Send us Fan MailThank you for tuning in!  I am so happy to share this episode with the wonderful listeners of the show!  On this episode, I welcome author, professor, and media expert Saul Austerlitz!  Saul is the author of several excellent titles including:  Another Fine Mess: A History of American Film Comedy, Sitcom: A History in 24 Episodes from I Love Lucy to Community, and Generation Friends: An Inside Look at the Show That Defined a Television Era.  His work has also appeared in well-known publications such as the Boston Globe, the New York Times, New York Magazine, and Rollingstone to name just a few.  Coming out on August 22nd, 2023 is Saul's latest book:  Kind of a Big Deal - How Anchorman stayed classy and became the most iconic comedy of the twenty-first century.  I was fortunate enough to be given a copy of the book so that I could read it prior to our interview and I absolutely loved it!  Saul's writing is so easy to digest and absorb.  I learned so much about the creation of the film, what went on behind-the-scenes, and so much more!  It's a must read for any comedy lover!  You can learn more about his latest book and Saul's career on his website:  https://www.saulausterlitz.com/A huge thanks to Saul Austerlitz and Hannah Poole for making this happen! Support your skin and support the show!By entering the discount code thepcretrospective25 at checkout you get 25% off your skincare order!
