Evolving Podcasts

NOTE: This was originally recorded as a direct-to-soundcloud thing, but I wanted to get it in iTunes, so I made it the 11th episode of my podcast, though that isn't mentioned during the episode. #late

Check it out! I played through all 10 songs from my new album Hot Take Fight to the Death!! only, get this, on acoustic guitar and IN A BATHROOM. What are you waiting for, you know you want to hear this! 

Hot Take Fight to the Death!! is now available on iTunes, Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, Google Play, Amazon and probably some other places. Thanks for listening!

Hot Take Fight to the Death!! - Live in a Bathroom

- Sorry, no Christmas album update this year (3:20-4:45)
- My 2008 album The Human Endeavor is now on Apple Music, Spotify, etc. (4:46-7:08)
- About The Human Endeavor [EDIT: I say in the podcast we worked on the album in 2007, but it was actually 2008. So sorry!](7:09-11:08)
- “In a Million Years”(11:09-16:41)

The service I use and recommended to independent musicians for getting their music into digital stores is Distrokid. Website: distrokid.com

#13 - November Grab Bag

STAR WARS EPISODE!  

I got together with my cousin Savanna White and her BFF (#confirmed) Alex Encinas in advance of The Last Jedi to talk all things Star Wars. This could be fascinating or so so boring depending on your interest in the topic or excitement about the new movie. Find out our theories, favorite characters and "ships".  And try out a new drinking game: drink every time one of us says "like" (NO DON'T DO IT YOU'LL DIE IN 5 MINUTES!!!). 

We're hoping to do another episode after we've seen the movie. You've been WARNED. 

NOTE: If you like this, download it. I'm not sure how long I can keep up each episode since I'm trying to get new ones out. Hoping to *evolve* this issue soon, but we ain't there yet. 

GO STAR WARS!!!

#14 - Before The Last Jedi

Today's episode is more a psychological obstacle course than a podcast. Host Jeff Grant throws down the gauntlet to see just how much pure, unadulterated boredom his listeners can bear. There is no prize at the end of this test other than the awareness that the people in your life have a TRUE LISTENER in their midst. See how long YOU can survive — THE BORING CHALLENGE!!

#15 - The Boring Challenge

In this episode, Jeff gets on the phone with his old friend Richard Ohlsen to discuss a mutual life-long obsession: Nintendo. The audio is a little wonky but if you can survive it you'll get to hear a couple dudes in their 30s talk about video games (then you can die happy, hopefully). Thanks for listening! Happy New Year!

Episode 16 - Nintendo Babies with Richard Ohlsen (REDO)

#16 - Nintendo Babies with Richard Ohlsen

SOLO POD. I think I've said this about 40 times already, but I've spent the last several years trying to learn how to write screenplays. And I spent last week trying to come up with a new story for the next one and since that's where my mind has been I thought it'd be fun to just talk about the strange, often frustrating process of trying to make up stories. A lotta writer talk on this one.

#17 - Making Up Stories

New episode! I'm grinding my brain trying to figure out what to fill these podcasts with but I remembered I can always fall back on tossing out some new songs. I kind of did a grab bag of a few for a quick episode. Thanks for listening!  

Songs:
1) Poem on Fire (3:27)
2) Tweeting @ Tokyo (7:33)
3) Ghost of a Daisy Wheel (11:00)
4) Puerto Rico is an Island (14:29)
5) Don't Be a Stranger (18:41)

The picture here is actually one of the original covers (and titles) of my most recent album that ended up being called Hot Take Fight to the Death. Apparently iTunes doesn't take pixelated images because it thinks they're low quality, even if it's done for "artistic purposes". At least I think that's what happened. And now I'm sad remembering this because this is a cooler cover than the one I ended up using. Anyway...

#18 - 5 Random New Songs

In this BIG episode, Jeff talks to his mom and grandma at the SAME TIME. Wanna hear people talk about facebook, ordering groceries online, This Is Us (briefly), who the cutest NFL quarterback is, what happened the day JFK was assassinated, what type of TV show our family would be and SO MUCH more? You've come to the right place. Hope you've got nothing going on for the next 100 minutes!!

#19 - Mom & Grandma

This is the first episode of the podcast! This was originally made on Friday, December 6, 2013. I did the initial 9 episodes in one batch over a few months (the 10th was done about a year later, I think), then I took a break until December of 2017. These haven't been available for a while. I wanted to get the original 10 added to the collection so you could see how the show "evolved".

#9 - Learn While Sleeping!

After some time away, Jeff returns to the podcast to read some listener mail and play some songs (his own plus some recent favorites). The original version of this episode was removed from SoundCloud due to copyright infringement, so in this updated version the songs have been taken out and a computer voice says what song was played. Does that make sense?
