Marc Maron: 我在洛杉矶山火中经历了巨大的恐惧和无力感,这让我回想起911事件带给我的创伤。这次山火造成的巨大损失和集体性的无力感,让我感到非常震惊。我选择逃离,而不是对抗这场灾难,因为我不知道该如何对抗自然的力量。我非常感激自己和家人平安无事,但我的内心仍然充满了悲伤和担忧,因为这场灾难对许多人造成了巨大的损失。我非常同情那些失去一切的人们,也对那些奋战在抗灾第一线的消防员们表示敬意。 我意识到,在面对如此巨大的灾难时,人的本能反应是逃离,而不是对抗。虽然我热爱洛杉矶,但我仍然选择离开,因为我不知道该如何对抗这场灾难。有些人批评我的选择,认为我应该留下来与城市共渡难关,但我认为,在面对不可抗拒的自然灾害时,适应和生存才是最重要的。 面对山火威胁,我首先想到的是我的宠物猫的安全。我宁愿冒一些风险,也要确保它们的安全。这可能有点疯狂,但我无法忍受它们因为我的疏忽而受到伤害。 Mo Welch: 由于洛杉矶山火,我的岳父母失去了房子,我们不得不逃离到沙漠中避难。这让我感到非常沮丧和无助。我目前正处于创伤状态,并且正在经历它。虽然我经历过很多艰难困苦,但我仍然感到震惊和恐惧。 我的童年时期家庭环境混乱且贫困。我的父亲经常离家出走,每次都会持续很长时间,这给我幼小的心灵带来了极大的不安。我的父亲曾入狱,这对我母亲和我们姐弟妹的生活带来了巨大的影响。我12岁时,目睹了父亲对母亲的暴力行为,并协助母亲带着我们逃离。 直到我开始从事喜剧表演,我才意识到自己是同性恋。我花了十年时间才在喜剧表演方面有所成就。我在芝加哥的喜剧生涯中,经历了从开放麦到在知名俱乐部演出的过程。我的单口喜剧特辑《Dad Jokes》反响不错,并且我目前正在参与一部办公室题材的电视剧的创作和演出。

After evacuating her home and consoling family members who lost their house in the LA fires, comedian Mo Welch acknowledges that she’s visiting Marc’s garage while still somewhere on the trauma spectrum. But she’s not a stranger to that spectrum, nor to processing it, having just made a standup special that’s also a documentary about meeting her estranged father. Mo and Marc talk about her childhood instability and the comedy path that was her salvation.
