WTF with Marc Maron Podcast

June 6, 2024

All right, let's do this. How are you, WTFers? WTF buddies? WTFineers? What's happening? I'm Marc Maron. This is my podcast. Welcome to it. As you can hear, I'm back up in Canada, in Vancouver, in this room, in this condo that I'm looking out over the city, over the city of Vancouver, over the Vancouver Art Gallery, over the whole thing. I can see it right now.
Oh my God, what is happening? How's everybody doing? Are you all right?
God bless.
I just took like a nap that was supposed to be like a half hour and it went on for a while. I don't know. I think that maybe, I think maybe some of this traveling, sometimes just a big shift and you can't hide from it. Like I'm thinking like, no big deal. I'll just jump on the plane, get off the plane. I'll just, you know, just not a big deal. It's just a couple of hours where I'm just doing, you know, just, it's just part of what I do.
But there's something about it, I think that exhausts me according to my fitness watch that I don't understand. Today on the show, Larry David is here.
Now look, everyone knows who he is. Everyone knows who Larry David is. He's Larry David and he just wrapped 12 seasons of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Some of you know that I did a live event with him that was pretty fun. He wanted me to interview him. That could have been a podcast, but that was not the way that was gonna go. It was out of my control, folks. That was not what happened. But it was a good show. And then here we are a few weeks later doing the talk in the garage. And it was great to see him. It was great to see Larry, I was happy to do it. He's a mysterious character in the sense that before this last season of Curb, you didn't hear much from him at all. But either way, I'm happy that Larry talked to me. It's funny, all right. So let me just, all right. I'll just tell you, in order to feel comfortable in that grounded or that I can handle long stints away from home, I think I've almost furnished this apartment. I brought a guitar up so I can sit here and plink around.
I got a Google Chromecasting, which I probably could have just got another Apple TV. I don't know. They have a TV up here, but I don't know if you've ever had to experience the choices on Canadian basic cable, but not great, not great. All I know is there's a lot of channels dedicated to shows that I don't think have been on in 50 years. Not knocking it, you know, maybe that's just the way it goes up here. They actually also have an entire Conan O'Brien channel. Should we tell Conan? Does he know that exists? But I think you can watch The Rifleman and Gunsmoke up here almost anytime. I imagine you can in the States. Maybe I'm just being picky, but I guess I have limited options on whatever this plan is at this apartment. So I got a Chromecast and I don't even know, you know, it seems like magic, but it's scary magic. When you just hook something up to a TV and you're going through apps and it's asking you to scan little squares with the strange, you know, little pattern on them. And all of a sudden you're hooked up to a whole different thing in another country. And it seems like it's the same as home, but you didn't do anything to do that. There was no, I don't know how it works.
And does anyone, isn't this how we get into trouble? Isn't this how you find out after three years that somebody has financed four houses on your social security number? Isn't this how that happens? Is there a way to protect ourselves? Am I overthinking it? Anyway, I have a show up here in Vancouver on Friday, June 21st at the Vogue Theater. Then I'm in Seattle on Saturday, June 22nd at the Moore Theater. And tickets to my show in Phoenix on Saturday, September 21st at the Orpheum Theater are now on sale. You can get tickets now during the presale with the passcode ALLIN. That's one word, ALLIN. Tickets are on sale to the general public tomorrow. The link is at WTFODCOM slash TOUR, where you can also find the rest of my dates this fall and next year.
