This week on Good One, host Jesse David Fox takes a deep dive into one of his favorite topics: alt comedy!

Called the godmother of alternative comedy by The LA Times, Beth Lapides is the creator and host of Los Angeles’ legendary storytelling show UnCabaret. Now in its 28th year, UnCabaret is the un-homophobic, un-xenophobic, un-misogynistic and un-hacky place for comedy luminaries to tell stories ripped from the headlines of their lives.

Beth Lapides recently released a new audiobook, So You Need to Decide, that delivers a funny and heartfelt meditation on the power of decisions, the place for regret, and the space for grace. This series of intimate conversations with a diverse group of comedians, writers, and cultural icons revolves around five universal experiences: family, work, love, moving, and spirituality.
