Speaking of Bamford, her WTF episode (and her recent Nerdist episode, also) are must-listens. It actually mad me admire her work more, because she's been through some hosed up situations.

One thing I'll always be grateful to Dennis Miller for is that when I was watching him at 12-13 years old, his material and show encouraged me to follow politics, which I think is fairly important. And Dennis has a better reason than some for turning right-wing post 9/11 (he lost a friend in the attack, IIRC), although sadly, the man has completely lost his fastball, both comedically and mentally. It's really hard to take the critical thinking skills of somebody who said the words "George W Bush made it alright to respect the office President of the US again" seriously. He also popped up on Diners Drive-Ins and Dives recently, which made me sad because Guy Fieri is the kind of tool Dennis used to mock regularly on HBO.

I'm not saying it magically makes it okay, but I am saying I could see how it would make somebody change their minds about political philosophy, especially if they feel that right-wingers will take the action for somebody they lost.

Pocket Billiards posted:The Chris Cornell podcast is very good. Of course Marc is shoehorning in addiction as much as he can. In fairness, it's sorta relevant to Cornell considering he's a recovering alcoholic.

I just listened to the intro for their interview that Marc posted after Robin Williams passed. It's also interesting to note that it wasn't depression that killed Robin but rather a hard to detect form of dementia. Holy poo poo, though. He sounds crushed. But he also gave a hell of an intro. It's funny, I'd contend that WTF has probably made Marc a better man. Most people who start podcasts don't start it with that in mind.

The Berzerker posted:Chris Gethard owns and is cool and nice. His comedy is super honest and genuine. I have not watched much TCGS but I like everything else about him... I might try TCGS sometime... probably not. Too much backlog Do what I did, friend: Just watch the Fusion/IFC episodes on Youtube. Only 2 seasons. And I like the show personally.

Pocket Billiards posted:Jay Mascis episode is pretty good. Probably the most animated I've heard him (Mascis not Maron). I think I have to listen, J's always seemed like music's answer to Steven Wright when it comes to interviews.

mike12345 posted:Yeah I just gave this a try. The way he talks reminded me of his book, like every sentence comes with some cherry-picked word from the thesaurus. Switched it off after 10 min tbh. A friend of mine reveiews books for a local arts paper and GoodReads and said it was absolute dogshit, and it was largely incoherent.
