Writer and comedian Josh Gondelman (Last Week Tonight, Billy on the Street, New Yorker) traveled all the way from New York to be on my podcast and while he was in town he stopped by the Emmys. Or maybe I have that backwards. Regardless, he was in town and we talked about all sorts of stuff including his experience writing on Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, You Blew It! An Awkward Look at the Many Ways In Which You’ve Already Ruined Your Life (his new book with Joe Berkowitz), discovering comedy, writing the @modernseinfeld Twitter account, why Twitter is better than OK Cupid, the fragility of adult friendships, job searches, elementary school Spanish, ramadas, porches and so much more. We also answered your questions and did a round of Just Me Or Everyone.

While I'm late in finishing this episode due to being so tired
from work this week, I enjoyed this episode! Josh seems like a really nice guy.
I also love that he's given an older dog a home. I'm surprised that he doesn't have a Boston accent. I've enjoyed John Oliver's show when I've had a chance to watch
it, but I need to watch it more. I do wish this interview had happened after the
scuffle with Donald Trump and John Oliver.:) I
love how the JMOEs bring out interesting/quirky stories. I totally understand what they were talking about regarding
the newspaper seeming like a one person thing. It's a strange/unreasonable concept,
but I feel the same way about newspapers for some reason. If I take a shower at night, it wakes me up,
so I need to shower in the morning or afternoon, though I prefer a morning shower.
