In L.A., a lot of comics live here, but we don't get to spend that much time together because we've got to drive 45 minutes home, or do another set. So in San Francisco we can hang out, go for dinner - the community aspect of it is really lovely, as well as seeing people's shows that you don't normally get to see a longer version of.
Maria BamfordI just love that part of comedy, where you see somebody's jokes develop. They try something new to see what works, and I just love that part.
Maria BamfordI get sort of short with people and start grumbling and clearing my throat - in honor of my father - when I'm impatient. It's very charming.
