Around 2008, his mop top, calm demeanor, and deceptively teenaged looks made Demitri Martin a fixture as a “youth correspondent” on Comedy Central’s The Daily Show . While a glance at the now-38-year-old’s driver’s license might challenge the moniker, his comedy stylings fully support it. Combining animation, songwriting, and info-graphics, Martin’s approach is tailor-made for the multi-media and DIY-savvy millennial generation, earning him his own spinoff, Important Things . See what we mean in this episode—and who knows? It may whet your appetite for his appearance at the Newmark this weekend.
