Podcaster Q&A

Tell us about yourself – what is your background?

I’m a New York based comedian, actor, voice actor, podcast host and screenwriter. Originally from Lakeland, Florida, I moved to NYC in 2009 and my first job was as a page at the Late Show with David Letterman. I have worked in entertainment ever since then. I host a podcast with a friend and fellow Letterman page Greg Burmeister. My voice has been featured in ads for Natty Light, OneWheel and Grubhub. I recently played a Wizard in a car insurance commercial.

Why did you get into podcasting?

I used to host a public access talk show in New York under the same name and just love talking to funny and interesting comedians and artists.

How did the idea for the show come about?

I had always envisioned doing a version of my public access talk show as a podcast and I asked my friend Greg one day if he wanted to do it and he was down so we did it.

What do you hope listeners take from the show?

I just hope they laugh

What's been the biggest challenge for you?

We like to record in person and we don’t live very close to one another but I love Greg’s neighborhood where we record and I also love doing it so the commute doesn’t phase me much

How can your listeners support your show?

Just listen and if you wanna do more than that, rate and review. If you REALLY wanna help, you can also join our patreon.

Any future plans that you'd like to share?

We’re just gonna keep booking great guests and keep having fun making the podcast

Anything else you'd like to share?

I had a cat story go viral once. It’s pretty crazy if you google “Eric Schmidt Cat Story.” It’s also my pinned tweet on Twitter
