Summary

We go back into the WTF Shoebox Vault to find another unaired pilot for The Marc Maron Show in Los Angeles from 2006. This time the guest was comedian Maria Bamford, the sidekick was still Jim Earl, and the investigative reporter was Eddie Pepitone. The only people who ever heard this were the people who made it, plus one angry program director who didn't want to put it on the air.

Okay, let's do this. It's another episode of WTF Uncovered, which is things that my producer

0:16.0

Brendan McDonald found in a box underneath his bed. There's going to be a few different

0:20.8

things. Like next week, we're going to do an uncovered, which is basically it is an

0:26.6

actual WTF interview that never aired due to circumstances. I will explain on the show,

0:32.0

but today's uncovered is a little bit like the last one last Friday's. It's a lot like

0:38.6

it. These are segments from another unared pilot episode for the Mark Maren show, a radio

0:45.3

show we did on KTLA in 2006. These were done for the GM of the radio station to get our

0:54.6

spot, which we already had, I think in retrospect. I think he was just making us jump through

0:59.3

hoops because he hated the idea that he would give me a show. But there was some sort of

1:04.9

deal made that was above him, and it was going to happen anyways. But these were, this

1:10.2

is the second of two pilots that we did for the Mark Maren show. Now, on this one, you

1:14.7

will hear again, Jim Earl is my sidekick, the wonderful and cranky Jim Earl, and the

Maria, but still perfectly and beautifully Maria. And this was also the first time we

1:35.2

used Eddie Peppatone, who some of you may know. We used him as an investigative reporter.

1:42.2

He did an investigative reporter segment. This was radio. We did segments. We did funny

1:46.8

things. So enjoy this. Enjoy this WTF uncovered with Jim Earl, Maria Bamford, and the amazing

1:56.5

Eddie Peppatone from 2006.

Live from Burbank, California, home of Eve Plum, the only Brady who likes sex. It's the

Mark Maren show. And now a man who sleeps in Grover Cleveland's bathtub. Mark Maren.

Good evening, geniuses, philosopher, kings and queens, working class heroes, progressive
