    2018 Holiday Special (feat. Spencer)

    2018 Holiday Special (feat. Spencer)

    This is not a regular episode of The Towel.
    Spencer (Episode 4!) and I sit down and talk a lot of nonsense.
    You're probably better off not listening.
    But I've been told our conversations are good background noise when you're trying to sleep.
    We'll be back next year with actual new episodes!

    "A Divine Moment At Denny's" with Pastor Adam Smith!

    "A Divine Moment At Denny's" with Pastor Adam Smith!

    My guest this week is Pastor Adam Smith from Reality LA in Los Angeles.
    We talk about how he went from (in his words) the "biggest jerk I've ever met" in high school to finding his calling as a Pastor, and the sort of divine moments that can change your life... even when you're just hanging out at Denny's.
    We had a really great conversation, and I'm so glad Adam was willing to talk about his journey.
     
    If you enjoy the show, tell a friend! Or perhaps rate and review us! The feedback is helpful, I promise.
    Or tweet at us! @thetowelpod for all your at-ing needs.

    This week's guest (and third Colin on the show) is Colin Whitman, a reality TV Story Producer.
    We talk about the varied path he's taken over the course of his career so far, how those detours have held him back... but also how they've helped him in his neverending quest to tell stories.

Weirdo Beardo ,

Wow, The Towel!

Dan is a great interviewer. He brings out the introspective, honest part of a person and makes it seem effortless. It’s a nice change of pace if you’re tired of shlock comedy podcasts where the host yuks it up to no end. Dan allows his guests to open up with surprising depth and grace.
