Summary

Ali Leroi sits down with us today to discuss his history as a stand-up comedian in Chicago working with Bernie Mac and other greats and then his later shift to a whole new career as a writer, show-runner and one of the most sought after developers of comedy television and movies today. From his days working on the Chris Rock Show to being a show runner on Everybody Hates Chris and Are We There Yet and more, Ali takes us through how a show is pitched to a room of executives who don't understand comedy and don't know how to market your idea.
