Episode 50 - Internet killed the comedy star

In this episode of The Comedy Kiosk, David and Igor discuss the influence social media and the internet as a whole has had on stand-up comedy. Do comedians pander to YouTube? Are hecklers now part of the experience and why? Has TikTok killed the grand raconteur (storyteller)? Or is comedy just evolving, and does this mean these two dinosaurs are just going to have to get with the times, invent a silly dance to go with their lip-synched bits? The answer to all these questions are in this TikTok unfriendly sized episode.
