"WTF with Marc Maron" is a no-holds-barred take on comedy and entertainment today, by comedians working today. Maron is a stand-up comic who happens to have quite a history in radio, and he's been making use of that background to produce the "WTF" podcast for the past year and a half.


WICF Co-Producer Michelle Barbera says, "I'm a big fan of the podcast. He interviews some of the most influential comedians working today in a very honest and entertaining way." Luckily for us, Maron is a big fan of WICF, and will be sponsoring this year's fest. on some of his upcoming podcasts! And WICF readers, his podcasts are right in our wheelhouses. Michelle says, "They typically discuss everything from the creative process and what it's like to work in the business, to all the influences and personal history that led them to be comedians and continue to inspire and sometimes hinder them."
