Before we get started, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who is supporting the podcast.  I appreciate all of you.  I also wanted to say to anyone that’s not, that they can go fuck themselves.  Especially my friend John Ditore, who refuses to listen.  Fuck you John.  

Today’s guest is one of the most unique and interesting people Fadam has ever met. 

 His name is Lance Neatherlin. Lance is a native of Lake Stevens, WA.  He is professional tattoo artist at the renowned tattoo parlor “Slave to Needle.”  Lance’s area of expertise is in portrait tattoos and black and grey.  In addition to work, he is a member of the heavy metal band “Locistellar.”  In his 20’s, Lance experienced a major bump in the road on his path to professional tattooing.  Growing up in Seattle, he was heavily involved in the grunge scene.  After a handful of wrong turns, Lance found himself on the wrong end of serious drug charges.  He began tattooing while serving a sentence in federal prison.    After his release, Lance dedicated himself to doing what he loves – art and music.  He now lives with his girlfriend LaToya, and their faithful dog Clive.  Outside of work, he enjoys hiking, fine dining, and live music.

Fadam met Andy 6 years ago while working together.  Andy is native of Detroit, Michigan, and a lifelong fan of Michigan sports.  He grew up playing competitive hockey into his late teens.  

Andy experienced a major life change when he was diagnosed with Retinis Pigmentosa.  He had to give up sports and many daily activities like driving.  Andy now commutes to and from work every day with the help of his service dog Rayna.  

Andy is happily married to his beautiful…beautiful wife Tara.  Last summer, I was extremely fortunate to attend their wedding.  The two of them live in Everett with Rayna.

Today’s guest is someone I’ve known my entire life.  He’s been a bad influence on me, and often times a terrible person.  He is my older brother, Kyle.  

Kyle works at an Amazon warehouse in Shakopee, MN.  After barely graduating from Wayzata High School, Kyle pretty much just “kept it real” for about ten years.  Throughout that time, some of you may have seen him at the following prestigious academic institutions:  Normandale Community College, Minnesota School of Business, Santa Monica City College, and Dunwoody technical school.  

Kyle is originally from Burlington, VT.  He’s an avid movie-watcher and a lifelong fan of comedy.  After meeting his wife, and somewhat getting his shit together, he now has two kids and a house in Shakopee, MN.  I will include his address and phone number in the show notes.
