The Slade Ham Experiment

I try to distill what I have learned in the last year down to 20 minutes or so. If you're trying to get something done, it takes a lot of work. It's also worth it most of the time. I hope some of this helps. Now go get in line for my new special!

Signal / Noise comes out April 2

I consider how we don't think about our global cohabitation situation enough, which leaves me thinking about past roommates. Some of them had hand grenades. Also, watching the animals around me run so frantically makes me want to stand very still in the tall grass. I promise to elaborate before the end.

My new special comes out April 2!

A tea kettle and a bunch of bananas walk into an Indian wedding. There's bound to be a joke in this episode somewhere. I am far too cruel to this fat, Indian rich kid, but I'm working through some things. Also, inflation-proof gorilla food.

My new special comes out April 2, right here. There's a sneak peek at the intro in this ep as well. Make sure you're subbed to catch it!

In this episode I get to some audience questions. I'm also fighting through a case of poison ivy, which distracts me. Mainly though, I am vexed by the insane amount of superhero fodder we've been given the last decade.

My special comes out very soon. Make sure you're subbed to catch it!

My guest on this episode is Chingo Bling. Originally a product of the Houston hip-hop scene where he collaboraed with the likes of Paul Wall, Pitbull, & Baby Bash, he pivoted to stand-up and content creation a decade ago. His first special, They Can't Deport Us All, debuted on Netflix.

In this episode we talk about writing material for a new tour, and how to get it ready. Also, Chingo has built a team around him he trusts and we talk about that too. It's a good conversation among friends about how to make things that make you happy.

I apply Stoicism to my attempts to stay ahead of the metaphorical avalanche. I've been fired from every job I can remember, and that's taught me to leave myself multiple outs. Also, what lottery tickets and content creation have in common.

My years of railing against new technology has caught up to me and now all of it is fighting back. This leads me to counsel you to purchase the correct jack for a flat tire. We just can't beat the machines without the right tools.

Plus, how much of the billion-dollar social media machine goes to the people creating the content? Not as much as you'd think.

My guest on this episode is my good buddy Jerry Wayne Longmire. You might recognize him from your social media feed. He boasts just shy of 900K followers across platforms, and has amassed over one billion views of his Shop Talk and Truck & Boot Astrology videos.

In addition to content creation, JW is a hell of a stand up comedian. I highly recommend his hour-long special, The Reckon Yard: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFlnkiafWX4

In this episode we talk about his roots, where ideas come from, interacting with fans, and how to make a life you want to live.

My new stand-up show seems to be exploring the difference in mentality required for survival versus happiness. It's an important distinction. Also, I find myself in a coffee shop and instead of railing against the current state of affairs, I give in. You can only scream into the wind for so long.

I've given up on creative title writing. This ep has some clips from a recent stand up show. It's new. I don't know where it's going yet. But mainly it is fun. Also, a suggestion to watch three movies that tickle my sci-fi/fantasy nerves.
