most of it was him winning maron over by being so hard on himself

I'm about halfway through it and I'm enjoying the conversation.

Wow, I don't really follow Chelsea Handler at all, but I was shocked to see that she was only a year older than me. She has the wrecked voice of a 47 year-old that smokes constantly.

i thought the chelsea handler convo was great! she basically turned the tables on him.
― goole, Tuesday, 5 June 2012 19:54 (twelve years ago) link
haha yeah i kinda had the same reaction (she's a year older than me, too). tbf i figured she was a 42 year old who takes pretty dece care of herself.

just the thought of her makes me IA, I couldn't take a whole interview
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Tuesday, 5 June 2012 19:55 (twelve years ago) link
I'm only ten minutes into her interview and she sounds like an awful person so far. Her dismissive, "is this your main source of income" to Marc re: the podcast was pretty awful.

Like I said, I'm just getting into it, but it doesn't read that way at all so far.
― heated debate over derpy hooves (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Tuesday, 5 June 2012 19:57 (twelve years ago) link
very small doses with that one, for me. four minutes of her monologue once a week or so and i'm like ok igi.
haven't heard her WTF yet though
― it's smdh time in America (will), Tuesday, 5 June 2012 19:58 (twelve years ago) link
okay, I guess you can start to figure out her being mean to Marc is her "thing" when she says, "you do understand what sex is, right?". but she still sounds pretty awful to me.

the rick shapiro interview was old school WTF. some stand up i've never heard of being semi-pissed at Maron and talking about a bodybuilder mouth-raping him.
― Hauntingly Unemployed American (President Keyes), Tuesday, 5 June 2012 23:03 (twelve years ago) link
nah she genuinely doesn't understand that it's free
― ┗|∵|┓ (sic), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 00:09 (twelve years ago) link
I love the WTF episodes with truly big-time comedians (Russell Peters, Patton Oswalt, Handler) and Maron's combination of envy and judgment. The Handler one made for such an enjoyably tense interview because it was clear that she hadn't heard the podcast and didn't know how it worked.
― Odd Spice (Eazy), Wednesday, 6 June 2012 03:12 (twelve years ago) link
Did anyone here listen to that new Marc and Tom ep? I was wondering what maron said about his phone call with Jon stewart
― Hauntingly Unemployed American (President Keyes), Saturday, 9 June 2012 13:38 (twelve years ago) link
Stewart basically told Maron that Maron had really been a dick to Stewart back in the day & he'd rather not go on the show. But he's welcome to grab a coffee anytime.
ie you don't get to work this out on your show. talk to me in person, like a grownup & we'll see what happens.
can't blame him. maron has that "well if I'm sorry that makes it okay" thing that only goes so far.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Saturday, 9 June 2012 14:48 (twelve years ago) link
...there was also the conclusion drawn that just because you are ready to apologize doesn't mean the other person is ready to forgive. Scharpling made noises of complete understanding and didn't mention PF Tompkins by name, but it was pretty clear that he knew what Maron was talking about.
― Three Word Username, Saturday, 9 June 2012 14:51 (twelve years ago) link
I'm betting that maron never bothered to meet stewart

Donnell Rawlings ep is great so far.
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 14 June 2012 19:34 (twelve years ago) link
lol at donnell's dad's reasons for liking snoop dogg.
― mizzell, Friday, 15 June 2012 15:36 (twelve years ago) link
Is saying " one" a real thing, or is donnell playing a joke on white comedy nerds?
― President Keyes, Friday, 15 June 2012 18:36 (twelve years ago) link
something about this Jack White interview I really love, even though Maron is doing all the things I hate
I think I just really love hearing Jack so relaxed, laughing, just having a kind of easy conversation. It's not terribly hard hitting but I dig it
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 18 June 2012 17:02 (twelve years ago) link
didn't mention PF Tompkins by name, but it was pretty clear that he knew what Maron was talking about.
Wait, what's the story with this? I missed this whole thing.

Loved the Donnell ep
― polyphonic, Monday, 18 June 2012 17:24 (twelve years ago) link
Scharpling and Tompkins apparently had a huge falling out over a project they were working on, Tompkins did online friendship breakup (Twitter blockage, unfriending etc.), Tompkins has been unreceptive to attempts to reconcile, neither of them mention the other anymore and do not speak of the other to mutual friends (Jen Kirkman and John Hodgman being the best known). It's not something either of them talks about publicly, and Scharpling gets mad when "fans" speculate about it.
― Three Word Username, Monday, 18 June 2012 17:26 (twelve years ago) link
It took him about 40 minutes before he got to "who are your guys?"
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 18 June 2012 19:27 (twelve years ago) link
Really like this interview! I'm neither here nor there on Jack White-as-celebrity most days, but wtkiw him on a Monday afternoon at Third Man.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 18 June 2012 19:49 (twelve years ago) link
totally revived my Jack White crush 100% :)
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 18 June 2012 20:09 (twelve years ago) link
kinda wanted him to go supernerdy on upholstery, lol
Thanks for the Scharpling/Tompkins explanation. I just Googled it and discovered - though this shouldn't be any kind of surprise, I realize - that comedy message boards are even more intense and depressing than regular messageboards.
― Walter Galt, Tuesday, 19 June 2012 09:18 (twelve years ago) link
jack white has a weirdly ulrich-esque accent at times

Even though was mostly surface stuff, I enjoyed the Brian Regan interview. Seems like a naturally funny dude who really genuinely likes what he does.
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 25 June 2012 18:16 (eleven years ago) link
halfway through Mark Duplass.
On the one hand I like him, he seems p cool...but there's something about him that's annoying me and I can't quite put my finger on it yet. Or I'm just in a grumpy Monday mood
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 25 June 2012 18:17 (eleven years ago) link
I gave up on Duplass halfway through. Nice guy, but seemed like he and Marc were having the most boring conversation ever between two guys who have no real interest in talking to each other.

don't really know anything about marc maron, but i heard him interviewed on NPR last friday (or maybe it was thursday, thereabouts). maybe a bad interview/day, but it was horrible. any MM fans hear it? is it a fair representation of his style?
― contenderizer, Monday, 25 June 2012 18:44 (eleven years ago) link
I didn't even know he was on. Was it a Fresh Air joint?
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Monday, 25 June 2012 18:45 (eleven years ago) link
i don't think so? i'm not a regular enough NPR listener to say for sure.
― contenderizer, Monday, 25 June 2012 18:48 (eleven years ago) link
was fairly brief
oh god terry gross talking to marc maron sounds like the worst thing in the world. how much amateur psychology can the fm spectrum carry?

with occasional great episodes

I think I'll check back over this thread and see if there are any good eps. The two or three shows I tried to get through were so depressing though.
