Marriage Taught Billy Gardell to Shut Up

The comedian and actor, whose parents divorced when he was young, revealed he lived with many stepfathers, and they moved around a lot, making him anxious. He discovered his sense of humor at home, which helped him control his anxiety and to fit in at school.
