"Plus, there are DIY comedy festivals popping up in different towns, everywhere—outside of L.A. and New York. This gives a lot of young comedians incredible chances to mix and mingle with voices and people from other cities. And it seems—to me—that this new generation coming up realizes the pitfalls of becoming a delicate, alt-comedy posey. They saw so many over-validated “alt” darlings in ironic T-shirts, reading off of notebooks onstage, become lazy, self-indulgent grinds. So, hopefully, this next wave will keep that in mind. We’ll see."

As usual, this is just a goddamn goldmine of amazing Shit Patton Says.
