This Podcast Is... Uncalled For

On January 9, 2020, Mike gave a seminar on editing podcasts to the Kansas City Podcasters Meetup group (of which he is co-organizer).  He recorded the audio from that seminar, and it is now part of the podcast.

Andrew Rainey is a Bernie Sanders volunteer who helped Mike with his failed 2016 Kansas Senate campaign.  He talked with Mike on today's podcast about that campaign, specifically the March 2016 Democratic caucus.

Mike shares his thoughts on what happened during the 2016 election cycle, specifically his failed race for the Kansas Senate.

A few years ago, one of Mike's film friends made a short film "Tour of Kansas City."  The film serves as a great reference for Mike to kick off this podcast tour of Kansas City.  Let's (bleep)ing do this.

Today is the first phone interview of the podcast, with Mike's old high school friend Jered Feldman. Jered and Mike share a few experiences from high school: they met in Coach Campbell's geometry class and also participated in football and NJROTC.  Today, they talk about those experiences and more.

Mike gives his list of Top 10 movies of all time. Warning:  This episode contains an Aristocrats joke.  You have been warned!

Bonus song written in 1999-2000 by Mike.

In celebration of reaching 500 unique downloads, we did a livestream.  Well, here is that livestream's audio: - Mike recites the lyrics of the "Special Happy Birthday" song for his niece - Mike's Top 10 Podcasts (that he hasn't done work on) - Random 12 questions

The drinking episode of the podcast has finally arrived!  (It's also our longest to date.) Mike's guests tonight are Lucas Stoneking and Daniel Rains, both of whom worked with Mike at Silpada Designs.  Moderate consumption of alcohol is involved. Kids, please do not try this at home and/or if you're under 21.

In this post-St. Louis NFL world, Mike is still struggling to even watch football, but did ultimately settle on a new team to pull for - the Arizona Cardinals. Today, we revisit the Winning Side Coaches podcast to when Mike and "Controversy" Keith Lott looked at every single NFL team to see which ones would be a good fit for the long-suffering former St. Louis NFL fan.

Happy Halloween!!! In today's Halloween special, Mike tells the stories of the Ghost of Pawnee and Captain John Dunn.

Today we document a car discussion between Mike and Conrado Salazar en route to a Friday night chess tournament.

Today we talk with Mark Partin, (at the time of this recording) president of Heartland Naturists of Kansas City. WARNING!  This episode contains discussion of the natural human form.  If that offends you, please do not listen to this episode of the podcast.

Happy International Podcast Day! We are kicking off Season 2 of This Podcast Is... Uncalled For with a live streaming AMA. Special thanks to Anita Cordell for the belated birthday greeting.

We end season 1 of This Podcast Is... Uncalled For with five stories that Mike would love to tell but will likely never come up with podcast guests.  These include: the origin of the "best f@#$ing potatoes," what to do if you have a problem with a drill instructor, why Mike will never run for President, the "dude on wet" story, and why Mike is not allowed in the southside of Tulsa.

Today we interview board game designer Adam Sadiq and talk about his game That's a Wrap! The Game of Filmmaking Frenzy, which is (at the time of this podcast) on Kickstarter.

Do you know: ¡Hola! ¿Cómo estás?   How about: こんにちは！ お元気ですか？ Mike does.  Today's episode is a brief exploration into languages, and how being multilingual is a good thing.

Since Mike is in the board gaming hobby, we might as well give you his top 10 list of board games from his modest collection.

Today we talk about independent soccer, the #ProRelForUSA debate, and the best way to make it all happen.  Also known as how Mike came to support a certain local soccer club, with flashbacks to a promotion and relegation discussion on the Winning Side Coaches podcast.

Mike has been a volunteer for the Kansas City Fringe Festival every year since 2011.  Today, we meet a few more of the volunteers that make the KC Fringe Fest possible.

In another edition of the Thoughts subseries, Mike revisits the last time he did a recording under the Sunflower Brew banner - the November 2014 farewell address by Johnson County Democratic Party chair (and first guest on the Sunflower Brew podcast) Kyle Russell.

Mike shares his thoughts on what it means to be an Ex-Mormon (which he is - officially).

In addition to producing and hosting This Podcast Is... Uncalled For, Mike Czerniewski is also a freelance videographer and podcasting consultant.

Ty Gephardt has had a lot of life experiences similar to Mike's - and has helped Mike out on a few occasions.   Among these experiences: interning at KCPT, getting involved in geek culture, and something Mike is ready to come clean about in podcast format.  

Introducing our "Thoughts" episodes - basically solo talks about topics that are not easy to discuss in an interview format, yet are an important part of Mike's life story. Mike was a HUGE St. Louis football fan - until that fateful day in January 2016 when the team was ripped out of town for no good reason.  Thanks to Mike's previous podcast, Winning Side Coaches, we are able to revisit this topi...
