The stuff being talked about on this podcast about the comedy scene is incredibly similar to the stuff that folks have talked about for a long time in the music business.
Listening to Chris talk reminds me a lot of @CurtissKing. DIY spirit crosses over.

@arithmoquine Hello, I was sent your tweet and I would suggest reading my book, if you have time. If you don't have that much time, the first chapter might be enough. https://t.co/1C9dwTnDVc
damn. @JesseDavidFox wrote the best intro to a comedy book by truly dissecting the relevance & power of comedy
with facts ranging from how the Seinfeld season finally had ~3x viewers than Game of Throne’s, to Balenciaga hiring The Simpsons to animate Paris Fashion Week
"If you are saying supposedly offensive things and the audience is instantly all on board, it is not a comedy show, it’s a rally." My fave highlights from "Comedy Book: How Comedy Conquered Culture and the Magic That Makes It Work" by @JesseDavidFox.

@artificerrage Hi thank you for reading the article! I will just say they didn't "decide to make this public." I reported on their rates for three months. Thought that might be helpful context
With Timothée Chalamet up for Best Actor at the Oscars this weekend for ‘A Complete Unknown,’ Tim Baltz is ready to break his relative silence about what it’s like also living as a Timothée. https://t.co/3PQaAkRGPk
@AngeloCoqeta@vulture Hi Angelo, sorry I haven't been on twitter for two weeks. I assume you didn't read the piece, because LITERALLY what you are saying is what I argue. We agree 1000%
📣📣WE HAVE A DEAL!📣📣
Last week, @NYMagUnion reached a tentative agreement with New York Magazine and Vox Media. We could not be prouder of our members who made it clear they were ready to withhold their labor if @VoxMedia didn’t meet them with a fair contract.
Grateful to Jesse for writing about the Doug Stanhope special that, in hindsight, I wish I wrote about. Also: three other very good specials released this month!
