I'm not sure how I feel about the concept of recaps. We're not recap-heavy here at Laughspin. In fact, the only show we currently recap is Community. Some sites love recaps. I'm skeptical. I'm not sure they add any value. Regardless, I've recapped the first episode of Maron,...
AUSTIN -- The opening night of Austin’s second annual Moontower Comedy & Oddity Festival -- a four-day event spanning 12 venues and featuring 98 shows! -- brought audiences in close quarters with such comedy heavyweights as Marc Maron, Anthony Jeselnik, Maria Bamford and...
