Our guest this week is Michelle Wolf! And Michelle’s subgenre is… Coming Of Age Animal Tales.
A self confessed bad pitcher, this week Michelle brings an idea that goes against both God and nature. Along the way, she showcases her knowledge of all things Chinese, discusses the difficulty of coming out if you’re a baby rhino, and threatens to flip the coffee table over. It’s a good one.
The Big Pitch with Jimmy Carr is a new comedy podcast where each week a different celebrity guest pitches an idea for a film based on one of the SUPER niche sub-genres on Netflix. From ‘Steamy Crime Movies from the 1970s’ to ‘Australian Dysfunctional Family Comedies Starring A Strong Female Lead’, our celebrity guests will pitch their wacky plot, their dream cast, the marketing stunts, and everything in between. By the end of every episode, Jimmy Carr, Comedian by night / “Netflix Executive” by day, will decide whether the pitch is greenlit or condemned to development hell!
Listen on all podcast platforms and watch on the Netflix is a Joke YouTube Channel.
The Big Pitch is a co-production by Netflix and BBC Studios Audio.
