These are getting funner the more we do them so expect a whole lot more of them in the coming months. You can find Sam @bigsamhunter on Instagram for all his upcoming dates and shows. 

This episode is brought to you by Metallica, mushrooms and the good people at Miller Lite. The holy trinity, the three M's. I could say more about it but that's about all you need to know. Sam Hunter is back in all his glory and we're all over the map on this episode. Enjoy episode 16 ya'll, we got more of these coming real real soon!

There was Ike and Tina, then Bobby and Whitney, I now humbly present to you, Chad & Sam and the Temple of the Incel. This is the beginning of something beautiful and I'm pumped to get this first episode deep in your ears. In all seriousness, this is a super fun listen and a coming of age tale. Sam and I talk about growing up in a bunch of different places and what it's like always being the new kid in town. It gets pretty real, but fear not, there's still plenty of dick jokes sprinkled in there. We dig into some comedy talk and talk about being an open mic'r and Sam recently opening for the hilarious Ian Fidance at Creek and the Cave here in Austin. Have a beer, have smoke, have a listen. See ya'll for round two in a few days. 

Enjoy!

The man, the myth, the perfect addition to any meal, Jamie Gravy ladies and gentlemen. Jamie is a Dallas original and an absolute murderer on stage. He's making big moves here in Austin and has been Eddie Griffin's opener for the last few years playing clubs all over the country. We talk relationships, life in Dallas growing up and the mysteries of the female genitalia. Get involved, this episode rules! Mason Smith also joins us again for more color commentary.

This episode is fueled and sponsored by adult ADHD, some new hybrid of Delta 8, Justin said would make me sound smarter and a handful of Miller Lites. Justin is a local comic here in Austin, he's a wild man with a fast mouth and an even faster mustache. We figure out what an NFT is and that we're both old now, but not before we solve the crisis in Ukraine. You're welcome. This one is a helluva a lot of scatter brained fun, it definitely gets weird! Check out Justin on Instagram for his comedy dates @justinessenmacher as well his podcast @justinsgoingthroughit  

We crack open the new soundboard on this episode (bear with me) and have a good laugh with my good friend, comedian and world traveler Matty Stu. We jump from childhood hip hop to Matty's first spot on Kill Tony (which he crushed), Texas BBQ and a whole lot more. Once again we have Mason Smith along for "color commentary" and per the usual, he does not disappoint. Matty brought his giant blanket of a dog Roy over to hang out on this Texas "snow day", we sat down and 2hrs later here we are. It's a fun one, hope you're into it!

You can find Matty @mattystuuu also go check his new showcase with a crazy lineup @monksjazz here in Austin on Sat. March 26th. He also runs a podcast with @joebegleycomedy called Creature of Habit, thats definitely worth a listen!

Ol' Mason Smith can be found @masonesmith on Instagram and has a banger of a podcast @highnoon_pod

We're back baby. The studio is set up and we got so many great episodes on the way, BUT FIRST! We kick things off with the great Mason Smith, host of the kick ass High Noon podcast, a fellow comedian here in Austin and by some crazy twist of fate my roommate here in Texas. We get real weird on this episode, it doesn't disappoint. Welcome back to Cultivator of Weird, it's great to be up and running again. Enjoy the show and check out Mason over @masonesmith and @highnoon_pod

This episode I had the pleasure of sitting down with two incredible artistic collaborators, Sergio Barrrale and Angela China. While everyone was running for the hills when Covid hit, they came together in the studio and created an incredible 15ft long (larger than life) piece of work, portraying the "Frontline Warriors" of NYC on the front lines in hospitals taking it to this wild moment in history head on. We talk about the piece itself, what brought them to this point in their careers and where this painting is headed next!

It was a blast doing this episode in connection with Littlefield venue and I hope you enjoy!

When Covid hit and we were all scrambling to to find our footing, Sergio Barrale and Angela China not only painted an incredible depiction of our our frontline heroes, but have been transiting their 15ft long 7ft tall homage to hospitals that would have them, with the hopes that through this pandemic it will enforce and uplift the spirit of the warriors on the front line of this medical emergency. With family members of their own on the front lines, recognizing the call to action, they spent 16hrs a day painting to create this giant work. The mural is currently traveling throughout NYC hospitals inspiring workers and patients, recently at Maimonides Medical Center in Brooklyn NY. and currently at Long Island Jewish Medical Center.  You can find their work below and support for the painting, all proceeds go to the following groups... The artists do not want any payment for their work. Instead, they are asking people to donate to support medical workers through the website, frontlinewarriors2020.org. All donations will go directly to benefit those who have been hit the hardest by the coronavirus pandemic, through charitable foundations, specifically NYC Health + Hospitals, DonatePPE.org and DirectRelief.org.
