BACKFENCE Unghinged Ep 27: Joe Guppy

Episode 27: Joe Guppy You’re about to hear a story about the ups, downs, free lunches, and unexpected turns of events that one deals with when chasing dreams in the city of dreams aka, Los Angeles— from writer Joe Guppy.  Joe Guppy is an Emmy award-winning comedy writer, retired therapist, script doctor, improviser, best-selling memoirist, and writing/creativity coach. His career in theater and television goes back to Seattle in the 1980s—careens into Los Angeles in the early 90’s—and continues on back in Seattle to this very day where he is a comedy legend.  BACKFENCE Unhinged is a unique and delightful twist on the storytelling podcast where hosts Andrew and Frayn invite a storyteller on to share an unhinged true story. Then comes the second unhinged part – they dig in and ask questions to get into the behind-the-scenes dirt —  finding intersections with some of their own personal anecdotes. This episode was edited and produced by Julia Oppenheimer. With music created by musician and frontman for Lost Lander, Matt Sheehy. Frayn Masters is executive producer. Frayn Masters & Andrew Dickson are co-hosts and co-creators. The show was recorded at XRAY.fm — find them online or 91.1 or 107.1.
