Comedy Central needs to give him a late night talk show...

Dec 10th 2010
4
Am I the only one who thought he was dismissive of PSheer?
Dec 10th 2010
5
He was dismissive...
Dec 10th 2010
7
I doubt he has watched or will watch anything Scheer has done
Dec 10th 2010
8
I thought he started like that
Dec 11th 2010
10
      He is one miserable bastard. Makes me the podcast feel..
Dec 15th 2010
17
      Yeah, he was pretty up front about his lack of interest
Dec 22nd 2010
22
I agree with the dismissive part...

just downloaded a ton of episodes...
Dec 12th 2010
16
I need help finding an episode
Dec 15th 2010
18
I think you were right the first time (Mike Schmidt).
Dec 16th 2010
19
There are two types of episodes: the bullshit and the mindblowing truth
Dec 22nd 2010
21
Yeah, that Mike Destefano ep was raw
Dec 23rd 2010
24
That ep was amazing
Jan 01st 2011
28
I gotta catch up, I'm a few behind
Dec 23rd 2010
25
      yeah, and his addiction issues plus life with HIV
Dec 23rd 2010
27
I don't think Stewart Lee was mentioned, that one was great
Dec 23rd 2010
26
I like the two Carlos Mencia ones..
Jan 01st 2011
29
Sounds like this upcoming one with Gallagher should be a doozy...
Jan 28th 2011
30
gallagher is out of his mind
Jan 28th 2011
32
Gallagher is a racist, who knew? I mean the watermelon smashing didn't..
Jan 29th 2011
48
That has to be a joke, no fucking way he could or would want him
Jan 28th 2011
33
why wouldn't he?
Jan 28th 2011
34
It just seems ridiculous
Jan 28th 2011
35
      Marc can get people to talk about anything though
Jan 28th 2011
36
           I'm putting the Kevin Smith one in that catagory now
Jan 28th 2011
37
                yeah, I was even following him until that point. it's a shame.
Jan 28th 2011
38
It's definitely real, he was Tweeting about it before the interview...
Jan 28th 2011
40
not surprising
Jan 28th 2011
39
      I'm like 2 questions in and this is already
Jan 28th 2011
42
The Rollins interview was fantastic
Jan 28th 2011
31
he was on Conan a week or so ago, and KILLED IT
Jan 28th 2011
41
Was he there strictly to plug the podcast?
Jan 28th 2011
43
He was on the couch the whole time.
Jan 28th 2011
44
Saw him in Portland two nights ago and he was great...
Jan 28th 2011
45
      damn, you write for the Willy? I hate that rag.
Jan 28th 2011
46
           Haha...well, I mostly do music and various culture stuff...
Jan 28th 2011
47
Marc needs to come out with an audiobook of life sayings
Jan 29th 2011
49
I think that was the Rollins one.

HOLY SHIT @ this Gallagher episode
Jan 31st 2011
51
that was a tough listen
Jan 31st 2011
52
I mean, even his "old man" shtick is hacky
Jan 31st 2011
53
This fool said he owned the rights to the Ninja Turtles
Jan 31st 2011
54
      "so did you make money off of that?" "...no."
Jan 31st 2011
61
      I laughed out loud hard at that.
Feb 07th 2011
74
Lot of bitterness
Jan 31st 2011
55
      Exactly, he clearly has a story to tell
Jan 31st 2011
58
      The points that Marc made about "focus" and "career trajectory" early on
Jan 31st 2011
59
           that's the thing, there's no shame in how his career has turned out
Jan 31st 2011
60
                I'm not sure he even knows what he wants
Jan 31st 2011
64
                     Here's the thing. Comics with lasting legacies project THEIR perspective
Jan 31st 2011
66
This is amazing.
Jan 31st 2011
56
yo i just posted up on my fb "wtf is gallagher talking about?"
Jan 31st 2011
57
that's the only part that I could get behind him on
Jan 31st 2011
62
      It's like something out of a disaster movie
Jan 31st 2011
65
Now I'm wondering why Gallagher/his publicist thought
Jan 31st 2011
63
Marc Maron is being a bit of a dick nm
Jan 27th 2012
180
      I thought so too.
Jan 27th 2012
181
For the full Maron cannon; re: Gallager
Jan 31st 2011
67
Awww, come on, Gallagher!
Feb 01st 2011
68
Is it weird that I came across liking Gallagher more than I did before?
Feb 01st 2011
69
This Foley one is amazing
Feb 05th 2011
71
yeah, LOVED the Foley one. put the Kids in good context.
Mar 08th 2011

Feb 09th 2011

Star-Burns is a freak!
Mar 08th 2011

Mar 08th 2011
78
Listen to his interview on the GRandma's Virginity Podcast
Mar 08th 2011
80

Copped all of them via a torrent...
Jul 04th 2011
88
What would you like his business model to be?
Jul 05th 2011
89
      No.
Jul 05th 2011
90
           Well, in defense of Marc (RE: TAL)
Jul 05th 2011
91
                Fair enough.
Jul 05th 2011
92
Finally listened to the Tom Scharpling one today
Jul 05th 2011
93
Well, today (Todd Hanson) was crushing
Jul 07th 2011
94
Yeah, I'm listening now. It's so rough.
Jul 07th 2011
95
Wow
Jul 08th 2011
98
that was hard n/m
Jul 10th 2011
99
Oof, sad shit
Jul 18th 2011
100
Nick Thune's stories of Marc being mean to him were hilarious.
Jul 08th 2011
96
Agreed, that was a really good one
Jul 08th 2011
97
Loved the San Antonio ep
Aug 04th 2011
101
200 with a bang!
Aug 12th 2011
102
Norm MacDonald & Hannibal Burress this week.
Oct 17th 2011
103
Norm was amazing... when Marc gave him a chance to speak.
Oct 17th 2011
105
      Norm's generally a shy cat anyway
Oct 18th 2011
108
The Patrice Oneal ep
Oct 17th 2011
104
amazing. addicted to this dude talking
Oct 25th 2011
118
Am I the only one...
Oct 18th 2011
106
I used to enjoy those moments a lot....
Oct 18th 2011
107
well, I think some of it is working out material
Oct 18th 2011
109
I think the intro is what turned me off at first.
Oct 18th 2011
114
I have been listening to the show DESPITE Maron
Oct 18th 2011
110
Well he is.
Oct 18th 2011
111
Thanks to this topic I started listening to WTF
Oct 18th 2011
112
Norm MacDonald's was DAMN good.
Oct 18th 2011
113
yes, that was very sincere.
Oct 19th 2011
115
I have no problem with Carrot Top
Oct 24th 2011
116
The hypeman was annoying
Oct 24th 2011
117
Can we start a list of people Marc really does need to interview?
Nov 04th 2011
120
I'd add Colbert to your pipe dream list.
Nov 04th 2011
121
I'd figure he'd already done Nick DiPaolo.
Nov 07th 2011
126
Not that it's the same, but Maron was on Kevin Pollak's chat show
Nov 04th 2011
122
The run he's on, I don't think there's anyone he cant get
Nov 04th 2011
123
Don't Maron & Sandler have beef? Same with Stewart?
Nov 04th 2011
124
Maron made fun of Sandler for his low-brow movies
Nov 04th 2011
125
As with all Maron beefs, I think it's about jealousy with him & Jon
Nov 08th 2011
135
There was some sort of falling out after Maron took over SAST from Stewa...
Nov 08th 2011
136
Marc loves to tell the Sandler story
Nov 22nd 2011
148
I think it's safe to assume Maron has beef with everyone
Nov 07th 2011
130
??
Nov 07th 2011
129
I'd throw Larry the Cable Guy on there...
Nov 07th 2011
128
Absolutely.
Nov 07th 2011

Some possibilities...

Nov 15th 2011

139
It was interesting, just kinda one note
Nov 15th 2011

Dec 01st 2011
153
He has a lot banked.

Anyone check out PTP's hero Diablo Cody?
Feb 23rd 2012
192
she didn't seem defensive about it
Feb 23rd 2012
193
I thought she sorta was, but in an understanable way
Feb 23rd 2012
198
honestly, I had no real thoughts on her before, but this made me a fan
Feb 23rd 2012
196
      Young Adult made me respect her more than Juno did
Feb 23rd 2012
197
           yeah, her own appraisal of Juno as "outsider art" was great to hear
Feb 23rd 2012
203
It'd be nice if Big Jay could hook Marc up with Kevin Hart
Feb 23rd 2012
194
yeah, some really great stories
Feb 23rd 2012

Feb 23rd 2012

The David Cross ep was funny/weird/heart-wrenching all at once.
Apr 09th 2012
208
Was David Cross smoking crack public knowledge?
Apr 09th 2012
209
      I had no idea. Nor the stuff w/his dad.
Apr 09th 2012
210
      i don't think he's ever referenced crack

Maron's been on a roll lately with well-balanced, normal people
Apr 19th 2012

217
i had been waiting for this one for a while.
Apr 23rd 2012
218
For real man
Apr 27th 2012
233
Bob Zmuda tells Andy Kaufman stories
Apr 26th 2012
219
This interview is as annoying as his book
Apr 26th 2012
220
Just got to the part where he starts talking about the "real" Tony Clift...
Apr 26th 2012
221
I'm listening now. Maron doesn't sound like he's buying any of this.
Apr 26th 2012
222
This episode was interesting and obnoxious.
Apr 27th 2012
223
In the words of Maron: "COME ON!!!!!!!!"
Apr 27th 2012
226
Yeah I was fascinated but also felt like a hostage to his bullshit
Apr 27th 2012
231
I kinda believe him
May 02nd 2012
243
THE WORST PART of this episode
Jul 10th 2012
267
Chelsea Handler on Monday.
Apr 27th 2012
224
He's got Craig Ferguson banked too
Apr 27th 2012
225
Really?
Apr 30th 2012
237
Chelsea Handler does not belong anywhere near Steve Martins name
Apr 27th 2012
227
No, obviously.
Apr 27th 2012
228
RE: Chelsea Handler on Monday.
Apr 27th 2012
229
Nah of course he will.
Apr 27th 2012
230
      Do you listen to the Combat Jack Show?
Apr 27th 2012
232
           I don't...I'll check it out.
Apr 30th 2012
235
                He gets into Chapelle's Show, and some personal background too
Apr 30th 2012
240
So I just started listening
Apr 30th 2012
234
      Yeah, if you didn't like her before this interview
Apr 30th 2012
236
      Please expound.
Apr 30th 2012
238
      I didn't like her asking Maron how he makes his money
Apr 30th 2012
241
      She seems ok, so far. Very normal - oddly so.
Apr 30th 2012
239
      yeah, I dunno -- I liked her before, this only reaffirmed it for me
Apr 30th 2012
242
      Can't hate on this at all.
May 02nd 2012
244
      Should I listen?? I dont know if I can take it.
May 04th 2012

That was a VERY funny ep.
May 18th 2012
249
he played a pretty humble guy in All the Real Girls
May 18th 2012

It was a new episode...maybe a week old.

Basically Mike is a really messed up guy. Had a rough childhood, a bad relationship with a lot of his family, is a big guy who struggles with weight/food issues, but is really funny. I used to work with him on a show years ago, and obviously none of that would have come up in our day-to-day small talk, but I still found it interesting.

In response to Reply # 8


  

          

...but the more Aziz tossed stuff out, Marc was growing more and more impressed.
Marc was increasingly impressed, and by the time he was talking about the movie with Danny McBride, Maron was won over.
I already liked Aziz, but but the end it was clear Maron was impressed as well, which only made me like Aziz more having conquered the dragon.

With Paul, Marc was tolerant. When Paul mentioned the traveling improv troupe, it was like I heard Marc groan in his head.
As soon as Paul started talking about the abuse from his stepfather, Marc was on board.
He related to his suffering because he's a miserable prick - and I'm sure he'd agree.
Actually, when Paul was talking about the fighting, I was a little more interested myself.

awkward at times, but I rarely feel bad for him. The Greg Fitzsimmons podcast is like that too. Especially when both of them see a younger comedian doing work and getting paid. Like when they say shit like, "You probably made a lot of money doing that show." "Things are really going well for you." Even when it's their friends it seems weird.

But that's just the nature of most comedians I guess.

In Human Giant or anything else Paul had ever done.

The travelling improv troupe stuff did sound pretty terrible, but I was kind of amazed that those were his roots and that he was able to turn things around and link up with the kind of people he works with now. Marc seemed to take interest in all that in a 'misery loves company' sort of way.

The childhood stuff with the stepfather and the fighting was gold. I think they dwelled on that more because it was so much more interesting than Paul or his career.

And with Aziz, he basically said 'I didn't give a shit before but now I kind of like you' after the interview. Not those exact words, but close.

... I kinda wonder why he would have people on the show that he's unfamiliar with and seems completely uninterested in. But, in Marc's defense, Paul (who I like) did sound a bit like a hyperactive kid on there, which probably annoyed him.

The Rob Delaney episode (#55) is my favorite. His problems with alcohol in the past make for great conversation between those guys. They get pretty intense and start talking about bottoming out and having the will to keep going. amazing stuff.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

... He and Marc have been friends for like 20 years but at some point had a kind of passive-aggressive falling out, and this was essentially their reunion. Some great anecdotes on there, such as when they found a computer on the street sometime in the early 90s and Louis managed to fix it (apparently he's a electronics whiz, which surprised me) and find out all this stuff about the previous owner's past.

They also talk about an old screenplay Louis wrote for an unmade film called "The Beard" (synopsis: some beautiful, vain woman who works in show biz hits and kills a little girl with her car. The girl happens to have a beard. At the woman's trial, the victim's family explain that the girl willed herself to grow a beard in tribute to her late father. So the judge decrees that as punishment, the woman must have a real beard grafted onto her face and wear it for 10 years, thus ruining her career. He says he wrote a scene where she shaves it off and goes on the run from the cops, with helicopters chasing her and everything).

Honestly, I could've listened to those guys reminisce for way longer than two hours.

after seeing DeStefano live and seeing some interviews and stuff with him he seems about as real as it gets (and really funny. he said the opposite, but you get the sense that he really held back on LCS because of censorship). I'm sure he talked about his wife, right?

not sure if he's always been that way, but he definitely is now.

he talks to all types of comics, and gallagher certainly has his own slice of history/controversy in the comedy world.

35. "It just seems ridiculous"
In response to Reply # 34


          

I mean, I remember there being actual jokes in Gallagher's act (haven't seen it in years, and even then they were likely really old recordings), but what sticks out is the physical/prop absurd stuff, and I just don't know how much you can talk in a radio interview about a physical joke. And I'm sure he's a kook with a billion issues, but from what I've read, he's just so far gone and up his own ass that it has to be a losing battle to try and engage him.

But if it's real, it will be another one of those gritted-teeth episodes like Dane Cook and Mencia. It's just man...that's brave to sit in front of Gallagher and ask him anything that would get him in a rage. I imagine he's the sort of guy that carries a pistol or, at the least, a knife.

36. "Marc can get people to talk about anything though"
In response to Reply # 35


  

          

and usually when someone's act is addressed it's just a jumping off point for conversations about where the act comes from, why they got into comedy, and what stories/projects/controversies came out of their years in comedy. It actually helps that there's not a set structure to the conversations. In fact they seemingly pick up mid-conversation most of the time. I'm sure there's dozens of times where the act isn't even really addressed.

And I'm
>sure he's a kook with a billion issues, but from what I've
>read, he's just so far gone and up his own ass that it has to
>be a losing battle to try and engage him.
>

Perhaps, but if any interviewer has a chance it would be Marc. And also the times when someone didn't engage/got defensive (i.e. the first Mencia interview) they can actually show more of themselves.

That turned into such a hyper "active defensive" (if that's a term, antonym of passive aggressive?) rant, it was unreal.

... He re-told the "stalker" story and added some new details. But most of the time it seemed like he was just riffing with the audience. It was hard to tell what was a bit and what was free-flowing because all of it came across really conversational.

I also did a Q&A with him for the weekly paper here: http://www.wweek.com/portland/article-16762-marc_maron.html

the g/f has told me a few times I'm not allowed to read it, cuz half the time it just upsets me.

I think I've narrowed it down to Beth Slovic as the name I just won't read. sorry, I'm sure you don't really want to hear the negative feedback of an internet crank, but I figure I don't need to sugarcoat shit for an OKP. good job on the crossword and regular news item roundups, though, that's what keeps me coming back.

and I'm hoping to catch Maron while he's here, but I've been insanely lazy on getting tickets up to this point...

... so whatever issue you have with the news coverage, it isn't really my area (all my friends there are on the arts & culture side, I don't really know the news people too well). It's cool, though, I appreciate the honesty.

And the way you feel about WW is how I feel about the Mercury, except probably tenfold. I can't pick that shit up without getting irritated with SOMETHING. And that was true before I started freelancing for WW.

Of course, if they offered me a full-time job I'd take it tomorrow...

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

He had this one quote in this episode that really struck the heart of who he comes across as in his podcasts.

It was something like "wouldn't it be great if we had some male figure in our lives who had all the answers?" I forgot which episode that was. If any of y'all know the exact ep tell me.

He really should drop an audiobook. It could just be one with anecdotal life quotes from his show.

were incredibly important, for any career, actually. I mean, contrasting Letterman and Leno, who have made enduring careers for themselves because they set a singular goal, to Gallagher, who is a dried up, paranoid hack because he just followed the money without regard to where it came from, is a valuable fucking life lesson.

If I had to guess, I'd say 'relevance' but who knows with this cat. He might actually be crazy. There could be drug stuff going on. Maybe the real Gallaghar is tied to a water heater somewhere and his brother has just been going ham all these years.

Whatever it is, despite lots of a certain kind of success, he doesn't seem too happy about his career. Did he just expect to stay hot forever, or does he resent the fan base he's attracted on some level? He claims he's giving the people what they want, but when your act consists of off-color jokes lifted from e-mail forwards, and smashing fruit with a giant hammer, I can't imagine there not being a *little* contempt there.

66. "Here's the thing. Comics with lasting legacies project THEIR perspective"
In response to Reply # 64


  

          

in a relatable manner. Yes, they refine bits based on what works in certain shows, but they write based on their perspective on life and of society.

Comics that get hugely successful for a short period just reflect the audience back. And that might get you doing a shitton of HBO specials, or playing Madison Square Garden, but it doesn't guarantee shit beyond the time that you're popular. The audiences change, and you can't turn that mirror fast enough or make it big enough to fit everybody after they've gone their separate ways. It's like Maron said on the Patton (or was it Rollins) episode- eventually, you realize that not everybody has a little bit of you in them.

Gallagher had a chance to be the former- the original sledge-o-matic bit was every bit as satirical as Carlin's early "radio-man" bits. However, rather than focus on doing better satire, he just went to the damn hammer every show. And after a while, there's only one way you can go with the hammer- hit a bigger watermelon, or buy a bigger hammer. There's a fine line, to be sure.

is that science education is CLEARLY behind in the U.S., and journalists in this country should be doing a better job explaining the scientific reasons behind certain technological breakthroughs or pandemics or disasters. And that shit can be really interesting if told right.

Everything else, though, WHOOO. Batshit.

this was a good idea. Maron's job is essentially to get to the core of someone and Gallagher just has way too many layers built up to prevent that.

The 1/31 Adam Carolla podcast has Maron as a guest and he starts talking about Gallager then talks about his mania with the former host of Loveline.

That and "Who the fuck wants to work a state fair?"


brilliant.


What a loon. I would have probablly stopped going down that road when he said his bit about "the Arabs", but Marc likely saw that as his opening.

69. "Is it weird that I came across liking Gallagher more than I did before?"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

Which isn't to say I agree with him, because I don't. He's wrong. But I feel like I have a better understanding of him. Yes, he's bitter. Yes, he's old. And yes, he's ignorant (and has a disturbing prejudice against Arabs). But (again, minus the Arab thing. From here on out, when I make any statement, mentally interject "...minus the Arab thing..."), I feel like he's not coming from a place of anger. I think he's just saying whatever he thinks'll work to get him paid. He's not projecting an agenda. He's just manipulating the agendas of his shitty audience. Again, that's not right. And I don't agree with it. But it's weird that, through this interview, I see where he's coming from. I think that's one of the things Marc was searching for, and I think had he better parlayed a sense of "I am not attacking you" I think he would have unearthed this more. But then again, I wouldn't want Maron to change a thing, because I thought it was really great.

Gallagher reminds me of an article I just read about creative types (article here, if you have any interest: http://www.montrealgazette.com/news/world/Creative+people+more+cheat+says+study/4186599/story.html). Specifically this quote: "we show that creativity also helps in the rationalization process. It allows people to come up with a lot of excuses and justifications for why their behaviour isn't bad." I think Gallagher has completely convinced himself that what he's doing isn't offensive, in the sake of humor. I think he just doesn't understand it, because he has created the justification for it (playing to different audiences). I can even see the line of thought. It follows the path of indecency laws in a way, thinking that, if it meets the standards of the crowd, it's okay to use. It's that thinking of telling racist jokes in front of your friends that you'd never tell in a mixed crowd, just on a much larger scale.

Gallagher seems like a really fascinating person who is completely out of touch with contemporary society... or really any thing outside of Gallagher-World. I wish Marc could've some how gotten Gallagher to finish the interview. I came into the podcast with preconceived notions about the guy, based off of things like the AV Club interview and whatnot, but left with a different understanding of him. As I said, he's still wrong.... still bitter... and still seems like a complete dick, but I don't know... I think he's a really interesting person.

This is a petty complaint, I know. The live ones are entertaining, and allow him to interact with the fans, but the garage ones spoil because they are so in depth that I can't wait for the next one. Actually I wouldn't mind the live ones if all the comics that have been on a live one got to do a garage one too, but some of them just haven't yet.

In response to Reply # 84


  

          

but I do think there's always a slight disconnect between how funny it is live and how it translates to a recording, same with a lot of comedy albums. That can be a tough thing to figure out. I bet these are really great live, especially for just a few bucks at a place like the UCB.

And if it works for him, more power to you. You're worth whatever someone's willing to pay. I happily donate, support the app, and use his promo codes when buying from his sponsors.

I don't agree with a streaming service that doesn't allow you to download the episodes, though. $2/each podcast to download is kinda crazy, IMO. He should do what Carolla did - releasing a 2 DVD set of high quality digital files for like $40 of the first "season" (say the first 50-75 episodes or something) and that would be amazing and worth the price.

But again, if his model is working...then good for him. I just don't care to pay THAT much for it.

EDIT: Also, This American Life, which is hugely popular and more expensive to produce gets by with an app for a one time cost to stream EVERY episode. I don't NEED to download it, but if I'm paying a per month cost, then I should be able to. I don't always have reception to listen to the streamable episodes.

That show's already produced and paid for outside of the app. Not saying that I agree with how he handles old episodes, but you can't compare the business model of something recorded in a guy's garage with that of a nationally syndicated public radio program.

Mike Birbiglia interviews Marc. Lots of good stuff, especially agree with the "stop inventing things that happen in the future and then fearing or reacting to them as if they are real".

He's clearly been in a ton of therapy.

118. "amazing. addicted to this dude talking"
In response to Reply # 104


  

          

maybe because in a lot of ways my outlook on life has been both parallel and perpendicular to his in so many instances. but I just love to listen to him talk about women - where I'm like, man I could learn from you - and then race, where he's putting everything I've thought and experienced about race into more easily negotiable terms.

I've thought he was funny for a long time, but since Elephant in the Room, discovering Black Phillip and this, I'm like...do I have a hero all of a sudden? Or at least someone I can just listen to and nod my head along to on a natural level?

106. "Am I the only one..."

Who without fail skips past the opening monologue/diatribe and goes straight tpo the interview? I LOVE this show. It is without a doubt one of the top 3 podcasts I listen to. I am a premium member and have listened to probably 85% of the podcasts. However I don't particularly care for any of it outside of the interview.

107. "I used to enjoy those moments a lot...."
In response to Reply # 106


  

          

But now I feel like he's become too self aware in those segments. Like, it used to come from an honest place, but now it has a tinge of "Shit... I need to find something this week to be neurotic about." I think it's just that he's in a good place, both mentally and in career, and a lot of the stuff in the pre interview that I used to like sounded less like a character, and more like a person getting his thoughts out.

109. "well, I think some of it is working out material"
In response to Reply # 107


  

          

on the old eps, there are some germs of the jokes in the new album. So this is another place for him to flesh out material without any expectation of an audience reaction.

110. "I have been listening to the show DESPITE Maron"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

This post is helpful because it will key me into the good episodes but the random ones I have listened to made me feel like dude was an unfunny d-bag who is not a good interviewer.

1. CK Louis - enjoyed this one because I kind of worship CK right now and it was cool to see how he thinks. I also dug the passive aggressive beef between the two.

2. Aziz- I listened to this one because I am a fan of Aziz and thought Maron was pretty awful to him. Clearly he didn't know anything about Aziz and he couldn't accept that Aziz was born here and was fully American. You could tell Aziz won his respect by the end but who cares.

3. Amy Poehler - A fan of hers but in this interview I notice a trend of a lot of people telling stories of how Maron was a d-bag to them earlier in their career.

4. Jason Sudeikis - I don't know why I chose to listen to this one but it was terribly boring. 25 minutes in and still they were talking about Sudeikis in High School.


Also I learned to skip his opening. I will use this post to check out the good interviews.

In response to Reply # 0


  

          

I only have access to shows from June - present, and have been skipping around. I do like the format of the One on One's better than the live groups, but I like those too.
Marc's interview style is sometimes offputting because he always tries to clamp onto the the guest's fear, or play amature psychiatrist.
But as a whole I like the show and will continue to listen.

FYI Marc was interviewed last week by the Sklar brothers on thier padcast (Sklarboro Country) I have not listened yet but am interested to hear him being interviewed.

...and if you listen hard enough I say some things - Jeezy

116. "I have no problem with Carrot Top"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          


His humor isn't really for me, at least the prop stuff, but I don't begrudge the guy his success and I have always appreciated his ability to laugh at himself and get in on the joke of the TONS of other comics who pile on him. However in the beginning of this one, I'm at the 18 min mark, it seems like he has a flunky hype man there to alternately either pump him up or deflect with self deprecating shit about himself.

Weird beginning to this one but hey I actually listened to the first 15 minutes of it. haven't done that in a while.

In response to Reply # 120


          

Only "probably not"s from that list:

>Adam Sandler
Too guarded; politically, I think they are very opposite people.
>Eddie Murphy
Too famous to sit down in the garage; if it happened, it would be in a hotel or something.
>Steve Martin
Likely not aware of Maron, likely doesn't care to be.
>David Letterman
Way too guarded.

>Albert Brooks
Way too not interested in the comedy world any more.


>Tracy Morgan
As difficult as Maron is at interviewing black comics, this would require a third person like Patrice to be there.

In response to Reply # 135


  

          

compounded by Maron turning down the opportunity to do what eventually became Lewis Black's "Back in Black" segments on the Daily Show. Apparently, though, Maron has talked to Jon about doing the podcast, and whether he doesn't want to talk to Stewart that long or Stewart turned him down, it's unlikely to happen anytime soon.

It's a good display of his childish side acting out. He loves to see if someone's gonna co-sign him on making fun of AS. I listened to the Swardson interview and Nick kinda brushed it off like, "Hm, that was uncalled-for, on your part".

What's his difficulty in interviewing black comics? Why do you suggest a 3rd party needing to be there?

... I find that some of the best episodes feature successful comedians derided by other comics/fans (Carlos Mencia, Dane Cook, Gallagher, even though that was entertaining for entirely different reasons than the others).

In response to Reply # 120
Tue Nov-15-11 01:14 PM by Big Chief Rumbletumm

  

          

I'd love to hear Marc & him discuss the Terrier mess as well as Donal's early career.

As much as I love hearing stand-up stories I'd also like to hear some more people on the comedy periphery. Also more old school entertainers.

John Landis - he's such a "the Biz" guy he could tell some great stories.
Damon Wayans - one of the most underrated stand-ups ever
Sean Rouse - brilliantly dark stand-up
Norman Lear
Christopher Guest - one of my faves
Zuckers/Abrams/Proft
Seth McFarlane
Jeff Ross Part 2

The guy's way too self-deprecating and simple. It sounded like Marc kept trying to pull him out and extract more info. but it kept coming to nothing. Too bad because I've liked Adam Scott in everything I've seen & was eager to listen to this one.

142. "looks like we should all start tempering our guest lists"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          



Merrill Markoe & Mary Lynn Rajskub?

Maybe its just me, and I will admit I haven't yet listened to either so maybe I shouldn't judge...but well...I guess that's the point. I don't really CARE to listen to either.

1stly I've never understood the Letterman Worship
2ndlike Mary Lynn Rajskshkjsdf will always be the mildly retarded, almost visibly dirt-flecked girl standing off to the side on Mr. Show.

These are the guests? After that wholly uninteresting Adam Scott interview, all our comedy legend dream lists seem like we'll be waiting a looooong time.

Adam Scott and that's it.

I knew he'd run out of people to talk to.

He better call some dudes we haven't heard from in a long time. Martin Short, Alf, Bronson Pinchot, Yakoff Smirnov, shit somebody that'll mildly peek my interest.

In response to Reply # 142


          

Mark didn't/couldn't focus on Letterman more. Letterman would be the ultimate guest - but I really don't see it happening.

And Mary Lynn Rajskub was involved in the alternative comedy explosion of the early/mid 90's. I haven't listened yet - but I'm sure they talk about Uncabaret and Mr. Show.

I'll take this podcast over Todd Glass's (poor production values) or Corllas' (rich white guys are the most repressed guys).

146. "Merrill Markoe is a legend and a GOAT what exactly?!?"
In response to Reply # 144


  

          


I'm about as a big a comedy nerd as exists and I am only vaguely aware of her influence in one aspect of comedy, and show-biz in general, and that's Letterman's show. Like I said above I'm not a big Letterman fan , or a fan of Late Night Talk Shows at all really, so if that's what you're referring to then okay I'll cop to not being aware of how important she is. But the words "legend" and "GOAT" next to the words Merril Markoe? I feel like I'm waiting for the punchline...

No I know who she is, I was aware of her back in the mid 90s but she was NEVER funny imo. Not even accidentally.



>

I haven't listened to either of those shows. My biggest problem is that I only listen to wtf for the great in-depth guest interviews & live shows (except I routinely skip Eddie Pepitone's sets). I skip the opening monologue bit. So if the guest is lacking in interest for me there's no reason to check it.


I like Tod Glass' stand-up not so much Carolla. Lately my go to has been Sklarboro Country. Good guests, they're conisstently funny, and they do a polished radio show. The Earwolf & Nerdist sites have tons of content and Kevin Pollak's Chat Show has some gems.

Letterman. Letterman changed the ENTIRE comedy game in the 1980s. Watch them now and they seem time, but at the time it was world shifting comedy. I'm not overstating this.

10 years with Letterman makes you a LEGEND.

I don't care for the Skylar's because I really don't incidentally care about sports.

The Nerdist podcast could use less riffing, less people, and better mic'ing.

Kevin Pollacks Chat Show is consistently good - even when I don't really care about the guest. I've listened to about half of them now.

Do what i do when you don't care about a guest - just skip the episode

people who don't follow twitter comedy probably don't know Rob Delaney, but he had one of the best and most personal episodes (for a pretty impersonal style of comedy too). I'm not all that familiar with British comedy so I didn't know Stewart Lee at the time, but he had a really fascinating episode.

(without paying), but i also didn't find it to be that much more endearing an interview than one I heard earlier in which he displayed the same misogyny.

It was touching to hear him talk about the stress he was under, being the financial support for such a large group of people and hearing his tone of voice as he considered the results of his not making it. And I did laugh a bit when the convo (finally!) switched from hating on women to discussing white people and racism. I guess I see him as less of a villain and more a flawed human being after listening to this, but I'm still not to the point where I can understand why so many people considered themselves devoted fans.

Like how respectful and understanding he was for the girl who pressed charges on him for that high school sexual assault...how he kind of said how women had it unfair...etc.

I thought it humanized his caveman act since anyone else would have been, 'THAT'S WHY WOMEN SUCK...blah blah blah' but he gave a pretty feminist answer.

but it was interesting hearing about his family and the foster children.

this was definitely more personal than the nerdist interview which was more of a derrick interview than just don. the only thing i remember from that one was discussion about chevy chase.

As someone who has only seen his stand-up and never met him or seen an interview (I think), I never would've guessed. I actually would've liked to hear from Marc if he had heard rumors or people that guessed it. This kinda sheds a new light on his act. I wouldn't say it seemed like he was hiding something, but his jokes are mostly impersonal.

It was a comedian. I think some in the community knew, but just didn't say anything. Then again he seemingly wasn't even out to his friends, so who knows.

When I heard Marc say "The Todd Glass interview is something you NEED to hear" I kinda knew it would be his coming out - but only because someone told me he was. Woulda never guessed otherwise.

Even as they were saying Todd Glass is here and he has somethign iportant to tell us I kept waiting for him to say he had cancer or was molested or something but gay never even entered my mind at all.

I remember this guy from back then. Sad to hear he didn't really love it, he was funny. I'm not sure I get his beef with the Nerdist though. Is it because the term "nerd" has become too popular to use amongst the cool people or because they bumped him from their podcast?

A guy who YOU KNOW works at the Apple Store comes over to interview you on the podcast he's a sidekick on, and then the guy shits on where you live? You live in an apartment so you're not cool enough to be on a podcast that labels itself "The Nerdist"?

I'd be pissed at hypocrisy as well as the insult too.

But during the interview he was going off about that and Freaks & Geeks being inaccurate depictions of nerds as "cool."

The way they bumped him was a real dick move, and there's no reason to insult a guy's apartment.


LOL, and Marc Maron's episode of You Made It Weird is up on the nerdist site right now

I had heard most of the stuff he talked about before on another podcast. Some good stories involving Kinison. He's a lifer, man. Started doing stand-up when he was like 17.

I've always liked RM. Actually just bought tickets to see him here in ATL in March.

183. "this was how I felt"
In response to Reply # 179


  

          

it was interesting just because I like hearing the stories of any comedian if Maron's getting it from them because his questions are very direct and investigative, but I didn't come away from this one liking Ralphie much. I didn't know his life sucked so much but for a 39 year old his mentality about things seemed very much stuck in high school. the way he told a lot of his stories, it was like, well I can see why these people didn't like you very much.

I felt bad for him, but I didn't feel sorry. And I wasn't sure in the end which stories to believe and which stories to almost completely disregard.

Because he and Carolla were doing the show as a goofy, fun thing, and once they left and Rogan took Carolla's spot, it just got dumb and took itself too seriously.

A) I don't know who he is, but the living with Maron and Cross open pulled me in
B) He's one of those people who says "you know" at the end of 95% of his statements, and 100% of the time it turned out that I did NOT know. I don't think I've ever heard that many "you knows" in one 10 minute span in my life, and I live in the midwest.

Listening to it now, it's not bad. I admit she's grown on me a bit after all the Juno hype died down. She seems a bit defensive about the whole stripping thing, but I can't say I blame her.

She can't be too surprised people ask her about it, since it's how she was first known. But I thought her point about Channing Tatum was spot on, and there is a definite double standard for women, especially regarding sex work.

hearing her post-script on her book made me interested to read it, and I was eager to see Young Adult due to Jason Reitman, but now the attached pen name on that film will push me even more. she came off as really smart and self-aware in this interview to me.

It's just a well-made film. Not too cutesy, has enough heart but not enough to make an asshole character too sympathetic. Worth seeing.

cuz that was my thing with it, really -- it wasn't a horrible movie, but I didn't really get the buzz around it after I watched it, either, because it was far from perfect, and was really just a cutesy tale I might have loved at 17, but probably not at 19 lol. harmless, but overhyped.

so yeah, her own appraisal of it seemed spot on to me, which made me think Young Adult might be really be cool.

and yeah, Kevin Hart is high up on the list of episodes I'd like to happen. I'm sure Marc has tried. I'm sure, part of the problem with the touring comics, and Marc has alluded to this, with the touring comics is if they're not based in LA they probably don't go there a lot so it's tough for them to schedule.

Never heard of him, but he had some amazing stories. I would love to hear more from him.

Although his "every stripper is a fucked up horrible animal" thing got kinda knocked out by the stuff Diablo Cody said in her appearance.

haven't heard Diablo's episode, but I don't know that he was trying to make a blanket statement about strippers, just the ones he came in contact with. And I think that's a more damning statement about his employers than anything.

This is right on.

If the topic had been anything other than Kaufman, I doubt I could have made it through. But so much of the appeal there has to do with not knowing, so at some point I just gave up on the truth and enjoyed the show. Not really what WTF is about, but an interesting listen nonetheless.

In response to Reply # 219


  

          

I mean, acting like Tony is a real person? cmon. But I just found that hilarious that people are still propping up that myth. I'd definitely say he has a tendency to make everything sound more dramatic. Some of these stories, I mean who knows? But Andy is one of the only people where I'd entertain the possibility of truth. The Norman Wexler stuff is pretty unbelievable, but also if he's the influence for Clifton then it all makes sense.

In response to Reply # 219


  

          

is that Maron extended it into the Craig Finn ep. Now, sure, the interview was a little short, and so he had some time to fill, but seriously, 20 minutes with Zmuda in Tony Clifton? No, thank you.

But the Craig Finn interview was pretty good otherwise.

Maron's on a fucking roll lately. Who's next? Steve Martin?

He still hasn't put up his Neal Brennan episode, which I'm dying to hear cause I know it's going to be painful.

On his own podcast, Neal Brennan said him and Marc Maron had some sort of argument after a chance encounter. I'm not sure or just don't remember if the argument occurred during the course of the interview or not. I'm guessing Maron won't release that interview.

Brennan said they hashed it out.

Neal's weird. His beef was with Marc not respecting him as a comic and thinking of him to put him on the show. I mean I kinda get it (especially since Marc's interviewed so many up and comers, etc) but it's a weird beef to have. I think they squashed it though.

Plus if he put Gallagher up he'll put anything up.

I love any interview with Brennan because he'll always delve into Chappelle's Show. Doesn't shy away from it at all. Plus I think he's damn funny.

I'm apatheic about her because I don't fund her all that funny, but think it's interesting how famous she is with her three shoes on three different networks at the moment if my memory is correct about her being involved in television.

What about the interview is negative?

she says it herself in the interview -- she's not terribly complicated, she's just "playing" herself in movies + TV.

so yeah, this interview isn't really going to change perceptions, because it's just Chelsea acting like herself, which is what she always does...

I don't like her, and my one real beef with her is she sells out huge theaters without really working out her stand up, but hey, the demand is there.

Still, she's okay. Uber successful, and grateful for it. Can't hate that.

I've gone from avid listener to WTF to occasional based on the guests. As he gets further away from people he already knew or had past history with, or maybe it's his success, the interviews are just turning into back-slapping fests which I don't like.

He had tweeted about this one being recorded like a month ago and I had been checking for it since. Nothing really revealed by Wayne that a fan didn't already know other than Ke$ha's drug habits.

Sure, saying "Don't air my ep" is a dickhead move. But I thought his critique of Marc and younger comics or people with any form of success that may outweigh his own was pretty spot on.

I mean 10 minutes of "OH - YOU GOTTA GET IN THAT ASS AND FIDDLE WITH IT
MARC" would have been better than 50 minutes of it, IMHO.

I'm guessing he thought he had to be "on" for WTF. Like, its not that wack Comics Unleashed where the "conversation" is all bits from an act. The bits & pieces where his actual story shined through were really good though.

JB keeps in character...fine for a lot of things, but not for WTF.

I got through 10-15 mins of the interview before I'm like, "nah."

I sat through his whole Champs episode, I don't need any more of him.

I don't think that's really 'loud & wrong' from his perspective.

This is a dude who grew up actually *knowing* Johnny Cash.

And I'm sure for a dude who remembers being a kid & seeing that dude in full health/swagger must have appeared to be a superhero type to him.

I don't really blame him for feeling like that guy, the devoutly religious force of nature that he was, might not have been meant to be recording Danzig records while laying in a 3/4 reclined craftmatic bed with a mic in his face until he ran out of breath.

I loved the 'Hurt' cover but I don't think it's unfair to say that Rubin went to the well a few too many times making six or seven albums worth of that type of stuff while becoming increasingly frail & fighting off death.

Guaranteed he actually told Rick that to his face his thoughts on that a long time ago as well.

Thought that him sorta pointing out the 'stripped down' retro strategy not working for everybody (correctly pointing out that wasn't why people appreciated Neil Diamond's career) was kinda interesting too.

Almost had me feeling like Rick Rubin almost being like the mainstream version of Steve Albini at this point.

Then I looked for an album he'd produced in the past decade that I really liked & couldn't find one.

Maybe he should try to make rap records again because '99 Problems' was hot.

He recorded "Thirteen" just before he stopped going on the road.

By the last two, the "step-outs" were NiN's "softest" song, "Personal Jesus," and a Bruce Springsteen joint from "The Rising"- all three of which Johnny absolutely murdered it on. Give a re-listen to IV and V.

>Thought that him sorta pointing out the 'stripped down' retro

Now, that I can agree with. It worked really well with Cash because at his best, it was just him and the Tennessee Two, so you can strip back down to just guitars and you still have THAT voice, even in its decaying state.

like how Mila Kunis and Topher Grace have never seen That 70s Show, the guys at Giantbomb have no idea what their live shows or podcasts look /sound like, Denzel Washington says he was never really into watching movies he prefers theater, etc. I suppose part of it has to do with having been there, and having been paid, you're mostly just interested in whatever's next.

He acts like his father because he's his father's son, which means he likely has a sense of self & strong opinions that he's gonna express without concern for how they're received.

I didn't really notice any sense of self-delusion in terms of his place on the musical landscape, the things he said about other artist's work seemed to pretty much be giving his opinion as an avid music fan.

Carl keeps taking phone calls, kind of confused about why he's talking to THIS guy of guys...but Marc keeps total control of it and gets some great stories out of it. Mel was better, Carl seemed a little closer to the edge, but the way he tells stories is just top notch either way.

I like Mohr Stories and Adam Corolla's podcast is generally good for one or two shows a week (on slow weeks you notice he gets stuck on slightly uninteresting topics or guests and it can be a bit of a bummer since he's an always right kind of guy).

Both depend on the guest though I find Mohr is better at disarming his guests and leveling with them Maron style; Corolla's is basically morning talk radio without the radio schedule, it even goes up at drive time.


I haven't tested any of the other big ones out because these guys are already every other week or so consistent (as far as guests I care to hear from, anyway) and with my other podcasts I have just enough in my rotation that I can get all the new ones from the week and a few old ones from the Giantbomb podcast I'm finally catching up done just at work, it's nice and clean. I'd bet Greg Fitzsimmons' is alright.

It's a lot of Bombcast. I grabbed it on a whim and I'm serious when I say those dudes totally brought me back into video games, I'd basically become NBA 2K and that's it the past three years. The added bonus being that their archives basically span the time when I wasn't paying much attention, so I'm getting all these little nostalgia moments (oh yea, I remember when I never touched Modern Warfare 2 and nobody had any idea how big that release was going to be! oh yea, everyone WAS curious about Fez in 2008!) mixed in with actually learning how all that stuff shook out.

I always really dig the pods (much like Jay Mohr's) where he's got a personal history with the guest and the whole thing sort of turns into a two-way battle of who loathes themselves more.

Oh, and Sam Simon's quick line about Zmuda being invested in the idea of Kaufman as wildman was just about the best defenstration of all that IS ANDY ALIVE? bullshit ever.

Who can blame him?

But he's way too flirty on this episode.

303. "never been a big Jim Breuer fan but his episode was incredible"
In response to Reply # 0


  

          

went into it almost skeptically & it doesn't come out on fire but damn the stories as it builds were great: the SNL behind-the-scenes politic stuff is always intriguing, wanted it to stop there but then the family stuff was fantastic, the story on he/Chappelle getting fired off the TV show they were co-starring in that was premiering the next night while in Hollywood was amazing, that spinning into Chris Rock getting Chappelle's HBO deal and then the Cosby story at the end was epic.....damn near had me choked up at the end of Bill's message.

Just a great listen, hope I didn't spoil it for any who haven't heard it yet but felt it deserved an uppage of this post after just hearing it.

His stories and missing piece of the SNL/Lorne puzzle was pretty amazing.

I was on the fence in terms of wanting to listen to this because I incorrectly assumed the interview would consist of Maron passive agressively dissing Breuer since the two seem to have contrasting comedic styles. I'm listening to the SNL portion now and Maron was right in that it's very very brave for Jim to dish all he's dishing since some of the names he's dropping are still hold power in show business.

Spoiler for those who didn't listen to podcast, but I had no clue Maron was close to getting on SNL. Would be interesting to think of what Maron's career would have been like if he landed that gig.


**edit**

Listening to this Bruer's story, I gotta wonder what it's like for the black cast members on SNL in the past and current times as well. Does anyone know if Eddie Murphy wrote his own sketches on SNL back in the days?

man Eddie is one person I'd love to hear in a long-form free-flowing podcast interview & it probably has only slightly less chance of happening than Prince.

Chappelle will probably crack & do one sooner or later which will be a beautiful day.

you should read Live From New York... Basically an oral history told by its stars, writers, guests, etc. Even though Eddie isnt in the book they talk about him a bit because he saved the show pretty much. It seemed like once the show realized what they had everyone was writing for him. But he also wrote a lot of stuff too. The other black cast members definitely didnt get that treatment. Garrett Morris talks about how underused he was. It was so hard for him to get on sketches doing anything other than being the black guy. It just seemed like SNL was every man for themselves. You would have that star here and there that would pop up that everyone loved writing for. Belushi, Hartman, Eddie, etc. But other than that you had to write your own shit if you wanted to get on the air. It remained that way until the Will Ferrel cast. They were more about being a team. Wanting to put out quality rather than just putting themselves out there. A really good read. I went through it in about 4 days.

He is much better with comedians than musicians for sure, the John Cale one was pretty good tho I thought & the Huey Lewis one was surprisingly really good.

The Spin Magazine legend set however (Kirkwood, Yorke, Maynard Keenan, Homme) were all snoozers to varying degrees.

I think the last great ep before this was Cheech & Chong.

I might have liked that one just because I love her.

Also, wasn't the Michael McKean one after the C&C? That was another amazing one.

I don't really know her well at all but she was fucking great & I had no expectations going in.

But when recommending to folks (like my boy who I just put onto WTF a week or two ago) I had to go back to Cheech & Chong/Huey Lewis when pointing out ones that he would know that were bulletproof.

McKean was pretty good, not great to me tho, I had sorta reached my fill of that dry-wit/Best-in-Show crowd at the time I listened (Catherine O'Hara was right around that time as was another podcast with Shearer plus had just watched Mighty Wind which still isn't very funny to me).

I wanted to but never got around to it and none of the other names have grabbed me.

And now the Podcast app on iPhone keeps crashing for me after the Podcast 2.0 update and I don't want to re-subscribe to all my feeds and mark all the played podcasts in another app so I'm just waiting for an update. Unless I can delete the app and something in the phone will remember all that stuff.

So I'm falling behind as HELL on podcasts.

I don't remember if he plugged it during the Maron interview, but he has his own podcast called The Church of What's Happening Now and he also makes some great appearances on Joe Rogan's podcast.

I'm specifically talking about the portion about his issues on The Daily Show. Has he spoken publically about the reason for him leaving before? Props to him for being open about it since Jon Stewart is so respected.

The interview is solid, but in the last 30 minutes they get into their love lives and it gets to be pretty insightful into womanizing/loving women but not appreciating them as people on both their parts.

They covered much of the same ground in the champs.

I mean, I don't blame him necessarily.

It seems she was way too punitive and controlling during his childhood and young adult life. And by her showing up on some, "IM YOUR MANAGER NOW" lolz was a bad move. I don't know how I would feel as a grown ass man making decent amount of money having my moms treating/talking to me like im ten.

However, he did point out that since his father died so tragically its probably not a surprise she wanted to keep mega-tabs on him at all times.

Like Oprah asks her guests questions too but she counters them

And ppls relationships are their own so how can someone else speak on it

But we on a msg board so IMA do it

I got a family member who did the same shit...and unless its some extreme circumstances I think its some bitch shit
Dude ain't say I got molested...my mama beat me

She was too controlling so I dipped
Which OK, whatever
But then he goes to speak like its the worst shit ever

Nigga you grown! Just tell her no
Me and my dad didn't have the best relationship...he still piss me off... But to just ghost on your parents...
I wouldn't trust trust dude for shit

And nigga im looking at you sideways for halfway cosigning it

Imma sit back here counting my future Hollywood money while you let your parents/managers making you broke investing yo shit in Uncle Steves fish fry franchise and cousin Jo-Jo's co missionary!

Seriously though, if I remember right (both the champ interview and maron's interview bleed together in my head since they cover alot of the same shit) I felt like he tried and his step pops kinda deaded his confrontation.

I agree it's some mega-petty shit, but from the story he's said it's not as if she's apologetic in any way for her behavior and her attempts to re-connect have been intrusive by their very nature. (As opposed to letting him calm down when he first told her he aint want to see her, she shows up backstage at the biggest night of his career, lolz).

It's like, on one hand do you kinda 'take it' because society says you gotta love your fam and stay in a toxic relationship making you feel bad, or do you cut em from your life and be happy (knowing when they pass you might never have a chance to reconcile).

On Maron, he's always tries to bond over his own dysfunctional issues and his love/hate of his parents is well documented.

>Like Oprah asks

I discovered WTF a month ago and I'm completely addicted.

Listened to an older interview with Robin Williams. I think it was the first time I've heard Robin interviewed when his energy was very low key. They talked a lot about depression, very interesting and heartbreaking now that Robin has passed
