In case you don’t know, Andy Kindler does a new hour every year roasting the whole industry of comedy at the JFL Montreal Comedy Festival.

It’s a time honored tradition and required listening. It is “Inside Baseball”, even by comedy nerd standards, but looking up references is kind of worth it for Kindler’s pointed, yet rambunctious dressing down of all of comedy.

Also, if you’re curious about the feud between Kindler and Gervais, it’s a main focus of this particular State of the Industry Address.
