In TSS4 we cut right to the chase again. Jorge Solano sits down with us. Jorge is about 106 years-old. He's been a Carnival "Punchliner" favorite from day one! He was also a carnival Cruise Director for some time. In fact, he was the CD on the first ship I ever worked on. The Carnival Glory out of NY back in 2009. Ironically, I ran in to Jorge on the Glory this time around.
This was one of the first gigs back after the restart. Jorge talks with me about being back, the shut down, and how he hasn't been to New Zealand to see his son since the start of the stupid Covid.

Total Schmidt Show (TSS#) - Kiara Taylor
This might be the most in-depth conversation I ever had. Singer/songwriter Kiara Taylor sits down with me. We talked about her style, influences, sexism, racism, police brutality, challenges a you woman faces in life, and on stage, racial profiling…. Everything a white boomer like me never has to deal with. Also, tazers, Melk, and Wankers….. We covered quite a bit.
Kiara is a talented and intelligent young woman. She was a pleasure to talk too… as well as listen too. Powerful and soft voice. Catch up with her here:

TSS48 - Drew Marks
Taped this one at my house during my two week "break" Drew works a lot of @Carnival gigs these days. We actually work the same ship a lot, just not together. I refuse to work with him. We talk about some ship shows, including a weird Christmas cruise he had. For the record, I love the Christmas cruises. Usually a great crowd and week. Not for Drew.
Enjoy.

TSS47 - Johnathan Scott Roth
Johnathan is a singer. More specifically, a baritone. We met on the Sapphire Princess. He was working on the main cast. Saw him e in the big shows. But, he really blew my away in his solo show. The ships cat people in productions, but then "fly-on:" Guest Entertainers to do their own shows. Pretty much what I do. John was just starting to put his own Guest Entertainer show together. He crushed. Kind of a country boy theme. It's a perfect show for US ships out of the south.... which is 90% of the cruise ships. Won't be long before he's working all those ships. It''s a great show.
From New Hampshire, spent some time in NY, Spends a lot of time at the Wohlfahrt Haus Dinner theater in Wytheville, VA.... In fact he'll be there all summer (2023) Playing Johnny Cash. "Million Dollar Quartet" He also makes his own soaps, candles, and colognes.... John is an interesting cat.

Ken Gar was in Vegas playing Brad Garretts Comedy Club. We talked via the intraweb. We discussed how the process of the entertainment business as a whole has changed. Prompting him to consider a move back To Chicago. Creating your own content, making your own name, building brand.... it's not so much about getting the "Deal" anymore. Also found out he was a Chicago Mob buff.
Find him @kengarrwastaken on all platforms. You can check out his Comedy special "American Hero"
