Marc David Maron is a stand-up comedian, actor, and podcast host known for his candid and introspective comedic style. He gained early recognition through television and radio hosting roles, including The Marc Maron Show, Morning Sedition, and Breakroom Live. Maron has played a prominent role in the alternative comedy scene and became widely recognized for his influence on podcasting culture.
In 2009, following a difficult period both personally and professionally, Maron launched the podcast WTF with Marc Maron from his garage. The show quickly rose to prominence, becoming one of the most downloaded and influential comedy podcasts. Featuring interviews with comedians, musicians, writers, and public figures—including Barack Obama during his presidency—WTF has been praised for its raw, emotionally resonant tone.
Marc Maron has been married twice. His first marriage was to Kimberly Reiss in 1997; the couple divorced in 2001. In 2004, he married fellow comedian and writer Mishna Wolff.

Following his second divorce, Maron began a relationship with Jessica Sanchez. In June 2013, he announced on his podcast that he had proposed to her—placing the engagement ring on top of a stack of pancakes he made for her birthday. Despite his intentions to have a more adventurous and fulfilling partnership, the relationship became strained, and by October 2013, he publicly stated that they had broken up due to its emotional complexity.
In 2014, Maron mentioned during an episode of WTF that he had begun dating writer and actress Moon Zappa. He described their first meeting as spontaneous, recounting how he was surprised when she visited his garage studio. They initially flirted and then began dating.
