All right, let's do this. How are you, WTFers? WTF buddies? WTFniks? How's it going?
I'm Marc Maron, this is my podcast.
I'm recovering. I'm recovering from a few days on the road. What day is it? It's Thursday for you. You must be thinking, why would it take so long?
I don't know, man. You know, you get out there, we did some great shows. I think I talked about it the last time I was on the mics here. The last show, where were we? In Tarrytown, that was interesting.
Nice place, nice little town, kind of upscale-ish people, all adults, but for some reason, out of all the shows, that's including Boston, Providence, and Portland, for some reason, I had, there was someone in the crowd. I couldn't get a take on it, who it was, but there was someone in one of the balconies that was causing some trouble. It went on and off for a while. I mean, I handled it well, it was funny, but apparently the cops had to come and you're on stage, you don't even notice his stuff. But aside from that, great show, hands on, did all right. Claire O'Kane opened for me for the full run, she was great. And I don't know, I just, lot of driving, lot of talking, a lot of eating. But ultimately, getting up on Sunday morning to record the show for Monday, and then Sunday night, being jacked up, driving from Terrytown to JFK at, you know, Tanlitt night, staying at that TWA hotel. That's crazy. Have you guys looked that up? Do you know what it is?
It was, it's the old TWA terminal. I remember that terminal as a functioning terminal when I was a kid. It's sort of a mid-century modern masterpiece architecturally, but it's kind of a trip because they left it primarily intact. It's a very practical place to stay if you got to catch a plane in the morning, which I did and it worked out. But very odd when something that was something else becomes a hotel, even the place where were we in Portland, that was an old newspaper building, but you know, you just, that's just the frame of the building. I mean, this is, they've got it all set up like, you know, where you check in, it's the ticket counter. It looks like a terminal, a terminal lost in time. And there's a very famous walkway that used to go, I think from the front to the actual terminals that's still intact. You've seen that in a lot of movies in the old TWA terminal. I don't know when it was built, but it was kind of a trip, man. It didn't feel quite right, but it's really stunning to look at. You feel like you're in some sort of time machine or some sort of spaceship from an era where spaceships might have looked like that on television anyways. But I recommend you check it out.
And I'm not getting a paid plug, and I can't even say it was an amazing hotel necessarily. It was good, but you're in an airline terminal and you're sitting there. But I mean, it's better than Hilton or something, but it's really kind of wild to be in that structure, especially if you have some childhood memories of it from flying into Kennedy at any time. I don't even know that I registered it being gone, that Trans World Airlines is no longer. I mean, that's what my family used to fly, DWA. And there I was in a hotel room, in the terminal. And when you walk around and you get out of your room, it's weird because it feels like people are on their way to their planes or something. I don't know, but it was an experience.
