Watch The Booth at the End, then listen to this interview with the creator on the show, web content, TV history, and storytelling.
Opening
Biggest episode in SFC history, according to the hosts.
Main Topic
C. K. is doing interviews with blogs and podcasts because mainstream media doesn't cover web content.
He talks about his philosophy of telling stories differently than everyone else.
He set up the design and cinematography of the show with the internet (different business model, audience) and iPhones (small screens) in mind.

What is it about moral dilemmas that makes stories intriguing?
It is my belief that these moral dilemas are what storytelling is about.

It's like our soap; we scrub ourselves with stories.
Archivist Note
In 2018, The Booth at the End is not available for online streaming. Currently the best way to watch it is to purchase the series DVD on Amazon UK (only around $10), although make sure you can watch PAL DVDs with your player (often blocked in North America).
