Jeffrey Gurian

Comedy writer, stand-up comic, author, and Friar Jeffrey Gurian joins Joe Sibilia to discuss how he went from practicing dentistry to writing for some of the biggest names in the history of comedy, including Joan Rivers, Rodney Dangerfield, and Jerry Lewis. Plus, Jeffrey talks about working on the Friars Club roasts as a writer, serving as the liaison to "Saturday Night Live" for the 1990 Friars Club roast of Chevy Chase, his friendship with the late Phil Hartman, discovering Emmy Award-winner Peter Dinklage, collaborating with John Mulaney and Nick Kroll, and gaining entree into Billy Crystal's private party the night the Friars Club named a room in his honor.
