Jakethis of Jake Johannsen

Tom Wilson phones in to save the day after internet snafus destroy a conversation between two lonely men in Canada.  Nigel and I were the lonely men in Canada and Tom Wilson is a friend of mine.  Tom is also an accomplshed actor and a musician and a painter.  Tom wrote a book and has his own podcast called Big Pop Fun.  He tours the Universe as a stand-up comedian and is a happily married father of four.  How does he find the time to talk to me on the phone?  He's my life coach.  It's his job.  Unpaid but still.  Please enjoy Tom.  And as always my whereabouts can be found at jakethis.com.

Nigel Skypes in from far Eastern Cananda and I sit down after a show in Sacramento to talk with comedian John Ross.  He is a funny man with a dark past. Lapsed Christian.  Born addicted to methadone.  He makes that funny onstage and we have some laughs backstage with his girlfriend Nanci and last week's returning guest Joe Klocek.  Here is a link to John's website.  Here is a link to Joe's website. You know I'm at jakethis.com.  I don't think that Nanci has a website. Also Nigel and I discuss the age old dilema of sword or hatchet plus crashing the renaissance fair dressed as robots.

On a recent gig in Sacramento, the State Capitol, I had some fun shows with my friend Joe Klocek.  So now he's on the podcast. You can check out Joe's comedy at his website standupJoe.com.  He's had some bad luck with the ladies and we talk about it.  Joe has never had a massage and he is a full grown California resident.  I think a good massage can really help you get through a tough time.  But I digress... as always.  Check me out at jakethis.com and I will see you at the nightclub.

This week Nigel and I have a chat about a Kyak. I finally get together with Dr. Jim Raines in Sacramento.  Dr. Jim knocks out a theme song with the help of his friend Tom Flemming.  I do my best to get involved with the podcast machine on a roadtrip to Walnut Creek, CA.  Dr. Jim and I discuss his carrer as a musician and psychologist.  Tom helps us understand his life as a musician slash life insurance saleseman.  We drink some beer eat some pizza and have some fun talking about our wives. This time was a good time.  Check Dr. Jim out at http://jimrainesmusic.com and as always my whereabouts are to be found at jakethis.com.  Thank you friends.

My guest this week is Frank Gannon.  He is one of my most interesting friends.  We met when Frank was a segment producer on Late Night which was David Letterman's show on NBC before he moved to CBS.  We talk about his days working for Letterman.  We talk about a previous job he had working for Richard Nixon.  We also discuss bacon and ice cream.  There is something for everyone.  Nigel and I connect on the phone to discuss the possibility of doing the show entirely on the phone.  (Probably not going to happen.)  Check jakethis.com for my whereabouts and click here for a story Frank wrote about Bill Hicks last appearance on Letterman.

Nigel checks in from Canada to fulfill podcast obligations.  We drink some tea and discuss our survival strategies from my house to his mom's house.  At times it may seem like we are on a drug but that is not the case unless my wife and his mom rufied us.  That would be weird to say the least.  I can't remember if I had sex later that night or not though now that I'm thinking about it.  Please enjoy this week's talking and check jakethis.com for my whereabouts.  P.S. It is currently still impossible to dig to China.

I had a chat with my old friend Clark Taylor while I was down in Tampa.  He's the man that married my wife and I.  He can walk the walk and talk the talk.  He can also drink the drink and dance the dance.  He's a man's man who knows what the ladies like.  We covered Burritos to Blowholes.  We had fun.  I hope you like it.  As always check jakethis.com for my whereabouts.  I will see you there.

Two handsome men try to figure some stuff out.  OK, one of the guys is me so there's that but my wife's friends tell her that Nigel is handsome.  One of our biggest chalenges is to figure out how to bring "dial a shot" to the internet in order to videoconference online drinking.  Also discussed are the Olympics , the next Ted Knight, and that woman who washes your hair at the salon (barber shop).  Please listen and see if you can help. Check Jakethis.com for more information about me and my whereabouts.

I have finally reached Nigel on the internet phone.  In this episode we discuss the posibility of going into the drug trade and ideas for reality TV shows.  It's real good and I barely discuss my colon.  Enjoy!

Thanks,

Jake
