Since I was ten years old, I’ve been obsessed with Judd Apatow. You know him from Freaks and Geeks, HBO’s Girls, Pineapple Express, Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby, Anchorman: The Legendy of Ron Burgundy, The Larry Sanders Show, Funny People, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Walk Hard, Netflix’s Love, The 40 Year Old Virgin, Superbad, Bridesmaids, and endless more pieces of entertainment. What is that magic, that special sauce behind Apatow’s work? I set out to find the answers on this podcast! On this show, I rewatch films and episodes of television from the Apatow Universe with friends, as well as interview people who worked with Judd!If you have a Judd Apatow-related story or have a way to connect me with someone who has worked with him, please email me at apatownerd@gmail.com
