Comedian Todd Barry's new book is a laugh track across America
Barry brings a conversational tone to his new book, Thank You for Coming to Hattiesburg.
Todd Barry is familiar with what it's like to be a touring comic in today's comedy landscape. Drawing on those experiences, he has just published Thank You for Coming to Hattiesburg, a tour diary about playing smaller market comedy clubs in North America.
Barry brings an intimate, conversational tone to the book and recalls encounters on the road with names such as Jon Stewart and other famous comedians.
Barry talks to q host Tom Power from New York about misconceptions about small towns, what he learned from travelling and how the book is an unexpected tour of the best coffee shops across America.
