  • Summary

  • Writing for a cluster of news commentary comedy shows in New York City remains one of the few viable options to earn a living in comedy this century, with the cinema revenues in a state of utter collapse and all forms of television broadcasting in decline (digital or conventional: even Netflix and Disney+, not just cable TV is now in decline). Joe Toplyn's book is in some ways a set of reflections on a period of history now coming to an end, and it is also practical advice on what you can do with your own career, before it's over.
