  • Episode 1637 - Jessica Kirson
    Apr 24 2025
    Jessica Kirson was a guest on WTF six years ago, when she talked with Marc about her start in comedy and her personal background. This time, she came back just to hang out and have some laughs. And for Marc at this exact moment in time, it was much needed and greatly appreciated. They talk about Jessica’s new special, I’m the Man, their experiences with crying, the never-ending fight against embarrassment, the many similarities from their New Jersey upbringings, and whatever else they’re thinking about during the hour.

  • Episode 1636 - Liza Treyger
    Apr 21 2025
    Comedian Liza Treyger is frequently mystified by human behavior. Why are people so mean when leaving internet comments? Why do adults continuously repeat the patterns of children? Why are friendships so hard to maintain later in life? She asks these questions as a sociology major but also as a comic, and was recently able to explore these ideas in her first Netflix special. Liza and Marc talk about these issues, as well as Liza’s path to comedy, which included many crash courses she didn’t anticipate.

  • Episode 1635 - Jillian Bell
    Apr 17 2025
    Jillian Bell’s history of anxiety goes back to when she was a baby and would hold her breath until she passed out. But she didn’t let panic attacks stand in the way of her dream to get hired at SNL or her desire to become a working comedic actor. And as Jillian tells Marc, she definitely wasn’t going to let anything stop her from becoming a director, which she did with her first film, Summer of 69. They also talk about the great experience they shared while making Lynn Shelton’s Sword of Trust.

  • Episode 1634 - Ryan Coogler
    Apr 14 2025
    As a writer and director, Ryan Coogler is drawn to stories about identity. He made Fruitvale Station to confront his own thoughts and fears about being a Black man in America. He made Creed as an extension of the dynamic he has with his dad. He made Black Panther while conscious of the impact it would have on a global community. Ryan and Marc talk about these films as well as Ryan's latest movie Sinners, which also explores Ryan's preferred topic of identity, but this time through the lens of Delta Blues, doppelgangers, and vampires.

  • Episode 1633 - Gavin Matts
    Apr 10 2025

    By all accounts, Gavin Matts has carved a successful path for himself as a comedian, actor and writer at the young age of 30. But he can’t shake the feeling that he came into show business at the tail end and he’s mourning the possibilities that no longer seem as attainable as they once were. Gavin and Marc talk about the changes in the world of comedy, the struggles of local comedy clubs, and the rise of arena shows. Gavin also explains how he was influenced by the pace of comedians like Todd Barry, Hannibal Buress and Chelsea Peretti, and why, in the end, he probably should have been a fisherman.

  • Episode 1632 - Peter Weller
    Apr 7 2025
    Peter Weller knows that most people think of him as RoboCop. But he also knows that when they approach him to talk about RoboCop, it’s his opportunity to talk to them about art, jazz, theater and many other areas that are not merely hobbies for him, but actual artistic pursuits. Peter tells Marc why he got his Ph.D. in Italian Renaissance Art History and how his jazz trumpet playing in college stuck with him his whole life, leading him to a friendship with Miles Davis. They also talk about the necessity of art during times of political upheaval and revolution.

  • Episode 1631 - Lynne Margulies
    Apr 3 2025
    When Lynne Margulies was 25 years old, she met Andy Kaufman on the set of the film My Breakfast with Blassie. Two years later, just shortly before he died, Andy made Lynne promise she would keep his work alive. With the release of the new documentary Thank You Very Much, Lynne talks with Marc about fulfilling that promise over the decades by showcasing Andy’s comedy and also allowing the myths about him to persist. They also talk about Andy’s inspirations and why professional wrestling was a foundational part of his personality.

  • Episode 1630 - Delroy Lindo
    Mar 31 2025
    Delroy Lindo can take pride in many accomplishments - his family, his career, his educational - while being aware that he’s still in the process of finding himself. Delroy and Marc, despite their differences, find it easy to relate to each other over that lifelong journey of self-discovery, which for Delroy included the decision to go back to school later in life after his film career already took off. He also explains to Marc how acting saved his life, from the Christmas pageant he was in at age five all the way up through his latest film, Sinners.
