Comedy Writing in the Age of Trump SOLD OUT

“Full Frontal with Samantha Bee” writers Ashley Nicole Black, Patrick Cassels and Mathan Erhardt discuss how they approach their work within the context of the current political climate and the value added of working on one of the most diverse writing teams ever assembled for television.

Ashley Nicole Black is an Emmy Award-nominated writer and correspondent for “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee.” She was four years into a PhD when she dropped out in order to pursue a career in comedy.

Mathan Erhardt is an Emmy Award-nominated staff writer for “Full Frontal with Samantha Bee.” He was working for the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration in Baltimore when he submitted a writing sample to the show. When reading Erhardt’s submission, executive producer Jo Miller said, “It didn’t sound a bit like any of the other 230 packets I had read. His strong point of view and bone-dry wit stood out immediately.”
