Any Time with Vin Forte

Brian Stack is a current writer/performer for 'The Late Show with Stephen Colbert' and was previously a writer/performer for 18 years on 'Late Night with Conan O'Brien/The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien/Conan.' This episode (after explaining why Brian is the nicest man in the world for recording a second conversation after the original got destroyed due to technical issues) we discuss his time at Late Night, the shared sensibilities of the Conan writers room, catching lightning in a bottle and taking ideas to their logical conclusions, doing sketches for the studio crowd vs the home audience, the transition from NYC to LA and back again, writing for a more political leaning show like Colbert, and much more!
