Andrew Santino sits down with comedian and writer Tommy Brennan for a hilarious conversation about stand-up, writing for television, and the strange path that leads comics from late-night sets to the writers’ room. They talk about Tommy’s time writing at Saturday Night Live, learning how to craft jokes that actually land, and the difference between writing for yourself versus writing for someone else. It’s a great comic-to-comic breakdown of how the industry really works. In this episode: • What it’s like writing for SNL • How stand-up makes you a better comedy writer • Santino and Tommy talk bombing, rewriting jokes, and finding your voice • Behind-the-scenes comedy writing stories
