Donnie and Jonny's Story Time
Donnie and Jonny's Story Time is a comedy podcast hosted by legendary sitcom creator Don Reo and former federal prosecutor-turned-TV showrunner Jonathan Shapiro. The two veteran storytellers swap war stories from their years in Hollywood, dissect and analyze humor, and mercilessly roast each other along the way. The tone swings between smart and silly, mixing sharp wit with a slightly crass edge as they prove that age doesn't necessarily bring maturity. Each episode turns into a loose, hilarious ramble through their shared history and the absurdities of the entertainment business.
