    Marc Maron is the person who people think the lot of these guys like Burr are. His comedy/commentary is earnest. He has conviction. People like Burr are performative commentary. They go back to the dressing room to wash off the clown makeup so they can go back to being their private self. They don’t give a shit about the things the say into the mic.

      Burr is pretty genuine, and he’s come a long way in the past 5-10 years (largely due to his awesome wife). However, he’s still a “both sides” liberal when it comes down to it.

      Maron is the real deal.
