Marc Maron: End Times Fun is a comedy special presented by American comedian, Marc Maron. The special has been directed by Lynn Shelton, who passed away in 2020. The show has been filmed at the start of 2020, before the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world. In this comedy show, Maron talks about various subjects like religion, social relationships, politics, mental health, and pop culture.
The special starts with Maron opening up his show by saying that he is no longer surprised by anything happening in the world, as the world has gone through several tumultuous events in the recent past. He then talks about how life has changed in the last decade and how the era of accountability has started.
As the show progresses, Maron defends his stance on being an atheist. He also talks about the fakeness of "wellness culture" and the nonsense of multivitamins and supplements. He goes off on a tangent about how he's become obsessed with mortality in his 50s, and imagines various fantasy scenarios of the world ending.
In the second half of the show, Maron gets into politics and how the division in the US runs deep. He then segues into discussing his personal life, his past relationships and the issues he dealt with.
Overall, Marc Maron: End Times Fun comes off as a hilarious and insightful special about the issues plaguing the world today, and how we as individuals deal with them. It's not for everyone, as some may find the humor too blue at times, but Marc Maron fans will appreciate this latest special in his repertoire.
