Toiling in the unforgiving world of comedy for over twenty years, Marc Maron watched his contemporaries achieve the kind of success he desperately craved. Twice divorced, broke, and dispatched from hosting duties on the now defunct Air America, Maron began the "WTF" podcast as an act of desperation in 2009. Five years later, "WTF" is one of the top podcasts online and it has resuscitated Maron's standup career, even inspiring a scripted show, 'Maron,' on the Independent Film Channel. Maron was in Washington DC for a book reading of his new title "Attempting Normal," and he graciously gave Dan & David this interview conducted in a stylish yet practical utility vehicle. In this episode, Maron talks about his friend (and maDCap idol) Bill Hicks, losing his virginity, and reveals the guest of WTF's 400th episode.
