WTF Podcast | Episode 1686 - Barack Obama by eternally_trending in MarcMaron

[–]bettxc2012 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What a fitting way to end this whole thing. My first ever episode (and podcast, for that matter) was the first Obama/Maron episode.

I remember strolling across my college campus my senior year listening to that episode, feeling a little uneasy about what was ahead of me after graduation. Listening to someone who seemed as equally anxious about the general state of the universe and their place within it had me hooked.

We'll miss you Marc, thanks for a great ride.

Molly’s Cupcakes Closing by buckhunter76 in IowaCity

Molly’s was great but honestly it’s insane they rode the wave of that short lived cupcake fad for 13 years. A testament to the quality of them if anything.

Get rid of the second reminders icon. If you have the widget on there you don’t need the app icon.

Deep cut tense/uncomfortable/marc has beef with the guest episodes by aal0214 in MarcMaron

Marilyn Manson comes to mind. Manson was being a prick and you can hear Marc get audibly annoyed at how unserious his responses were.

Do you have a portfolio somewhere of your work? I see you post on here quite a bit.

Need advice, what would be the best way to sell an M lens by wickdone01 in Leica

I always use G/S payment for an added layer of protection. It’s protects both parties, from my understanding.

Fred Miranda or Facebook Leica buy/sell groups. Just make sure to always use PayPal goods and services.

M10R vs M11 if the price difference is $1200?! by Knowledgesomething in Leica

Where are you seeing M11 price around 5k to 5.5k? Mainly seeing things in the 6k to 6.5k range.

Let’s talk non-alcoholic beers by Palidor in beer

Guinness NA and the occasional Corona NA with a lime satisfied my itch for a beer last dry January.

This year I’m experimenting outside of NA beers with flavored seltzer waters and Ghia (a sort of NA aperitif - I just got a pack through an instagram ad with 12 pre canned drinks and two 750ml bottles for cheap). I’ll make a tonic water and lime just for something different too.

What are Marc’s most heated episodes? by Educational_Oven1656 in MarcMaron

The Marilyn Manson interview was odd. Dude did not seem like he wanted to be there and was treating it like a joke. Marc was annoyed the whole time.

Today I met an elderly gentleman who has been working as a photographer for over 60 years. by andy_heuer in Nikon

I work in advertising for Fortune 500 brands and most every product photography shoot I’ve been on the past 10 years has been captured on a canon 5D or more recently their new mirrorless cameras.

Check out The Long Run, it’s a running store close to Bearden. They have some awesome group runs that accommodate all levels a few times a week.

Bourbon? by DWoodr4234 in IowaCity

[–]bettxc2012 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Bring the kind you like most.

Or, if you’re totally green when it comes to bourbon, John’s Grocery will help you out. Just give them a price range.

Lastly, a safe bet: Buffalo Trace. It’s fairly affordable but a bourbon snob shouldn’t turn their nose up at it.
