Failing Forward in Comedy w/ Ryan McKee (Part 2)
from Book Is the Hook · host Eric Koester
Can you "fail forward"? Is it possible to fail at something and yet come out ahead? For Ryan McKee, the failure of the comedy magazine he'd founded stung hard -- it never gained much traction outside of a few places and what momentum it created in his early comedy career was wiped away with a cross country move to New York City in 2008 at the height of the Great Recession. And yet, just a few years later with the experiences and failures in his back pocket, he's now a two time Emmy-Winning Producer at the Late Late Show with James Corden creating content that makes us laugh, smile and sometimes wonder "what is going on inside that crazy brain." On the second part of our conversation, we'll discuss how to leverage failure -- much like Ryan did with the failure of Modest Proposal Magazine -- to build our own path and direction.
