02.01.2022 Hayley May Bracken, Podcast Producer and SUNG founder culture pick for this month is - Maria Bamford’s recent Audible release You Are (A Comedy) Special, a 15 step audiobook to help you ‘forcibly force yourself to do a full hour of stand up comedy’. The book gives genuine and hilarious insight into Bamford’s process and perfectly encapsulates her ability to spin comedy gold from stories about anxiety, depression, OCD and stints at inpatient psychiatric units. My first encou...nter with Bamford’s self described ‘mental health schtick’ was her 2007 web series The Maria Bamford Show, a low budget portrayal of her mental illness recovery at her parents home in Duluth, Minnesota. In the short lived series Bamford describes herself as a ‘marginally successful comedian who never got their own show.’ Nine years after the web series was cancelled, Bamford was given her own show, a considerably more expensive looking, slightly surreal, fictionalised version of her post-breakdown recovery titled Lady Dynamite. Watching Lady Dynamite is made all the sweeter for knowing how unexpected this late career pay-off was for Bamford. Her status as a cult comic is evident in the incredible cast and cameos throughout the show’s two seasons. Listen and watch Maria Bamford content if you like your comedy off-kilter, based on vulnerable experiences and delivered in constantly varying vocal inflections. See more
