About this listen

We go inside the PBS Independent Lens documentary series The United States of Comedy with director Habib Azar. The five-part series spotlights diverse voices shaping stand-up comedy across America—from the clubs of New York and Chicago to the stages of Atlanta and Austin—capturing the next generation redefining American comedy culture. Habib shares stories from filming during the pandemic, discovering rising comics in dive bars and brewery backrooms, and how The United States of Comedy became his own “comedy grad school.” We dive into local scenes, creative resilience, and what unites comedians across the United States.
