Meet Caleb Hearon, comedian & actor starring in 'Devil Wears Prada 2'
Gotta love Caleb Hearon. River Callaway/Variety via Getty Images Caleb Hearon at the grand premiere of HBO Max's Sweethearts. Social media has proved to be a useful tool in helping comedians who rightfully deserve fame an audience. Caleb Hearon made a name for himself in the comedy space before TikTok, but his star rose exponentially after getting exposure online. He started out performing a weekly variety show at The iO Theater in Chicago and later ended up touring a showcase called At What Cost? with his best friend, Holmes, in Los Angeles and New York. He started posting more on X, gaining prominence on there before posting more videos on TikTok. At the same time, he began dipping his toe into the entertainment industry — writing on the Big Mouth spinoff Human Resources and landing roles in movies like Jurassic World: Dominion and Sweethearts on HBO Max with upcoming roles in The Devil Wears Prada 2, Little Brother with John Cena, Eric André, and Ego Nwodim; as well as the Lily Wachowski directed film Trash Woman. He releases his podcast, So True, every Thursday featuring chats with his comedian and actor friends, and shares clips to his TikTok audience of over 951,000 followers. Now, he's gearing up to release his debut standup special on HBO Max later this year.

Marc Maron's Podcast Made Him a Better Comic, Just One Part of a Rich Legacy
Marc Maron recently announced he would end his podcast, 'WTF,' in the fall, and the response from comedians, especially those a generation or two younger than him, has been strikingly personal. On Instagram, Rosebud Baker described listening to hundreds of episodes of 'WTF' as a kind of school for stand-up, while Dan Rosen told me that he was disappointed he never got to be on the show and that every one of his peers fantasized about telling their life stories on it. 'I didn't have Johnny's couch,' the stand-up Mike Lawrence wrote in a social media post, referring to 'The Tonight Show' host Johnny Carson: 'My generation of comics coming up had Marc's garage,' where the podcast initially originated. Maron was neither the first stand-up to have a podcast nor the most popular (that would be Joe Rogan, who started a few months after Maron in 2009). But he was the most important to the art of comedy. Long before it became common practice, Maron proved that you could become a star by going around the usual gatekeepers and that large audiences would listen loyally to two comics talking shop at length. Like so many trailblazers of new digital forms, he has become one of its harshest critics. 'I feel like I released the Kraken,' he told John Mulaney on the episode revealing he was retiring the podcast. Maron regularly hammers the popular comics in the Rogan orbit as the second coming of morning-zoo talk radio or, worse, fascist propagandists. In his entertainingly prickly new special 'Panicked' (HBO Max), Maron quips: 'If Hitler was alive today, he'd probably appear on Theo Von's podcast.' Maron, 61, is often positioned (including by himself) in opposition to Rogan, 57, but they have a lot in common. Around the same stage in life, they both worked in mainstream pop culture before becoming podcast pioneers. They revere stand-up, are interested in politics and regularly wax poetic about the Boston comedy scene, even name-checking the same artists. When I saw Maron in the 1990s, he had a large interest in conspiracy theories. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
