Legendary comedian Maria Bamford joins to share the downsides of performative generosity, why it’s important to be transparent about money, demystifying 12 step programs as an atheist, and why extra long benefit shows have gotta stop.

He’s told jokes on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Comedy Central, Netflix’s Bonding, Don’t Tell, The Real Housewives of New York for some reason, and he was a JFL New Face in 2022. He’s acted in Billy Crystal’s Here Today, Hustlers, The Last OG, and in his theater days shared the stage with some people who’ve gone on to become huge real estate agents. You can see him post the kind of crowdwork clips that are arguably destroying the artform of stand-up comedy everywhere @gianmarcosoresi and he obviously has a podcast called The Downside with Gianmarco Soresi.🎤 #GianmarcoSoresi #StandUp #Comedy
