Keane On Things

I discuss how I was never a hitter in football or a fighter in school. I also discuss the Hart Foundation of the WWF. Really interesting and important stuff. Also how preparation helps moderate nerves and when the best time to prepare is. RIP to Charles Grodin

Just absolute lunacy here. Topics are: Mother's Day, last minute planning, giving until it hurts, Shem Byron, SM SD chapter, Buzz Alrdin. RIP: Tawny Kitaen

I talk about losing my wallet in one of the worst places, but really the best place. What it means to me to have broken ground with Homeboy Industries relations. I only lived near there for 20 years, good thing I waited until returning to OC to reach out.  RIP: Astronaut Michael Collins, 3rd man on the moon, (kind of), Billie Hayes, Witchy Poo from HR Puff and Stuff/Sid and Marty Croft; Geno...

Oscar insignificance, Anthony Hopkins, Alumni Gathering, Red Asphalt Simulation. RIP: VP Walter Mondale, G Shock (Gregory Edward Jacobs [Digital Underground]), Songwriter Jim Steinman

Julian Edelman retired this week and even though he may eventually make it back to a certain roster on a certain team in Florida, I take a look at his career as well as Wes Welker. I also discuss generational experience and how it helps being born into a business/industry/skill set. RIP: DMX, Earl Simmons and Lee Aaker, the child star of the 1950s series "The Adventures of Rin Tin Tin"

I discuss regular season HS football during Spring! Recent gum surgery. The wisdom gained from time. Putting your skill set toward others instead of self. Santa Ana Guardian Angels back in the day. Red beret's and civic responsibility. 

Discussed here are Easter, March Madness, Eckhart Tolle and Jim Thorpe. Finding our place in the world right now can be tricky dick nixon. Maybe that's the challenge of the present and future. The past was tougher but people knew their "place in society" better, whereas now, the lack of clarity can be quite unsettling. 

Este semana I talk about the passing of Larry McMurtry and the importance of Lonesome Dove as a book and a mini-series and not just cause it was my father's fav movie. It set Duvall's legacy in stone and launched TLJ. Two actors who may have been at their very best in working together on this project. Also, we take a look at the legendary Howard Schenllenberger who started it all for the Universit...

I discuss Austin weekend of comedy and helping plan my 30th year HS reunion. My how time flies when you're an Eagle. Thank you to John Hartigan. RIP: Michelle George Blasdel, Dick Hoyt, marathoner, NBA star Elgin Baylor, actor Yaphet Kotto

In this episode of madness I discuss what I think might be a skill of mine and the importance of mediators. Whether it's the wars, racism, immigration, business, land development, what have you, brokers of peace are always necessary. RIP: Marvelous Marvin Hagler, broadcaster Roger Mudd

Discuss my first week behind the Orange Curtain, adjusting, career shifting, as well as trying to be a complete person. Something I never cared much about until my late 40's. Never thought it was important or necessary. Some guys realize this much sooner, thankfully. RIP: comedian Erik Myers, and SF poet Lawrence Ferlinghetti of City Lights Bookstore fame in North Beach

I talk about moving from LA to OC after 20 years. Only an hour away but really a world away. I'm even lower energy than normal but I'm the same level of all over the place so that's nice. I'm nervous about the move and career shift, but excited. Pretty jarring. Been a crazy year for all of us. Gum surgery is no bueno.

I never know how society continues after football concludes, but turns out people are capable of great things. In this episode I discuss the conclusion of football, my time in AZ coming to a close, seeing my sister's family, my drive in comedy show at Irvine, Valentine's Day and much more. RIP: Chick Corea, jass pianist

Once again, I make the podcast about football. In yet another episode of nothing I discuss the Super Bowl, Tom Brady, greatness (of which I know nothing about), why I love the Super Bowl and the World Cup, transitioning to the Private Sector, plans to move to OC, who will play in the Super Bowl next year, upcoming show at the Irvine Improv and Christopher Plummer. RIP: Christopher Plummer, Cecily...

I talk about the NFC and AFC title game and the upcoming Super Bowl. Makes me think I should just stick to a football podcast. I also discuss Beer Can Appreciation Day which is very important. Thanks for listening, even if it's out of sympathy. RIP: Hank Aaron, Larry King, Siegfried, Gregory Sierra, pitcher Don Sutton, Tony Jones of the Broncos

I talk about the influence of MLK and the 60's, the NFL Final Four and upcoming conference championship games, the legacy of the AFL, the book The Passion Economy by Adam Davidson. Thank you for listening. RIP: actress Jessica Campbell, Election and Freaks and Geeks

Lasorda the Great has passed to the great beyond. Capital building siege. Agent Orange dismount. The Passion Economy. RIP: Tommy, Sandra Scully, Tonya Roberts

Happy New Year. Can't believe this pod made it to 42 episodes. Did I just call it a "pod"? Ugh. As if. Gag me. Once again, I fail to stay on one topic. I think I jump ship sometimes because I don't feel it's interesting enough. Whatever. I discuss my love of the NY's holiday and how it brings us globally together more than any other holiday. I also get weird on the Wizard of Oz. Hoping for peace i...

I talk in this episode about the Todd’s I know, Phil Villapiano and the 70’s Raiders, Christmas in AZ, the process of aging out, the upcoming NYE show in Downtown Vegas, The Kids In the Hall, Cardinal DeAndre Hopkins, the shameful Ram’s uni’s and the wacky NFC West. RIP: Kevin Greene (Auburn, Ram, Steeler, Panther, Niners) Played college ball with Bo Jackson, coached the Packers, basketballer and...

Somehow I've made it to 40 episodes of this madness. Thank you for listening. I discuss a recent family holiday cookie exchange, the band Keane, Notre Dame in the final four, the need for parking meters to take pennies and what am I gonna do about aliens?  RIP: Lidia Menapace, Italian activist, and Fred Sassakamoose, Native American pro hockey player.

I talk in this episode of my desire to connect the country and world through their love of sports. I was happy with the USC/UCLA Mascot episode and trying to get a YouTube following. May start a Patreon account and throw all my slop on that. Still with iFinancialGroup two weeks strong! Witnessed some chid abuse this past weekend that has me torn about how much to involve myself. RIP: Chuck Yeager,...

In this episode I discuss sponsorship by iFinancialGroup of San Clemente, CA and the stonewall that is Todd Bodell. I talk about the legacy of Marv Marinovich and our journey to the ND/USC game of 1989 together and my physical mediocrity as an athlete. And I also touch on where I'll be after LA. AZ or OC possibly? Thanks for listening. RIP: David Lander (Squiggy from Laverne and Shirley), Marv Mar...

I discuss Thanksgiving and the recent loss of a friend. Being in AZ and visiting Tombstone. Also, a comedic legend signs off from Late Night Television, but not necessarily comedy. That man's name was Mo Green. Actually it is Conan O'Barbarian. Contribute to 'The Fightmaster Fund' on Gofundme if you can. RIP to dear friend Lesley Fightmaster.  RIP: Diego Maradona, David Prowse (original Darth...

In this episode I mistake the word "vaccine" for "antidote" cause I can't get the opening scene of Temple of Doom out of my head. I discuss Thanksgiving week, my new LA mechanic, why it's absolutely comedians who should be discussing politics and sleeping naked with socks. RIP: David Dinkens

A weird calm week for us all? Election has been decided. Everyone taking a breath hopefully. We can now focus on pandemic, the holidays and eventual inauguration. I discuss comedy Zoom shows and crippling shyness over the course of my life. One of my favorite movies is One, Two, Three. State of stand of stand up comedy in the Zoom era.  RIP: Tommy Heinsohn, Paul Hornung, Howie Meeker (Toronto...
