Richard Zoglin is a journalist and author of 3 best selling books, HOPE: Entertain of the Century, Elvis in Vegas, and my personal favorite Comedy At The Edge: How Stand-up in the 1970s Changed America.
We go in depth about the comedy boom in the 70s, his time as a journalist on that scene, the interviews he conducted in the the book, his favorite stand-ups, how it’s changed today, Bob Hope, Elvis, Sinatra, and the current state of affairs surrounding cancel culture, the comedy community and what’s next for Richard Zoglin. Enjoy!
