Blackoutpod with Pete Souvall

There's not much to say. Its just me! Talking about another time I almost died of drug overdose. But not before I talk about my addiction with food videos, Stick Stickly, and whatever else I don't remember. Have fun! Stay safe!

Will Burkart(@willburkart) is a stand up comic and producer of The Lion's Den Podcast. He has opened for several amazing comedians like Jason Collings, Brent Morin, and Bobby Lee. And under normal circumstances is seen performing all over LA. In this episode we have a discussion about how he is going against the norm and actually succeeding at the moment, which is very hopeful and refreshing to hear. We also talk about growing up ugly and late blooming, stand up, and embarrassing childhood moments. I really enjoy Will, and hope that he continues his path of being a great stand up and staple in comedy. Please go follow him and as always...don't die! Thank you!

Jeff Horste (@jeffhorste) is a Detroit native stand up comic who has appeared on Comedy Central, Kevin Hart Presents, Hart of the City, and The Next Level. In this episode he and I discuss the world of stand up and its many struggles, his growing up in Michigan, and the ridiculous political handling of the current issues we are facing. I had a blast with this conversation. Please go check out Jeff's impressive body of work, he's incredibly funny and is going to continue to grow. I appreciate you listening as always, and stay safe!

Nicole Becannon (@nicolebecannon) is a writer and stand up comic based in LA. Nicole is an incredibly talented joke writer who has been able to showcase her skills on several major television projects including Comedy Central's "Roast Battle". Under normal circumstances she can also be seen performing all over LA. In this episode we discuss her daily routine, bullies in school, how rude kids are, and trying to keep your head above ground when you suffer from depression. This was a great conversation, and Nicole is a super funny person. I loved talking to her and I hope you all follow her, and of course keep staying safe! Thank you for listening!

Cat Wright (@battycatdubs) is a stand up comic and NICU RN who host shows and open mics involved with the DTLA comedy crawl, as well as performs all around LA. Today we had an amazing conversation beginning with a run down of her routine at work pre and during covid, as well as the situation regarding PPE and the lack of it in the beginning. Then we move to her previous addiction to Ambien and its effects on her self esteem and mental health long term. Finally we pepper the episode with some positivity and an outlook that doesn't involve doomsday which is what is important right now. This was a great episode and I hope you all go follow Cat, and stay safe. Don't be stupid. K bye!

I'm back again to hopefully help you laugh and forget about whatever you are doing to try to pass the time! Today I have another amazing guest, the amazing Josh Adam Meyers (@joshadammeyers)!

One of my favorites to date, and I urge you to go follow Josh and go check out his podcast as well as his huge body of work. Thanks for listening and stay safe!

Back again and ready to talk some shit. Today is another day in my parents basement and I hope everyone is having a safe quarantine or working your essential jobs safely. On this episode I'm joined by the multitalented and hilarious Jeremy Scippio (@jeremycomedy)! Jeremy is the co host of Splendid Radio and has a comedy album out called "Happens to the Best of Us.". We take some times to discuss keeping a levelheaded mindset during this unsure period of time, going through difficulties as a child and rising above them, as well as discovering and fostering talent. Jeremy also tells me about his darkest days and most embarrassing moment. Please go follow him and thanks for listening! Stay safe

I'm back and live from my parents house in Utah! Because what's more fun than being a stand up comic who can't do stand up living in their childhood bedroom as an adult? Today I have an amazing guest who is a super funny comic and a former Miss America contestant, the lovely Jacquie Brown (@itsjacquiebrown)! This episode was great. Jacquie is incredibly honest and open about her past traumas, how she got in to comedy, and how she persevered in awful times. This was a great conversation and I was truly grateful for the honesty. Please go follow Jacquie, and I hope you enjoy! Stay safe.

Back again! Today I'm joined by comic, actor, and host of "Live to Tape" podcast Mr. Johnny Pemberton (@johnny_pemberton)! Johnny is a hilarious personality on any medium and I am delighted to have had the opportunity to interview him. Today we discuss comedy and entertainment as a whole, growing up, bowel surgery, and drugs. I love all of Johnny's work and I hope you go follow him as well as check out his podcast, youtube videos, and other work. Stay safe everyone!

Closer to 30 episodes of this! Today I have an amazing comic who has been on The Hollywood Laugh Factory's "Fresh Faces" showcase, Moontower Comedy Festival, and Bridgetower Comedy Festival. He is one of those comics I love and hate to watch because he's so funny but also it makes me realize how unfunny I am. On this episode we go in to heavy discussion about M.K.'s sexuality as a child and adolescent, dark times and retreating from society, and comedy. It was a great talk and I don't know where the time went. M.K. like I said is hilarious, and I encourage you to follow him and if you get a chance to see him in 2035 please do. Thank you and stay safe!
