WTF Episode 103 with Bob Odenkirk & Maria Bamford
From WTF with Marc Maron | Part of the WTF with Marc Maron series | 59:00
Two interviews with two comic minds: Bob Odenkirk & Maria Bamford. The 59-minute version is preferred, but a newshole version is provided for stations that require it.
Marc sits down with Bob Odenkirk, one half of the influential '90s HBO sketch program Mr. Show. Odenkirk has gone on to be a succesful director, writer and actor. They'll talk about the discipline it takes to get creative projects made. Plus, a conversation in the car with the delightfully bizarre comic Maria Bamford.

Genius
From KVNF | Part of the Belief Systems and Other B.S. series | 03:31
The diagnosis of genius is sometimes a self-fulfilling prophecy.
I was rated 150 on the IQ test I took in grade school, just over the line for genius. I was subsequently treated differently, and I've always wondered how that different treatment affected me, and how big a difference that number has made in my life.
