My guest Barry Dougherty has been the head writer for the Friars Club’s Roasts of Betty White, Quentin Tarantino, Jack Black, and Boomer Esiason and Testimonial Dinners for Tom Cruise, Larry King, and Don Rickles. So I want to know the secrets to being funny and at the end of this Podcast I get Barry to tell his favorite joke, a warning it does involve the Pope and a four letter word.
