To commemorate the release of her new, deeply personal Netflix special ‘PostMortem),’ we revisit our conversation with Sarah Silverman.
At the top, we reflect on loss (7:16), her HBO special *Sarah Silverman: Someone You Love) *(12:35), and coming of age in the ‘80s (18:42). Then, Silverman talks about her early comedic influences (25:35), her path from SNL to Los Angeles (32:30), and the mentorship of Garry Shandling (35:10).
On the back-half, we walk through the evolution of her provocative work, from The Sarah Silverman Program (38:42) to *I Love You, America *(46:52), the connective tissue of The Sarah Silverman Podcast) (49:12), and the legacy of her beloved, late father (51:57).
Original air date: June 18, 2023.
