In the second episode of Comedy Means Business, we’re talking Long Live the State, a new documentary on the iconic sketch group The State. Formed at NYU in the late 1980s, this is a group that’s produced countless names that any comedy fan knows — David Wain, Ken Marino, Michael Showalter, Joe Lo Truglio, Michael Ian Black, Thomas Lennon and more. Recently premiering at the Tribeca Festival, the doc delves into the highs and lows of The State’s experience making their cult hit MTV sketch series of the same name, and their enduring legacy in comedy. With us to unpack it all, we have The State’s David Wain, Ken Marino, and Joe Lo Truglio, as well as filmmaker Matthew Perniciaro.
