On this week’s Naked Lunch podcast, co-hosts Phil Rosenthal and David Wild welcome Larry Charles, who wrote and directed for such series as Seinfeld and Cheers, directed Curb Your Enthusiasm for over seven years, and produced them, as well as Mad About You, and a great many others – as well as directed the movie Borat. As Phil and David write, “The legendary writer and director Larry Charles comes to Naked Lunch to discuss his brilliant career and his remarkable new book Comedy Samurai: Forty Years of Blood, Guts, and Laughter," a rollicking journey through modern American Comedy. Hear great stories about Sacha Baron Cohen, Larry David, Bob Dylan and so many more.
One oddity: this conversation took place with a camera recording it, but for the first 27 minutes there are just graphic stills on screen. But stick around, because around the 27-minute mark, the camera kicks in, and you see everyone talking around the table the rest of the way.
