Hear David Letterman's Joke Writer

In this interview, my friend Chumworth talks about his job as a fax joke writer for David Letterman. It's a great interview, and if you listen closely you'll hear him tell how he got his start. The Jay Leno joke writer he mentions is me!

Hear Chumworth Speak!:
"Jerry Lewis is big in France and - apparently - I’m big in … Sweden! Well, OK, I’m not but David Letterman sure is! A very nice lady named Christina from Sweden recently asked me if she could interview me for a podcast she does about pop culture called Voccine. She wanted to learn about the fascinating world of freelance monologue joke writing."
