It's sad when someone as sad as Carrot Top has to have people holding his hand while another comedian does an interview. He could have come out of the interview triumphantly looking like a ''hard working comic'' but instead seemed like a kind of pampered basket case.
Yeah, I was really looking forward to this one, but sycophant buddy ruined it. I wonder what Carrot Top was afraid of. I can't recall Marc treating any of his interviewees in a disrespectful manner and unless you come off as a jerk (Gallagher, Mencia) he doesn't really do anything to make his interview subjects look bad. I would think Maron would be a pretty safe show to do for a guy like Carrot Top to do.
I don't know if Carrot Top listens to WTF, but considering the amount of shit he's taken over the years, I can't say I blame the guy for being cautious when going into such an interview setting. Maron doesn't have the cache to lock the toady in a room like Stern did.
As for dream guests, these are all pretty unlikely, but Steve Martin, Larry David, or (especially) Albert Brooks would be pretty great.
