Judd Apatow | Hold On To That Authenticity | Mike Birbiglia’s Working It Out Podcast

Love these laid conversations especially with filmmakers. As someone whose had different roles behind the camera it’s interesting how Judd views creativity or I guess originality in this space. How the questions he asks for himself and the audience has changed and how hits like Bridesmaids don’t just come together, it’s months and years of working with a script, living with characters. Thanks guys!!

Speak for yourself 🤣 John Mulaney is someone who has inspired me to pursue comedy

Judd Appetite

Best interview I've seen so far on your show Mike. Proves it's not all gnashing of teeth on the other side of the wall 🙂

Apatow, Seinfeld, and Shandling always leave me feeling more spacious. They're like enlightened cynics, approximately.

Prayer goes way down to the deep Center. There is no up but death.

Young people are just as proud of their ignorance as maga is. They're just willfully ignorant about different things.

I love this. It makes sense why I tend to gravitate to Judd Apatow projects. I relate to the dad putting a book about divorce in front of him. My dad told me he was gay when I was 7 by showing me Too Wong Fu : Thanks For Everything… Oh parents…

I’m just here for the Falcon Crest shoutout
