This week, Laura returns to the Comedy Cellar to talk with Aaron Nystrup, a manager and server who has been working at the iconic club for 10 years. Nystrup talks about what it’s like to hear hours of comedy night after night, how he ended up onstage drunkenly singing with Dave Chappelle, and just what goes on at the Cellar’s famed comedians’ table.
