    I watched this a couple years ago before I knew who Marc Maron was and when I watched it the other week I laughed my ass off at his scene. He's my favorite part of this video, hands down.

  • @IAmSippycup

    Aimee Mann and Duff McKagan also appeared on Portlandia for essentially the same joke. Is there just a reserve of musicians on standby for cameo work?
