In this episode, comedy writer + producer Jon Friedman joins Hugh and Stef to talk about his hilarious work. In particular, Jon recounts the tale of “The Rejection Show“, Jon’s live comedic event where his guests—comedians, cartoonists, TV writers, etc.—explored their rejected material.

We highly recommend you check out Jon’s YouTube channel, where he regularly replaces disgraced celebrities with an adorable alien, adds horror-synth to TV favourites, and creates fantastic originals!

Jon’s also active on Twitter and Instagram
