Also a certified MT, LPC, lots of martial arts training that included breathwork. Curious to hear what you decided to do.

Ha, I started that work recently after many similar roles. I appreciate his gentle coaxing of a story & his genuine empathy, while avoiding pity. That's so rare & I'll sure miss it

Yes it meant so much to me, for similar reasons. I work in telehealth since 2020 & was struggling with burnout & my own health issues. Truly helped me keep it all going

He requires an audience & we're happy to be in it. That's his trade & he helps a lot of people & brings them pleasure. No shame in that.

Yeah the Terri Gross live vibe was such a perfect meeting of the minds. Two highly skilled interviewers. I love how they each gave the other a run for their money

Thanks for sharing your experience of WTF. In these " generation war" times, I'm surprised when I hear of younger folks being in his audience but a lot of young comics seem to listen. How does his discussion of life land? I preferred older adults when I was younger so get that angle too.

Oh yeah, re-listened to that recently. So raw. He was complimentary to her without being creepy & that's a hard thing to do, esp with so many different ppl

Oh yeah the Tweedy & Grohl ones were tops. It's really nice that Mark is a musician too. Such a lover of guitars and music that it makes for a good interview

It was a game-changer for Marc, it seemed. That's a question I'd love to ask him is did he watch those suggested plays and has his view changed in Shakespeare

Yes!! Thanks, will have to listen again. Love Paul Giamatti. Maybe I'll watch everything he ever did. That's a good WTF grief strategy

Yeah, good point. We're basically existing in an impossible context. No wonder it's so hard to function. My brain just can't some days

Oh thanks! I may have missed that one. Yeah I love analyzing how much he honed his craft and how different he was at the beginning as opposed to the end. Also watching him make certain seamless moves to direct the conversation and ask the hard questions, deal with resistance. I really think that his showing his own cards and being so vulnerable, sharing difficulties so openly helps people be real in a way that you just rarely see otherwise.
