on this weeks episode i bring on my pal dan st. germain who has an extensive list of credits he would love me to write down but i won't give him the satisfaction - but what i WILL say is he has a great new stand up album out that you should go buy called "no real winners" here. dan's one of my favorite stand ups and we have a good time shootin the shit at his apartment in the east village.

thanks for listenin!

hey gang killer episode this week if i do say so myself! more stories from DC & i tried to eat pussy to fugazi and it went exactly as it sounds.

also i talk to my old pal jon nean, who plays guitar in BLACKLISTED, an american punk rock band from philadelphia, pennsylvania. it's my favorite talk i've had with someone on an episode so far. maybe it's because blacklisted is one of my favorite bands, or maybe because it's just that good of a talk. gotta listen to find out, hombres!

whats up everybody what an episode i have for ya this week! i wanna give a shoutout to DELTA for being pieces of shit, but i also wanna send love to washington, dc for being amazing - i forgot to mention i ate ben's chili, was surprised with a visit to the lincoln memorial at the end of the night and skanked on the stairs of the lincoln memorial to the specials at 3am. it was truly magical. almost as magical as my guest this week - ethan fixell.

ethan is a rad dude who started out in punk/hardcore/metal bands, then got into comedy, then go into writing about beer, then got into being the executive director at Kerrang! magazine. insane! listen to our chat as we solve the world's problems and have fun while doing it.

then i continue my talk with my buddy wes who sings for the lumineers. we dive deep into dealing with everyday distractions. he tells me there's nothin more honest than the truth and we come to the conclusion that we need to be vampires and suck the blood out of the world around us in order to create and live forever through our creations. get into it!

hooooly hell folks i'm tired! this is a fun one but boy could i use a nap! i update ya on my patreon rewards (http://www.patreon.com/ianfidance) and then get right into continuing my talk with the fascinating Luis Calderin, who worked on Bernie Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign. he traveled the country talking to real american's about real america and found that just because you look a certain way, live in a certain area, or check a certain box on a ballot, it doesn't necessarily make you a bad person.

this time we get more into politics, the benefits of a Bernie seed being planted in our national psyche, what we have to do to make things better, and why a positive mental attitude & true untapped empathy will be the answer for our future.

thanks so much for listenin! really appreciate it. come see me live!
