Norman and I welcome Sean Owens, the head writer of Pride Inside, the sketch comedy show streaming from June 25 until the 27th. Sean talks about working with Killing My Lobster, the company that is in it’s 24th year of providing original sketch comedy, his studies at SF State and learning from the great Bill Peters (and his teaching about “the moment between the lines”), Sean’s upbringing and where he sees himself in the future.
