I’ve listened to a bunch of the interviews in that series, and Carlin’s was perhaps the most detailed and thorough of all of the ones I heard. There are many comics I prefer, taste wise, but I doubt any comic has more extensive knowledge and analytical understanding than Carlin, or a joke output that touches on more subjects.
Thanks so much will definitely check out. Also, WP just published interesting piece on Kevin Hart: https://www.washingtonpost.com/entertainment/2024/03/21/is-kevin-hart-funny-twain-prize-kennedy-center/

Will definitely listen to this today!
Laugh.com is much needed now- so many supposed "comedy" writers are disgracing the genre's name.
Thanks for the heads up! Listening to this now. Please keep your zeal for making people laugh continue. The world needs you, Scott!
Thanks for the rec, Scott. Will check it out.
I miss Carlin.
