Hey everybody I just want to take a moment to talk about a new thing I'm doing.

Over the years many of you reached out to me telling me how much you love the podcast,

but also wish there were more personalized takeaways and more in-depth interactions with our guests

to hear what they think about comedy.

This is why I'm now launching my new digital academy, Blueprint for Success.

With exclusive interviews and comedy philosophies of stars and industry veterans, personalized

versions of the Industry Standard Podcast, commercial-free, and one-on-one coaching time with me.

Blueprint for Success will give you the powerful tools that will take you up the elevator

beyond the competition and reach the highest possible levels to achieve your dreams.

We'll go on an express train of comedy

You can find out more about Blueprint for Success

and the comedy business on my website at Barrycats.com.

Together will take your career where you want it to go.
