No. 229 - Wayne Federman Talks Stand - Up History and More

We talked to comedian, actor, and writer, Wayne Federman! You've seen him in Curb Your Enthusiasm, Living Single, 40-Year Old Virgin, and tons of other shows and movies! Wayne talks to Jason about a ton of things including starting out as a performer, doing ventriloquism as a teenager, studying acting with Stella Adler, what he learned from Garry Shandling, his favorite acting role and working in TV and film, Don Rickles, being the head monologue writer for the first season of Late Night with Jimmy Fallon. and his book The History of Stand-Up. This engrossing chat was a fun one and a must listen. Buy his book, The History of Stand-Up: From Mark Twain to Dave Chappelle, on Amazon.
