Episode 58 (Bonus): Paul Reiser's father "tolerated" the Beatles on Ed Sullivan

On this episode of Everything Fab Four, actor and comedian Paul Reiser joins to discuss his first memories of the Beatles on Ed Sullivan and share the Beatles song that “still kills [him].”

Reiser began his career as a stand-up comedian, breaking into film with Barry Levinson’s 1982 movie Diner. Reiser starred in the sitcom My Two Dads in the late 1980s, and later co-created the television show Mad About You, one of the defining comedy series of the 1990s. For his role in Mad About You, Reiser earned nominations for an Emmy, a Golden Globe, and a Screen Actors Guild Award. Reiser has also appeared in movies like Aliens and the Beverly Hills Cop franchise, and more recently, in the Netflix series Stranger Things and Amazon Prime’s The Boys. 

Comedy Central has ranked Paul Reiser as the 77th greatest stand-up comedian of all time. He has also established himself as a bestselling author, with such books as Couplehood and Babyhood. Earlier this year, he co-authored the memoir What a Fool Believes with Michael McDonald. This month, Reiser is releasing his first comedy special in more than 30 years, called Life, Death, and Rice Pudding.
