This week, we talk about starting the year off, getting on the right track, and we take up for the big guy.  

The Local Bar 102 - In Defense of Santa Claus

The Local Bar is a place to sit back, relax, and join the conversation with some great folks who live just down the block.  Each week, we bring a positive message from people who have amazing stories to share about themselves and the people around them.  Pull up a stool.  First drink is on the house.

I don't often share crazy, obscure, rediculous ghost stories with people, but these are crazy, obscure, rediculous times.   While this deals with things that may or may not really be there, the lesson learned from this certainly exists.  Take some time and hear me out.  And then, follow the instructions at the end.   You'll thank me later.  You'll thank yourself immediately.  

The Local Bar 201 - When She is in the Room

To celebrate the 200th episode of the show, I've decided to turn the microphone inward and have my three favorite people that have ever walked the planet interview me.   Thank you for all the years, the shows, emails, and support.  This has been an unexpected and fantastic journey.   I'm the luckiest guy you know.  

The Local Bar 200 - Chad Alexander

This week we are joined by our good friend Billy Riot (from the podcasts Riot House Podcast, Beauty in the Breakdown) to talk about some of the things you need to check out at St. Pat's Columbia, why being genuine is important, and who exactly is Derrick Poop.  

The Local Bar 199 - Billy Rocks Down To Electric Avenue
