How to Become a Comedy TV Director [Payman Benz]

Episode 62: We have been trying to get Payman Benz to be a guest on our podcast for awhile. We first heard Payman speaking at a panel at the Noho Cinefest while we were promoting our short film Papua that was playing at the same festival. Ever since then we have been wanting to talk to his great comedy director. Well, I guess the harassment finally paid off cause we finally got him! Payman has directed some of the most amazing comedy shows on TV including Key & Peele, Robbie, The Last Man on Earth, Who is America, Black Monday and Brooklyn 99. He also had some great stories about working with stand up comics, meeting Adam Sandler and advice he gives to upcoming filmmakers.
