    ShowTalk with Brandon Mitchell Back From Ukraine

    Combat medic in Ukraine, drove over two land mines and survived, but with permanent damage to his right ear, and cognitive brain damage, Brandon's life before the War was one of adventure and travel in Show Business. Demonstrating products around the world, Brandon with a few others make a living working weekends and long hours at Fairs, Shows and Exhibitions.

    In Toronto for a couple of days, I offered Brandon a place to stay, and a few good home made meals and a chance to catch him up on what's been going on in the Pitch industry for the last couple of years, while he has been offering his services overseas.

    A light and casual conversation between Brandon and myself and I hope you enjoy the stories. Follow me on YouTube at MrDewdad and on Facebook, Larry Dewdad. Have a Great Day!

    Joe Ades - The Gentleman Grafter

    Joe Ades - The Gentleman Grafter

    Joe Ades worked the streets of New York selling a $5 peeler from Switzerland, dodging local police and bylaw officers, and made a tidy little living do so. When Joe did get caught and fined, he looked at the payment as his rent, and continued on. Born in Manchester England, Joe learned his trade from grafters and pitchmen popping up in front of bomb sites, memories of WWII. Joe was one of seven children from a widowed mother, and started working at 15 years old.

    My interview is with Joes, daughter Ruth who was left with a couple of thousand peelers, and set off to sell her Dads stock, and to share with us the experiences and stories she learned from her legendary father. RIP JOE!
