Great to hear Stew giving it to Mark straight.. like a pear cider made from 100% pears 🍐
He really brought the values of the Car Phone warehouse to life in this interview....
Yep, and Marc seemed happy with that. About as happy as you would be if you'd invited some friends round, served them some mash, and they said, "Oh, this mash is nice."
a bit distasteful to give Bosnian warlord Ratko Mladic a platform
As tired as I am of the '[insert literally anyone here] has let themself go' comments under every single video even vaguely related to Stewart Lee, this one made me laugh a lot. Well done.
@@iamjurell has let himself go
Well the woman at The Hague filled the form in wrong and told him he could go off.
Interview starts: 12:22
Alright? = Hello
You alright? = Are you alright?
Are you alright? = You don't look alright
👌👌👌
Interview starts at approx 13 minute mark if you're interested
I was starting to wonder
Not all heroes wear capes.
I'd love Stew to do a whole book on the history of UK Standup, between this and his own book, he is excellent at understanding the artform he does so well and imparting that understanding
I like how Maron describing Herring as a "sweet guy" set Stew off laughing.
Maron is a loser who is so emotionally fragile know one can tell him he's unfunny. Norm MacDonald tried (awkwardly) during a podcast once, but that's as close as it's come. Him acting like he's a successful stand up is a tragic delusion. In fact his entire life is a tragic delusion.
@@jameslutian1977 Shush now
@@jameslutian1977 It's all very subjective about his funniness, but he's obviously quite successful as a comedian. An unsuccessful comedian would be a guy who can't make a living off it and who no-one has heard of apart from the people they bore down the local open mic, and even they forget the name shortly after.
I'm NOT a comedy snob, truly I'm not... But, Stewart Lee is the DISTILLATION of everything we know and love about good comedy... By the way, clever as he ARCHLY is, there is a genuine soul at the centre of his humour... If Lee challenges ANYONE, (and he does...) he challenges himself more... It's TOO EASY to say that if you don't GET Stewart Lee then you know FUCK ALL about the art of comedy and how he USURPS that... (It's also TRUE to say that!!!) xx SF
+Steve Sandford Incidentally, Marc Maron GOT HIM!!! ("Humanist, sympathetic, HUMILITY!!!") There is GREAT LOVE at the heart of Lee's material... xx SF
Yes you are
Stewart Lee's sets are so good to listen when you feel like venting your anger
Stewart @ 12:35
thanks, he does go on a bit
+Joe Lover what do you mean? Are you calling me a "fucking runt"? if so why?
thanks. that other guys sucks
Only on the wonderful, free access media platform that is CZcams does a timestamp comment draw out mundane comments that then lead to poorly constructed vitriol. lol.
thanks
I thought it was quite good that Hicks bit. I love Bill Hicks, yet It was pretty clear to me what Stewart was doing in that bit. Well, great explication anyway. Hope to see Lee in the UK next year, what a great stand-up comedian. He oozes humanity a originality, he's a good guy and very talented.
@Marc Maron "If a British (or Irish...) person says, 'You Alright?" that just means 'Hello!' Well, MOSTLY... If you've just been in a car-accident and somebody says, 'You Alright?' that's most likely a genuine inquiry..." xx SF
Heh, 'You alright?' is just 'Hello' here in the UK.
Ye when he said that it proper annoyed me
I'm aware of the big discrepancy between what it means in UK and US, however, in the UK it's still less friendly than saying 'hello', especially when you think this is someone who's just been to his show (that said, it doesn't surprise me). It's sort of like acknowledging someone's presence without wanting to introduce yourself.
@@luke-alex it all depends on how you say it though,if you sort of mumble then that's like how ur describing but alot of people use it instead of hello
@@MiloGornerDJextraordinaire Good point!
Terry Christian has let himself go.
57:24 - Reference to the ACTOR Kevin Eldon
Thank you so much for uploading.
stewart lee would make a brilliant teacher
This is great. I like Maron and he let's Stew talk as he seems interested
late to the party, but i'm a huge fan of stew lee, so props to marc for featuring him and for accurately identifying him in his intro as a unique comic which he certainly is. well interviewed too.
Morrissey has let himself go.
Stewart Lee has let Richard Herring go!!!
12 minute intro! That's a long time to wait to here a man let himself go.
"Y'alright?" is a greeting more than a question for a lot of people.
Don’t know how I missed this one but heck let’s go
Loved the intro and your visit to the Tate Modern. Nailing it, delivered like those brush strokes Fella. Thanks
"We have these religious wackos in the States as well."
No shit.
Thanks for the upload, cheers.
Marc Maron WTF with Hari Kondabolu brought me here
"Are you alright" seems to confuse an American as much as "What's up" does to an Englishman
This is a severely underrated observation
Agreed, and for the exact same reason. In the UK 'what's up?' is a genuine inquiry which means 'what's wrong, why are you upset/annoyed?'. Back in the 90s when I first heard an American ask me 'what's up?', I replied 'Nothing, why?'. He looked confused and said 'No, just saying whatssup'. It took me a while to realise he was just saying 'hello, how are you?', like when we say "alright mate'.
Slightly mispronouncing an every day word confuses an American.
Sweet, two of the best comedians just shooting the shit. Thanks.
Hosh Y one sounds thick when sat next to the other
Hosh Y and stewart doesnt flog dildos for 'adam & eve ' its cringeworthy to compare them even
Stewart Lee and some guy i dont know and i now know why.
The best interview I've heard with Lee - I don't know if it's Marc's technique particularly (tho he is good at being complimentary and he's actually done research) so much as Lee being sober and undepressed at the time of it, but whatever, a good result is achieved.
When is he not sober?
A good example is his second Leicester Square Theatre Podcast with Richard Herring, the "TMWRNJ Reunion" one.
Matthew McVeagh I've listened to that a couple of times - it is a little bizarre, he hardly lets anyone else speak and seems in a pretty bad mood. I assumed it was because he wasn't that keen on going back over all that old stuff (which he doesn't seem to rate as highly as Herring) and that he doesn't think it merits re-releasing. Wouldn't have said he is drunk though (even if he was drinking during it) Apparently he also went on about Herring's agents for ages, and how they were treating him badly, which resulted in a bit of an awkward atmosphere in the room (all that was cut out)
That's cool. When I think of Stewart Lee, I do think of The Fall.
+megagun56 Me too! I've never been able to explain it completely
There's lyrics about Lee in at least one Fall song. Don't think they're complimentary! :-D
This was good.
Stewart Lee has an eskimo face from the 90's.
“Are you alright “ means Hello
yalright means hello lol
William Shatner has let himself go.
Interesting to hear him say that Gervais was crucial to him taking off
Marc should have Richard Herring as a guest on his podcast (or vise versa).
Yeah. Rich should definitely do WTF (or wuh-tuh-fuh, as I believe some of the cool kids have started calling it) Or maybe Marc could answer that age old question of whether the first stroke is away or towards.
It's also interesting to point out both of their last names are also names of fish.
I like Rich. I listen to RHLSTP regularly but I'm not sure what Marc could talk to him about that would make for a great interview... "where do you get your crazy ideas from?"
Herring gets enough publicity via his own absurd over-exposure...give room to some better talent!
Stewart Lee is probably the best stand up in England. No one really comes close. If you want some more English comedy then check out Brass Eye. Chris Morris is a genius. Also, "Y'alright" is just like saying hello, it's not a question! I understand how it can sound weird but she was almost certainly being friendly and just trying to say hi. Probably trying to initiate a conversation.
If someone says "y'alright' then all you need to say back is "y'alright". Just think of it as saying "hey".
28:26 - jazz comparison
Artist. Comedy is creation of the moment and the Comedian is the Curator... Curator of Current comedy is more like it....
Marc finishes his guests sentences a lot.
most often not quite in the way stew was going to.
very interesting, love Stewart Lee, but also love Maron's total ability 'to get'Stewart Lee.... xx
hey marc...where did you get that jacket?
13:00 before the payload, now that's padding!
It's ironic that Mark would make the perfect Jerry Springer
Great podcast.
2 great minds!
1 great mind
Ok Marc. We'll stop saying "wee" when you people stop asking for directions to the "bathroom". Are you going to have a bath? In my house? During dinner? No, you need to do a shit so just ask where the toilet is.
where's the bog?
Then why don't you ask for the shitter?
Comments here confirm my suspicion that Stew would not do well in the US. Of course, that suspicion is not a startling insight. His shows require a conscious investment.
People like you are the biggest problem of Lee and the reason he might never make it in the USA .. i keep on trying to convey this insight to Lee.
@@mikeschneider1624 So true.
This is really interesting. I love interviews between intelligent people.
Also Stewart Lee and an American.
13 minutes of WTF
For a moment… I thought Mike Oldfield was being interviewed.
Hellboy has let himself go.
Barrabas has let himself go!
So much hate in this comment section.
Like rats in a ditch...
Most Stewart Lee fans criticize the fuck out of him in the comments, mostly because his whole shtick is crying about how he's hated, while he isn't really. So it's less bad than it looks. Any post with "let himself go" and "patience testing wank" are quotes from his own shows. :)
Morrissey has let himself go. But Stewart Lee sounds well
Soupy Sales, meet Oscar Wilde.
pauljones651 If Maron knew anything about Lee he'd know that he, Maron, (as just another lazy, cliché-milking sub-Vegas chuckle-merchant) is *The Enemy*. Just another scene from the long, slow martyrdom of the genius called Stewart Lee. Christ.
Velvet-Starship-NOW Do you actually see Maron as 'The Enemy'? Or are you as irony-clad as Paul?
ASH18YEARS You've come up with a new way of saying that your standards are much lower than mine. Congratulations.
Velvet-Starship-NOW You've come up with a boring way of saying that you're boring, stay on topic.
Do you really see Maron as 'The Enemy'? And, if so, what is he The Enemy of?
pauljones651 Thought you might like that, Paul.
This is champion this. Stew is the g.o.a.t. ✌
Terry Christian has let himself go
Gary Oldman's let himself go.
12:40
My mate Anthony Donahue has let himself go.
This is like a dog listening to classical music.
Jesus fucking Christ 12:46 you're welcome
Stewart Lee has let Stewart Lee go

Marc Maron does stuff:
There's some strange light emanating from the Chinese people.
It's weird now to hear Stewart expressing his thanks towards Gervais, almost going as far as to credit Gervais for his own resurgence, considering how much time he's spent since then slagging Gervais off.
Yeah, I thought I remembered him slagging Ricky off.
15:55 TUSS COME TO TED'S SICK FUCK'N JOKE EMPORIUM.
Ted Chippington sounds like a nightmarish combination of Jim Norton characters
Hey Americans if someone doesn't know London is in England already then telling them yet again isn't going to matter.
+Seán O'Nilbud There is also a London, Ontario located in Canada.
Today was the day for paintings and pork belly. Today was the day.
Stewart Lee let himself go, just trying to fit in...
The Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man has let himself go.
Maron making a fool of himself.
bleurgh
Hey, Morom.
Y'alright = How you doing - he'd get that would he not. American who thinks there's no variations of language. So closed minded.
You're not a clever man, Marc
unlistenable
Bruce Willis has really let himself go!
Boring - This is also a little hypocritical that Stew would do this - and his pseudo intellectual approach to his 'art' is just tedious. Be funny Stew, that's what we want to hear and see. When I buy a car, its for tidings of comfort and joy. I couldn't give a fuck about the state of the engine as long as it works.
"Be funny Stew, that's what we want to hear and see"
-_-
Tony Howard I hate to agree with you because I love Stew but I fear you are on to something here. Don't milk it Stew!
Tony Howard "I couldn't give a fuck about the state of the engine as long as it works."
I think the jokes are on you here mate.
Tony Howard But that's not what Stewart Lee does... he's admitted that he's not a mega funny guy just off the cuff in real life. He puts his routines together meticulously, that's what he does... You know, I'm sorry you haven't found the HILLLLLLLLARIOUS banter that you crave... Russell Howard was too busy to come down and feed Stew jokes about how mad shit is, I guess.
Patronising twat.
