Drew Carey is picking up the tab for striking writers in LA

 May 25, 2023      Andrew Buss      Drew Carey, News    

There’s been a lot of talk about the writer’s strike. You’ve surely seen countless posts from writers on the picket lines. But with this means that there’s surely writers out there struggling to make ends meet right now. That’s where Drew Carey is stepping in to assist.

From now until the strike is over, Drew Carey announced on Twitter that he will be picking up the tab for all striking writers at two restaurants in LA, tip included.

“Show your WGA card at Bob’s Big Boy in Burbank or Swingers Diner on Beverly (near Fairfax) and your meal is free,” Carey wrote. “For the duration of the strike. Dine-in only, Tip included.”

A nice gesture to assist those whose jobs will be impacted by this.
