Apatow's old radio show

You don’t get to be Judd Apatow, King of Comedy by just sitting around all day and suddenly deciding you want to be rich and funny. Judd’s been at this for a long time and we’ve got the video to prove it. With FUNNY PEOPLE on the way, Judd has dipped into his archives and pulled out some old tapes from his high school radio show.

Through some old-fashioned determination he was able to convince the likes of Harold Ramis, Jay Leno, Jerry Seinfeld, Garry Shandling and Paul Reiser to come on his high school radio show to talk comedy. It’s the basis of these relationships that helped form Judd’s idea of comedy and eventually served as the launching point for FUNNY PEOPLE.
