Jeff & Ryan welcome David Pollock & Elias Davis to MASH Matters! This Emmy Award-winning writing team wrote multiple episodes M*A*S*H, including fan favorites “Blood Brothers,” “‘Twas the Day After Christmas”, “Sons & Bowlers,” and (with Alan Alda) the first 30 minutes of “Goodbye, Farewell, and Amen.” We discuss their career, influences, writing process, and the comedy team they didn’t book as producers of The Steve Allen Show.
