Today on The Gist, we pull an archival interview from the vault as acclaimed writer-producer Michael Schur joins the show to dissect the ethical frameworks behind The Good Place. He details how everyday anxieties, like the self-consciousness of waiting for a barista to witness your tip, evolved into a cosmic sitcom about moral scorekeeping. Schur compares his fictional afterlife to the cold reality of sabermetrics, charting how hyper-rational evaluation systems have sanded off the quirky edges of baseball to create a clinical game of three true outcomes. Finally, in the spiel, a look at the historical taxonomy of miracles reveals why public anxiety regarding the additive breakthrough of AI.

Today on The Gist, sorting through the deluge of "freedom" branding in modern politics. Then, television writer-producer Michael Schur and veteran sports columnist Joe Posnanski join the show to discuss their new book, Big Fan: Two Friends, 82,490 Miles, and the Wild, Wonderful Sports We Love. The duo breaks down the distinct differences between the community of live sports and the parasocial mirror of television fandom, how showrunners selectively weaponize casting to subvert audience expectations, and why fans willingly wager their emotional happiness on unpredictable, unscripted outcomes.

Q&A with on the Netflix series A Man on the Inside with cast Ted Danson and Mary Steenburgen and creator & showrunner Michael Schur. Moderated by Mara Webster, In Creative Company. Charles, a retired man, gets a new lease on life when he answers an ad from a private investigator and becomes a mole in a secret investigation in a nursing home.

Michael Schur is the creative force behind some of the most beloved comedies of the past two decades: The Good Place, Parks and Rec, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, and most recently, A Man On The Inside, starring Ted Danson. If Mike's face looks familiar, it might be from his scene-stealing performance as Mose Schrute on The Office, on which Mike was also a writer. Mike's shows have a distinctive signature: they don't just make you laugh – they make you think about morality and what it means to be human. Along the way, they might just make you cry. In this episode, Mike charts the songs and milestones that turned him into the writer he is today – from the Neutral Milk Hotel album that taught him to wear his heart on his sleeve, to the fender bender that sparked an existential crisis that would become The Good Place, to the Taylor Swift song that pulled him out of a creative rut during the pandemic. It's a conversation about how art teaches us to feel, and how those feelings become the stories we tell. Here are his songs. “Weird Al” Yankovic, “Eat It” The Beatles, “A Day in the Life” Indigo Girls, “Kid Fears” Neutral Milk Hotel, “Ghost” Derek and the Dominos, “Key to the Highway” Arvo Pärt, “Spiegel im Spiegel” Taylor Swift, “gold rush”

Every week, we share our thoughts on a newer entertainment property. Currently, that's season 2 of Shrinking. It wrapped up this week with a grand gesture of forgiveness befitting of the season's theme. It also added "magnanimous" to Derrick 2's character traits, to go along with "hot." We'll miss these characters a lot and are looking forward to season 3 (coming in 2026). ​Next week, we'll kick off a new series watch: A Man on the Inside, a Michael Schur-helmed show starring Ted Danson and Stephanie Beatriz. Episode 1 is called "Tinker Tailor Older Spy" and it's on Netflix. We'll be back tomorrow with our weekly roundup.

The second in our series of ScreenCraft Summit throwback interviews, running on the Script Apart feed in anticipation of December's summit – it's Mike Schur! The lauded creator of The Good Place made his first appearance on Script Apart in 2022 and, a few weeks later, spoke with Al again in front of hundreds of emerging writers to break down his wider writing process on shows like The Office, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Saturday Night Live and Parks & Recreation. This was a wonderful conversation to be a part of – Mike is as hilarious in person as you'd expect of such a magnificent comic resume, and his insights are remarkable. Strap in for some brilliant observations on the elasticity of time in great sitcoms, the importance of punching up rather than down when writing jokes and what it is that keeps him turning up in front of a blank page time and time again – his relationship with the craft of writing itself.

It's absolute anarchy this week as we manage to begin the podcast first with a debate about proper podcast nomenclature and then with Kay and Boyd fighting over what does and does not constitute and illegal review. But bear with us and we promise the podcast proper does start eventually. And a good thing too, because Aldis Hodge and Ben Watkins join us to talk Cross (22:16) — though not to get cross — and Rebecca Hall drops by to talk The Listeners (49:12). Elsewhere, we give BBC1's The Listeners the full review treatment (1:06:36), plus spice things up with Dune: Prophecy on Sky Atlantic (1:15:48) and discover whether Michael Schur and Ted Danson's new comedy, A Man On the Inside (1:31:22), can hold a candle to The Good Place. Note: time stamps are approximate as the ads throw them out, so are only meant as a guide. If you want to avoid this and would like the podcast entirely ad-free (as well as 12 hours early, with a second weekly show, and spoiler specials) then sign up to Pilot+ at empire.supportingcast.fm.

Interview with star Ted Danson and showrunner/creator Michael Schur regarding their new Netflix comedy series, A Man on the Inside. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cinexpress/support

Chris and Andy talk about some TV news, including the announcement of the ‘Beef' Season 2 cast (1:00) and the release of the trailer for the new Michael Schur show, ‘A Man on the Inside' (10:05). Then they discuss the first two episodes of ‘Special Ops: Lioness' Season 2 and whether the show is just "military porn" or something more interesting (14:11). Finally, in honor of Halloween week, they talk about some of their favorite terror TV shows, including ‘Teacup' and ‘Channel Zero,' and why horror TV is so hard to make (38:21).

Don't ask Billy NOT to go to something because he will absolutely show up, and that includes The Tony Show. Then, Mike Ryan began his dynasty in College Football 25, there's some shenanigans happening with conference realignment, and Chris struggles between his Biden and Trump impressions. Plus, it's time for the debut of "The Pitch Clock," our show's new baseball segment hosted by Jeremy. The Pitch Clock contains two parts: a nostalgic trivia game featuring the Shipping Container and an interview with a baseball expert. This week, our competitors are Jeremy, Chris Cote, and Michael Schur, and Schur sticks around as our analyst to discuss the first half of this MLB season ahead of tonight's All-Star game.

Welcome to Mockumonthary! For the whole month of May, MSPC is side-stepping The Office to break down other iconic mockumentary format TV shows. Up first, we are covering Parks and Recreation, the beloved cousin of The Office. Given it's shared DNA through showrunners Greg Daniels and Michael Schur, it's simply the natural place for us to start. We discuss first impressions we had upon its debut in 2009, how it's similar yet completely different from The Office, Michael Scott vs. Leslie Knope, favorite characters and moments, and so much more! Then we head to the conference room to react to the casting announcements regarding the new show set in the Office universe. NOTE: Our 250th live episode is coming up this Sunday May 5th! If you can, please join us for a livestream on YouTube at 10am PT. You can find us on our YouTube page. Support our show and become a member of Scott's Tots on Patreon!

What a CreepSeason 24, Episode 8The Creepy History of the “Desperate Housewives”"Desperate Housewives" was a famous American TV series from 2004 to 2012 set in Wisteria Lane, a seemingly perfect suburb. The show followed the lives of women and their families, uncovering secrets, scandals, and mysteries. The main characters included Susan Mayer, Lynette Scavo, Bree Van de Kamp, Gabrielle Solis, and Edie Britt, each with their unique romance, betrayal, and drama storylines. The biggest drama, however, was behind the scenes with accusations of racism, sexism, harassment, workplace abuse, bullying, and general assholery. Let's dive in!Sources for this episode: Vanity Fair May 2005: https://archive.vanityfair.com/article/2005/5/bed-burbs-and-beyondMetro UK: https://metro.co.uk/2019/09/11/secret-feuds-fallouts-desperate-housewives-cast-members-amid-claims-torture-bullying-10725882/Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desperate_HousewivesE Online: https://www.eonline.com/news/1079642/the-15-craziest-stories-from-the-desperate-housewives-setThe Daily Beast: https://www.thedailybeast.com/inside-the-desperate-housewives-dramaUS Weekly: https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/desperate-housewives-behind-the-scenes-drama-a-timeline/https://www.usmagazine.com/entertainment/news/desperate-housewives-writer-says-staff-avoided-teri-hatcher-2/Hollywood Reporter: https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/desperate-housewives-parting-gift-teri-hatcher-321673/End Credits: How I Broke Up with Hollywood by Patty Lin. Be sure to follow us on social media.
