Ariana Grande can link one song to her entire life as a performer, from her childhood days singing for her grandpa to her life as a global pop superstar to her performance as Galinda in Wicked. That song is Over the Rainbow. Ariana talks with Marc about the constant presence of music in her life, how she developed her songwriting process, why she sought out a vocal coach for Wicked, how she protects her mental health in an emotionally demanding business, and more.

Alright, let's do this. How are you, what the fuckers, what the fuck buddies, what the fuck nicks, what's happening? I'm Marc Maron, this is my podcast, welcome to it. It's called WTF, if you're not aware what you're listening to. That's always been the name. I don't know that we knew it'd be like a brand. For years we've been delivering it. For years. What's happening?
I don't know how it happened, but it happened. Ariana Grande is here today. Only one of the biggest stars in the world. She's one of these people... I don't know her whole catalog. I don't know a lot of it. You know, I got up to speed.
But one thing I always knew, even seeing her for 15 seconds, is that she's one of these profoundly talented people where the gift is so great, you kind of think it might come from outer space. I'm not calling her an it, but the gift. Maybe she's from outer space. I don't know. I knew when I got the opportunity to talk to her that I would have to take it because she's a magic person.
You know, it's where I don't know what your lives are like or how often you get to meet truly magical people. I've met a few, even with all the 1600 or so conversations I've had with people. The magic people are kind of... They're kind of rare, real magic people. I was talking to, who was I talking to about? I talked to James Mangold the other day. I'll put that out later about Dylan.
