Show Notes
I sat with Chris Robinson of the legendary band, The Black Crowes. We got into everything I love: music, comedy, drugs, touring, weird dreams, and the exact moment he knew he was never doing anything but music. We talked about George Jones, Neil Young, Bruce Springsteen, our shared superpower, encounters with old-school rock heroes and how “She Talks to Angels” was pivotal to my younger days.

I’ve got one of my new favorite bands, The Bends, hanging out in the kitchen… These guys went from LSU frat parties to full blown rock stars by graduation. We talk about writing music, rock influences, and write some pretty awesome, off-the-cuff love songs. I make hot chicken biscuit sandwiches, we drink Garage Beer, spew out Taylor Swift lyrics - and plan out their future millionaire lifestyles. Plus I get a little live show at the end…
Paul Walter Hauser is back at the studio and this dude does it ALL. We talk about his new talk show Boy Talk, stepping into the ring as a professional wrestler, playing some seriously dark characters, and the comedians who shaped his sense of humor. We also get into his love of old-school comedy, getting older, being dads, making mistakes, and why he thinks comedy deserves more attention. Plus, we nerd out over wrestling documentaries, video games, and the genius of Tim and Eric. This one goes from absolutely ridiculous to surprisingly emotional.
The ladies from I Mom So Hard come by and turn my kitchen into group therapy with a guest appearance by LeeAnn. We talk mom bods, raising teenagers, plastic surgery, and the anxiety that shows up when your brain decides nighttime is the perfect time to ruin your life. Plus, I try my hand at Nebraska Runzas with beer cheese and a corn salad – and somehow absolutely crush them. This episode just proves my point that women are the funniest people on the planet.
I finally sit down with one of my all-time favorite rappers, Too $hort. We talk about him learning the record business before he was old enough to drink, selling homemade tapes in Oakland, turning $15K into $60K in a week, why signing with a major label was worth it even if he could’ve made more money independently, hanging with Tupac before he was famous, the stories behind his Too $hort persona, and how “Blow the Whistle” gave an already legendary career another life. We also get into E-40, Snoop, Ice Cube, Mount Westmore, sex, pimping, staying relevant for 40 years, and his new album Sir Too $hort, Vol. 2 (Drink and Smoke).
As one of the BIGGEST KISS fans of all time, I can’t help but fanboy out to Nick Simmons and Evan Stanley about their dads… We talk about what’s it’s really like growing up with Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley, being nepo babies, starting their own bands and why fans apparently forgot how insane rock stars used to dress. I also relive my hilariously terrible first interaction with Gene - and how I eventually got the apology I never thought I needed. And, all while I make coffee-crusted ribeyes with whipped feta and beets.
