My podcast explores entertainment culture (nerd, pop, ect),self improvement and philosophy with a touch of whimsy and humor.

I found Dan Gelok's Instagram feed when I was researching for my music audition at URI.  Dan is super talented, an amazing mentor, and a great person.  We chat about all sorts of things in this episode.

This was my 10th year in That URI Ram Marching Band.  We moved our practice field.  That definitely caused challenges to the usual schedule of things. 

Sadly it was Leland Brown's last performance as the voice of the Ram Marching Band.  It is going to be sad not hearing his voice during our halftime performances.

Show Notes:

  1. We are all members of the same species
  2. Some more nonsense
  3. Story time with Mary Sue (aka me), it's a brand new story idea based on one tiny scene that popped into my head, you get it raw. Yes I start stories with me and Chris Hardwick but later replace the two of us because why would I have stories about Chris Hardwick!!!!

  1. So long to the Daily Show.  The last week was bitter sweet.
  2. My brother is slowly becoming a nerdist
  3. Speaking of Nerdist, polyamory! "Hound Tall" with Moshe Keche http://nerdist.com/hound-tall-2-polyamory-with-christopher-ryan-nick-kroll-and-nikki-glaser/
  4. It's OK to love Chris Hardwick but if I persued it, then I would be a homeless cat lady.
  5. The Gist with Mike Pesca is awesome.  Go listen to his episode: http://www.slate.com/articles/podcasts/gist/2015/08/the_gist_storytelling_with_matthew_dicks_and_male_vocal_fry.html  I started to write down a small one line about my day that could be a 5 min story.  You should too!

  • I'm without a computer so the episodes will be a bit bare.  I will have the talented Bentley Michaels get the Travis Richey episode sounding great!
  • This episode is dedicated to three people the world lost too soon:
    • Uncle Mike Lesieur age 67
    • Harris Wittels age 30
    • Draven Rodrigues age 17 (Laser Cat Yearbook meme)
  • This episode is a bit dark.  But I hope you find it thoughful and slightly philosophical.

A BIG thanks the Chris Hardwick for having the Nerdist School and Meltdown showroom.  I appologize to Jonah Ray and Kumail Nanjiani.  I was just lowering the bar for my fellow open mic-ers!

Show Notes:

I talk about what Robin William's ment to me.  I also talk about his less popular movies "Popeye", "Hook", "What Dreams May Come", "World's Greatest Dad".  I also talk about how life is sometimes like Nietzsche's eternal return.  I'm not sure I actually said that but it was in my notes.  I was head over heels for a comedian as a child and guess what, it's happened again.  Robin Williams will forever be the standard by which I measure men. 

 

Finally, the world has never or will ever have a friend like you.  I end with his song from Aladin "Friend Like Me."  RIP Robin Williams, I'll always love you.

Did you ever write something and think about how it'll come out. In your head you sound smart and articulate. But then you record it and it's less than planned? That's this podcast. For me....#YesToAllWoman because I felt the need to edit myself. I also felt that I started to sound like I'm whining when I was trying to talk about something important to me. Show notes:

  • LASIK surgery isn't bad
  • Jim Butcher released the latest in the Dresden Files book, Skin Game
  • 2 Nerds 1 Podcast plays a zork game written by the talented Joe Harvey. Tim Church plays along and together they are incredible entertaining.
  • I talk about feminism and misogyny
  • The important points: being inclusive is better than exclusive
  • Shitting on another group doesn't elevate your group
  • Be respectful of one another
  • #YesAllWomen
  • Please support the things I love...oh and review me on itunes?

Show Notes:

  • We are all beautiful: Eva DeVirgilis is a make up artist and actress. She tells how women always apologize for being ugly. Even though she constantly tells many of the women who sit in her chair that they are beautiful, she is equally critical of herself. It's worth the 10 mins to watch! http://spillway.ca/blog/2014/05/14/we-are-all-beautiful/
  • Louie has the most amazing episode about fat girls! http://youtu.be/KFdWcNJ17YY It is so weird hearing the words in my head said out loud by someone else. I love the way the scene breaths. Louis CK really lets his episodes unfold. Nothing ever feels rushed or forced. This monologue is brilliant.
  • Pete Holmes has been killing it this week! Pete "Sherlock" holmes? Genius. Then on Thursday he has this monologue: http://youtu.be/PUeHeLIwd38
  • If you do not like you life, start telling yourself better stories.
