We are what we read, but are we also what we watch? In this week's episode of You Are What You Read, we sit down with Gary Janetti, the Emmy award-winning television writer/producer of Will and Grace, Family Guy, and more. He is The New York Times bestselling author of Do You Mind If I Cancel? (Things That Still Annoy Me) and Start Without Me (I'll Be There in a Minute).
Gary kicks off the You Are What You Read podcast this year with a lot of laughs, wit and wisdom to hold with you in 2024. From a young boy dazzled by The Carol Burnett Show to working as a bellman at the Paramount Hotel hoping to be plucked by a famous Hollywood star, Gary shares with us the experiences and television shows that catapulted him to stardom.
Join Gary on the Blueberry Muffin tour in Austin, Fort Lauderdale, San Francisco, Seattle, Boston, New York City, and Los Angeles in 2024. If you can’t see Gary on tour, be sure to follow him on Instagram @garyjanetti for daily bits of humor that will keep you laughing in the new year.
