Uploaded on Apr 25, 2010

Jordan Brady, the director of the 2010 documentary, "I Am Comic," spoke with me during the Bridgetown Comedy Festival in Portland, Ore., about his film, which takes a look deep inside the minds and world of working stand-up comedians.

Brady talks about what makes his film different from other documentaries on stand-up comedy, such as "Comedian," "When Stand-Up Stood Out" and "Heckler," and also why he wanted to interview as many comedians as possible, including Janeane Garofalo, Jeff Foxworthy, Nick Kroll, Carrot Top, Kathy Griffin and dozens more.

"I Am Comic" premiered at Slamdance. Screenings are taking place at various film fests around the country in 2010, with an expected release on Showtime this summer, and an expanded DVD in the fall.

    You sir, are a genius. I watched your film last night on Showtime on Demand and it was brilliant. You captured the soul of what I am chasing.  You captured the essence of why we do what we do. Bless you, Jordan. Bless you!
