Summary

This summer we lost one of the most respected artists I’ve ever known in this industry—Kevin Rooney. He was a really special person to all of us fortunate enough to know him. He worked with the best, hung with the best, and his sense of humor was the best. The way he spent time with all the comedians and was able to navigate through any situation, made him one of the most original people in our business. I hope you enjoy Part 1 of this classic episode where you get to hear his insight on our business from the man himself. I’ll miss him dearly.
