Despite the rise of platforms like TikTok, comedian Josh Johnson believes traditional television still holds significant value for comedians. He asserts that while digital platforms offer new avenues for exposure, established media outlets provide a different kind of impact and reach that cannot be replicated.

• Josh Johnson, a successful comedian on both social media and Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, was recently promoted to co-host.
• He emphasizes the enduring influence of "old systems" like TV, contrasting it with the perceived "one-size-fits-all" approach of past eras.
• Johnson suggests that a comedian's focus should remain on the "actual practice" of their craft and cultivating in-person connections with audiences, rather than solely chasing online metrics.
