Episode 107: Emily Cutler (Fresh Off The Boat, AP Bio) Interview (Step Dave After Show)

Happy Thanksgiving to all of our Dead Pilots Society listeners! This week we caught up with Emily Cutler (Fresh off The Boat, AP Bio) the writer of Step Dave! Emily talks in depth about how the Step Dave format came to her. Also, Andrew will give you a brief education about what a format even is! Emily felt a special connection to the material because, like Annie in the pilot, her husband is 10 years younger than her. She told us about how she mined material from her own marriage to pitch and develop the show. Emily also discusses her early career transition from an actor to a writer and she shared with us her best practices for people wanting to staff. This is a really great episode with a brilliant writer. Enjoy it and thanks for listening! Get the video for the table read of Step Dave for as little as $5 by going to <a href="https://maximumfun.org/join">https://maximumfun.org/join</a> For more Dead Pilots Society episodes and information about our live shows, please subscribe to the podcast!Make sure to like us on <a href="http://www.facebook.com/deadpilotssociety/">Facebook</a>, follow us on <a href="http://www.instagram.com/deadpilotspod/?hl=en">Instagram</a>, and <a href="http://www.twitter.com/deadpilotspod">Twitter</a>, and visit our website at <a href="http://www.deadpilotssociety.com./">deadpilotssociety.com</a>
