Just for Laughs Festival: Maria Bamford

By Audible

Maria Bamford was named Breakout Comedy Star of the Year at the 2016 Just For Laughs comedy festival because she’s an amazing comedian. Hold On with Eugene Mirman is an amazing audio show where comedians join Eugene in the studio and on stage to break down funny stories they've told. In this special live episode from the festival in Montreal, Eugene broke out of the studio to bring Maria Bamford up on stage to tell a true story and answer some questions about it. Maria recounted the trials and tribulations of making a comedy career work amidst struggles with mental illness.

In each episode of the Audible Comedy series Hold On, host Eugene Mirman (Bob's Burgers, The Flight of the Conchords) pauses the funny stories of comedians and performers to get the skinny behind the story. Featured and future guests include: Jim Gaffigan, "Weird Al" Yankovic, Lisa Lampanelli, Mike Birbiglia, Reggie Watts, Kumail Nanjiani, Andy Richter, Hasan Minhaj, John Mulaney, and more! Enjoy new episodes weekly on Audible Channels.
