The 5 questions I ask in this episode:

  1. How did doing standup comedy at the start of your career influence the types of films and shows you’ve produced since?
  2. You’ve worked on several projects with Judd Apatow and Melissa McCarthy. Why do you think these collaborations were so successful, while others might have fell short?
  3. What are the unique challenges of producing a TV series such as Welcome to Flatch compared to a streaming service or theatrical distribution?
  4. What was your inspiration for Welcome to Flatch and what aspects of the series most reflect our culture?
