What’s it like to write for the most popular late-night comedy shows in America when the news already feels like a satire of itself? Second City’s Kelly Leonard sits down with Chicago-bred talent who have written for the hottest shows in late night: Ali Barthwell (Last Week Tonight with John Oliver), Peter Grosz (The Colbert Report, Late Night with Seth Meyers), and John Lutz (Late Night with Seth Meyers, Saturday Night Live). They will discuss the power of creating comedy in a time of social and cultural crisis.
