Mike Reiss: 我和妻子去过134个国家，包括北极、复活节岛和乞力马扎罗山。这些旅行都不是我的主意，都是我妻子提出来的。我去这些地方完全是为了陪她，这是一种爱的表达。我们还一起乘坐潜水艇参观了哈德逊峡谷和泰坦尼克号残骸，虽然过程很无聊，但我仍然觉得很值得。去北朝鲜的经历也很特别，为了入境，我谎称自己是天主教宣传员。朝鲜的旅游行程安排很严格，但忽略掉周遭的人权问题，旅程本身还是不错的。我们还申请参加了一次前往火星的探测任务，但最终未能成行。在疫情期间，我通过Zoom远程参与《辛普森一家》的创作，这让我有更多时间环游世界。在《卑鄙的我》的创作中，我为小黄人取了几个名字，这些名字都是《辛普森一家》剧组成员的名字，后来这些名字被沿用下来。 主持人: 迈克·里斯是当代伟大的喜剧作家之一，参与了《辛普森一家》等多部作品的创作。大多数人度假会选择一些常规的旅游目的地，而迈克·里斯和妻子却选择去参观泰坦尼克号残骸，这体现了他独特的冒险精神。他还分享了在朝鲜的旅行经历，以及在《辛普森一家》创作中的一些趣事。他认为团队合作和良好的沟通对于创造性工作至关重要，而《辛普森一家》的长期成功也离不开剧组成员之间良好的关系。

Shownotes Transcript

When you get one of the most successful comedy writers in television history to come on your podcast, naturally the first thing to talk about is...his trip in a homemade submarine to visit the ruins of the Titanic.

You see, Mike Reiss isn't just the funniest guy in the room — he's also the most well-traveled.  He's been to Iran, the North Pole, North Korea, and everywhere in between.  

Whether he's sharing travel anecdotes or writer's room memories from his 600+ episodes of The Simpsons, one thing is very clear: when Mike tells a story, things are going to get animated.  

This is… A Bit of Optimism.
