A new documentary about how Marc Maron, the prolific comedian and podcaster, is grappling with his grief over the death of his partner, Lynn Shelton, and somewhat tortured feelings about continuing on with his career is set to release on Oct. 3, coinciding with the end of his pioneering podcast, WTF With Marc Maron.
Why step away now? “I realized when I was sitting with [Bill] Hader and [John] Mulaney and Conan [O’Brien]. I’m not playing in that league, dude,” he says in the film. “They seem savvy to the business in a way that I’m still somehow not. But like what difference does it make? What am I gunning for?”

Dude is a crybaby.
All he does is whine
Ending the podcast and now this? He’s just a quitter. Emo bitch.
He wants to sit down
I mean is you have nothing else to say…
Yeah ok he’ll stop doing it for a little while and get bored. Guys like him don’t step away unless they’re sick, dying, or dead
He has only been doing this since the 80’s.
