Maria Bamford | Live from Here with Chris Thile

[@newearth2920]

Maria Bamford is one of the best things to ever happen in the realm of people. She personifies every good thing humanity has to offer.

She spews self indulgent twaddle ,, which is what I do also but I don't get paid for it. That was not a slam, I do enjoy her.

[@rusty0303]

She's definitely funny. Idk about all that other stuff. All of her characters are always victimizing her. That could be a sign of some deep self-centeredness.

[@Sunny-qd4jq]

New Earth How do you really feel about her?

[@amandaelizabeth7943]

Hell yes she does

[@jamesbns7261]

Yes. More always.

[@amoswarren2123]

Lordy, the stone-faced lady dead front center....impenetrable ice maiden in front of an absolutely brilliant comedic performance.

[@_MSD75_]

I wish I could find a way to show people how much I love them, despite all my words and actions. Love this woman. She's fantastic.

[@mostevokish]

yep

[@thrashpondopons2776]

I think that is my new mantra!

[@fistyann8434]

The Maria Bamford Show helped me through a wicked hard time. She is The. Best.

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Yep, gotta love you some of The Bammer for sure.

[@Humblemumble7]

Fisty. . . . Ann. . . .? Yeah, wicked hard time indeed

[@KeelyBurnMusic]

"Saturation Point" needs to be a full song, with instrumental accompaniment and everything. I've been singing it to myself ever since I saw this. Great advice and funny to boot!

[@5RRRtarRiver]

The group IGORRR really needs a shot at this

[@chasbodaniels1744]

.... or maybe have Garfunkel and Oates take a stab at scoring it.

[@alv134mommy]

Yes, I need to have this song so I can play it in my head every time I reach this point

[@modelleg]

She's probably the most well-adjusted person in the crowd.

[@angelalovell5669]

Maria Bamford is my shiny golden god, I worship her anxious hilarity and absolute mastery of voices and vulnerability.

[@kirknelson407]

Maria is one of the best comedy writers I’ve ever seen. And her performance is one of a kind. She inspires me.

[@A_A_K_123]

Maria is a unique, magical gift to humanity. Do we deserve her? My red dragon is staring at me, smiling ambiguously, nodding his head, flapping his wings, and puffing little fireballs of hope.

[@amystery7754]

This girl has my heart, always will. You gotta listen with a musician's ear. She's got the chops. She's got the cred. She's a reliable reporter from American life.

[@booklist123123]

If I remember right she can play the violin very well.

[@bimscutney1242]

Listening to Maria Bamford is like listening to jazz. In a good way. She is my spirit animal.

[@videt7459]

It's amazing that someone with such epically severe stage fright gets up on stage over and over.

[@ursaminorjim]

So not only did I get to cackle maniacally to the point of tears, I _also_ got to _LEARN_ something! You're a treasure, Maria Bamford. Thank you!

[@DanButcher303]

I love Maria's comedy so darn much. Had the opportunity to meet her last year. She was incredibly nice and very generous with her time.

[@washyrose5904]

I met her and Jackie when they came through Portland and goddamnit I cried.

[@DanButcher303]

@@washyrose5904 That's awesome. Im glad you were able to have that experience. She is so so so funny

[@VirtualWoodshed]

So amazing. Maria Bamford and Dimitri Martin. Two of the greatest and most underrated comic geniuses of our time. 🙏🏻

[@flyfish1995]

I love this woman. Hands down the most underrated talent around today.

[@washyrose5904]

This is part of the set she did when I saw her during her most recent tour. Probably my favorite set she’s ever done. Really hope we get a CD of that set. She just gets better and better.

[@poppybell8217]

Man, she is BRAVE as hell!!! Love it

[@IamThatiAm420]

Maria's personality motivates me to work through depression.

[@ThomasMeneses-bl9ce]

Love you Maria you're one of the most special people ever

[@23coffee60]

I love all the positive comments about Maria.

[@XTCMATT]

My favorite comic of all time. Love Maria Bamford!

[@JimKulakowski]

Love Maria. I laughed uncontrollably during the scream-o part. The genius is that this is actually how a musician would really write a bridge - present the melody then embellish. Brilliant.

[@ChrisDragotta]

She plays violin.

[@mrwest5552]

i thought i was brave, she is truly brave

[@isoldewasduhn]

Wow, thanks Maria, I came here to binge YT because of a Saturation Point. Now I feel better.

[@seanseanseanseansean]

What a trip she is. I've listened to each of her routines, twice. I admire that fearless delivery of strange.

[@geraldfrank1630]

Talk about not knowing what’s next! 👌👏👏🙏

[@SANITIZEDINC]

The unparalleled, brilliant and hilarious comedic stylings of Maria Bamford, American treasure. I adore her. She makes me feel less alone in the world.

[@ChubbyUnicorn]

Maria is Genius, Truth, courage personified.

[@mariacromero]

“I love you, you love me, let’s just shut up!” 😂🤣

[@davissae]

Holy Christ this is original, creative, and relateable

[@sweetpeanmolly]

She’s absolutely brilliant!

[@maryrosekent8223]

Maria Bamford channels the universe and it’s fascinating and funny.

[@revk8611]

LOVE THE SONG!!!!!

[@robzen2713]

The coloring book joke gave me joy.

[@darrylcalder]

i said things you said things we said things. I SAID THINGS YOU SAID THINGS WEEE SAAAIIID THIIIIINGS!!

[@kristinawalla]

😂🎯

[@herewegokids7]

That is freaking adorable

[@aldon_worldwarden]

Maria is a genius!

[@johnh4143]

Best 9 minutes of the day

[@itsgaylebitxh]

Her voice is so magical. Her stories are relatable, but she reminds me of the fairy from Scrooge.

[@TheSassback]

Love, love, love, love, love love!

[@alv134mommy]

My absolute favorite comedian, of all time, I loved her when I was younger, I love her now as a 45-year-old woman even more, I feel like as I get smarter, her comedy gets funnier and funnier

[@Brettyboy101]

She is brilliant, one of a kind❤

[@MichaelWilliams-mr2kv]

(Not michael)She can talk to her mother for over 10 mins before saturation point. Im impressed. I havent talked to my mother for a year & im still triggered. Love this lady. She puts a smiley face sticker on my mental boo boos.

[@TheCuriousSeekers]

your mind is a Wonder to marvel at. Love you

[@ow5223]

You are awesome Maria!! One of the best.

[@hipporage18]

I love Maria despite all my words and actions.

[@hausofvishy8695]

This brilliant woman!!🦄

[@nicksurfs1]

I thought I was gonna watch some comedy because I'm depressed AF but unexpectedly learned coping skills. Saturation point.

[@jada90]

[@amytripp5476]

[@awoFalase]

[@thomasroarty706]

[@kinior13]

[@christinescherrer877]

I could add this more than once.

[@philgood8089]

[@rightweaponry908]

[@alzychoze6591]

[@technicolorgiallo1111]

10/10!

[@punchbrothers]

Thanks so much for watching clips of Live From Here, if you enjoy this checkout Chris Thile and Punch Brothers new musical variety show, The Energy Curfew Music Hour. Season one is streaming here: bit.ly/ecmh-season1

[@stefanmarraccini8646]

Among my people a sighting of Nick Nolte bearing a submarine sandwich is cause for a fortnight of celebration. A good omen indeed. It has been this way since 48 Hours.

[@zappaf]

love her

[@blujay1608]

Nuts, I already liked this video. :D I've been following her since Comedy Central Presents!

[@chasbodaniels1744]

Man, I do love me some Bammer.

[@MaxOakland]

I thought her TV show was awesome!! I wish it was still on

[@mixtape2185]

YESS METAL SCREAM :D

[@juancpgo]

1:55 that bit was the best

[@Inkkink]

I love Maria. Makes me laugh.

[@tofumar]

Is that the guy from The Punch Brothers in the background?

[@lapointdaniel]

The red dragon is giving its best effort. Great ideas.

[@TeeMan4568]

She us SO effing hilarious!

[@Musicmonk84]

Man that cell phone scroller in the front and center seat was an awkward cut 😂

[@Humblemumble7]

What in the Prozac did I just watch?

[@kalevala29]

"It's saturation point." 😄

[@xusemoi]

Yes!

[@jonhohensee3258]

She said that line about loving people in another "Live From Here" show.

[@FourEyesFive]

Maria needs to write a fucking book

[@purpura7053]

gosh the woman in red jacket in front row looks so unamused ._. Maria youre awesome

[@slamcrank]

YES.... that woman actually made me angry. She was on her freaking phone when they first showed her. Then every other time she was just completely unamused and unappreciative. I had to sing Saturation Point in order not to scream at her through the screen.

[@billhillard]

Yeah Maria does rule.

[@simonrandall5471]

Bam!

[@mostevokish]

I love you, you love me, let's just shut up!

[@beetalius]

My wife is also passive aggressive. Completely relate.

[@debarooo22]

Mindfulless retreat 🙃

[@briane596able]

I feel like she’s breaking the 4th wall of comedy like Seinfeld did in the 90s. (So good).

[@Person1865]

Is Carol Grisham real?

[@squeedum4893]

Tour de Force

[@cleopowell5207]

It’s saturation pointtttt 😂

[@piginawar]

8 mins 9 secs: the woman in the front row never reaches saturation point, she feels nothing.

[@bobobobbybooboo7848]

Booom! Comment 101 Bam!

[@littleghostfilms3012]

The woman in the front row with the red jacket clearly did not get the memo that she was allowed to laugh.

[@rrss5497]

Oh, ye gods, Maria! If you ever want to leave your spouse, or just mess around, I am here for you! Why didn't YT send me links before?!?

[@GhengisFreud]

the library of congress shoud preserve maria bamford in carbonite for cultural and artistic significance

[@arieswaters]

Okay the whole song Part the so-called singing take that out please

[@zenbear4149]

Saw Maria around this same time. She headlined a long set in a mid sized casino club. It was of course mainly about her mental illness. Unfortunately about halfway through, it went from being funny and meta to just a woman with severe mental illness breaking down completely on stage in front of several hundred people. Really uncomfortable and even disturbing.
