The Wondery team is the best in the business at developing audiences. Together we will bring more laughter to those listeners and opportunity to the comedy community,” said Mike Bertolina, CEO of All Things Comedy

Al Madrigal, Co-Founder of All Things Comedy, adds “When we conceived of ATC our goal was simple. We wanted to protect our fellow comedians from losing control of their IP and band together to promote one another. This partnership with Wondery takes that vision to a supercharged level. ATC comedians are now fully equipped and ready to take control of their own business.”
