Thank you so much for downloading this episode of So What Do You Really Do? The podcast where I speak to artists and entertainers about their day jobs and on the podcast today is from The Daily Show, comedian, satirist, actor, playwright, and really nice guy, Lewis Black. He could not have been nicer in our interview. This is another interview that came up about because of my work with DigBoston.
If you’re in the New England area, get tickets to see him on March, 11th at the Emerson Colonial Theater or see him on his Off the Rails tour in a city near you.
This episode is brought to you by Word of the Day with Comedians, a new short-form audio and video podcast available on YouTube, iTunes, & Spotify. It’s the funniest way to expand your vocabulary.
Lewis and I talked about the war in Ukraine and his Jewish/Russian family heritage, his writing process, how the producers of The Daily Show didn’t think he was funny, his work as the new chairman of the board of the Kurt Vonnegut Museum and Library, our mutual love for Lucille Ball and Desi Arnez, and more.
This conversation came about from an interview in DigBoston.

Music in this episode was provided by my good friends Scott Lester & The Dirty Dottys.
