WTF with Marc Maron Podcast

Episode 1626 - Jane Marie

17 Mar 2025

Description

Jane Marie’s early life in Michigan didn’t necessarily put her on the glide path to the future world of podcasting, but an internship at This American Life gave her a crash course in the type of journalism that allowed her to create The Dream podcast. Jane talks with Marc about the subject matter of The Dream’s past seasons, including pyramid schemes, the wellness industry, and life coaching, and why these topics are truly representative of modern day America.  Sign up here for WTF+ to get the full show archives and weekly bonus material! https://plus.acast.com/s/wtf-with-marc-maron-podcast.

Es kann texten, anrufen, chatten, snoozen, liken, entliken. Einfach alles, was ein brandneues Handy kann. Aber das hier ist deutlich günstiger. Denn es ist nicht neu. Es ist von Profis auf Herz und Nieren geprüft.

All right, let's do this. How are you, what the fuckers? What the fuck, buddies? What the fuck, Knicks? What's happening? I'm Marc Maron. This is my podcast. Welcome to it. How's it going? What's happening? Are you all right? I hope you're holding up. I got nothing but worry, man. I have nothing but worry in my head about all things. And, you know, I'm very tired of this idea of Vielen Dank.

That that concern and empathy and the panic ensuing from the situation is somehow mentally inappropriate. Go fuck yourself if you think that. Hold on to your brain. It's not Trump derangement syndrome. It's the normal reaction to the collapse of everything we know and understand. And look, you know, you're up against people that really...

Go to wtfpod.com slash tour for all my dates and links to tickets. Okay, do that. Today I'm talking to Jane Marie. Now, I've known her for years. She's a journalist and podcast creator. She used to work on This American Life. And then she launched her own podcast called The Dream. The first season focused on pyramid schemes.

200.459 - 228.35 Marc Maron

And then she did seasons looking at the wellness industry and life coaches. The Dream is now in its fourth season with new episodes weekly. Ah, yes, The Future of Medicine. The future of medicine, of treatment falls within the realms of the wellness industry. Yoga teachers, life coaches and guys with big ideas about what to eat. That's the future of treatment.
