What's up y'all.

Episode 50. Our season finale. We did 50 episodes, y'all. We did, yeah, we did. Yo, we're about to finish Season 1 and move on to Season 2. Before we talk about how badass Episode 50 was, y'all need to come see me perform some stand up. I have some shows coming up. Two shows:

Wednesday, July 24 at a place called Uncommon Ground in Edgewater at 7pm, 20 bucks.

Thursday, August 1, I'm in a comedy tub show. That's at Chicago Joe's on Western and Irving Park- 8pm. That's a free show, y'all. 

I'll be doing some stand up at both of those. Please come out Wednesday, July 24. Thursday, August 1. 

Now, Episode 50, badass episode. Angie Gaffney was our guest. AngieGaffney.com: Beast when it comes to making movies in Chicago. She's made 17 feature film movies in Chicago, her last ones in the fall raised over a million dollars to make. Angie's killing it. We then talked about how she does raise that kind of chatter. And she's transitioned into a life coach. So she helps people now or she's into helping people transition in a way where they can get their creative dreams fulfilled. How do you do that in a financially stable way? Angie's got some answers. 

As for the episode, it was a tech heavy episode. Is it time to sell your technology stocks? Yo, these tech companies were on Congress- getting grilled. Facebook, are they a monopoly? Congress thinks so. Amazon, monopoly? Congress thinks so. Facebook's Libra cryptocurrency? The Fed ain't gonna let them do that shit. So yeah, we talk all about technology. We answer a bunch of audience questions. It was a great episode.

Come see me perform stand up. 

Sit back, relax and enjoy the episode. 

Peace.
