It's still August, so we're doing a two pod series about our real jobs. On Part 1, we talk to Mike about his career as a television (and some movie) comedy writer. We find out what writers rooms are like, what Mike's favorite comedies are, what a writing team is like, his script about Ben Simmons, how you get better as a comedy writer and a ton more. Part 2, about Spike's job will be this weekend.
