Secondhand Talent: The Podcast
12/04/24 • 73 min
Welcome to Season 4, Episode 3, of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"!!! We're so happy we're here and so, so incredibly grateful for all of your love and support along the way. On behalf of all of us here at Secondhand Talent, Steiner & Steener - WE LOVE YOU, FRANDS!!!
This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the Secondhand Talent interview of juggler and soundboard extraordinaire Tim Dingus!
Juggling, Magic and Comedy, the trio of stage and screen that just keeps giving. Tim “Juggling” Dingus has mastered the art of mixing all three, and with some help from friends, he’s showing the world what exactly a juggler is capable of. Spoiler alert: There isn’t much one can do once they’ve spent most of their time and energy learning to juggle, but hey - it’s fun to watch!
Tim is well prepared for roles both on the stage, and behind the curtain. In Tim's show "Tricks for Friends", enter a world of wonder, merriment and laughter where everyone walks away a part of the experience. This is the experience where you are a part of the show! Alternatively, if you’re on the stage, allow Tim to support your needs as an artist. He has worked in a number of historic venues, and for multiple award winning musical groups.
It's time to light the lights, and turn up the band! He is available to either entertain your audience as a magician or juggler, or enhance their entertainment experience as a live sound engineer. That's right, he's no one trick pony!!!

07/15/23 • 20 min
Welcome to Season 1, Episode 15 of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"! This week, we have the distinct pleasure of presenting the second installment of our expansive interview with the artistic explosion that is Caleb Williamson. Feel free to reach out to us at [email protected] or DM us on IG to be on the show!!!
Caleb is a multi-disciplined artist-for-hire hailing from Boston, MA and working from Savannah, GA. Specializing in ink and watercolor illustrations, Caleb’s richly detailed art is inspired by illusory pattern and psychedelia. His work, like many of the acts he has created posters for, is largely improvisational. This spontaneity translates into bold and lively compositions that viewers can easily lose their eyes in. In the first part of the interview, Caleb, Ducky & Steiner delved into the journey from fan to getting involved in the scene to official Secondhand Talent status as an established poster artist.
In the second part of the interview, we get a little deeper into the nitty gritty of what it takes to make it as Secondhand Talent. We can't wait for you to listen to this multi-layered, meaningful and insightful conversation and, of course, what "Secondhand Talent" means. It's a special interview already in the Secondhand Talent canon and we can't wait for y'all to see it!

"Shady Business" wsg Scherre Tucker
Secondhand Talent: The Podcast
12/18/24 • 42 min
Welcome to Season 4, Episode 5, of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"!!! We're so happy we're here and so, so incredibly grateful for all of your love and support along the way. On behalf of all of us here at Secondhand Talent, Steiner & Steener - WE LOVE YOU, FRANDS!!!
This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you our expansive interview with Scherre Tucker, aka Shady Business. "Scherre is an independent merch slanger, bassist, stagehand, and positive vibes technician. Since 2011, she has been involved with live music in one capacity or another. From playing bass in bands local to her beloved Tulsa, to traveling with national acts as a merch seller, to running large stages at various independent festivals, Shady has made a dedicated effort to keep herself surrounded by what makes her happy: music and the joy it brings.
In 2014 she moved to Eureka Springs, AR to assist her mentor, the legendary Ma Dank, with day-to-day tasks. Ma’s legacy continues to be a guiding light in Shady’s work ethic and overall outlook on life. These two share a zest for life that is infectious and rare. Although she passed
away in 2020, Ma travels with Shady to every show she attends.
A brief hiatus from music in 2016 saw Scherre protesting for human and water rights at Standing Rock. Never one to sit idly by, she is always on the move, and always working hard to fiercely defend what she believes in; fairness, equality, and joy.
After a difficult year of loss, life-changing surgery, and introspection in 2020, Shady resolved herself to make the most of every moment, and pursue her passion of travel and music. Since then, she has worked full time selling merch on the road with many bands. Most of these bands
are in the bluegrass/folk/roots scene (which is not the type of music you'll typically hear in her headphones). She enjoys seeing new parts of the country, meeting new people, and sharing in the joy that the ever-present music brings her and others. Shady is as sweet as they come, but furiously protective of her people, and she will cut you.
She is a well-oiled machine that runs on sausage biscuits, menthol cigarettes, and postcard hunting.
Has van. Will travel. Available for hire."
*The above description was written by Shady's dear friend Jarrod Starling, frontman of Carrie Nation And The Speakeasy out of Wichita, KS. Check them out at cnsict.com!!!

"Same Team, No Games" wsg David Kozin
Secondhand Talent: The Podcast
12/11/24 • 75 min
Welcome to Season 4, Episode 4, of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"!!! We're so happy we're here and so, so incredibly grateful for all of your love and support along the way. On behalf of all of us here at Secondhand Talent, Steiner & Steener - WE LOVE YOU, FRANDS!!!
This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you our expansive interview with David Kozin. David is the founder of no sides records no sides records is a Chicago DIY record label started in 1997. Label CEO David Kozin likes refer to it as a "mini-major" label because the vast array of major bands and artists on the roster, coming from many different genres and also many different parts of the United States and abroad. Early releases from the No Sides record label were from Portland Oregon spazz-punk legends Tuman's Water, Detroit Michigan hooch parlor cabaret duo Terror At The Opera, Chicago nu wave of superband Miss High Hell, and Twig Harbor of experimental electronics duo Nautical Almanac.
In 2003, the label released the VGM mixtape "#8" compilation CD, showcasing chiptune and video game music bands and composers from around the world. In 2005, David began full-time studies at Northeastern Illinois University and No Sides records releases started to become more infrequent, less professionally produced, and with many of the regional and national music distributors going out of business in rapid succession at the time, they became much more difficult to obtain outside of Chicago. After years of school, post-grad poverty, near feral insanity, bed bugs, and a book about Ike Turner published in 2018, the label was basically done and what was left was a stone's throw away from the trash heap.
Suddenly, sadly, in January 2022 came the tragic announcement of the death of the frontman of Miss High Heel, and, more famously, To Live And Shave In LA, Tom Smith. When he passed away from cancer, it shook the avant-garde music community and shattered the ice within David and No Sides Records was reborn. By the years end, the label put out 14 releases on cassettes and CDs, which is more releases in one year than any of its 5-year period in its prior history.
Cut to now and the label will be releasing no less than 18 records in 2024, including albums by: one-man-band performer The Lonesome Organist. Chicago Punk legends Silver Reviews, free-jazz saxophonist Paul Flaherty, classical pianist Charles Joseph Smith and dungeon synth slayer Alkilith. No Sides Records can be found online at their Bandcamp link below:

Ryan is a New Hampshire native who currently resides in Portland, OR. His poster art has become a mainstay in the world of Rock poster art and beyond. He has worked with many of today's promoters and up and coming bands as well as a host of concert venues, festivals and alternative businesses. His use of color and his immediately recognizable style are as free and loose as the music it has been created for. "My first love in art was the old psychedelic rock posters, and to actually be doing that now is a dream come true. I listen to the band as I'm creating the images, and just let the feeling of the music come through in the colors and design."
In the second part of the interview, we talk about Ryan's humble beginnings and intro to the art world and transitioning to part of the fabric of the rock poster scene. And, of course, we delve into the meaning of Secondhand Talent. We can't wait for you to listen to this multi-layered, meaningful and insightful conversation and, of course, what "Secondhand Talent" means.

Own'd
Secondhand Talent: The Podcast
04/19/23 • 33 min
Welcome to Season One, Episode Three of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"!!! Oh man, talk about growing pains... Ducky & Steiner got own'd by the learning curve of podcasting and remaining on schedule during an already high-stress week that includes two holidays. Which two? Why, Bicycle Day (4/19 - TODAY!), of course, and 4/20 (we won't insult your intelligence)! In this episode, we discuss what it's like to be on the road, Steiner's wildly mild journey to Fargo, ND, with The Coop, the importance of locally-owned small venues and how they contribute as Secondhand Talent... or do they?
We want to give a special shout out to Martyrs here in Chicago, a staple of the Chicago entertainment scene and one of the great launching pads for Secondhand Talent. They got broken into a couple of weeks ago, which is terrible - please support them by going to see a show at an historic and absolutely wonderful venue, from the door to the floor!
We also want to send our deepest condolences to the Lotus fans, but especially to the Garvey family and the band for the loss of Charley and Chuck Morris. Ducky and Steiner knew Chuck and looked up to him as a master of his craft, and the world was better when he was keeping the beat. You can get some great art and donate to the Morris family by picking up this sweet poster at Conscious Alliance here --https://consciousalliance.org/products/chuck-charley-morris-tribute-2023
CA transforms $1 from each additional donation into 2 meals for whose who need it most. If you can, please support the Morris family and this wonderful charity.
