Eric Kaufmann is an author, journalist and Professor of Politics at Birkbeck College, University of London. Alingon Mitra is a stand up comedian whose credits include Conan, Colbert, and Comedy Central.

For 30 years, New York's legendary Comedy Cellar has served as the

launching pad for greatest stand up comedians in the world. Colin Quinn, Dave Chappelle, Ray Romano, Dave Attell, Chris Rock, Jon Stewart, Dane Cook, Robert Kelly and Greg Giraldo are just a few of the comedians who began as Cellar regulars.

This kibitzing (an inspiration for Comedy Central's Tough Crowd), has always been a private affair... until now.
