Finally... The season Two Finale...
Started this podcast to talk to other live entertainers about whta they do, why, how, =I love the behind thew scenes stuff. What goes into a show; The prep, the writing, thought process, structure... I kind of geek on on it. No matter what kind of live entertainment you bring to the table. My favorite, of course, is comics. Building an act, a career, the show, writing, dissecting a joke... real professional comedians. Enter Jeff Harms
Jeff is a forty year vet. He's done it all. worked every type of room. Worked every type of show.
Really no better way to end the season.

Total Schmidt Show - 2TSS104 - Jimmy Shubert
This was supposed to be on time. Why? Jimmy Shubert, myself and Rick D'Elia are all in Vegas working at Brad Garretts Comedy Club this week. Tonight through the weekend. So, Jimmys on this week, Rick next week..... Bottom line, you're in Vegas, coem on by and watch three headliners knock it out of the park.
Shubert and I go way back. Thirty years. One of the first guys I met when I was starting out. He was already on the road doing arenas opening for Sam Kinison. We've become great friends over the years. Most of the comics I know really look upm to Jimmy. He is a flat out hustler. Always working. Always has work lined-up. he left Hollywood a few years ago, and didn';t miss a beat. Two more movies coming out the next year, heading out to open for Russell Peters..... I don't know anyone who works harder. Also, great guy and a great friend. Guys serious about his diet, what he eats and when... We cover a little of everything here.

EP 2TSS103 comes in with Jason Andors / El Tiguere Vacano.
Jason is a comice from NY. Buddy of mine for about 10-11 years. Guy makes me laugh my ass off. On and off stage. You'll see here. Whether it's our travels, careers, or his numerous physical ailments.... nobody puts it all in perspective like he does.
El Tiguere Vacano is his alter ego. A Social media superstar in the Dominican. He pops up all over Puerta Plata, New York, anywhere with a strong Dominican presence. He's basically a high energy, Dominican version of Jason... a sensation to all Dominicans with hundreds of thousands of followers.
De nada.

2TSS102 with Will Marfori.
We know it's late, let's just move on.
I've known Will for over ten years. He's easily one of the most intelligetnt comics I've ever known. His live show is a brilliant balance of dick jokes and clever humor. He's literally a genius. Great guy to hang with, spend sometime on a ship of off. He's also a great father of two teenage boys. He's one of those comics that you can see his life as it evolves into his act. He's an inspiring dude.

Ran in to Lucas Bohn on the NCL Bliss. One of my favorite runs through Alaska. Lucas is an old pro. Working stand-up from all sides. 90 minutes of some real solid insight to the business side of things. Talked about his own production company / record label Bojo Entertainment. Balancing the social media posts, live shows, and really promoting yourself as a brand.

Jimmy Denning Rocks! Really, he just rocks. A great musician and powerful vocalist. He's traveled the world and played Vegas with "Tenors of Rock." Currently touring with "Rebel." I caught up with him on the @celebritycruises Reflection by accident.... we were double booked! I win... and my win is your win. Jimmy's got stories man. Like cool "Rock and Roll" stories. Not, "We were bored on the ship so we play Canasta" stories. I'm talking "We got drunk in Germany, stole a golf cart and then we opened for David Hasslehoff" stuff. We talk about it all here. I actually had the pleasure of meeting his parents last year. Worked with his Mom (Susan) who was Cruise Director on board the Celebrity Constellation. That's where I also met his Dad (Jimmy Sr.) who has decades of stage experience under his own belt. An extremely talented family that has seen every side of show business.
Coolest thing about Jimmy is he just embraces it all. He's living the life and he knows he is. He also knows how lucky he is. He's grateful for the ride, lives the moment, and tries to be "present" and take it all in whiule crushing it night after night on stage. I wanna be Jimmy when I grow up.

Magician Austin Brooks and I go back about thirty years. One of my bestfriends I've been dying to get him on the pod. We toured together on the early stand-up circuit. Worked together on numerous projects, shot dozens of of hours on internet content.... almost got our own video content company off the ground, By almost I mean nothing happened of course. Austin has gone on to create and run a very succesful media content (981 Media) on his own and does magic on the side as much as he can. The video takes us four wheeling through parts of Nevada.

Some of the crazy stuff Austin and I shot back in the day.

**TOTAL SCHMIDT SHOW**
Comedian Lenny Schmidt has spent nearly four decades making a living performing live. Comedy clubs, theaters, cruise ships, television, film—and more than a few rooms…
