Marc Maron
​

Marc Maron and his producer, Brendon McDonald, first asked me to design a special T-shirt to commemorate the WTF podcast’s 10th anniversary, which I did, and they loved it. Their marketing and production rep, Marisa Morales of Midroll Co., then contacted me and asked, “How can we push this even further? Think bigger, and the sky's the limit”.  So I pitched a glow-in-the-dark T-shirt series, matching large-scale collectible posters on beautiful heavy stock, an enamel die-cut pin, and custom decals, and then threw it all in one custom-designed package. I figured I’d be lucky if they went with a fraction of that.

 

Her reply? “Great. You got 2 weeks”. And for the next 2 weeks, I was the luckiest kid in the candy store.

 

And it got even better - the Marc microphone octopus poster was used as a prop in a bar scene for HBO's Sex In The City continuation series, "And Just Like That". So, does Carrie Bradshaw/Sarah Jessica Parker know who I am now? Fuck no, but she certainly saw my poster. I like that.
