I‘m Don. I am a huge music dork and I love talking to and about musicians and bands. Since 2009, I have had the honor of talking to some of my all-time favorite artists. I cover a lot of genres because, well, I love all kinds of music. Classic Metal, Thrash Metal, Black Metal, Classic Rock, Power Pop, Singer/songwriter, Jazz, and anything else that has made it‘s way into my life. My goal is to deliver interviews in a way that is not just entertaining for the listener but for the artist as well. I try to set a relaxed, ”living room” type of vibe and have a conversation and talk about anything. I like to let the artist steer the ship and that is always a treat for me and I find myself learning new things. I hope you will enjoy my podcast!

I have interviewed musicians of may different genres: pop, alternative, classic rock, psych rock, jazz, blues, etc. I have also interviewed an author, a b-rate horror movie actress, and a tour manager but never a comedian... until now.
One evening while aimlessly scrolling through TikTok after taking my evening edible, I stumbled upon some videos from LA comedian Emily Vokal. Emily is an up and coming comedian and she is definitely on her way up. Her materials is witty, self-deprecating (sometimes we have to make fun of ourselves, I know I do.), and observant of the world around her. Being on her own in LA, working hard to make a mark on the world of stand up comedy, Emily is putting the work into it and it shows.
It was a great time talking with her about her journey as a comedian, mental health in comedy, and other awesome shit. Enjoy this one. I know I did.
