The conversation includes:
-
Fargo’s Funniest Finals: Aaron Templin, owner of Front Street Taproom and The Cellar, discusses the climax of the “Fargo’s Funniest” competition. He shares the history of The Cellar as a underground comedy staple and previews the final shows where the audience votes to crown the local champion.
