Our guest this week is Hugh Fink, Executive Producer of the Writers Guild Awards, stand-up comedian, and Emmy-winning SNL writer. Hugh takes us behind the scenes of producing award shows, sharing insights on navigating comedy in front of live audiences, the challenges of booking the right hosts, and why he believes the Writers Guild Awards is “the most entertaining awards show not on television.” He also reflects on his early days writing for the ESPY Awards, working alongside iconic comedians like David Spade and Dennis Miller, and some thoughts on SNL at 50.
