We are fans of the work of Garry Shandling. This episode of THE EDGE looks back at his professional life, both personal and professional. It’s a pretty deep dive. We include some clips from Garry and we talk primarily about his two groundbreaking shows: IT’S GARRY SHANDLING’S SHOW and THE LARRY SANDERS. Our guests are two people who knew him. Jay Kogen joins us to talk about having started as an errand boy on IT’S GARRY SHANDLING’S SHOW in the 80’s and rising to the role of writer and ultimately going on to become an Emmy winning producer, given the Emmy by, Garry Shandling. Also, we are joined by Linda Doucett, who was Garry’s fiancé and was with him for 7 years. She talks about her years at THE LARRY SANDERS SHOW and her world around him. Linda is still raw from the news of Garry’s death, having just spoken to him a week before he died. |
