He really is so good at what he does. Honestly I’ve never been a huge fan of his stand-up but I love his podcast. Recommend the pay version so you can access over 1000 old shows.

Oh, idk I just saw him perform about a year ago and it was much better than his older stuff

Ah yeah. He was working out his special. Comes out maybe next month? You will probably have heard some of the content

I've avoided his podcast because I don't like his stand up or tv appearances. But you're saying I should give it a go?

Yeah, I listen to a lot of podcasts, and I have tried to get into other interview shows, but some of the ones I have heard sound too scripted. Marc just has a way to get his guests talking, and a lot of the questions he asks are very thoughtful. He also likes to mix it up with guests and I end up learning a bunch about stuff I never knew existed. I say check out the latest show with Fraser, its one of his best more recent shows, but DO NOT listen to the Courtney Love show that is also recent. That one was painful to hear, and not because of anything Marc did.

The Courtney Love one is not good, and I really disliked the Seinfeld interview. Other than that, most of his episodes have been solid.

As someone who used to revere Seinfeld I can't handle him much anymore. He's so smug and just doesn't seem curious. Like his past success leaves him with nothing new to discover about anything.
