The Business of Writing a Joke With Comedy Writer Guy Nicolucci

Guy Nicolucci is a longtime comedy writer, producer and, most currently, professor. He joins this episode of the “Grow Wire Podcast” to dive into his history of comedy writing for the likes of Craig Kilborn, Jon Stewart and Conan O’Brien (to name a few). Nicolucci starts off by recalling his first moments with comedy, which often got him into trouble as a high school student (2:50). He then begins his comedy-writing journey, starting with his time writing for Craig Kilborn on “The Daily Show” (8:59). He describes his knack for finding the punchline (12:02) before diving into his years working alongside Jon Stewart (14:36) and Conan O’Brien (16:09). Nicolucci walks us through a day in the life of writing for O’Brien (17:15) and what made him different from other comedians (23:43). He reminisces on hilarious moments from Comedy Central roasts (29:06), laughing through memories of President Barack Obama, Jewel and Mike Tyson (36:24). He reveals one of the biggest lessons learned in his career (39:42) as well as his favorite comedians of all time (40:49) and concludes by giving all of us a lesson in joke-writing (44:19). Tune in for all of this and more!
