Playwright, comedian, writer, producer. Scott Carter is all of those things plus Executive Producer of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher”. He’s also one of the smartest guys I’ve ever hung out with. You’ll love this peek behind the curtain of my favorite show and gain insight into what it takes to make a great live show tick week after week. He’s the show runner supreme.

A great storyteller, Scott mixes fun facts into his tales, and delivers them in a riveting fashion. Big thanks to Michael Addis for interviewing Scott for the podcast.

His play, “The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens and Count Leo Tolstoy: Discord” is a hit at the Geffen Playhouse. Click tickets. Running now through Dec. 21st, 2014. Run don’t walk

Writer/Director Theodore Melfi has been making commercials and indie films for a decade. So when he nabbed Bill Murray for the starring role of his script, he was more than ready to deliver. Listen to this great casting tale, his hanging with Jack Nicholson, and how his real life inspired his script that he hand-wrote in four weeks. I’ve known Theodore since he started directing, and he’s as genuine a man as he is talented.

“St. Vincent” opens in LA & NYC on October 10th, then goes wide October 24th. Watch the trailer and go opening night in your city! Take the family!

He’s launched his own production company, Brother. Check it out. Here’s one of many spot I love from Ted:
