David Wild, Writer and Producer, joins Susan and Ben to discuss This is 40, a 2012 comedy. David shares what it’s like having a career as a Peabody and Emmy award-winning writer and producer. He discusses falling into a career as a TV writer while working for Rolling Stone, getting a last minute call to help LL Cool J at the US National Tree Lighting Ceremony, and starting the Naked Lunch podcast with Phil Rosenthal. He also discusses asking Trevor Noah to present at the Grammys while they sat next to each other on a plane and provides behind the scenes insight into his time on the set of This is 40. David plays our “Comedy Chops” game.
