- The brilliant and frenetic comedian Maria Bamford has always wanted to belong. In her new book, Sure, I’ll Join Your Cult, she shares her stories of navigating through the wild world of show business, psychiatric institutions, and everything in between while on her quest to fit in. Bamford will sit down at Chicago Humanities with superstar comedianAparna Nancherla, author of Unreliable Narrator and expert on impostor syndrome, to get real about relationships, mental illness, the trials of stand-up comedy, and both of their books. Chicago’s own Greta Johnsen (of WBEZ’s Nerdette podcast) will moderate this conversation between two daring voices, as they take audiences on a journey of self-acceptance, belonging, and hilarity.
This program is presented as part of the Roger & Elaine Haydock Humor Series.

It’s hysterical that the host sounds exactly like one of the voices Maria does in her comedy. 😂
I'm glad I read that right at the start. 😂
so true!!! I love it.
Omigosh! I was thinking that too 😅
I've read/listened to both these books repeatedly. So much insight! Extraordinary women.
aparna and maria need to do more shows together
Did an involuntary yell of joy when I saw this video! Two of my ultimate favorites. I listened to the audiobook version of Maria Bamford's book a couple months ago and it was excellent, definitely recommend listening to it as you get to hear her wonderful narrations and voices and impressions. Can't wait to check out Aparna's book too! Just ordered it
"what a loaded question" already cracking up
OMG, it's the perfect pairing! More, please!
what a nice surprise, we love maria bamford
maria using "the voice" is my favourite thing. i pray she does a bene gesserit parody with it or something.
Two funny voices, two funny ladies.
I concur. Self-loathing can drive me to push myselfto do better things but it can also beat the crap out of me. I guess if it worked only in one direction I would be a sociopath. I'm ok with it.
So good!
I would love to be friends with Maria. Because shoes. Fabulous shoes. 👠
I came for Maria. I could live without the host tbh
wow, i'm so inspired to start parking illegally now! great call!
more than i do already. i'm on it

I just hope they can use their comedy for social change.
