"Some people have foresight and are disciplined careerists, and they know how to understand their talent, harness it, and then figure out how to capitalize on it with their skillset on their terms. And there are guys now that have that. I went to a birthday party for John Mulaney, and I'm just surrounded by all these young guns who are talking about their lawyers and what they need from them."
"Of course, it makes clickbait, it's the same day that John's doing something noble, standing up for Colbert. And then this other clickbait is like, 'Maron still hates John.' I'm like, the fucking timing on that."
Marc Maron characterizes his feud with Jon Stewart as petty and driven by his own insecurity and jealousy. Maron states that Jon Stewart never harmed him and that the resentment was personal. The timing of Maron’s negative comments coincided with Stewart defending Stephen Colbert, which amplified clickbait narratives. Maron praises Stewart as a disciplined careerist who harnessed and capitalized on his talent. Maron contrasts that with a new generation of comedians focused on legal and business concerns. Maron also references his HBO special Panicked, the end of WTF, and a role in a Bruce Springsteen biopic.
