Life is weird.  Might as well have a little fun with it. Riffing with Rick Lozano is a podcast about creativity, music, work, relationships, and the strange, wonderful experience of being human.  Through stories, observations, humor, and the occasional rabbit trail, keynote speaker and songwriter Rick Lozano riffs on what it means to pay attention, stay connected, and not take any of this too seriously. We'll talk about big ideas, everyday moments, and the things that help us feel more alive, more connected, and a little less alone. Because life is serious enough. We might as well have some fun while we're figuring it out.

    Riffing #003 - My Father's Funny Funeral

    At my father’s funeral, there was one thing we absolutely could not lose: the paperwork required to bury his ashes at Fort Sam Houston. So naturally, we lost it. With the funeral procession waiting, motorcycle cops getting impatient, and my family tearing apart the car, panic took over. Then, in the middle of all the chaos, we heard my mom laughing. She had found the paperwork. In an interesting place. This is a story about how pressure can make the obvious invisible—and a question I’ve been asking ever since: What are you sitting on?

    Riffing #002 - The Other Ms. Garcia

    At 25, I did something I swore I would never do: I became a high school teacher. At my old high school. Which meant the people who used to grade me, discipline me, and generally terrify me were suddenly my coworkers. And then I went to happy hour with them. This is a story about discovering that your teachers have secret lives, questionable hobbies, surprising dance moves, and apparently wrestling personas. Turns out teachers are people too. And eventually, somehow, I became one of them.

    Riffing #001 - Why I'm Not a Waiter

    I once cracked a water glass over a customer’s head. Not exactly the kind of thing they teach you in waiter training. What happened next was even more surprising: the guy didn’t kill me, the table somehow had a great time, and I ended up with one of the biggest tips I’d ever gotten. This is a story about screwing up, recovering badly but enthusiastically, and one giant man giving me a line I’ve remembered ever since: “The man that ain’t never done nothing wrong in his life ain’t never done nothing.” Also, for the record, I was not the worst waiter at that restaurant.
