CW: This episode discusses suicide and abortion.
"The Comedy Store is a dark temple of fear and pain that to this day I believe is built over one of the gates to Hell.” - Marc Maron
It might surprise some to learn that a place meant to bring laughter to audiences every night is the same place hiding some DARK secrets. We're talking MOB secrets. MURDER secrets. Add in some of the funniest people on the planet, a labor strike, LOTS of cocaine and a queen bee that would give even Regina George a run for her money, and you've got the world-famous Comedy Store. Oh, and it's haunted AF.
