As a girl who grew up watching SNL with her dad I have to say this was such an interesting converstaion! Art's story is one i will never forget.

A little bio on Art

"While working at HBO in the late 80's, I pitched the idea of an all comedy channel, but was told it was a stupid idea. When the Chairman of HBO accidentally heard of my idea, it was a go. My book, Constant Comedy: How I Started Comedy Central and Lost My Sense of Humor is my recently published memoir (Ulysses Press, Sept 2020) that tells the amazing story of how it all happened, from idea, through the Comedy Central's first six years where I was a senior programming and marketing executive."
