Welcome to Men in Blazers pod special. Our guest today is Hollywood's equivalent of a five-tool player. He's a producer, composer, screenwriter and he's even mastered the ancient art of the novel.

His adaptation of Fargo for FX has earned him an Emmy for Best Mini Series and if you've not seen it you can binge watch all 10 episodes of the second series June 4th, beginning 10am on FX.
