Mindy's Comedy Archives

Wyatt Cenac enters the archives in 2008 at Comix shortly after moving to NYC for The Daily Show. He shows up in photos at Whiplash, Bowery Electric, and Hannibal's Comedy in a Garage at Matchless, a precursor to the much loved Knitting Factory show. While we didn't get to Wyatt's show, Night Train, in this ep, you can see the ones taped for Seeso here. We'll get to that era in the next episode. You can also celebrate Night Train at the upcoming Hot Butter Train show at The Bell House. It's a kick-off for Marianne Ways' Kickstarter!
