Summary
A five-time Emmy winning SNL comedy writer/producer, joins a four-time #1 NYT bestselling author, a three-time highest-rated national progressive radio host, a two-time Grammy winning artist, and a former US Senator. So, it gets a little crowded in the booth when Al talks public policy and sometimes political comedy with notable guests. Think “The Daily” without the resources of the NYTimes. Follow The Al Franken podcast wherever you get your podcasts or you can listen ad-free on the Amazon Music or Wondery app. https://bit.ly/TAFP-BW
