“Funny is Money is a rollicking, candid memoir of comedy writer Robert Illes’ many years in show business. This book stands out as a humorous, irreverent, and deeply personal memoir that not only entertains but also offers a genuine look into the struggles, triumphs, and absurdities of working in the television industry during a transformative era from the early 1970s to the turn of the century. Its unabashed storytelling—complete with rich detail, insider humor, and a distinctive voice—makes for a compelling read for anyone interested in the behind-the-scenes world of show business.”

I bullshitted about nuclear meltdowns with Jane Fonda, shook hands with Fred Astaire, and hit on Raquel Welch. Raquel said no to me.
