Ep 3. The Field Trip

Marc Maron is back with another episode of his self-titled show, Maron, season 4 episode 3. The episode is called The Field Trip and takes a look at one of the most entertaining parts of childhood- going on a school field trip.

The episode kicks off with Marc's friend Dave coming over to his studio to ask if he wants to go on a field trip with him. Dave, who is a father now, is chaperoning his son's elementary school field trip to the science museum and wants Marc to join him for some company. Marc is initially hesitant, not wanting to relive his own childhood trauma of being left alone on a field trip thanks to his alcoholic mother.

Despite Marc's reservations, he agrees to go on the field trip, and what follows is a hilarious adventure that brings back memories of both the joys and horrors of going on a school field trip.

Marc and Dave wind up in a car with a group of chatty parents, who are eager to dish about their kids' latest shenanigans. They eventually make it to the science museum, where a series of hijinks ensue. Marc and Dave find themselves lost in the museum, surrounded by a sea of screaming kids and pushy parents. The chaos of the museum is only compounded by Marc's decision to get high on edibles before the trip.

As the day progresses, Marc and Dave find themselves getting more and more lost in the museum, navigating through a maze of exhibits and displays. Along the way, they encounter a variety of interesting characters, including a group of kids who are convinced that Marc is a famous comedian and insist on taking selfies with him.

The episode is a fun, light-hearted exploration of the joys and pitfalls of going on a school field trip. It expertly captures the chaos, confusion, and excitement of a typical field trip, making us nostalgic for that time in our own childhoods.

Overall, The Field Trip is a must-watch for anyone who's ever been on a school field trip, or simply wants to relive the experience vicariously through Marc Maron's hilarious antics.
