David Sedaris stopped by our offices recently to record some of his short stories for The Writers' Block. The first thing he said to me was, "I gain weight in my lower back. What about you?" You can imagine how zany things got after that. Before my meeting with the bona fide Greek comedy god was over, I made sure to take advantage of the situation and ask him a few random questions. Listen below to find out which politician he would like to kick in the shins, which singer is his guiltiest pleasure, and which country he thinks has the most "off-the-hook" curse words.
