clearly a dick that had no interest in discussing most of what Marc wanted to talk about
Frequently asked myself "is he joshing or just senile?" during the interview.
Chase is definitely showing his age (turning 80 next month) in the worst ways. He was way more coherent in his Gottfried pod interview from 2015. He tells those same Caddyshack/Rodney stories there, and it's like night & day.

Just saw on FB a click bait thing from The Independent re:his new comments about Community.

I think most of us, as we get older, just become more like ourselves. Clearly, this is the case with Chevy Chase.

Well, I'm Chevy Chase, but you're not.

In the future, we'll all be Chevy Chase for 15 minutes

As Donald Trump has convincingly shown, many people have a secret or not so secret desire to be a toxic asshole.

Given his comments about how he was always the "star of the show" or "the best", I just think he's a huge narcissist that was "fortunate" enough to come up in entertainment in an era where white male behavior like that was tolerated, if not encouraged. As society evolved, no one ever really challenged his toxic behavior, they just quit calling him in for projects and/or cutting him out of them and, like any entitled performer of his era, he refuses to do any self-reflection that might cause him to put 2 and 2 together about why his career stalled out.

I subscribed to Maron+ a couple months ago to get the bonus episodes where Marc and his girlfriend talk about movies sometimes, but leading up to the Chevy episode he and Brendan have set the stage for it in their bonus episodes so well—what happened before and after the tape was rolling—that I kind of don't need to listen to the actual interview (I'm a Chevy Chase hater anyway, so I likely was never going to).

Haven't listened to this in ages but I'm curious about Laraaji and John Wilson.

Loved the Paul Giamatti episode (#1500). Really showed what the show can be.

Did you guys listen to Matt B. Davis? Very old-school ep with escalating tension between Marc and guest, you get to hear two guys who can be kind of assholes rubbing their scars against each other, I loved it
― Guayaquil (eephus!), Wednesday, 10 January 2024 15:36 (three months ago) link
Yeah, I just listened to that one the other day, even though he teased it ahead of time I really didn't expect it to get as tense as it did.
― Maxmillion D. Boosted (jon /via/ chi 2.0), Wednesday, 10 January 2024 15:40 (three months ago) link
yeah it was great oldschool wtfbut i wanted to email marc afterward to tell him: gah Matt is a bully, fuck that guy
