    196: Ben Gleib, stand-up comedian & Young Turks host

    Ben Gleib is among the most accomplished comedians still rising today, and his new special is a must-see! https://youtu.be/zJbQT-ZcPLw  Gleib has pioneered the wildly successful virtual "Nowhere Comedy Club" during Covid, hosted 210 episodes of his Emmy-nominated game show "Idiotest" (which trended on Netflix and is now on Pluto TV), continually co-hosted The Young Turks' Rebel HQ series, and was told by Larry King that he was "exactly the kind of person we need" when he ran for U.S. President in 2020. Ben Gleib has mentored countless comedians you know and love (like Bo Burnham!) and he's just a wonderfully insightful guy. Topics will be time-stamped soon.  The discussion is on video at https://youtu.be/9J40chmXS5Q.  Follow Ben Gleib: Gleib's YouTube Channel: https://youtube.com/bgleib Gleib's Rebel HQ video series: https://bit.ly/3vZVEi4 Gleib's First Hour Special: https://youtu.be/k6yF4t5S0Y8 Gleib's Instagram: https://instagram.com/bengleib Gleib's Twitter: https://twitter.com/bengleib https://BenGleib.com

    194: Sammy Warm Hands, punk/rap musician & podcaster

    Only my late father has impacted my creative journey more than Sam. Whether or not you've heard of Sammy Warm Hands (or his band, Dead F*****g Serious), I doubt there has been any Lane County musician more prolific AND genre-diverse in the past two decades. Gradient fans know he's taken me on tour twice, rapped on my first three projects, and engineered/exec produced my debut album, Ambition.  The discussion is on video at https://youtu.be/vFVHCzuGP30, and the topics are time-stamped there. Please rate/review the podcast, and check out Sammy's website, YouTube, and Spotify(s).  https://take92.com  https://www.youtube.com/c/SammyWarmHands  https://open.spotify.com/artist/4oNJZDoJ2ub2rAM8vPZQcd  https://open.spotify.com/artist/6XQtji16C8xLFRaIsgmqRx

    191: with Tim McCloud, Oregon Governor candidate

    Tim McCloud is running a historic campaign for the Republican nomination for Oregon Governor. Tim has been a father, a businessman, an early childhood educator, and the chair of a City of Albany bike and pedestrian commission. In a crowded field, I was happy to give this thoughtful fella a chance to talk Oregon issues, especially knowing how less-funded candidates can get drowned out. We discuss child abuse in Oregon's legal system (0:38), commutation of sentences (4:15), campaign challenges and barriers (7:55), "people over party" and closed primaries (14:19), Tim's background (21:14), public narrative vs. leader's reality (26:12), policy recognizing people: Tim's critique (30:02), Student Success Act (32:31), Black Lives Matter and policing (40:33), free expression, protest tactics, automobiles (49:58), Tim's campaign tune and jazz music (1:00:01), campaign finance reform (1:04:20), reproductive rights (1:07:46) and healing Oregon's economic brokenness (1:19:43).
