Episode 19: David Javerbaum

Don't let the earnest headshot fool you - David Javerbaum (pr. "Javerbaum") is the author of the hilariously funny book, "The Last Testament: A Memoir by God". He also wrote the equally entertaining "What to Expect When You're Expected: A Fetus's Guide to the First Three Trimesters". He also wrote the lyrics for John Waters' "Cry Baby" on Broadway. And, let's see... oh yeah! He was also the Head Writer and Executive Producer of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Not bad for a kid who grew up in a perfectly comfortable home and eventually went to Harvard. This episode is actually more about writing books than writing for television but it's definitely still about writing comedy, and the best part is it's a laugh a minute... and-a-half. (I timed it). Take it away, listener!
