How Marc Maron's WTF podcast changed the game? + Why is Rush back!

Marc Maron’s groundbreaking podcast WTF is over – he dropped his very last episode this week, more than 15 years after it launched. Culture critics Dominic Tardiff and Niko Stratis join Elamin Abdelmahmoud to talk about how the podcast changed them, changed public discourse, and so much more. Plus - tickets for Rush's tour officially go on sale this Friday. Music journalist Annie Zaleski discusses the surprise return of the Canadian rock legends, whose surviving members will embark on a 50th-anniversary tour in 2026 – their first shows since the 2020 passing of their long-time drummer Neil Peart. And the moment when the band will introduce us to its newest member, drummer Anika Nilles. Fill out our listener survey here. We appreciate your input!
