Big E comedy Venture

hey, Amy and I are back at it with all new episodes following my wacky adventures on Mackinac Island.    

as I wrap up the last of my free episodes for the year i am sad to be home from Mackinac Island but already onto my next venture.  I head out of state for the first time in 12 years to see an out of state NASCAR race and what's the deal with flat earthers?? 

I cannot believe how fast time has flown but here we are.  This is the last episode i will record on Mackinac Island this year.  I wrap up my second amazing season working here but look forward to time home and returning next year. 

as the season starts to wind down it is very bittersweet.  I am happy to get home and see my family but legit already misising the island and excited for next year.  

on this week's episode I sit down and talk to another one of my housemates Cay.  We talk about his love of history,  how a southern kid who never heard of Mackinac Island before went about working as an interpretive solider here and much more.  

in this episode we talk about bike gangs and the mafia, the Lions big win, and how my obsession of this island somehow keeps growing and i can not believe how fast the season is going again.  

in this episode, we talk about my Mackinac Island's got talent performance,  me legit driving the dray down main street and more.  

after 8 years i finally got to live out a dream and go to the music festival Tomorrowland.  It was an absolutely one of the best times I have ever had.  I also went to Paris for the Olympics and Amy and I talk about it all on this weeks episode.  

In this week's episode, I talk about catching covid on my trip.

If you are hearing this sorry Amy is not here but we had some island problems and it's just me today haha hope you enjoy anyway.  I talk about finally moving back up to Mackinac Island and how excited I am for the new year.   

this week's episode is a sample segment from the Patreon exclusive part two of my interview with my mom talking about growing up owning a video store. 

It seems like it has been forever but my partner in crime and co-host Amy is back at it with me. We talk about our time off, the new Patreon, and plans for the new season!

I finally sit down and talk to my mom about the sometimes hinted at but rarely  talked about time when my family owned a small video store.

A new season comes with a new name and a new logo.  I decided to do something very different for the first episode of the new show and have a special guest on to talk about a  wild life adventure of his own.  I open the season by interviewing my dad about a time in his younger days when he hitchhiked out to Las Vegas to work during his senior year of high school.  I have always been interested but never delved too much into it and this seemed like the perfect time.  

noooo if you do read the episode descriptions this will not be the last episode just the last one under the old name haha just wanted to update the future and can not wait for season 3 of the wellll you'll see ha

I have missed doing the podcast and can not wait to come back in March for all new episodes.  Hope everyone has had a great holiday season  and thanks so much for all of your support over the years.   2024 anddd 2025 are gonna be the biggest yet i think though for the Big E Comedy Venture podcast.
