Ep 19 - Ryan McKee and Modest Proposal Anthology (2020) - a podcast by James Hillmer
from 2020-12-18T16:21:27
I talked with Emmy-winning writer and comic, Ryan McKee (Twt: @theryanmckee, IG: @ryanmckee) about his comedy zine from the early 2000s. He recently published an anthology of some of the zine's best interviews with beloved alt comedians before they got huge. The book also has updates from the comics reading back over their interviews from nearly 20 years ago. You can order the book on Amazon at the link below. I read it and loved it! A must-have for fans of alt comedy. We talked about the zine, alt comedy, what it looked like before social media and Netflix, and what LA's alt scene was like in the early and mid 2000s.
