In 1978, Shandling performed his first stand-up routine at The Comedy Store. A year later, he was one of the few performers to cross the picket line when a group of comedians organized a boycott against the Comedy Store, protesting owner Mitzi Shore's policy of not paying comedians to perform.
As a boy, Garry quickly discovered he had a preternatural grasp of wordplay and humor, which eventually led to him writing his own material and would one day push him to contact George Carlin in a Phoenix nightclub, who praised his comedic sensibilities and encouraged him to hone his craft.
