“My job is to make them laugh, and I like to hear them laugh. I think it’s a sickness.” Award-winning comedy legend Eric Idle sits down with Jordan Klepper to discuss his new book, "The Spamalot Diaries.” They talk about how hoarding diaries revealed memories and arguments from the making of the Broadway musical, director Mike Nichols’s advice to believe in your jokes, focusing on respect in comedy rather than being hip, being a funeral staple with “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life,” and staying on the bright side by ignoring the news cycle.
