Civil posted:I've been combing through past interviews because Maron manages to get some of the most spectacular guests on his podcast, but I just can't stand him or his style because of the way he treats some of his guests. I actually like Carrot Top's work, but in the interview, Maron keeps dogging him like he's trying to make him cry, or admit that his career is a failure. Carrot Top is a classy guy, though, and just rolls with it. I feel the same way, he gets really great guests but I'd rather just hear them give a monologue for an hour than talk to Maron and have to answer his contrived "So you were bullied as a kid? Your dad wasn't around I bet?" armchair psychologist questioning

NESguerilla posted:The sound of Maron slurping coffee and yelling "pow!" might be the worst noise I have ever heard in my life. I usually throw my headphones off in disgust just as I start to hear him slurp. loving disgusting. I also imagine him having really terrible breath. Hahah I feel exactly the same way. He knows funny people and has been around the block for a long time but the guy is an rear end in a top hat and not very funny. The armchair psychoanalysis is brutal to listen to. WTF episodes are usually like 20 minutes long for me because I skip the stupid rear end monologue intro and try to find parts where Maron isnt talking too much and then skip the end if he starts talking again

The Modern Leper posted:I hate to be guy who latches onto the one statement, but you couldn't be more wrong, top to bottom, about Louis or Louie. I don't hate to be that guy. Louie is a great example of whats wrong with the comedy scene and his show is a catastrophe? You have to be fuckin stupid to think that and consider yourself a fan of comedy

Politicalrancor posted:On the whole Louis CK topic, I think that the crux of the issue is that despite his own ability to make hurtful comedy transformative, he lacks the capability to project that talent on to a significant part of his audience. Its the same story over and over again. Its Chris Rock not doing black people vs niggers because of how it was accidentally encouraging white people to be huge hateful assholes. \ If you avoided doing anything that could possibly be misinterpreted by stupid people then you would run out of ideas pretty quickly

Snowy posted:I don't know much about James Franco, is there a reason that Marc was being such a smug dick to him the whole time? Working with Marina Abromovic is cool, I don't get why Marc would goof on that like its silly, especially since he seems to aspire to art. I havent listened to the episode, but aside from Marc Maron just being a smug dick in general, Franco is also like exactly the type of guy that he would want to be a smug dick to. Franco is successful and good looking etc so Marc has his usual jealousy angle, on top of which James Franco is actually a pretentious goofball actor who thinks way too highly of himself and writes beat poetry, so why wouldnt he make fun of him for that
