Summary
Jeff & Ryan welcome writer/director/producer/actor Allan Katz back for his second appearance on MASH Matters! This time around, the boys take a deep dive into the world of writing. We discuss Allan's process for writing for established characters, rewriting scripts from other writers, working with difficult performers (*cough* Jackie Gleason), the reason he left M*A*S*H after one season, why Larry Linville decided to depart the series, and other jocularity.
