Mara seems like a really cool person. I just listened to the behind the bastards episode with her and she felt exceptionally genuine.

Same here, I actually got this post from the Behind the Bastards sub. She was a great guest.

Usually Robert and Sophie are good about getting the guests that vibe with the show back for more so here’s hoping! Ed Helms wasnt bad either but he didn’t riff as well with Robert

I liked the Ed Helms episodes. He approached the subject as more of a journalist than a comedian. Which sort of changes things up. Robert got to rock some of his own journalism.

I think with a slightly different subject matter the two could mesh quite well.

Maybe something that Ed Helms has some passing knowledge of.

Oh I really liked them too, and I agree that Robert appreciated Ed’s questions, but I also think he had more fun with Mara. And I know Robert doesn’t give a personal fuck that he was talking to someone as famous as Ed Helms, but I got the impression he was trying to be as professional as he’s capable of being because it would be really good for Cool Zone overall if they get more big names like him on.

she was active in the Weird Twitter scene (pre musk) and blew up a bunch of mine and my friends dumb joke tweets.

She also wrote a great book that I recommend.

"Where Am I Now? True Stories of Girlhood and Accidental Fame"

We know the author, can't be too hard to figure out :)

Assuming she only has one book.
