Standup comedian, actor, writer and podcast pooh-bah Marc Maron put his pint-sized 1920s Spanish bungalow with its world-famous podcasting and radio studio in the hills of L.A.’s rapidly gentrifying Highland Park ‘hood up for sale at $749,000.
Maron converted to a recording studio for his “WTF with Marc Maron” podcast and radio show, now in its ninth year with more than a quarter million downloads per episode. Although comedians Daniel Tosh, Jon Stewart, Schecky Greene and Bill Cosby have all reportedly declined invitations to appear on the popular podcast, Maron has no shortage of famous folk who’ve happily made the trek to his Highland Park garage-studio including, in 2015, then sitting president Barak Obama. In 2010 late comedy legend Robin Williams discussed contemplating suicide on the podcast; comedian Todd Glass came out as gay on the show in 2012; And last year “Saturday Night Live” cast member Pete Davidson revealed and discussed his Borderline Personality Disorder diagnosis and treatment. A short list of Maron’s other big name guests includes Will Ferrell, Al Gore, Bruce Springsteen, Zach Galifianakis, Greta Gerwig, Ta-Nehisi Coates, Jennifer Lawrence, Marilyn Manson, Chris Rock and the always entertaining Sharon Stone.
