Oops I Missed Church

This conversation was recorded on August 27th, 2024. I first met Tim in Southtown, San Antonio and I've wanted to have him as a guest since 2020. He has a unique experience with religion and I'm so grateful he was willing to share his story. He also helps host and produce two of his own podcasts, Plussin' and Cussin' and Shifties With Swifties. I am so glad we were finally able to sit down together! Thank you for listening!

This conversation was recorded on August 8th, 2024. I met Chase at his most recent birthday party and he is a jovial and life-giving lawyer, as well as a pinball enthusiast. We had a lovely time sharing stories and experiences and I was inspired by his desire to learn.

Here is his official work bio:

Chase Hardy is a Texan through and through.

Chase understands that a journey through our judicial system can be intimidating. The fear of the unknown can creep into every crevice of a person’s life. This is why Chase has dedicated his life to understanding the intricate and nuanced workings of our judicial system. A continual thirst for knowledge and years of traditional schooling has crafted Chase into a truly zealous advocate for everyone he represents. He believes deeply in the wisdom of the jury and is proud to take a case to verdict.

A San Antonio Native, Chase began his primary education in the community of Castle Hills. He studied Finance at Baylor University in Waco, Texas where he was heavily involved in student life. Chase stayed in Waco for his legal studies and attended Baylor University School of Law. Chase contributed to the law school’s advocacy programs by competing on multiple Mock Trial and Moot Court teams in competitions across the nation.

As a law student, Chase spent his summers clerking for two prominent San Antonio Plaintiff’s and Defense firms and had the honor of working with Justice Patricia O Alvarez of the Fourth Court of Appeals. After receiving his provisional license Chase began practicing law at the age of 23. By the time he turned 25 Chase had successfully first-chaired a civil trial to verdict. Chase was hired as an Associate Attorney with GRIFFIN PURNELL LLC in 2021.

While outside of the courtroom, Chase enjoys working on his family ranch in Boerne, Texas.

This conversation was recorded on July 12th, 2024. I was able to share this special conversation with my dear brother in law, Rémi! Rémi is from France and we have officially been family since July of last year. He is wildly generous and kind and I am so glad he joined me!

What a gift to have gained him as a brother and to have had him as my guest on the show! We cover a wide variety of topics and I hope you enjoy listening.

This conversation was recorded on June 13th, 2024. My wife and I met William and his wife at a garage sale they were hosting just up our street. They were so very kind and invited us to join the neighborhood association meeting. William is a passionate about history and politics and I had a wonderful time getting to know him. He has a book being released later this month and I hope to have him on again to discuss the book in more depth. Enjoy!

This is the fourth and final conversation recorded on May 30th, 2024, outside of Tandem coffee shop.

Clifton is a local comedian, health care advocate, wedding officiant, and master of ceremonies. He is the founder of the Tandem open mic night and I'm so grateful for his desire to bring people together and create places of community. We had an excellent conversation and I'm excited to have more with him and all the comedians in town! Enjoy!

This is the third conversation recorded on May 30th, 2024, outside of Tandem. I was unable to watch Jordan's set so I assumed she was a comedian but she was actually the feature act and she sang some songs. She is currently studying acting and I'm excited to see where she goes! Enjoy!

This conversation is two of four recorded on May 30th, 2024 outside of Tandem coffee shop in San Antonio.

Joseph is a San Antonio comedian I met through attending various comedy nights. He is originally from Mexico and I'm so glad we got a chance to sit down for awhile. All of these conversations are shorter than I prefer but enjoyable nonetheless. Enjoy!

This conversation is one of four recorded on May 30th, 2024, outside of Tandem coffee shop in San Antonio. Every Thursday night they host an open mic comedy night. Elliott is a local comedian and camera man in San Antonio. I met Elliott through my good friend Will Chappell last year. We were only able to sit down for one segment of conversation and I hope we can talk more soon. Enjoy!

We're back!

Ian Fucich is a new friend in San Antonio and our first guest since my return to the United States. I met Ian through my good friend Will at a comedy open mic. He is a carpenter and we quickly connected over our common interests in comedy and faith. I am so grateful he was willing to join me and I'm excited to share part of his story!

Enjoy!
