So What Do You Really Do?

Get ready for a laughter-filled episode of "So What Do You Really Do?" with host Deadair Dennis Maler! In this episode, the spotlight is on the comedic powerhouse and Emmy-winning writer, Brian Kiley. As a monologue writer for Conan O'Brien and Ellen Degeneres, Brian has been tickling funny bones for years. 🤣
Brian Kelly has appeared numerous times on “The Late Show with David Letterman”, “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” and “Late Night with Conan O'Brien.”

Much to his surprise, he was even featured in the New York Times Sunday Crossword Puzzle. (He has never completed said puzzle.)
