    Episode 1645 - Peter Wolf

    Peter Wolf didn’t want to write the typical rock and roll memoir filled with lurid tales and score settling. Instead he wanted to write a collection of short stories that stem from his serendipitous encounters with everyone from Marilyn Monroe to David Lynch. Peter tells Marc how he wrestled with his own memories to write the book, how he drew from his friendships with Bob Dylan, Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker, and how he got right with the topics he wanted to avoid, namely his time with The J. Geils Band and his marriage to Faye Dunaway. Sign up here for WTF+ to get the full show archives and weekly bonus material! https://plus.acast.com/s/wtf-with-marc-maron-podcast. Hosted on Acast.

    Episode 1644 - Sarah Silverman

    Sarah Silverman and Marc go back more than 30 years and although they know a lot about each other from the past, they can both acknowledge that they haven’t stopped growing and learning and changing right up to the present. Sarah and Marc talk about making peace with the signs of aging, including hearing loss, and how an embrace of closure helped her deal with the loss of her father and stepmother, which is the center of her new Netflix special, PostMortem.

    Episode 1643 - Carol Leifer

    Carol Leifer has been a standup comic for almost 50 years, but the knowledge she can impart from her lifetime of experience isn’t limited to the standup stage. That’s why Carol co-wrote the new book How to Write a Funny Speech, applying the building blocks of comedy to weddings, graduations and anywhere else one might speak in public. Carol and Marc talk about how to be funny at a memorial, her experience writing for the recent Oscars, and how she’s tapped into the current zeitgeist thanks to her teenage son.

    Episode 1642 - Bridget Everett

    When Bridget Everett was growing up in Kansas, the question “How are you feeling?” was not often asked. That’s part of the reason why Bridget embraced singing and making music as her primary way to connect with people. She tells Marc how this led to the development of her live cabaret shows which got her noticed by Michael Patrick King, Amy Schumer, and eventually HBO. They also talk about how Bridget’s acclaimed and beloved show Somebody Somewhere taught her how to face grief and live with it.

    Episode 1641 - Samantha Crain

    Singer-songwriter Samantha Crain wasn’t sure if she’d ever be able to make music again after a car accident left her without the ability to play instruments or physically write songs. Samantha talks with Marc about her recovery and how her physical improvement coincided with the evolution of her artistic confidence. Samantha also explains her family’s storied history of powerlifting, the influence of Jason Molina, and why she feels it’s important to write and perform songs in the Choctaw language.

    Episode 1640 - Tom Green

    While he was once known for all manner of comedy involving animals, both alive and dead, Tom Green’s relationship with the animal kingdom is now much more traditional, as he spends some of his time doing farm work on a remote plot of unspoiled land in Canada. Tom talks with Marc about why he made the big change in his life, which is documented in the new Prime Video series Tom Green Country. They also talk about their respective pioneer work in the early days of streaming video and podcasting.

    David Harbour and Marc met in the garage seven years ago at the height of Stranger Things and the beginning of a new phase in David’s career. Now with the Marvel movie Thunderbolts coming out, David and Marc have both had surprising success in their careers, which leaves them both searching for things they can’t quite pin down. They’ll try to help each other out, while also discussing meditation, mortality, and the future of art and entertainment in a world of shorter attention spans.

    Episode 1638 - David Cronenberg

    David Cronenberg starts making each new film of his as though he’s making a movie for the first time. Marc sees connective tissue through all of David’s work, consisting of “the meat, the machine, mutations of desire, and pain.” David and Marc explore these ideas in specific films, including Scanners, The Brood, The Fly, Naked Lunch, Crash, Cosmopolis, and Maps to the Stars, as well as David’s latest film The Shrouds, which he considers to be a discussion with his audience about grief.
