Again, I completely respect anyone’s wish to remain anonymous in their recovery. I mention mine here only because it’s helped me when other people share their own stories. Thanks, other people.

Stephen Colbert honored the late Diane Keaton on The Late Show Monday night by re-airing her delightfully unhinged 2012 Colbert Report appearance—one he called “one of my favorite interviews I ever had the privilege of doing.”

12 years sober today. Thanks to all the people who’ve inspired me along the way. I think some of you know who you are. 😉

I wish! I’ve only been to Minneapolis once (for a wedding) and didn’t get to visit Oarfolk. Beautiful city though. I’d love to get back there again.

the ending of THE GODFATHER, the best american movie ever made, doesn't work without diane keaton's final look --- at the realization of who she's married and what her life is going to become and what corruption lurks behind closed doors. unforgettable, inimitable work. RIP.

Rest In Peace, Diane Keaton. Obviously as authentic and unique as she was brilliantly talented. This one really hurts.

Hi Marc, just wanted to say thanks for 16 years of your great podcast. I first discovered WTF in early 2010 right after Conan’s “Tonight Show” stopped and I was walking around LA in a daze for a few months. It really helped get me through that crazy time and I’ve been a huge fan of it ever since.

John Prine, “Angel From Montgomery”. It will always amaze me that he wrote this brilliant song in his early 20s. Happy Birthday to the late, great John Prine.

Glad things are good, Danielle. You deserve it! I loved that talk with Amy and Rachel too. By the way, if I remember correctly, Society’s Mirror was just a super-pretentious fake improv group name we joked about someone using.
