WTF with Marc Maron

Marc Maron

United States

WTF with Marc Maron is a raw, rambling confessional disguised as an interview show—where vulnerability, neurosis, and sharp insight collide in Maron’s garage, turning conversations into emotional excavations that are as much about him as they are about his guests.

"A confessional monologue followed by a candid biographical interview. A format now copied by hundreds of thousands, including me."

- Jesse Brown, Canadaland

WTF with Marc Maron is less an interview show than a confessional booth wrapped in guitar strings and nicotine. Maron’s raw, often self-lacerating monologues set the tone for conversations that unfold with a disarming looseness—probing, tangential, and charged with the intimacy of two people trying to figure something out, often themselves. What began in a garage with the residue of personal and professional failure became a defining artifact of the podcast era: a place where comedians, actors, and cultural figures dropped their masks, if only briefly. WTF endures as a reminder that vulnerability, when wielded honestly, can be its own form of art.
