I didn't really want to kill myself, it just made me feel better to know I could if I wanted to.

Surveillance induced morality: relics of cultural retardation.

Whether people know the evolution of the conversation or not, I don't know, but thematically, as a comedian, I stay in the same ballpark - around my issues and my philosophy of life.
Marc Maron
Image
It's great to have people come out. I do worry, though. They know me very intimately, in a way, if they listen to my show they know a lot about me.

We live in an age where people are like, I'd love to catch up. Maybe text me later? But don't call because I don't really listen to my messages. But if you text me... We've displaced interaction into sound bites and untethered phrases and sentences that come up on the phone as Twitter feed.

Is it hard to make a living in show business? Yeah.

Once I learned how to talk, personally, by myself to any number of people, which means do radio without talking to anyone in particular on the air - I just found that my brain became very free to engage in a sort of stream-of-consciousness style of doing what I do.

I don't make a list of questions. Ever. I think a lot of my interviews are driven by my need to feel connection.

It always astounds me that over the course of my career, and having lived in four comedy cities - New York, Boston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles - there's very few people I haven't run into.

Everyone is a little bitter. We're born bitter. The personality itself is really just a very complex defense mechanism. A reaction to the first time someone said, No you can't.

They are not testing comics for drugs. If our job is dependent on that, there would be three working comics in the country, and two of them would have puppets.

The way I figure it, if you can't tell I'm high by looking at me, I win.
Marc Maron
Image
I'm just looking for authentic engagement of some kind, and usually, after an hour or more, you get that. Some people talk at you. Some people just want to answer questions, but a lot of times, all of a sudden you drift away, and you don't remember you're on the mic, and you're in something real.

There are a lot of things that I'm allowing myself to be, but it's a conscious effort to experience contentment for me. My brain doesn't do that naturally. I'm very overwhelmed all of the time.
Marc Maron
Image
I'm happy, certainly, given the times we're living in, to be doing OK, and to not be worrying about money, and to be producing something I enjoy.

Comedy is obviously a matter of personal taste and the world always needs a clown and some people have no taste at all and any clown will do.

In show business, it takes 10 years to create an overnight success. You've heard that, right? But what you don't hear is that that's the exact same amount of time it takes to create a bitter failure.

The medium of podcasting and the personal nature of it, the relationship you build with your listeners and the relationship they have with you - they could be just sitting there, chuckling and listening... there's nothing like that.

I think most other comics are like, 'I'm going to do my fkin' act and that'll be that.' With me, it's like, 'What if I forget my jokes? What if I can't pull it together? This is going to be a fking disaster!'
