Call Me Mommy with Marc Maron & David Farrier

July 16, 2026 · 54 min

Show notes

This week on Boy Problems, you're getting a front-row seat to our live show at The Elysian. Recorded in front of a studio audience on Canada Day, Liz joins the inimitable Marc Maron and the endlessly curious David Farrier for an unfiltered conversation you do not want to miss.

Together they unpack why young men are choosing hate over sex, whether the manosphere is just repressed homosexuality, what made Marc Maron change his ways, and why the pursuit of happiness might be the most dangerous thing about America. Three brilliant minds, zero media training, and enough hot takes to start a fist fight.
