YMMV / WTF with Marc Maron

• Harsher in Hindsight:
  • The Robin Williams interview was a sobering yet darkly humorous discussion about sobriety, mental health, and suicide. After Williams committed suicide, Marc reposted the episode with a new introduction, saying as hard as it is to listen to after such a tragedy, it is necessary to hear it again to show that Williams was a much more complex character than the manic clown many people saw him as.
  • The Louis C.K. interview is considered a seminal event within podcasting. But in the wake of revelations about CK's sexual misconduct and his subsequent admission, Marc and producer Brendan struggled with whether they should keep the episode up, take it down, or add a disclaimer as they, especially Brendan, thought that the episode could be used to soften public perception towards CK and rehabilitate his reputation.
• Heartwarming Moments: During the 1000th episode special, Marc breaks into tears as he thanks Brendan McDonald for pushing him and working hard to make the podcast a success and saying how proud he is to see that the podcast brings in enough revenue to allow Brendan to settle down and start a family.
