112 - A Brush With (the Elbow of) Greatness (w/ Peter Tolan)

Larry Sanders executive producer Peter Tolan returns for a second week! He tells behind-the-scenes stories to Jason and Max, including some of Rip Torn’s bad behavior. He also gives never before heard details about Life Everlast Inc., his never-produced post-Sanders collaboration with Garry Shandling. Then Jason and Max break down A Brush With (the Elbow of) Greatness. They both agree it's a slightly underwhelming episode but it features an episode-stealing performance by David Paymer. Finally, Jason and Max reflect on the season as a whole on the last-produced podcast of Season One.

Peter Tolan is a director, screenwriter, and producer. He is a two-time Emmy Award winner and an executive producer for The Larry Sanders Show. He co-wrote the screenplays for many films, including Analyze This, Analyze That, and What Planet Are You From?  He also co-created Rescue Me with Dennis Leary and was the executive producer for the recent revival of Mad About You.
