“Then there’s guys like Barry Crimmins,15 who is a political satirist from the ’80s. I’m actually shooting a stand-up special for him that I’m producing and putting on my website. Barry’s a great voice from the past who’s still kicking.”

Louis C.K. will now be giving Barry more of that spotlight as he’ll be shooting a comedy special and releasing it through louisck.net. 

If you’ve seen the doc, you should be more than intrigued at what Crimmins has to say about the world today.
