Summary

For the two-year anniversary of No Guitar Is Safe, I am proud to bring you a guitar hang with "the Jimi Hendrix of podcasting," MARC MARON. I met up with the famed interviewer/comedian/actor (and, yes, guitarist) in his now-legendary garage — the same place he has interviewed everyone from famous actors, musicians, and comedians to President Obama. The garage is also the same place where, as you'll hear, Marc likes to crank up vintage amps and play the blues. (Check out Maron's new hit comedy series, GLOW, which is binge-watchable now on Netflix!) Thanks for listening to No Guitar Is Safe. JUDE GOLD Host, No Guitar Is Safe

0:06.0	Wow, here we are two years in, everybody.
0:19.0	Well, almost two years, maybe the second week of July will be two years, I believe. I'm not really a stickler about the calendar, but I thought it would be neat to have a cool two-year guest. So I invited the great podcaster, the Jimmy Hendrix of podcasting, Mark Marin, to be on the show. And it came in a little early, the interview. So here we are.

0:57.4	folks. I went there. Man, I went there. I went to the garage. Everyone's asking me,
1:00.4	are you going to the garage? Man, I went to the garage, man. I brought my gear, set up some
1:05.8	mics. I know it's kind of like bringing a Fostex 4 track to Abbey Road.
1:15.0	Mark Merrin's little back spot that is the Abbey Road of podcasting.
1:18.4	And I went there and we hung out.
1:22.6	And I sat in the same little orange chair with a funky little cushion on it that President Obama sat in when he was in that same spot.
1:26.5	And we jammed because if you know anything about
1:28.6	Mark Marin, he jams a lot on his podcast, at least plays guitar by himself at the end or at the
1:33.2	beginning. Sometimes he's got an earthquakeer devices pedal plugged in. He's got all kinds of cool
1:39.1	toys, but mostly he's got this vintage gear and he's got this vintage soul, man. an old blues dog and I just I couldn't wait to sit down with him and play we just went totally bareback today in terms of
1:51.4	guitar cable amp I brought a point-to-point wired cornford little combo to try to get as bluesy as I can because I don't have any cool vintage amps. Mark plays through this
