Sweaty Palms

I'm back, baby! Sorry for the unintended hiatus. I wish I had something exciting to blame it on, but truth be told... I'm just lazy. You know who's NOT lazy though? Chloe Cuffel! Chloe is an amazing writer, producer, director, actress, comedian, dog mom, plant mom. You name it! Though this episode was recorded 10 months ago, it feels like it was just yesterday. And lucky for you, because of my 10-month absence... I can now link the short she wrote! (yay) Check out "The Eagles are a Country Music Band" here - https://filmshortage.com/shorts/the-eagles-are-a-country-music-band/ This episode's closing music was written by Drew Eccleston specifically for "Eagles." And don't forget! The first person to text (or whatever you're preferred form of communication is) the character/movie from Drew's quote in the intro wins a Budweiser Chelada with the man himself! Enjoy.

In this week's episode of Sweaty Palms, I sit down with everyone's favorite human being... Daniel Brouns!!! If you listened to my first episode with Kenny Becker then you know what an amazing light Daniel is. He's kind, sweet, genuine, and (turns out) hates canned wine (but I still love him). Best of all -- not only can you listen to his single, "Safe Now" right this very second (by clicking this link -- https://danielleejamesbrouns.bandcamp.com/releases), but he's also on TOUR! So check him out if you're in one of the many areas he's playing -- (@daniel_brouns on insta and all the usual places for dates and locations). You won't regret it! I'll be there (canned wine and all). Cheers!

In this episode, I sit down with the wonderfully mellifluous Aaron Kessinger to discuss the ancient art of karaoke. It gets pretty silly and pretty sweaty. In fact, we actually took this show on the road to Dave's on Broadway in Glendale and belted some classic karaoke jams. Unfortunately, those files were lost in a freak accident... but also... maybe it's for the better.

In this episode of Sweaty Palms, I sit down with the amazingly beautiful and funny Sophia Loomis! Together we dive into what it's like trying to break into comedy and also how to convince your friends that you're actually funny. (Plus what it's like to hold a microphone when your hands are inordinately sweaty. #sweatypalms) You can check out more of her funny shit here:  www.funnyordie.com/sophialoomis www.sophialoomis.com Thank you again to everyone who listened to episode 1! You are all beautiful and amazing and I love you dearly. I hope you enjoy episode 2.

Even though my hands are leaving little droplets of water on my keyboard as I type this, I still couldn't be more excited to welcome my podcast into the world. I'm very grateful to Drew Eccleston for not only helping me edit this first episode but for also creating the most beautiful intro song to ever exist. And to the wonderfully talented and amazing, Chelsea Campbell, for making the most perfect logo. You guys are the best! And now for the first ever episode, I sit down with Kenny Becker of Goon -- check them out on Spotify or if you're in the LA area, this Friday night (3/30) at the Echo. Kenny teaches me what it means to noodle and why you should never give up on your dreams. I'm so grateful for our conversation and I hope you enjoy it, too. Cheers!
