I listen to the Real Deal (CNET) and RadioLab from time to time. If I could connect my Touch to my car radio I'd consume much more Podcast material. [Reply]

WTF with Marc Maron

First podcast, cold open with a Whole Foods bit. See if you can follow;
Their food is shit and organic food is worse than regular food, but I wanted some, but it's too expensive because Whole Foods' CEO is a libertarian fuck who wants poor people to die and starve. And people should have a right to that shitty organic/delicious nutritious organic without having to pay what the price tag says, so I went in there to buy some obscure alternative sweetener [Stevia?], but when I saw all those blissed out yuppies I said why should I pay for things I want to consume so I stole it. I walked out with it in my hands without paying for it. And I suggest all my listeners stick it to that asshole CEO of theirs and go steal something from your local Whole Foods, because they don't support people getting whatever they want for free, so fuck them.
Maron: 'I'm so 'counter' that I disagree with myself 1000 times in a single sentence.' [Reply]

I'd be remiss if I didn't revisit. Having listened to a few more, while he's still a loony, he's a loony with a healthy awareness of his looniness. As often as he rants about why people can't get everything they need or want for free, he reflects and admits his 'enemies' are just people living their lives and that he lets his rage drive him too frequently, etc. Pretty good podcast.
Even more refreshing, was Janeane Garafolo admitting she's very blessed that people find her entertaining to the extent that she earns a living from it because she's 'not very smart' [her words, no shit] and utterly incapable of doing what 'normal people' do to earn a living [cooking, accounting, secretary work, auto repair, what have you].
