Talking Simpsons - Bart Gets Famous With Alan Siegel
Description
"I shouldn't let this bother me. I'm in television now. It's my job to be repetitive. My job! My job! Repetitiveness is my job!" - Bart Simpson
A trip to the box factory causes Bart to catch the showbiz bug when he sneaks away and lands a gig behind the scenes at The Krusty the Clown Show. But when a bit part on a sketch makes him an overnight sensation, he learns just how long a single catchphrase can sustain an entertainment career.
Our guest: Alan Siegel, senior staff writer at The Ringer, and author of the upcoming book, Stupid TV, Be More Funny
