Who am I?

Veteran Comedian and Podcaster who can make you feel like you're spending time with your favorite Uncle Many times in the past as a comedian, I've had to travel in my car long distances. The only time these trips weren't painful were the times I was able to find an entertaining radio host or engaging talk show. I figured, why just be a listener? Why not create my own and give the same great feeling to others?

My Show

What is my podcast about and/or how does it relate to the playlist topic you chose?

The podcast was created because of my love of storytelling. I love listening to great stories, but I love telling great stories even more!

What is my podcast playlist about?

A great podcast (in my opinion) is a pod that is like a time machine. You enter it and an hour goes by without you noticing it. These podcasts do that for me. I think others will have the same awesome experience.

The podcasts I picked and why

1. Business Wars

Why this podcast?

This is a favorite because of the amazing behind-the-scenes stories of businesses we all know about. But, what don't we know about them and their origins?

Netflix vs. HBO. Nike vs. Adidas. Business is war. Sometimes the prize is your wallet or your attention. Sometimes, it’s just the fun of beating the other guy. The outcome of these battles shapes what we buy and how we live.

Business Wars gives you the unauthorized, real story of what drives these companies and their leaders, inventors, investors and executives to new heights -- or to ruin. Hosted by David Brown, former anchor of Marketplace. From Wondery, the network behind Dirty John and American History Tellers.

5. Malcolm Gladwell, Revisionist History: Special Event

Why this podcast?

A podcast from one of my favorite authors. It's not possible to come away from one of his books or podcast episodes without feeling entertained... and smarter afterward.

New York Times best-selling author Malcolm Gladwell (The Tipping Point, Outliers) talks with Virginia Heffernan about Revisionist History. Produced by Panoply, the podcast network from Slate, the 10-episode narrative podcast series explores events in the past that have been overlooked or misunderstood.
