Summary

This week on Office Ladies 6.0, it's the breakdown of the pilot of the new “Office” spin-off “The Paper”! The documentary crew that followed our beloved Dunder Mifflin employees is now documenting the Toledo Truth Teller, a struggling local newspaper in Ohio. Angela and Jenna interview creators Greg Daniels and Michael Koman and we hear clips from Oscar Nuñez, Bobby Ray Shafer and Stephen Saux about what it was like to work on “The Paper”. The ladies also talk about how the show was shot on the Universal Studios’ lot and Jenna shares how the theme song came to be while Angela points out some “Office” easter eggs. So “Which paper, sir? News or toilet?” Whichever it may be, enjoy this episode!  Office Ladies Website - Submit a fan question: https://officeladies.com/submitaquestion  Follow Us on Instagram: OfficeLadiesPod Follow Us on YouTubeFollow Us on TikTok To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
