    413 Smart Talk in Amsterdam - Peter the Tattoo Artist

    This episode’s a gem—Peter and comedian Tom Rhodes join forces for a co-episode airing on both their podcasts recorded in Amsterdam! It’s two storytellers swapping tales about travel, comedy, and the chaos of life. Tom reflects on his time hosting a Dutch late-night show (as Kevin Masters, of all names), fumbling through cultural quirks, and falling in love with Amsterdam. Meanwhile, Peter reflects on how seeing Tom take the leap to live abroad inspired his own journey to Amsterdam, turning a pipe dream into a reality. Then there’s his Hooray for Humanity vibe. Even with all the chaos in the world, Tom’s still finding reasons to believe in people. He draws inspiration from Voltaire’s Candide, which is about someone stumbling through the mess of life but holding onto hope. That’s kind of Tom’s whole thing: seeing the mess, laughing at it, and still loving humanity. They dig into: The beauty of just trying to live a chill, happy life no matter where you’re from. The magic of Amsterdam as a tiny village with the energy of a global city. How humor (and tattoos) can cut through cultural walls and bring people together. Humor crosses every border, and travel opens you up to just how similar we all are. Shut-the-heck-up day in Bali? Genius. We should all try it. Tom’s vibe from his solo show Hooray for Humanity shines throughout—hopeful, funny, and unapologetically real. It’s a conversation about finding joy and connection, even when the world’s a mess. If you’re into wild stories, smart humor, and some honest reflection, this one’s for you. Keep an eye out for Tom’s upcoming special The Ripest Zebras and dive into Peter’s work—tattoos, creativity, and all. Two voices, one great conversation.

    412 Smart Talk - Apple Co-Founder Steve Wozniak

    Not since Gutenberg's printing press has one human being's inventions improved the quality of life for people as much as Apple co-founder and principle creator Steve Wozniak.    Fortunately for me the Woz loves jokes, humor and comedy in general so after sending him several heart felt e-mails requesting to chat with him he agreed, so last week while I was performing in San Francisco I drove down to Cupertino to record this conversation while him. This conversation was recorded at the Mandarin Oriental restaurant where Steve asked me to meet him. There is pleasant violin based classic music playing in the background because the owner politely delinked my request to turn off the music.    Steve Wozniak is not only a creative genius who has improved human life more than any other human being in the last 300 years, he also loves and cherishes humor and the story tellers who create the jokes.    He is exciting to talk to because he thinks so fast and can convey complicated information in a very simple way to be understood universally. His genius is not exclusively bound to his inventions that will lead the world to higher plains of consciousness and communications but it is the basic fact that he is a good person who genuinely cares about helping dreamer people like me wherever he can. It is my pleasure to present to you now the one and only Steve Wozniak!   Intro song: Cutting Room (Hot Pants) – Oceanliners Movie clip from YouTube: Her TRAILER 1 (2013) - Joaquin Phoenix, Scarlett Johansson Movie HD Movie clip from YouTube: Klaatu's warning Recorded in Cupertino, CA.

    408 Smart Bestie - The Big Word Show

    Hey everybody, I’m back with my best friend Ashna, and we kick things off with a funny bit about how I’ve been confidently using the word "conversate" for years—only to find out it’s not even a real word.  I just had an incredible week performing at Brad Garrett’s Comedy Club at the MGM. It felt like old times, hanging out with comedians between sets, watching each other perform every night, and laughing our heads off during the day. There’s something about those moments offstage that makes the comedy world feel like a family again. We also get into one of my favorite topics: thrift store treasures. We reminisce about some killer finds over the years, and Ashna expresses her appreciation for my trusty blender that’s still going strong after 30 years. We talk about how much cooler it feels to own something with history. It’s a fun, laid-back episode where we cover everything from comedy and quality vintage gear to the small pleasures in life.   ----   Please share your thrift store treasures on our Patreon page! ----   So kick back, relax, and join us for some laughs and good conversation.
