It's Fred Armisen… he was pen pals with John Waters when he was a teenager!

How did a drumming-obsessed New Yorker turn a stint playing punk music into one of comedy’s most eclectic careers? Stacey welcomes Fred Armisen to the show to discuss his (almost) unbelievable artistic trajectory, from Chicago-drummer to landing Saturday Night Live to co-creating award-winning series like Documentary Now! and Portlandia. Fred also reveals the wisdom he’s gleaned from John Waters and Lorne Michaels; what it's like to be directed by Tim Burton and play with Devo; and the grief he didn’t expect to feel upon leaving SNL in 2013 after 11 seasons.
