The creator of Netflix's 'Big Mouth' shares which embarrassing puberty stories happened in real life

Netflix's new animated comedy "Big Mouth" follows seventh graders experiencing - or about to experience - puberty. Their bodies are changing, and they're developing sexual desires they just don't know what to do with it.

"Big Mouth" has been a huge hit with critics, receiving a 100% on Rotten Tomatoes to become Netflix's highest-rated animated show.

Business Insider recently talked to Andrew Goldberg, a former "Family Guy" writer who co-created "Big Mouth" with comedian Nick Kroll (his best friend since childhood), Jennifer Flackett, and Mark Levin.

The main characters on the show, Nick (voiced by Nick Kroll) and Andrew (voiced by John Mulaney), are based on Nick Kroll and Andrew Goldberg. This means that a lot of the things that happen to Nick, Andrew, and the other teenage characters on the show are drawn from real life puberty stories.

"A lot of it is exaggerations and embellishment of stuff that really did happen to us," Goldberg said. And you might be surprised which storylines are actually based on true events.
