Rae Weiss grew up in West LA telling stories, trying to make their family laugh, and escaping the horror of helicopter parents and suburban ennui to the fantasy worlds of the ever-growing pile of books by their bed. Once they were allowed to start watching TV, they binged all of 30 Rock and thought “I want to do that.” From a close-knit and loving but deeply dysfunctional family, Rae tells stories about people who know each other’s personal nuclear codes but would still hold their hand as they explode.
