The Believermagazine presents a compendium of advice from producers, writers, and actors of The Daily Show, Saturday Night Live, Parks and Recreation, Late Show with David Letterman, The Hangover,and The Colbert Report, along with other musicians, cartoonists, New Yorkerwriters, and those similarly unqualified to offer guidance.
