I've interviewed singer Tara Tinsley before, in fact she was one of my first video interviews way back before I knew what I was doing. I still don't, but I've improved quite a bit so I was glad Sarah and I were able to get together with her for another take. Also, she gave us an awesome private concert.

Years ago, Sarah Bollinger and I were on tour through Tennessee looking for big and original Bloody Marys for my book which led us to the Nashville Hot Chicken restaurant Party Fowl and an opportunity to interview the owner, Austin Smith. Now, six years later Austin's Party Fowl has branched out into multiple locations, he's been on TV with Shaquille O'Neal and interviewed by Guy Fieri, but he sti...

On tour in Chicago, I met up with comedian and improviser Peter Kim whom I started with in San Francisco.

As a comedian, I have always been interested in Burlesque as they are closely related artforms. Over the years I have befriended and interviewed many burlesque stars, but none as uncontainable as Mourna Handful!  Mourna is an extraordinary and interesting burlesque performer with a really unique approach to taking off her clothes.  Please listen, like and share!   To help support my...

I first met Jesse Ever a few years ago on a comedy tour through Arizona. Now I'm in Texas and he's the one on tour. Fortunately he was able to squeeze me in between gigs for a chat about Buc-ee's, art, and his horribly tragic beginning to his comedy career. There's a lot of laughs, a lot of Buc-ee's love, some therapy, and as a bonus my daughter Alyssa makes several appearances in the interview. C...

Well, it looks like "On the Road" is going to be grounded in Texas for a bit, but at least there are an abundance of opportunities to collaborate with talented artists.  Like singer Katie Star, for example. Sarah and I interviewed her in her studio perched high above the streets of downtown Dallas. Katie is a talented jazz singer, with a penchant for music from the 40s to 60s, and leader of t...

While still living in Hollywood, I sat down with my friend Sanjini to discuss her career as an actress, nude art model, filmmaker and author.

In 2012 I produced a couple of comedy shows in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania under the name "Fresh Cut Comedy" to help raise some funds for my friends at Most Wanted Fine Art Gallery. Based in California at the time, I reached out to the local comedy community through social media and many talented people answered the call. Among them were the incredibly funny Chris Kemp and Dan Jenniches who were nice...

By now you may be thinking that if you spend enough time with me, you are going to end up in a video, on a podcast or some other kind of media. For a while, that was probably true as this episode implies.  After taking my mother on tour with me for two weeks in 2012, my father joined us in Charleston, South Carolina. We had a great time and they shared several stories of my childhood that I w...

In 2012 when I first started touring, I found myself in Tacoma, Washington and stumbled on to the newly established Tacoma Comedy Club. It was a night with headliner Mike Brody from Minnesota, featuring Cory Michaelis and host Jonas Barnes. All three were great and afterwards they were nice enough to talk to me for my new radio show. Although they aired out of order, this was only my second interv...

On tour in Seattle, my brother Jon and I met up with artist Nichole , an old friend from Texas, for some seafood and early podcasting. This was originally recorded in 2012 for my radio show and was one of my earliest episodes. I think I sound like I am trying to hard too be funny (and failing) but Sarah found inspiration in Nichole's story so I decided to share it anyway. Please listen, like and s...

It was her birthday recently and I was reminded of my first interview with one of the most amazing people I have ever met.

It has been several months since the last podcast and in that time the world has experienced the horrible Covid-19 pandemic. In a chain of events that seemed to unfold overnight people were suddenly out of work, travel was restricted, and comedian George Redd Speaks was released from prison.  That's right, Prison.  He went from being locked up to living in lockdown. As the world is start...
