Unmasked

Ron Bennington sat down with Colin Quinn to tape an episode of Unmasked in 2010. Colin Quinn has been at the center of so much of the great comedy of the past two decades. His show, Tough Crowd, introduced the world to some of the greatest comedians performing today, and inspired countless others. In 2010, Quinn premiered his third one-man show Colin Quinn Long Story Short on Broadway, directed by Jerry Seinfeld.  It was a turning point for Quinn, who would later go on to create Unconstitutional and New York Stories, and a perfect time to hear him talk about his career and ambitions.  It's one of our favorite hours ever recorded in the Unmasked series. You'll hear Quinn talk about getting through lowpoints in his career, growing up in Brooklyn his time on Remote Control, SNL, and Tough Crowd and he talks about The Integrity Factor and comedy vs art.  The episode was taped on May 23, 2010 in the fishbowl at SiriusXM in New York City.
