From Parking Lots to Arenas with Maggie Hughes DePalo | The Pat McGann Show Ep. 25
Pat McGann sits down with Chicago comedian Maggie Hughes DePalo to talk about the totally sensible decision to quit a stable job, raise kids, and pursue stand-up at the same time. They get into building a South Side comedy scene from scratch, doing parking lot shows during COVID, and somehow ending up opening for Nate Bargatze in an arena like that’s a normal Tuesday.
Also discussed: Catholic school flashbacks, grade school basketball grudges that never die, Valentine’s Day in Indianapolis (surprisingly intense), and a formal motion to make Michael Jordan’s birthday a civic holiday.
