HOW ARE YOU, MARC?

LOVELY TO SEE YOU.

>> I'M FINE, NICE TO SEAT YOU, JAMES.

>> James: IT'S ALWAYS NICE TO SEE YOU, ANY TIME I SEE YOU OR

BUMP INTO YOU, I ALWAYS FIND MYSELF THINKING, AND IT IS

GENUINELY TRUEK I LOVE MARC MARON, WHAT A LOVELY GUY.

>> WELL THAT'S VERY NICE OF YOU.

BECAUSE I FEEL THE EXACT SAME AS YOU, JAMES, I THINK IS THE

PROPER WAY TO RESPOND TO THAT.

>> James: I DON'T THINK IT'S UP FOR DEBATE.

AND I DON'T THINK I'M ALONE.

I DON'T THINK I'M ON AN ISLAND.

I THINK EVERYBODY THINKS THAT, AND SOME DAYS I WONDER WHAT MARC

MARON IS DOING RIGHT NOW.

>> AND I ASK ANSWER THAT, USUALLY I'M EITHER SITTING

OUTSIDE ON MY PORCH, SOMETIMES I'M SITTING INSIDE HERE ON MY

COUCH.

OTHER TIMES I'M SITTING IN MY GARAGE TALK ON A MICROPHONE OR

COKING.

>> James: YES, WELL, YOU ARE QUITE THE COOK.

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT THAT, WHAT ARE MARC MARON'S

THANKSGIVING PLANS.

>> I FINALLY GOT MY MOTHER TO STOP PESTERING ME TO COME VISIT

HER IT WAS RIDICULOUS, SHE KNOWS THAT THERE IS A PLAGUE AND SHE

KNOWS IT IS DANGEROUS BUT SHE WANTED ME TO GET ON A PLANE,

THAT MEAN GO TO AN AIRPORT, FLY ON AN AIRCRAFT, LAND IN FLORIDA

TO GO TO HER HOUSE, FLORIDA.

I MIGHT AS WELL JUST DROP COVID IN MY EYE.

I MEAN FLORIDA IS LIKE THE ENTIRE STATE, THEY'RE GOING TO

PUT COVID ON THEIR LICENSE PLATE, IT'S CRAZY.

I'M GOING TO HAVE TO SHOP AT THREE DIFFERENT STORES WITH A

BUNCH OF MASKLESS WEIRDOES.

NO.

SO I'M GOING TO STAY HERE BY MYSELF.

I MIGHT HAVE MY FRIEND COME OVER AND COOK SOMETHING, MAYBE SOME,

TURKEY FOR TWO IS A BIT MUCH BUT I WILL FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

>> James: YOU WILL FIGURE IT OUT.

HAVE YOU ALWAYS BEEN HAPPENEDDEE IN THE KITCHEN.

>> I'VE ALWAYS LIKED TO COOK.

I SORT OF TAUGHT MYSELF HOW TO COOK.

I HAVE A NABBING FOR IT.

I DIDN'T HAVE A NABBING FOR-- I TRIED TO BE A LINE COOK WHEN I

WAS YOUNGER.

I USED TO DO SOME GRILL WORK.

I WAS OKAY AT GRILL.

I COULD DO PANCAKES AND EGGS AN MAKE SANDWICHES BUT THEN I WAS

WORKING AT A RESTAURANT AS A WAITER.

AND THEY HAD AN OPENING ON THE LINE.

AND THE LINE IS SOMETHING THAT IS SORT OF LIKE A GOOD ROCK

BAND.

EVERYBODY HAS GOT TO DO THEIR PART TO DELIVER THE FOOD.

AND I JUST THOUGHT IT WOULD BE EASY AND FUN.

AND I WAS THE FREYER TBIE AND I SCREWED UP THE ENTIRE

RESTAURANT.

I COULD NOT GET THE ONION RINGS NOT TO CLUMP TOGETHER.

I WAS THE BAD KOG IN THE LINE AND I LASTED ABOUT A WEEK.

BUT SINCE THEN I HAVE GOTTEN PRETTY GOOD AT IT.

AND NOW IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME IN QUARANTINE TO REALLY START DO

ITING I LIKE TO COOK TRK MAKES ME FEEL BETTER.

UNFORTUNATELY I'M HERE BY MYSELF AND BASICALLY COOKING LIKE I OWN

A SMALL RESTAURANT.

SO I MY REFRIGERANT CERTIFICATE ALWAYS FULL.

I'M JUST SHY OF HEADING OUT ON TO MY STREET AND JUST WAVING

PEOPLE DOWN TO GIVE THEM MUFFINS AND FRESH GREENS AND MAYBE SOME

SMOKED FISH.

I'M SMOKING FISH, JAMES.

>> James: ARE YOU REALLY SMOKING YOUR OWN FISH, IS THAT

FOR REAL, ARE YOU DOING THAT.

>> I DID IT, AS A JEW I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT TO TOUCH BASE WITH

JEW THINGS.

AND SMOKED FISH IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

SO I ALWAYS WONDER LIKE WHAT WOULD IT TASTE, AND I HAVE GOT A

FREE SMOKER FROM TREAGERS.

I JUST EARNED IT.

BUT SO I REALIZE I COULD PROBABLY SMOKE THIS, SO I

FIGURED IT OUT.

IT IS A PROCESS BUT I WAS ABLE TO ACTUALLY SMOKE MY OWN SABLE

FISH T CAME OUT PERFECT LEIGH.

SO NOW I'M OPENING A DELI.

I WILL BE ON THE STREETS WITH SMOKED FISH, MUFFINS AND GREENS.

I WILL SWITCH MY FOOD UP ON PEOPLE DRIVING BY.

>> James: NOW LET'S TALK ABOUT YOUR NEW MOVIE STARDUST, FOR

ANYONE THAT DOESN'T KNOW, TELL THEM WHAT IT IS ABOUT AND WHO

YOU MAY.

>> STAR BUST IS-- STARDUST ARE A FILM THAT PEOPLE ARE MISS

TACKING FOR A DAVID BOWIE BIO PIQUE BUT IT IS A MOVIE ABOUT A

SMALL MOMENT IN TIME IN DAVID BOWIE'S CAREER JUST AFTER THE

RELEASE OF THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD WHICH WAS, THEY DIDN'T

KNOW HOW TO MARKET THAT ALBUM, IT ONLY HAD ONE HIT, THE SPACE

ODYSSEY, AND IT WASN'T CLEAR WHETHER HE WAS A NOVELLY AK OR

SOMEBODY WHO WAS GOING PLACES.

SO IT IS LIKE A MONTH OR TWO IN THE LIFE OF DAVID BOWIE IN THE

EARLY '70S WHERE HE IS NOT SURE WHO HE IS CREATIVELY OR AS A

PERSON, AND HIS MANAGER IS SORT OF CUTTING HIM LOOSE A LITTLE

BIT AND THE LABEL DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

BUT HE COMES TO AMERICA WITH THE WRONG PAPERS OR NO PAPERWORK TO

PERFORM.

AND I PLAY THIS LABEL, MUSIC LABEL PUBLISHER WHO REALLY

BELIEVES IN THE GUY.

BUT I'M SORT OF ON THE OUTS TOO, SO IT IS BASICALLY ME AND DAVID,

ME TRYING TO GET DAVID BOW BOWIE LONG HAIRED INSECURE HIPIISH

DAVID BOWIE RADIO GIGS AND OPPORTUNITIES TO PLAY WHEN HE IS

NOT LEGALLY ALLOWED TO DO IT AND ALSO THERE ARE ALL THESE

CONVERSATIONS AROUND HOW HE IS GOING TO PROCEED WITH THIS

MUSIC.

BECAUSE I BELIEVE THAT THE ISSUE IS DOES DAVID BELIEVE.

IT SEEMED INTERESTING IN THAT I DON'T THINK A LOT OF US IMAGINED

DAVID BOWIE EVER BEING AT THAT PLACE IN HIS CAREER.

SO IT IS REALLY A STORY ABOUT A YOUNG ARTIST TRYING TO-- .

>> James: DID YOU EVER GET TO MEET DAVID BOWIE?

NO, I DIDN'T.

BUT I LOVED HIM A LONG TIME.

I'M A BIG FAN OF DAVID BOWIE AND I'M A FAN OF SPECIFIC PERIODS OF

DAVID BOW WREE,-- BOWIE, BUT IT WAS EXCITE OG GET THIS

OPPORTUNITY, I PLAY THE PUBLICIST, THAT NOBODY KNOWS

REALLY, EXCEPT HIS FAMILY AND A FEW PEOPLE.

SO GOING INTO IT I'M LIKE IT IS NOT ON ME.

I APPROXIMATE GOING TO BE OKAY NO MATTER HO YOU THIS GOES.

>> James: HE'S A BRIL ANT ACTOR.

, I AM A BIG FAN OF HIS.

AND YOU HAVE SPOKEN TO PLENTY OF ROCK STARS ON THE PODCAST AND I

THINK WE BOTH SHARE A FASCINATION WITH THEM.

WHAT IS IT ABOUT ROCK STARS THAT YOU FIND SO INTERESTING?

>> I THINK THE THING THAT REALLY IS THE BIGGEST PART OF A ROCK

STAR'S MISS TEAK IS THEY DON'T HAVE TO TALK, THEY NEVER HAVE TO

TALK.

AND IN SOME CASES AS YOU KNOW, THAT MIGHT BE BETTER.

BUT THERE IS THIS, I THINK IT IS WHEN I HAVE INTERVIEWED NEIL

YOUNG, KEITH RICHARDS MCCARTNEY, ROGER WATERS, RANDY NEWMAN, I

THROW HIM IN BECAUSE I LOVE HIM.

THIS HE ARE SORT OF MAGICAL PEOPLE.

THEY ARE UP THERE WITH THEIR BAND BUT THEY ARE ABLE TO SUMMON

SOMETHING THAT IS NOT RIPE AS A COMIC OR WHAT MOST PEOPLE DO.

MUSIC IS REALLY MAGIC.

AND SONGS EVOLVE.

SONGS STAY WITH YOU, YOUR ENTIRE LIFE.

THEY EITHER BRING YOU BACK SOME PLACE TO WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER

OR THEY SORT OF GROW WITH YOU AND GET DEEPER AS YOU GO ON.

SO THERE IS A REAL MAGIC TO PEOPLE THAT MAKE MUSIC.

>> I COMPLETELY AGREE.

I'M REALLY EXCITED TO SEE THE FILM.

WE HAVE BEEN

DOING THIS THING ON THE SHOW CALLED A "LATE, LATE SHOW" AND

TELL WHERE WE ASK OUR GUESTS TO SHARE SOMETHING WITH US FROM

HOE THAT WE MAY OTHERWISE NEVER GET TO SEE.

DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE THIS EVENING?

>> I DO.

AND IT IS SORT OF, IT IS SORT OF CONNECTED TO THE MOVE C.E.O. IN

A WAY.

ARE YOU READY?

>> James: OH WOW.

IS THIS A REAL MOLD OF BOWIE'S FACE?

>> YES, DUDE T WAS LIKE I KNOW THIS GUY, IS HE A FAN OF MINE, A

MAKEUP ARTIST AND HE WORKED AT ONE OF THE STUDIOS, AND THEY HAD

ALL THE MOLDS FROM PEOPLE THAT THEY HAD TO MAKE MASKS AND

PROSTHETICS FOR.

AND THIS WAS, THEY HAD IT, AND HE MADE SOME CASTS, SO THIS IS

PROBABLY DAVID BOWIE FROM I WOULD IMAGINE THE MOVIE THAT IS

PROBABLY THE HUNGER.

SO HE MADE ME THE MOLD AND GAVE THE OPTION OF SORT OF PUTTING

THE MAKEUP ON HIM.

SO THIS IS LIKE HAVING DAVID BOWIE'S HEAD.

>> James: WOW, THAT IS INCREDIBLE.

>> ISN'T THAT INSANE.

>> James: THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING THAT.

THAT IS BRILLIANT.

REGGIE, DO YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR OUR GUEST THIS EVENING?

>> YES, I DO.

TONIGHT'S QUESTION GOES TO MAR SK-- -- MARC.

>> YES SIR, HAVE YOU EVER HAD AN INTERACTION WHERE YOU THOUGHT I

GOT TO GET OUT OF HERE AND THEN YOU CAME UP WITH A CREATIVE

SOLUTION?

>> YES, IT IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW AND I HAVE TO GO LZ WELL,

AIN'T THAT CORRECT.

>> James: IT'S ABSOLUTELY CORRECT.

PLEASE THANK THE WONDERFUL MARC MARON, EVERYBODY.
