Seattle After Party

We’ve been on hiatus. We’re not happy it happened, but it did. So here’s a little update and an interview with Dan Teisan of Late September Dogs that happened all the way back in episode 11.

After some holidays and adventures in internet loss, AJ is back on the After Party. There is fun to be had, matches to be made and facts to be delineated from fiction.

AJ's internet was down so Daryl decided to discuss RenCon. Along with that, we've secured a 25% discount for our audience to go to purchase tickets for the RenCon event. Just use the discount code "PARTY"

Episode 113 is another house party with Daryl and AJ. Our alumni are up to quite a bit and we have the upcoming dates. Also, we play a little #SeattleMatchGame and #SeattleFactOrFiction

This week's episode is a plea to Save the Showbox Theater. There are many ways to do that and Daryl discusses them here. Some links mentioned on this episode: https://historicseattle.org/advocacy/save-the-showbox/ https://www.seattlemet.com/articles/2018/8/2/so-how-can-seattle-save-the-showbox

For our one hundred eleventh episode we had on local author and improviser G.G. Silverman as our guest. Her husband was one of the contestants for the Seattle Match Game so it became the Newlywed Match Game. We had fun, as always, with some of the tangents we went on during that. Afterward we discussed which characters are most like her. Whether or not any of her zombie kills represent vengeance fantasies on her part. Also, how much does improv help with the writing process.

A.J. is back with some stories to tell. He may have found a possible guest, or at least a friend with a little celebrity. Along with his stories we discuss upcoming events in Seattle, especially our next live recording July 26th at the Pocket Theater where our guest is G.G. Silverman. Somehow, the morale of this episode became, "If you wanna know who your real friends are, shit your pants." Find out how and why by listening to this week's episode.

Kicking off the post July 4th Summer time with another house party episode. Daryl run's this one solo. We'll get feedback from A.J. on his adventures soon. For the first time every, you are meant to play #SeattleMatchGame at home. Let us know how you fill in the blank on twitter.

Recording on his birthday, AJ came to the show with a bunch of ideas. In an effort to make the House Party a viable format we're trying out a couple new sections here. We have a 1v1 version of match game. We talk current Seattle events. We also play a little Seattle Fact or Fiction. Have a listen and play along with us in this brand new format of the show.

For the After Party's first live recording at the Pocket Theater, Daryl was visited by 3 entities. The ghost of solstice past, present and future. Danual Allen represented the past. Sameer Arshad represented the present. And new to the team, A.J. Muñoz represented the future. Take a listen on our journey to scare Daryl into doing the right thing with the podcast. Actually, I think we scared Danual. Yeah, we definitely broke him while trying to break A.J. in.

They call their music Light Wave Psychotica. If that doesn't give you an idea, picture easy listening for demons. The band is Ben Von Wildenhaus, a musical collective centered around Ben Wildenhaus. A high school friend of Daryl's who never stopped playing music. We talked outside of Darrell's Tavern in Shoreline. It's a little noisy, or maybe that's ambience. Take a listen and you decide.

Here's part 2 of our show dedicated to Crewmates at the Annex Theater. This is the meaty part. We get a no holds barred interview with the director, the writer and 2 cast members. They pull no punches but we also have a lot of laughs. While you're listening you can play the drinking game that came up out of this interview. Whenever Sameer calls the director Faraz instead of Shahbaz, have a drink of your beverage of choice. It's a story of Islamic magical realism and it is coming to the Annex Theater in May. It's Crewmates, written by friend of the show Sameer Arshad. Daryl went to a rehearsal and got to talk with the cast about this show which is 100% POC. It's a show you haven't seen before. A story of angels, Jinn and Asians in love. Go to the Annex Theater and have some fun seeing something new.

It's a house party episode but with the wish of a guest. Daryl discusses Phoenix Jones, Seattle's very own Superhero.

During episode 102, Josh and Jesse of Trust Improv did an example of their show. Daryl played along. Together they created the fake podcast, Pico De Guy Oh - Mexican Food for Men.

Improvisers are great to have on the After Party because it's fun to play along with them. That we did on this episode with Josh Lindgren and Jesse Rogers. During our conversation we actually took a suggestion from our audience and did a few minutes in the same way they do their podcast, which is called Trust Improv.

It's time to get wet and wild with 3 members of the Seattle Mermaid community. We find out what mermaiding is, how each of them got involved and also what other creative activities they all do.

Also enjoy our celebration of hitting a major milestone in independent podcasting.

Jay Smith has been on the After Party before but was there with Late September Dogs. This time he talked with us about his band and his songs that come in the form of the band Double Cross Committee. We went on some great tangents during the match game. He had quite a bit to say about many topics.

Denny, Haley, and Sky from the improv group East Side Story joined us for good times, match game, and a bit of tomfoolery.

Number 95 on our Race to 100 episodes was a show after CSz Seattle practice. We put a mic in the middle of the table and let it record. We did our best to make all the conversations audible. If you are wearing headphones you should be able to understand all the conversations. Let us know if you'd like Red Star Taco bar episodes in the future, especially if we improve the audio. Daryl has some ideas on how to achieve that.

The Fabricated Technobabble universe currently has 2 podcasts and this was a crossover between the Seattle After Party and The Spoilers : Wayne & Daryl. Technically, this is an episode of the After Party, but you'll have to go to The Spoilers site to get the one with curse words.

Improviser Cory Guebels, the producer of Drunk High Comedy shows such as Dubious Advice, joined us right after the latest of his shows. Also, back on the podcast was Ponch Hartley. Daryl hosted, but he was one of the drunk panelists at Cory's show.

They are an improv duo. They are father and son. They are Next Generation Gap. Denny and Carter Atkin rejoin the After Party to discuss what's been going on since we last talked to them.

He recently joined the CSz Seattle roster after moving from California's Bay Area. Drew Simchik has years of improv and theater experience. He brought and idea for a new show called Parallel Universe. With the help of some Seattle Playerz, like panelist Danielle Bortone-Holt, he was able to turn it into a successful show that's coming back in September.

No live events this week so we thought we'd update you on what a few of our alumni are up to in the near future. What's Mandy Price doing with a bunch of alumni, including some of our hosts? What's author Raven Oak doing? Windowpane is in Maryland right now, so we aren't discussing them. Also, what ever happened to Jonathan Tweet? Is he debating someone about something? All those questions and more will be answered in this bite size episode.

Economics podcaster, Stephen Mackey, returns to talk about his new YouTube channel, his segments for African Business Radio and an upcoming interview with someone whose book inspired him in High School.

At the Bibliophilia Storytelling Festival's first night we had an audio drama from our good friends at Sci-Fi Commons/Reality's Edge. The story was called "Drafted" and we thought you might want to be reminded of what a modern audio drama can be. Bibliophilia was directed by our very own, Jekeva Phillips.

Former adult film stars Alia Janine and Sovereign Syre joined us on the After Party before they launch their West Coast tour, Alia & Sovereign Do America. We find out about them and about their comedy. We compare Seattle and Milwaukee serial killers and much more.

Seattle has an amazing 12 pieces Steely Dan cover band called Nearly Dan. We had Jamie Dievieny and Darelle Holden, both vocalists of the band. We talked about their upcoming gig at Jazz Alley and more.

One of our very own hosts is now the guest as we talk with Jekeva Phillips. She talks about Word Lit Zine, Bibliophilia and how stupid book reports are.

This house party episode happened in a car. Because this was recorded the week that Chris Cornell died, Daryl has some slightly tipsy rambling to share with our audience.

In an effort to bring you the After Party weekly, House Parties are back. Some format experiments to start with, let us know what you think.

After our CSz Seattle's latest round of auditions we got quite a few new players. We get to meet several of them and talk about everything but improv (or so it seems).

The official football team of the Seattle After Party, The Seattle Majestics, are back for the 2017 season. They've got some new players and some new stories. Also, they may have had a few drinks before the podcast. Either way, we had a whole lot of fun.

He's been in Seattle for over 20 years and will be moving to LA to chase his dreams. Before he leaves Seattle we get to talk with Ian Schuelke about many of his (mis)adventures here.

This whole episode was about playing Cherry Picked Game's Conspire. We had a 6 player game that told the story of the Disco Cabal trying to keep disco alive.

Donna Prior, founder of Orcacon joined us once again. We talked about #NachosBeerCon, smashing the patriarch, and beer.

Stephen Mackey, comedian and host of the politics and economics podcast "That's All I Have to Say About That" joined us. We got a little political in this one on one interview between Stephen and Daryl. At one point, the tables were turned and Stephen got Daryl to talk about this podcast.

Mike Schubert, host of the Potterless podcast, discussed reading Harry Potter as an adult with no nostalgic baggage.

Voted #3 for best local podcast in the recent Seattle A-List survey, brother and sister Marc and Julie came on to talk about The Station Wagon Podcast.
