Andrew Schultz joins to discuss his Netflix special Schultz Saves America, explaining the surprising costs of licensing images for jokes, including a bit about not being able to afford a photo of Epstein's island.
- Andrew Schultz's new project is a four-part comedy special on Netflix about his parents.
- Schultz was posting these videos on Instagram and they went viral—the Rock was watching them.
- Image licensing became the biggest headache: Schultz and his team spent between $50,000 and $100,000 just on image rights for the special.
- On a TBS sketch show about Jeffrey Epstein's island, the network couldn't afford to license the actual photo, so they demanded he use a different island instead.
