State of the Industry Address: Just for Laughs 1996

Released in 2017, this album features Andy Kindler’s very first annual ‘State of the Industry’ address, originally delivered at the Just for Laughs festival in 1996. Known for his biting and self-deprecating style, Kindler relentlessly critiques the comedy business, roasting executives, trends, and fellow comedians in a performance that established his reputation as the industry’s delightfully bitter conscience.
