As far as life on the Internet goes, Rob Corddry grabbed the brass ring. He talks to Marc about how his web series "Children's Hospital" got turned into an honest-to-goodness television show. They also discuss the finer points of clown classes, what it was like to be a Daily Show correspondent, and how crazy Oliver Stone really is.
So David Mamet expects actors to be wooden? Guess that explains why he keeps putting his mannequin-faced wife in movies.
I also hope saying Corddry is "less complicated" than some other guests isn't a failure on his part. I won't lie, I liked Bobby Lee's story and how messed up it was in parts. But I like how comedians/artists/people can be informed by such wildy different things. Well adjusted or otherwise. It show in and of itself how complicated humans are.
Guilty as charged. I really don't care much about Marc's "recovery" in this instance. I'm sure Smith is even a fun guy, obviously not a dolt, but I just can't stand his work or his attitude. And it is a silly precedent to set. Smoke when Marc comes to YOUR garage. But apologies for hijacking Corddry's comments thread this way: good interview, that one.
Must start meditating myself... ("Kevin Smith, what a lazy sack of..." -- POP!)
Winkler in Arrested was genius! Great episode Marc.
Looking forward to the Kevin Smith interview - curious to know what you and the wind-bag chatted about.
