I listened to the episode on the supposed lost art of the comedy album. The show is hosted by very young adults, so I don’t know if it’s fair to criticize them for lacking any historical context. I do think it’s fair to criticize them for lacking any depth of knowledge. I think if you are someone who was completely unaware that comedy was, and still is, released on vinyl then you would be presented with information that was new to you. Most of that information would also be true.
To be fair, I was at a popular used record store recently and the hipster clerk was unaware, and seemingly skeptical, that comedy records were a thing that really existed.
Otherwise, I think you would be frustrated by the lack of anything of substance that these people have to say.
