Comedy Writing in an Outrage Era | guest Steve Kaplan

Steve Kaplan, Hollywood's most sought-after expert in comedy writing, joins us to talk about how comedy writers can succeed, what has changed in today's smartphone era, and the effects of what he calls the "outrage industry." Steve weighs in on the recent Rosanne controversy, how George Carlin would react today, and why comedy feature films are harder to market. Steve wrote the quintessential book about comedy writing, 'The Hidden Tools of Comedy.'
