Blackoutpod with Pete Souvall

Hey everyone. Unfortunately I have decided to call Blackoutpod quits. I explain in full in the episode, but thank you all for listening for the last year! I love you and stay safe.

I hope everyone is well. I try to make this episode light, but I just wanted to detail my experience with covid from when I contracted to my current condition. I think its important for me to give my condition and tell people because I'm sure some people still don't know anyone who's had it. Please everyone be careful. It all happened so quick. Respect this thing, but stay calm. Thanks for listening!

I'm joined this beautiful Sunday by the one and only Kelly Ryan (@thisiskellyryan). Kelly is a fantastic comic and one of the my favorite people to talk to. We discuss her rough times in comparison to this situation, how social media is screwing everyone up, and getting stuck in sexual situations. It's a blast. Please go follow her even though she is off the gram and twitter for a minute. She's one of the most genuine humans I've met and someone I believe has a huge future in entertainment. Thank you all for listening! Stay safe!

Friend of mine, friend of the show, all around famous guy...the one and only Shapel Lacey (@shapellacey)! Shapel is one of my closest friends in comedy and someone I consider to have a huge amount of emotional maturity. In this moment when everyone seems to be losing their minds, I wanted to hear about his process and the tests he's faced in his life and the last 4 months. Please go follow him, and reach out to him. One of the kindest and most talented humans I know. Thanks for listening and stay safe!

Back! I hope everyone is doing well and not losing their minds. I'm joined today by the multi talented Niles Abston (@thenilesabstonshow)! Niles is a comic, filmmaker, cartoon creator, screenwriter...his resume is ridiculous and makes me want to kill myself. On this episode we talk about his previous open mic, race relations and the restructuring and rearranging of racism in our culture, police, comedy, growing up, embarrassments...we do it all. Niles has an album out called "Girls Don't Twerk to Jokes" and I urge you to go follow him on all social media. Just an all around great person, crazy hard worker, and someone destined for greatness. Thanks Niles for joining me, and thank you to everyone for listening.

I'm back in Utah for a while planning my next move and potentially training for hand to hand combat against the newly established authoritarian regime. Anyway. I wanted to talk about two ridiculous police encounters I've had. I only got in to the first time I had a gun drawn on me and should have mentioned the second. I also talk about random stuff and being able to do stand up again. Hope you enjoy! Have a great week.

Back again with the great Neel Ghosh (@neel.ghosh)! Neel is a fantastic comedian who I have  seen perform on several occasions. He's also a very talented musician and I urge you to go follow him! Enjoy the episode and stay safe!

I hope everyone is doing well, staying safe, and keeping your fellow people safe as well! On the podcast today I have Natasha Pearl Hansen (@nphcomedy)! Natasha is a comic, and actress who has been in the game for a long time. She is about to release a special and I'm glad to have had this conversation with her. In this episode we discuss her coming to terms with being self deprecating, police encounters, her upbringing, and an abusive relationship that pushed her to be a comedian. I like Natasha a lot, and I urge you to go follow her and keep an eye out for her special. She's super funny and incredibly hard working. Thanks and everyone STAY SAFE.

I'm back for another check in. I talk about new money in rich areas, food, friendship, comedy, and the fact that I am trying not to explode. I love you guys! Stay safe and alive

The one and only Emily Browning (@emilybrowntown) "sits down" with me to blackout once more! In this episode we dive right in to our dark thoughts surrounding solitary confinement. Then we jump to some sexual stuff, and how to stay creative and virile in the writing game. Emily also gets incredibly vulnerable with a story regarding an assault that happened to her by someone within the comedy community. It is always lovely to talk to her, and I urge you to follow her! Also please like and subscribe, go subscribe to the patreon, and follow me on instagram! Thank you and stay safe.
