MAUREEN LANGAN interviews academics to alcoholics. She is an award-winning broadcaster and international standup comic. She combines the curiosity of a journalist with the wit of a comic. Jerry Stiller said, “Maureen is to comedy what James Brown is to soul!" Fun. Heart. Smart.
Whoever saves a soul, saves the world.
