TV Junkie Interview: Comedian Josh Wolf from 'Chelsea Lately' & 'College Experiment'
Comedian Josh Wolf is looking forward to a very good year. He's now back as a writer and regular roundtable member on E!'s "Chelsea Lately" (Monday-Friday at 11pm) and as of last Sunday, he will be appearing as a castmember of the "Chelsea Lately" spinoff, "After Lately" (Sundays at 11pm). In addition to his work on E!, Wolf is the host of Fuel TV's sports-themed comedy show "College Experiment," which airs Thursdays at Midnight. As if this wasn't enough, Wolf will be part of Chelsea Handler's "The Lies Chelsea Handler Told Me" national tour that kicks off in May.
Comfortable playing everything from arenas to small alternative comedy venues, we caught up with Wolf in between sets to ask him a few questions. What was revealed was that Wolf is a couple drafts into a script for Adam Sandler's production company. Watch the video to see what Wolf has to say about the matter as well as the differences in performing for 50,000 people and a small comedy club.

As Editor-in-Chief of our newsroom, I’m extremely proud of the work our top-notch journalists are doing here at LAist. We’re doing more hard-hitting watchdog journalism than ever before — powerful reporting on the economy, elections, climate and the homelessness crisis that is making a difference in your lives. At the same time, it’s never been more difficult to maintain a paywall-free, independent news source that informs, inspires, and engages everyone.
