I began podcasting in 2011 with the Comedy on Vinyl podcast. It started and ended as an exploration of the history of vinyl comedy through the lens of how and why people make friends over comedy and, specifically, comedy albums (and usually on vinyl; I made occasional exceptions in the early days).
