WTF with Marc Maron (it's a podcast)

xp to PK: I guess that could swing either way, but I'll assume the worse in Corolla bc I am definitely not listening to his podcast

xp I think Garlin is done after that Ben Tench ep, and it's probably a good thing. Garlin's podcast had the greatest dynamic range of anything I listened to. You could get 'The Chris Farley Show' version of Garlin on any episode.

i meant Garlin's WTF episode, but yeah.

ah, yeah. the bit in the beginning was good.

Excited to listen to that Garlin episode.

Not proud of it, but I actually used to listen to Carolla's podcast. Before it became this insufferable, hateful thing it was often a really enjoyable listen; usually two sharp, funny people having substantial conversations about life, success and happiness. Garlin's appearance on that show five years ago or so was really hilarious.

WTF can be compelling as hell when he clicks into lockgroove with a guest and they just go, as I mentioned upthread a few years ago. Like the Michael Keaton ep, or surprising moments when Jay Mohr is on and they obsess over classic Hollywood for a while

michael keaton ep is so good

Kevin Allison's telling of how The State finally dissolved may be common knowledge, but it's the first time I ever heard the stories before. Like, lol @ them for jumping to CBS after MTV had offered them five more seasons and were about to be in 25M more homes. They ruined themselves!

I remember the live one with Jeff Tambor as having some real laugh out loud moments.

In the Katz and Tambour interviews you could tell Maron was annoyed by all the jokes

he says "expresso"

"excape" as well

Well done, poster-making Marc Maron fan. Well done.

Kim Gordon interview is up--

of course it's 70% about Maron talking about being intimidated that he doesn't know enoguh about SY, art, Branca, etc.

It seems weirdly truncated too--following Gordon's career only up until she meets Thurston and then jumping to the tour with Neil Young

I thought it was great, partly because I'd feared it would be a disaster.

Who are her guys?

I thought the Joe Swanberg ep was pretty good

it was ok to listen to but marc was so enamored with the fella

Maron's 90s hierarchy of NYC cool:

Bands - SY, Iggy
.
.
.
.
Standups / Performance artists
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
Sketch Comedy

I'm sure "Charismatic Drug Addicts of no particular talent" are somewhere just below Iggy

The Unbreakable Kimmy Gordon interview wasn't bad!

MICK FUCKING JAGGER

He's like a nervous little girl in the lead up to this, it's so funny

Prob had a pillow on his lap

It's just a 10-minute phone call, but I wouldn't be shocked

cant wait to hear this

Mick is such a pro, giving the impression that he knows who Maron is but probably only having been told "This is a big podcast."

WHO ARE MICK'S GUYS?

lol

omg

i wasn't prepared for how hard i started fangirling right along with maron once the call really happened

his voice was so high & giggly & you cant control it obv but

lool that was p great

"you need to come to anuvva show marc"

YEAH WELL IF YOU DIDNT CHARGE A THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR A SHOW MAYBE YOUR NORMAL COOL FANS COULD COME SEE YOU MORE

*sob*

He posted on twitter tonight that he'll be talking to Keith next Monday.

!

10 minutes again yeah?

Dunno. This is all we have to go on.

imagine if it was a full hour

i would die

I'd be concerned for his sobriety if he talks to Keith for more than 10 minutes.

haha

lol Maron starts asking Keith, "Who are your..." and gets interrupted

KEITH FUCKING RICHARDS

Why would M & K do Maron and not Stern?

"What the hell just happened?"

xpost Because Stern is a disgrace to carbon based life forms?

Amazed Keef lasted as long as he did through Marc's torrential fangirling

amber tamblyn interview was somewhat interesting, though I wish she had said "I wrote that poem from the perspective of Sharon tate's unborn child" earlier so I could've turned it off @ that pt + saved some time

Maron turned into Randee of the Redwoods talking to Keith. That was fun.

Only got partway into the Amber Tamblyn interview (not because it wasn't good). Hilarious moment when Marc says what any poet wants to hear from an interviewer: "So, I read some of your book, and I've written poems myself.'

I was surprised he didn't mention that he used to live with Joshua Clover again

Henry Winkler, massive Sia fan. Who knew?

Seriously, love love LOVE this interview on every level, particularly as a Happy Days stan

winkler's been on a couple of podcasts i listen to recently and he seems like a genuinely fantastic guy
