Surprise! Maria Bamford Thinks You’re Special
Always original and always creating, Maria Bamford just released an Audible Original that’s unlike anything you’ve ever heard before.
This new two hour release is many things. It is a comedy special. It’s a self help guide. It’s a memoir, and it’s a life coaching sesh. It’s also really funny, and sweet and goofy and silly.
Bamford opens promising listeners that this 15 part self help guide will force yourself to write and perform a full hour of stand up comedy. And that is the framing of the two hour guide, but ultimately its not about how to perform comedy- its how to stop putting shit off, and be creative. If you ever find yourself doing anything to avoid working on that thing you call your passion, this one is for you. And its a look at her process and how she has always forced herself to perform comedy.
Maria Bamford is a creative genius. But the process of creating is not something that “comes easily” or “is enjoyable” for her. So, over the years, she’s invented a number of helpful techniques for tricking, shaming, coercing herself into doing things. You Are (A Comedy) Special is 15-step comedic send up of a self help guide that examines Maria’s approach to stand-up in a hilarious fashion. So if you’ve ever found yourself alphabetizing your cans of soup instead of, oh, writing that screenplay, you might find this book interesting. Or at least an entertaining distraction from that tough soup-alphabetizing work. YOUR ACTION—Start listening now!
