Beth Lapides

Writer, actor, host and comedy legend Beth Lapides has been referred to by The LA Times as the "Godmother of alternative comedy" for creating the long running UnCabaret—one of the first, if not the very first alt-comedy shows. Now she's released So You Need to Decide, an audiobook that's part memoir, part conversation about decision-making featuring discussions with some of your favorite comedians. We talked about growth, turning down Oprah, creating UnCabaret, changing your mind, dancing with chaos, MTV, accepting Tony's first offer and so much more. We also did a round of Just Me Or Everyone and Hey Go Fuck Yourself.
