The two-part Carlos Mencia episode was one of the most fascinating thing I've ever downloaded for free. If you're on the fence at all, check those out.

I'd like to see Tom sit down with Marc, too.

But I dread the coffee slurping and the inevitable "BLAM" (or whatever he says).

I definitely don't dread the "SLURP! BAM!" (I kinda like it as a catch phrase), but I'm not sure I'd want to purchase a coffee that makes Marc shit his pants.

I think he's just exaggerating one of the less-talked-about health benefits of coffee drinking.

He's not exaggerating and has, in fact, shit his pants nearly 100 times plugging justcoffee.coop.  It's why he had to buy new jeans.

Started listening to WTF myself. Good stuff, indeed! Very interesting interviewer, and I always enjoy when he talks with his dad.
He's this soulless bastard from Siberia. I once saw him shove Fred Savage's face in a toilet.

The Dane Cook interview is really good.

Although not on the same level as Mencia, Cook comes off a slightly bitter, kinda angry dude.  It's worth a listen; Marc does a great job of bringing up the Louis CK controversy and, IMO, Dane has a much better answer than Carlos.  It's a really good conversation, although it definitely didn't convert me as a Dane Cook fan (not that that was the purpose of the interview, but I like to go into the WTFs with comics I have a pre-conceived notion about with an open mind.  See also: The Jim Norton interview). 

I've really enjoyed the last few WTFs; pretty much everything since the Mencia podcasts have been good (although I haven't listened to The Sklar Bros. one yet).  It's found a place in my weekly Podcast playlist.

ALSO: Marc's material about the one comic stealing Dane's "essence" is great. 

The bit about 'stealing my essence' was great, especially as he seemed to be genuinely annoying Dane Cook. Dane started to sound like some HR guy trying to keep the office goof in line.

I just listened to the Dane Cook interview today. He came across as a nice enough guy to me. At no point did he say anything funny, but I'm more inclined to believe his version of his "joke stealing" accusations than I am Mencia's. I don't know if he seemed bitter and angry. I thought he just seemed a little overly defensive and was really on guard in case Maron really decided to go at him. I think he's probably got some mental problems, but I also think anyone who reaches his level of success has to be a little bit nuts.

Talk about a two-way tie for last...
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

I loved how Patrice O'Neal kept punctuating the horrible things he was saying with the refrain, "But I don't do that because I'm a good person."

Obviously Patrice, because I wouldn't want you thinking I'm a racist.

So you admit to being an anti-Semite?

The correct answer is Maron, because I hate your sister.

I knew I should've just covered all my bigot basis with Mel Gibson.

I'm only halfway through the episode now, but what a piece of work that guy is. The analogy about the fish who jumps back in the boat was so revealing of his damaged psychology that I laughed out loud in my car.
