In 2017 Russell Weissman joined All Things Comedy as an early employee, and was recently promoted to COO. He’s been a key figure in guiding the company’s growth. Today All Things Comedy is one of the largest podcast networks in the world, and by any measure can be considered a media company that spans well beyond podcasting. And yet! They still maintain the original indie / co-op foundation the company was founded on.

Russell and I cover a lot of ground in this conversation, including All Things Comedy’s approach to working with artists and developing IP, how to develop a brand identity for a media network with dozens of shows, and the current role podcasting plays in the lives of comedians.
