Episode Notes
Wyatt Cenac knows funny. You may have heard him in everything from BoJack Horseman to Archer and Bob’s Burgers. He was a writer for King of the Hill and a correspondent on The Daily Show With Jon Stewart, and he starred in Barry Jenkins’ first full-length feature film, Medicine for Melancholy. Cenac has also starred in his own stand-up specials, one of which, Brooklyn, was nominated in 2015 for the Grammy Award for best comedy album. Like we said, this man knows his funny.
