Beginnings episode 118: Writers Panel w/Jackson Publick, J.R. Havlan, Annie Mebane and Opus Moreschi
Sep 19, 2013
The juggernaut of melancholy keeps rolling along, friends, on
the latest live episode of Beginnings. A while ago, I had
an idea to rip off the Nerdist Writers Panel and do the
same kind of thing but with that patented Beginnings spin,
and what a fun/sad time we had at UCB East earlier this month! (Sad
in a good way though, folks! You know, that poignant, meaningful
sadness, not the pitiful kind!)
Annie Mebane from The Michael J. Fox Show/Community/Happy Endings joined us, as did J.R. Havlan of The Daily Show, and Jackson Publick, the co-creator of The Venture Bros. And Opus Moreschi, the head writer of The Colbert Report, sat in as my guest co-host. That show was frakking stacked! We chatted about 7th grade acid trips, a horrifying Wolverine/clown hybrid, Buddy Rich's drumstick, shitty underwear, divorce, a bloodsoaked sock and enjoyed a lot of uncomfortable sadness as well as a final moment of joy.
