==== 2010s ==== In 2012, Cook caused a minor controversy when a joke he made in a comedy club about the [[2012 Aurora, Colorado shooting]] was recorded and made the headlines.{{blockquote|So I heard that the guy came into the theater about 25 minutes into the movie. And I don't know if you've seen the movie, but the movie is pretty much a piece of crap⦠Yeah, spoiler alert. And I know that if none of that would have happened, I'm pretty sure that somebody in that theater, about 25 minutes in, realizing it was a piece of crap, probably was like, 'Ugh fucking shoot me.'|Dane Cook|title=|source=}}He later apologized on Twitter: "I am devastated by the recent tragedy in Colorado & did not mean to make light of what happened. I made a bad judgment call with my material last night & regret making a joke at such a sensitive time. My heart goes out to all of the families & friends of the victims."<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.ew.com/article/2012/07/27/dane-cook-aurora-shooting-joke|title=Dane Cook jokes about Aurora shooting|work=Entertainment Weekly's EW.com|access-date=22 August 2015|first=Jeff|last=Labrecque|date=July 27, 2012}}</ref><ref>{{cite AV media|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZATGRjj1G4| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120728000907/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KZATGRjj1G4&gl=US&hl=en| archive-date=2012-07-28|title=Dane Cook Laugh Factory Jokes about Aurora Colorado Shooting Dark Knight Murders|date=27 July 2012|work=YouTube|access-date=22 August 2015}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://gawker.com/5929595/dane-cook-jokes-about-aurora-shooting-on-stage-less-than-one-week-after-massacre |title=Dane Cook Jokes About Aurora Shooting on Stage Less Than One Week After Massacre |author=Neetzan Zimmerman |publisher=Gawker Media |work=Gawker |access-date=22 August 2015 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150921203742/http://gawker.com/5929595/dane-cook-jokes-about-aurora-shooting-on-stage-less-than-one-week-after-massacre |archive-date=21 September 2015 }}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/27/dane-cook-aurora-shooting-joke_n_1710221.html|title=Dane Cook Tells Theater Shooting Joke|work=The Huffington Post|access-date=22 August 2015|date=July 27, 2012}}</ref> In 2014, [[Showtime (TV network)|Showtime]] aired Cook's ''Troublemaker'' special.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.gq.com/blogs/the-feed/2014/10/dane-cook-adresses-haters.html|title=The GQ+A: Dane Cook on His Haters, Regrets, and What Therapy Taught Him|author=Lauren Bans|work=GQ|date=16 October 2014|access-date=22 August 2015}}</ref> In September 2016 Cook headlined with [[Sebastian Maniscalco]] at the Oddball Comedy Festival in [[Dallas]], [[Texas]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.dmagazine.com/arts-entertainment/2016/07/dallas-gets-dane-cook-on-the-oddball-comedy-tour/|title=Dallas Gets Dane Cook on the Oddball Comedy Tour|date=2016-07-21|website=D Magazine|language=en|access-date=2019-03-13}}</ref> and the Oddball Comedy & Curiosity Festival in [[Irvine, California|Irvine]], [[California]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.ocregister.com/articles/comedy-730319-oddball-new.html|title=The Oddball comedy fest returns to Irvine with Dane Cook, Nick Swardson and more this week|date=2016-09-28|website=Orange County Register|language=en-US|access-date=2019-03-13}}</ref> He also toured [[Canada]] in November at the annual "[[Just for Laughs|Just For Laughs]]" comedy festival.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://ottawacitizen.com/entertainment/local-arts/dane-cook-im-like-the-taylor-swift-of-comedy|title=Dane Cook: 'I'm like the Taylor Swift of comedy'|last1=Saxberg|first1=Lynn|website=Ottawa Citizen Updated|date=2016-11-01|language=en|access-date=2019-03-13}}</ref> In May 2018 he performed at [[Hard Rock Rocksino Northfield Park|Hard Rock Rocksino]] in Northfield Park, [[Ohio]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.news-herald.com/news/ohio/back-on-the-road-comic-dane-cook-has-back-to/article_8dde52fa-4ccd-58a4-98f6-30721be743a2.html|title=Back on the road, comic Dane Cook has back-to-back Rocksino shows|last=Mona|first=Breanna|website=The News-Herald|language=en|access-date=2019-03-13|archive-date=2019-02-27|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190227182216/https://www.news-herald.com/news/ohio/back-on-the-road-comic-dane-cook-has-back-to/article_8dde52fa-4ccd-58a4-98f6-30721be743a2.html|url-status=dead}}</ref> At the end of 2018 Cook announced the "Tell It Like It is" Tour, his first full-scale stand-up tour since "Under Oath" in 2013.
