Maynard and Marc MaronI’ve mentioned my love of Marc Maron’s WTF before — it is, for my money (and a lot of other people’s, based on its popularity) the best podcast out there right now. Maron is an amazing interviewer; not only is he great at getting the guests to open up and provide new insights into their lives and work, but the casual, conversational nature of the discussions provides a vicarious thrill, making the listener feel as if he or she were themselves participating in the chat. It’s awesome stuff.

Maron’s primary focus is comedy and comedians, but as of late, he’s been having more and more musicians on, including Dave Grohl, Andrew W.K., Tommy Stinson, and now, Maynard James Keenan. And, yeah, it’s a great interview. As I write this, I’m only about fifteen minutes in, but I can already say that I’ve never heard the Tool vocalist speak so candidly. Even fi for some reason you hate WTF, if you’re a fan of Keenan’s work, this is a must-listen.

And it’s free! So really you have no reason not to download it. Get it here.

Thanks: Stephen P.
