Solo begins with a declaration: "I turned 30 and it occurred to me that I don't have any friends." Over the next 60 minutes, Gabe attempts to explain why, analyzing the "30-year old bros" in his life, high-school relationships, his first drunken attempt at stand-up, summers at a camp for children with chronic illnesses, and many more stories of young love, friendship, heartbreak, and Taco Bell.
Solo is produced by Caitlin Cook and Mahmood Aladadweh, Ophira Eisenberg serves as Creative Consultant, and Greg Walloch is story producer.
