The gals are thrilled to welcome one of the original Murphy Brown writers (Seasons 1-6)  and later Executive Producer (Seasons 5-6): Steven Peterman! Jesi and Lauren think you will enjoy the interview and the great stories Steven has to share. In fact, they got such great stories out of Steven that this is a two-part episode!

​

PART 1: Topics include: Meeting his writing partner Gary Dontzig, Murphy’s impact on people of all ages and background, how it was to write a gay storyline for a network show back in the 1990s and … unfortunately, Dan Quayle. Also, Lauren has a surprise for Steven from 1993.

​

PART 2: Topics include: The lasting impact of Murphy Brown, Steve’s transition from actor to writer, awards, and memories of Jay Thomas as Jerry Gold.
