Podcast appearances and mentions of mike molly

Welcome to another episode of The Sisterhood of Sweat! I'm so excited to have the talented actor Nambi Nylumbi join us today. Nambi is best known for his roles on shows like Night Court, The Good Fight, and Mike & Molly. But his journey to success is truly inspiring. Nambi shared an amazing story about how a simple act of kindness - a stranger giving him $20 on the street - ended up changing the trajectory of his career. That $20 got him to an important audition, which led to booking his breakout role on Mike & Molly. And the rest, as they say, is history. Nambi has such a positive and grateful outlook on life. He's proof that with hard work, talent, and a little bit of luck, you can achieve your dreams. I know our listeners are going to be uplifted and motivated by his story. So without further ado, let's dive into my conversation with the one and only Nyambi Nyambi! Questions Asked: Are you still living in New York City? Did you see yourself growing up as an actor like when you were younger, what did you want to be? Can you tell us how $20 changed your life? Tell us why you want people to watch Night Court. What is going to be their blessing from that?

Da es in dieser Woche an interessanten Neustarts fehlt, beschäftigen sich Michael und Rüdiger mit den wirklich populärsten Serien der Streamingdienste: alte Sitcom-Klassiker. Egal in welchem Land man die Quotenlisten durchstöbert, bei den meistgestreamten Serien tauchen immer wieder "The Big Bang Theory", "Friends", "Seinfeld", "The Office" oder andere Comedy-Klassiker auf. Da in diesem Monat der Nachschub vergrößert wird, weil "Hör mal wer da Hämmert" zu Disney+ und "Mike & Molly" zu Amazon Freevee kommen, sprechen wir in der heutigen Folge über das Phänomen Sitcom: Was macht sie so beliebt und warum werden sie immer wieder geschaut? Aber wir stellen uns auch die Frage warum es in den letzten Jahren keine Sitcoms vom Kaliber "Modern Family" und Co. mehr gab. Liegt es am mangelnden Willen der Streamingdienste? Oder am fehlenden Können? Aber natürlich wäre so ein Sitcom-Special nicht komplett ohne Empfehlungen, daher haben wir für Euch kurze Bestenlisten zusammengestellt inkl. Hinweis wo sie streambar sind: Die besten Kneipen/Cafés/ Restaurants in Sitcoms Die besten Hauptfiguren Die besten Sidekicks Die miesesten Punching Bags Die besten Sitcom-Haustiere Die tollsten Arbeitsplätze Die coolsten Sitcom-Familien Die schönsten Apartments Die besten Will they / Won't they Beziehungen Die nervigsten Sitcom-Charaktere Die am schlechtesten gealterten Sitcoms Und die Top 3 Sitcoms der 70er/80er/90er/00er und 10er Jahre Cold-Open-Frage: "Welche HBO-Serie sollte noch an Netflix lizenziert werden?"

Kevin Rogers spent years traveling the country as a stand-up comedian working the circuit with now-famous comics like Chris Rock, Louis CK, Billy Gardell and many more. After a decade performing comedy, Kevin retired from the road and married the love of his life. He also discovered a new professional passion – direct response sales copywriting. He spent ten years as a freelance copywriter, writing and chiefing the sales copy for high profile and insanely profitable product launches with the industry's top producers. Things changed again when Kevin discovered how a simple joke formula could be used as a powerful marketing hook and began teaching it to marketers as The 60-Second Sales Hook and released a book by the same name. The success of the book led Kevin to create Copy Chief, a private community-based forum and copy training center where talented copywriters partner with value-driven product creators and content providers to produce forward-thinking ad campaigns. After 12 years away from comedy, Kevin's recently returned to the stand-up stage, developing 25 minutes of new material over 60 days and performing for 2,000 people accepting a challenge to open a show for his longtime friend Billy Gardell, of Mike & Molly fame. Kevin is the Amazon best-selling author of The 60-Second Sales Hook and founder of Copy Chief, a thriving community of the world's top online marketers.

James Burrows is an 11-time Emmy Award-winning director. He began his television career directing episodes of "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," "The Bob Newhart Show," and "Laverne & Shirley." He became the resident director on "Taxi," then co-created the beloved classic "Cheers," directing 243 of the 273 episodes, as well as all 246 episodes of "Will & Grace." He has directed the pilots and multiple episodes of "Frasier," "Friends," "Mike & Molly," the pilots of "Two and a Half Men" and "The Big Bang Theory," and hundreds of other shows that he chronicles in his new memoir, Directed by James Burrows.  In this episode, James shares lessons he has learned throughout his five-decade career, behind-the-scenes stories from directing more than 1,000 episodes of television, and how he knows something is truly funny.

Jimmy Burrows has directed more than one thousand episodes of sitcom television and has earned eleven Emmy Awards and five Directors Guild of America Awards. In 1974 he began his television career directing episodes of The Mary Tyler Moore Show, The Bob Newhart Show, and Laverne and Shirley. He became the resident director on Taxi and co-created Cheers, directing 243 of the 273 episodes, as well as all 246 episodes of Will and Grace. He has directed the pilots of multiple episodes of Frasier, Friends, Mike & Molly, the pilots of Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory, and hundreds of other shows.  His new book is titled: Directed by James Burrows: Five Decades of Stories from the Legendary Director of Taxi, Cheers, Frasier, Will & Grace, and More.      Some interesting insights from this episode: He operates with kindness. Everyone has to row together and pull equally with everyone else. He doesn't allow ego to get in the way. He has the perfect temperament for TV directing. He doesn't lose his temper, he's patient, he has low ego, and he knows how to encourage others. He feels as a director it's important to “die with your boots on”. That is, to try to do something to make a difference.  To provide input to make the best show possible. When deciding whether to work on a show, he likes to meet with the writer and have him/her defend themselves but not be defensive. When asked about same-sex marriage, then Vice President Joe Biden said, “I think Will & Grace probably did more to educate the American public than almost anything anybody's ever done so far. People fear that which is different. Now they're beginning to understand.” His success is attributed to his ability to create a harmony on the set so everyone's involved in making the show better. On his sets, you have to check your ego at the door. “Excellence is to try to be the best you can be in your particular field.”   Notes: Book: Directed by James Burrows: Five Decades of Stories from the Legendary Director of Taxi, Cheers, Frasier, Friends, Will & Grace, and More

His Grandfather was in the original Our Gang comedies... This week, host Gray Jones interviews comedy writer and Script Anatomy instructor Aaron Vaccaro. Aaron Vaccaro bio: He grew up in the San Fernando Valley (the non-porny part) and was always enamored by the entertainment industry, inspired by his grandfather, who starred in the original "Our Gang" comedies. After graduating from UC Santa Barbara with a degree in Film Studies, Aaron set out to become a television writer. He scored several Writers' Assistant stints – on "24," "Ghost Whisperer," "The New Adventures of Old Christine," "Wilfred," and "Mike & Molly." After being chosen as one of the NBC's Writers on the Verge, Aaron has gone on to write for "Mike & Molly" and "Superior Donuts," both on CBS, "Team Kaylie" on Netflix, and most recently "Drama Club" on Nickelodeon. He has developed projects with Netflix, Disney, Universal Cable Productions, Viola Davis' production company, and once sold a feature entitled "Sasquatch vs. The Abominable Snowman," which is every bit as insane as it sounds. Aaron now has an M.F.A. in Screenwriting and has taught screenwriting courses at AFI, UCSB, CSUN, LA Valley College and now Script Anatomy.

I remember the first time Kev asked me to perform on stage. And let me be clear – he didn't ask me to speak, he asked me to SING. That triggered a whole ‘nother level of freak out, but I made myself say yes and the rest is history – to this day folks in the industry talk about that first performance I did in front of my colleagues. That's why I love that I got to talk to Kev about what it takes to put yourself out there as an entertainer. I think you're gonna get a lot out of this one.  Can't-Miss Moments From This Episode:Let's get meta: Kev and I explore the behind-the-scenes work that goes into putting on a podcast, what makes a great guest, and the staggering “7 episode” statistic that derails most would-be podcast creators When seconds count: how Kev thinks through preparing for a speaking engagement when it has to come in right on time. With no room for over or under, how does he nail the timing? How I went from newbie podcast host to recording enough content for an entire year inside 4 months (hint: there was a lot of making it up as I went)  What do you do when your performance or gig or speech bombs? (Bonus: massive fail stories from me and Kev's time on stage) “Don't tell me what to do” – a counterintuitive parenting approach that works in just about any kind of business or personal situation (especially if you want to keep that relationship!) This one is jam-packed full of awesome. Don't miss out - listen now! Kevin's Bio:Kevin Rogers spent years traveling the country as a stand-up comedian working the circuit with now-famous comics like Chris Rock, Louis CK, Billy Gardell and many more. After a decade performing comedy, Kevin retired from the road and married the love of his life. He also discovered a new professional passion - direct response sales copywriting. He spent ten years as a freelance copywriter, writing and chiefing the sales copy for high profile and insanely profitable product launches with the industry's top producers. Things changed again when Kevin discovered how a simple joke formula could be used as a powerful marketing hook and began teaching it to marketers as The 60-Second Sales Hook and released a book by the same name.The success of the book led Kevin to create Copy Chief, a private community-based forum and copy training center where talented copywriters partner with value-driven product creators and content providers to produce forward-thinking ad campaigns. After 12 years away from comedy, Kevin's recently returned to the stand-up stage, developing 25 minutes of new material over 60 days and performing for 2,000 people accepting a challenge to open a show for his longtime friend Billy Gardell, of Mike & Molly fame. Kevin is the Amazon best-selling author of The 60-Second Sales Hook and founder of Copy Chief, a thriving community of the world's top online marketers.Resources and links mentioned:Kevin's site, Copy ChiefKevin's podcast, Copy Chief Radio (yours truly guested on a few eps!)Carline Anglade-Cole's siteCarline's tribute to Clayton Makepeace (YouTube playlist)Gary Bencivenga's siteJohn Lee Dumas' siteKev's episode on the Entrepreneurs on Fire podcastFor funsies: Angie's last performance with her SF blues bandCome kick ass with me:Permission to Kick Ass websiteAngie's Facebook PageAngie on InstaAngie on YouTube

Speaking health with the star of Bob Hearts Abishola - Jane’s special guest today is the multi-talented television, movie and stand-up comedy star Billy Gardell. Aside from movies such as Avenging Angelo, Bad Santa, You, Me & Dupree and powerhouse comedy specials, we all know Billy from, among other blockbuster hits, My Name is Earl and his breakout role on the Emmy award winning Mike & Molly with Melissa McCarthy. He currently stars in the Emmy nominated Bob Hearts Abishola, which has just been renewed for another season. The series is about Billy’s character, Bob Wheeler, having a heart attack and falling in love with his nurse Abishola, a Nigerian immigrant. The message, which has resonated with viewers nationwide, is heartwarming: If you are lucky enough to find someone you fall for and they fall back for you, size, shape and color doesn’t matter. In real life, however, it isn’t Billy’s heart that’s an issue, it’s his Type 2 diabetes. To that end, on this segment he and Jane not only talk about his stellar career but also his partnership with Novo Nordisk on the revolutionary “My Type 2 Transformation” campaign. Indeed, it is through Billy’s personal adherence to this innovative yet practical program that he has learned to manage his own Type 2 diabetes by prioritizing his diet and lifestyle, enabling him to look slimmer and trimmer and feel Better Than Before.

Actress Mo Gaffney was on the seminal show Absolutely Fabulous and rest assured she is absolutely fabulous. After launching to stardom with the off-Broadway show The Kathy and Mo Show (which she created with friend Kathy Najimy), Gaffney went on to: a) Win Obie awards for it; b) Make it into an HBO show; c) Work non-stop, on everything from That '70s Show to Friends to Mad About You to Mike & Molly to pretty much every other show you can name. It may be inappropriate to say this when you're writing about a recovery podcast but it's clear Gaffney was what's known as a fun drunk. Still, after becoming a mom and noticing, increasingly, how drinking was negatively impacting her life, she sobered up—joining five other siblings and her mom in recovery. In this episode, she and AfterParty's Anna David discuss martinis, pretending to take ecstasy, missing smoking and craving a companion to read with, among many other topics.

Heute mit Jan Schlüter, Julian Miller und Sebastian Lätsch (@bastilaetsch). Diesmal sprechen wir in einem extralangen Podcast über eine unserer großen Lieblingsserien "Frasier", die in elf Staffeln bis 2004 zu einer der erfolgreichsten Sitcoms aller Zeiten wurde und der Eckpfeiler des erfolgreichen Must See TV von NBC war. Dieses hat mit weiteren Comedys wie "Seinfeld" und "Friends" das Sitcom-Genre in den 90ern revolutioniert. Wir blicken im Podcast innerhalb der Rubrik "Meine Serie" auf "Frasier" und unsere Lieblingsfiguren daraus, aber auch auch auf das Phänomen Must See TV - und blicken auf die Frage, warum es die Art von "Sophisticated Sitcom", die "Frasier" und "Seinfeld" verkörpern, im heutigen Fernsehen nicht mehr gibt.
