#149 George Brown

I'M A FAN OF

George Brown is a stand-up comic from the Fort Worth, Texas area and one of the youngest voices in the local scene. But don’t let his age fool you into thinking he’s a novelty act, George is putting in the work and building real momentum. With the age gap between us being wider than George’s own age, it was refreshing to gain insight from someone both new to our comedy world and in a completely different stage of life and career. Before heading to Los Angeles to pursue both school and stand-up, he stopped by the studio for a great conversation about comedy, growth, and the unknown of...

#147 Clinton Taylor - Clinton's Kitchen

I'M A FAN OF

What happens when you hit your late 30s, read an inspirational book, and decide it’s finally time to get six-pack abs? Naturally, you start a cooking show on YouTube. Don’t call it a comeback, but Clinton Taylor, one of the very first guests on this podcast (episode 3!), has returned to the creative fold. After stepping away from stand-up comedy, he’s reemerged with a hilariously grounded and refreshingly honest cooking show. Listen to the episode, then go subscribe to Clinton’s Kitchen on YouTube.

#146 J. Isaiah Evans

I'M A FAN OF

I had the usual amount of nerves that come with interviewing someone I’ve never met in person. However, those nerves disappeared the moment J. Isaiah Evans pulled up to the podcast studio in a brown car. The make and model are irrelevant. The important detail is that it was brown. You see, I, Travis Wright, have long wanted to buy a car in a sophisticated and timeless brown hue. Knowing that J. Isaiah is also a man of impeccable style, my nerves vanished. It felt like a sign from the universe that this episode was destined for greatness. J. Isaiah is best known as the frontman of the band 40...

#145 Brandon Lewin - owner of Big Laugh Comedy Club

I'M A FAN OF

Brandon Lewin is the owner of Big Laugh Comedy Club in Fort Worth, TX. In this episode, we dive into his journey through the world of stand-up, from performing on stage to producing shows, and how those experiences shaped his path to opening one of Fort Worth’s newest comedy venues. We talk about the real challenges of launching a club, from managing operations and compensating staff to navigating the dynamics of the local comedy scene. It’s an honest and insightful conversation with someone working to build something meaningful for comics and audiences alike. I'M A FAN OF: Big Laugh...

#144 Bomethius (Jonathan Hodges)

I'M A FAN OF

There was a palpable tension in the room. Jonathan hadn't been on the podcast in a long time. Our last interaction was through a text message where he thanked me for an article I wrote about his previous full album release "Borrowed Time". I thought the article was clever and complementary but, it ultimately said that the music didn't resonate with me. Did the article enrage him? Was he playing the long game? Pretending to be appreciative of the article but secretly waiting until he could come on the pod to confront me? I've never thought of him as a violent man but, he could've been training...

#143 Matt George of The Yes Ma'am Band

I'M A FAN OF

Matt George is the guitarist for The Yes Ma'am band. He is a man with only first names. Even his middle name (which we reveal in this episode) is a first name. In addition to that amazing fact, we found out before starting the interview that we are neighbors and live on the same street. I walk my dog by his house everyday. The universe is weird, man! But seriously, the band is awesome and Matt was a great guy to chat with about many different subjects. So please, check out my neighbor's interview and go check out his band! Enjoy!

#142 Jacob Marshall

I'M A FAN OF

Jacob Marshall is a stand-up comic and show producer in the Dallas/Ft. Worth comedy scene. Hopefully this interview is good but, in truth, it was sabotaged from the beginning. Sadly, only a couple of days before this interview, I went to trim my beard and I had it on the wrong setting. After accidentally taking a large chunk of my beard off my face I had no choice but to shave it all off and regrow it. So through most of the interview I'm just sitting across from Jacob staring at his glorious beard wishing I still had mine to give my jawline the male equivalent of contouring and to hide my...

#141 Chandler Cooper

I'M A FAN OF

Chandler Cooper is a writer, rapper, singer and performer and social media star. Although he is likely not very wealthy, a lazy google search will confirm that he's worth millions of dollars and is the most successful rapper to hail from Cleburne, TX. The second part of that statement is likely true. Shout out to the Burne! During this interview Chandler required multiple bathroom breaks. Did we take a bathroom break together? Yes. Did we take that as an opportunity to sword fight and cross streams? You'll have to listen to the interview to find out. Be sure to check out his latest music video...

#140 Zac Webb

I'M A FAN OF

Zac Webb is a stand-up comic from the Dallas/Ft. Worth metroplex. Yes, we talk about stand-up comedy and all of the usual things but, it should be noted that he has been working out A LOT and getting in shape. So throughout most of this interview I was just in my own head thinking about how I'm fat and need to lose weight. I'm not sure if this inner monologue made the interview better or worse. You'll have to listen to find out. Also, Zac is really funny and you should go watch him live. Enjoy! I'M A FAN OF links: Zac Webb Links: Instagram: Facebook:
