr
In Gasping for Airtime, Jay offers an intimate account of the inner workings of Saturday Night Live. He also dishes on the guest hosts (John Travolta, Shannen Doherty, Charles Barkley), the musical guests (Kurt Cobain, Steven Tyler, Eric Clapton), and of course his SNL castmates (Chris Farley, Adam Sandler, Mike Myers, and David Spade). Refreshingly honest and laugh-out-loud funny, this book will appeal both to fans of Jay Mohr and to devotees of Saturday Night Live.
Jay Mohr first received audience notice with his impressions of Christopher Walken, Dick Vitale, and Sean Penn on Saturday Night Live. Soon after that, he landed his breakthrough film role as a rival sports agent in the blockbuster hit Jerry Maguire, following that up in a touching good-guy role in Picture Perfect. Other film credits include Playing by Heart, Suicide Kings, Seeing Other People, Even Money, The Groomsmen, Pay It Forward, Street Kings, and Go, as well as comedic leads in King's Ransom and Are We There Yet? On television, Mohr created, executive produced, and hosted Last Comic Standing. He won the Favorite New TV Comedy Award at the 35th People's Choice Awards. He is also well known for his sports work as host of FOX Sports Net's NFL This Morning and narrator of the award-winning Beyond the Glory. Additionally, Mohr executive produced and hosted the ESPN series Mohr Sports, an original weekly comedy, music, and sports talk hour. He continues to sell out venues across the country with his standup routine.
