Summary

"Government Cheese" is the newest comedy series from Apple TV+, which just had its first four-episode premiere today. Starring and executive produced by David Oyelowo, the series follows the Chambers family, an African American family living in the San Fernando Valley in 1968, and the chaos that arises after burglar-turned-inventor Hampton Chambers returns from prison. Oyelowo and series co-creator/writer Aeysha Carr were both kind enough to spend some time speaking with us about their experience making the series, which you can listen to below.
