TOTAL SCHMIDT SHOW

Hey, Thanks for listening! Hit me back at this link, or find me on all socials @MrLennySchmidt

Ran into Tony on the Norwegian Getaway. My first ship with the "Howl at the Moon" piano bar in years. If you follow my othe pod "Quaraentine Comedy" you know I'm a huge fan of HTM. Soo much fun on the ship. I saw Tony the first night. I had him on because he's a great HTM performer, but learned a ton more about him. Like, he teaches Improv, he's a juggler, he does live comedy, he also develops musical instruments and tools for special needs and neurodivergent kids. We talk alot about learning levels. It's a great idea that he is currently developing prototypes for. Need to have him on again. There was soo much to talk about.

4TSS176 has Branden / James Music as our guests. Branden James and James Clark makeup Branden James Music. Two amazingingly talented musicians, one fantastic show. A beautiful combination or mash up of Rock/pop/Oprea/Broadway.... presented with just the right touch of humor. This is the type of live show I love to see on ships, and come to expect from celebrity Cruise Lines. They bring in some of the most talented acts I've ever seen. Branden / James is definately one. So glad to see them. Even happier they sat down to do the pod. We did it the last night of the cruise. 

Great chat, wonderful stage show.

Magician John Accardo this week. We worked together on the Celebrity Solstice. Great live show. So much fun to watch. With magicians, so many of them can do similar tricks. It really comes down to HOW you do them. The personal touches you make. Comments, anything that puts your signature on them. Not only does John do that really well, he had a couple of tricks I haven't seen yet. It was a nice surprise. We talk about that, as well as the strong community builder magic can be. Really cool conversation.

Hey! The Ireland episode will come in two parts , sort of.. the first part is a conversation with our tour guide Andrew Appleton. He was our go to guy for 8 days in Ireland. I didn't really understand what his job entailed until I saw it first hand. Had a blast as he showed us Ireland and talked about his history and the country. It really was fantastic. We talk about it all, His career on cruise ships, and his Voiceover career as well. Not an easy job, but he was spot on. 

Part two will be next week and for subscribers at Mrlennyschmidt.com only. It's mostly the video from the entire 8 day trip. As well as Andrew at work. Join MrLennySchmidt.com for the full unedited episode, or watch edited clips @mrlennyschmidt on ther Youtube.

I'm gonna take the opportunity to use Total Schmidt Show (4TSS172) to announce and address the recent changes to @MrLennySchmidt on all ther platforms. You may have noticed the increase in content uploads the last few months. More content, better content..... It's all part of the "Lenny Schmidt Comedy Network" becoming Mr. Lenny Schmidt media. 

Also, it's important to thank and acknowledge Patrick Duffy for all the musical contributions he's made. he and I met YEARS AGO on a Carnival ship. He's a good friend whose been on the show a few times. Patrick puts together all the music an my platforms now. He did the theme to "Total Schmidt Show" back in season 2. Now, his music is being used in all my videos. He can curretly be seen at NY/NY, as well as numerous other piano bars in Vegas and all over the world. 

More Patrick @patrickduffymusic everywhere.

All the way from Philly, comedian Jamal Doman is this weeks guest. We ran into each other on the Carnival Sunrise. We worked together years ago at one of the many Loony Bins in the midwest. Jamal has been around almost as long as I have. He does it all.. clubs, theaters, tours, ships, he has booked rooms in the LA area, and you can see him on season 2 of "Comics Unleashed." We talk about the drive and commitment. He's a hustler, like so many comics are. At least the working ones are. Gotta keep moving, gotta keep hustling. Jamal does. That's why he's always working.

Jaylyn Bishop worked with me on the Carnival Celebration. Jaylyn is one of the many beloved comics on Carnival. Been with them a long time. So cool to see her. I haven't worked with her in YEARS. We used to rotate on the West Coast ships all the time. 

This pod was a blast. We really got into discussing stand-up, development, stage time... Jaylyn is an old pro. She had some great opinions on the business. Honestly, made me look at alot of stuff alot of different ways. She also got to pklug her monthly show at the Icehouse. The August daten is this weekend 8/22. "Home by Nine" go check it out.

I love working with comics that have been around a minute. Always a great talk.

Very lucky to get Leslie McDonel for 4TSS169. Caught up with her on the Celebrity Summit where she rocked out 6 shows this week. Great shows. Love her song selection. A little Bonnie Raitt, a little Pink.... She covers a lot of bases. She leaves here and heads back to Austin TX to perform in "Come from Away." for a 6 week run. She's a busy lady. It was fun to watch her work. 

We talked about her career on and off ships, her travels, all the good stuff. It was a pleasure. Great pod.
