For this excursion into something besides movies, in case you didn't know, I once hosted Voices & Visions and I would recruit friend and Austin-based journalist Dan Solomon to go back 20 years to talk about a year in music - an art form that I love every bit much as film. For this summer tradition, my guests and I curate a new list of ten favorite records from a favorite year, playing snippets of certain songs and discussing our feelings about music in general. As of 2021, I decided to include my friend Jason Simpson, also a writer, to join us in this endeavor, he's back to experience the fun as well. As listeners know, I've been going back 30 years to talk about the year in film with Collin Souter and Erik Childress, so I asked Jason and Dan to do the same from now on with records. Hopefully everyone enjoys this discussion about our favorite records from 1994. It was such a blast sharing memories with dear friends from high school as well as getting to hear a lot of incredible music from the mid-90s. Next year, we have a makeup homework assignment: the year 1999, which we missed.  If you want to hear the older episodes of the music retrospective, they are now archived below as well. Thank you so much for listening and much gratitude to Dan & Jay for their insights, opinions and a 30-year plus friendship. Stay tuned for the next official episode when Keith Gordon returns in late July!

Nine years ago, Dolores Lozano claims she was violently assaulted by a Baylor football player and her boyfriend at the time. In 2016 she filed a lawsuit against the university, claiming that – despite having gone to administrators and football program leaders – her alma mater had been negligent in its handling of her reports of domestic violence and, as a result, violated her rights under the Title IX federal civil rights law. On Tuesday, a Waco jury found Baylor liable. It's the only Title IX case to go before a jury and reach this verdict and involved the testimonies of former Baylor head football coach Art Briles and former Baylor athletic director Ian McCaw. The decision comes just weeks after Baylor settled the largest case of the scandal: a 2016 federal lawsuit brought by 15 women who alleged they were sexually assaulted. Now that the trial has wrapped, let's talk with the reporter who has been covering this beat since 2015.Dan Solomon is a senior editor at Texas Monthly, where he has covered topics from the Baylor sexual assault scandal to the gentrification of Austin barbecue to the legacy of Texas outsider artist Daniel Johnston. His reporting has appeared in the New York Times, GQ, Vanity Fair, Wired, Fast Company, Billboard, and Deadspin.Read Dan's reporting on the Baylor sexual assault scandal:A Jury Found Baylor Liable for Failing to Prevent Violence Against a StudentThe Most Puzzling Moments From Art Briles's Testimony in the Baylor Title IX LawsuitSilence at Baylor (from August 2015; co-reported with Jessica Luther)How Baylor Happened (from February 2019; co-reported with Luther)Make sure to join us for Baylor Line Festival, a first-of-its-kind, three-day, action-packed event bringing together important thinkers and big ideas.

Soon enough Bill Ackerman will be bringing us an official director-centric episode soon and I will be discussing another in early July. For this excursion into something besides movies, in case you didn't know, I once hosted called Voices & Visions and I would recruit friend and Austin-based journalist Dan Solomon to go back 20 years to talk about a year in music - an art form that I love every bit much as film.

As of 2021, I decided to include my friend Jason Simpson, also a writer, to join us in this endeavor, he's back to experience the fun as well. As listeners know, I've been going back 30 years to talk about the year in film with Collin Souter and Erik Childress, so I asked Jason and Dan to do the same from now on with records. 1993 was the year I officially started my own band so it's a special discussion for me, in terms of records that had a bigger impact than most. Hearing my number one choice for favorite record of this year changed my life forever. Hopefully everyone enjoys this discussion about our favorite records from 1993, even if there are very few references to films and directors for this bonus episode. It was such a blast sharing memories with dear friends from high school as well as getting to hear a lot of incredible music from the early 90s (Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, The Afghan Whigs, Liz Phair and so much more).

BIO: Dan Solomon is on a mission to help international students and young professionals, especially those in Germany and the Netherlands, gain the right skills to succeed in the job market. STORY: When Dan was studying in Russia, he would receive $500 every month from his scholarship. Dan never invested a single cent of this money for the five years he was in Russia, which regrettably would have grown to a substantial amount had he invested it. LEARNING: Start investing now to gain from compounding interest. Don't spend your dividends or interest; reinvest it.   “Invest, and don't take out your gains.”Dan Solomon  Guest profilehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/dansolomonpc/ (Dan Solomon) has a diverse background in engineering, business, and finance with experience across several industries, including banking, consulting, and chemical. He is on a mission to help international students and young professionals, especially those in Germany and the Netherlands, gain the right skills they need to succeed in the job market. He is a strong believer in taking little steps towards making the world a better place. Worst investment everDan spent five years studying in Russia on a scholarship. For those five years, he would receive $500 per month. Dan was a bit flamboyant and spent all that money on things that didn't really mean anything. He bought stuff he didn't have to buy. Dan regrets never investing any of this money. Lessons learnedStart investing now. You don't need to wait until you have x amount of money in your bank account; it's never going to come. Start now and build that discipline. You need to understand what kind of investment you're getting into. Why should you invest in an index fund or an ETF, or individual stocks? Most importantly, understand https://myworstinvestmentever.com/blog/hard-lesson-about-compounding-could-have-been-better-with-coke/ (the concept of compound interest). Andrew's takeawaysBuild your knowledge base because you will suffer from a lack of knowledge. You will not witness an exponential rise in your investment until about year 20. It is, therefore, essential to start investing now. Don't take out any money you get from your investment to pay bills, instead reinvest it so that you benefit from compounding interest. Actionable adviceStart now. No. 1 goal for the next 12 monthsDan's number one goal for the next 12 months is to build the https://blisscareer.de/ (Bliss Career) platform to a level where it is self-sustaining to help as many people as possible. He also wants to build the discipline to keep pushing his investment plans and make sure that he stays consistent.

A few years back I asked my dear friend and writer/journalist Dan Solomon to join me for a new tradition: going back 20 years to look back at the year in music. Once again we put together our Top Ten Favorite Records from 2001 as well as share some honorable mentions. Joining us in the discussion this time is another wonderful friend that also shares in our unabashed love of music and pop culture, journalist and blogger Jason Simpson. It's been a long time since we all three spoke to one another so this was a real treat and more than just an exercise in nostalgia. Get ready to make some playlists and jot down our recommendations. As always there are sound clips included as well. Grateful to Dan and Jason for joining me and truly hope you all are safe + healthy. Stay tuned for a single in the future featuring my cover of the song that closes this episode since I think it's one of the most beautiful ballads ever written.

No intro / outro this time even if it has been awhile. Just wanted to launch right into the topic at hand because it's a doozy and one I always look forward to (though we missed last year sadly). A few years back I asked dear friend and journalist Dan Solomon to join me for a new tradition: going back 20 years to look back at the year in music that was. We put together our Top Ten Favorite Records of 2000, share some honorable mentions and for this episode, we discuss our thoughts on the new Fiona Apple album, Fetch The Bolt Cutters. Grateful to Dan for joining me again and truly hope you all are safe + healthy. Stay tuned to the very end in which Wilco's very own Jeff Tweedy played my request on Instagram after his wife, Susan, read my comment aloud. http://dansolomon.com/ https://twitter.com/dansolomon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2000_in_music Previous Years / Episodes: https://www.voicesvisions.net/episodes/music1995 https://www.voicesvisions.net/episodes/music1996 https://www.voicesvisions.net/episodes/music1997 https://www.voicesvisions.net/episodes/music1998

Two moms in rural Collin County have come up with an ingenious way to protect doctors and their families from getting sick after long shifts at the hospital. Medical staff don’t just need PPEs right now. They also need RVs. Emily Phillips is married to an ER doctor and got worried that her husband could bring home COVID19 since both she and their 8-year-old son suffer from asthma. So, Emily got on Facebook last week and asked if she could borrow an RV to allow her husband to come home – but still stay outside to prevent any possible exposure. Within six days, Emily’s one Facebook request has turned into an entire Facebook Group with a couple thousand members and RV owners across the country lending their motorhomes to doctors they’ve never even met. Emily Phillips and her new friend, Holly Haggard, joined the Jasons in a lively conversation. Also, in the episode, COVID19 blindsided a lot of businesses in our state. But not the grocer, HEB. In January, the popular Texas supermarket chain started making calls to suppliers and retailers in China to see what kind of impact they were experiencing from the coronavirus. Those phone calls paid off. By March, when cases began surfacing in Texas, HEB was ready. It enacted an emergency plan, raised hourly pay for workers and changed store hours to address the conflict. Dan Solomon, a writer for Texas Monthly, called the Jasons from Austin to share some fascinating details from his magazine story of how HEB planned for the pandemic.More Infos: Rvs 4 MDs Inside the Story of How H-E-B Planned for the Pandemic, Texas Monthly  

Dan Solomon has been the head of Mr. Olympia and was instrumental in turning around the event in 2019. With the 2020 Mr. Olympia full steam ahead, Dan joins the show to talk about the weekend activities and how the world crisis of Coronavirus is impacting our industry.

Talking Olympia Weekend Business with Dan Solomon   In this episode, Matt Weik and Jimmy Mentis sit down with the The post Talking Olympia Weekend Business with Dan Solomon appeared first on Weik Fitness, LLC.

Dan Friedman (Conservative) and Solomon Gibson, III (Democrat) discuss the voter fraud that has emerged in 2 counties in North Carolina; former President (#41) George H.W. Bush (who passed away) & projections for the 2020 Presidential Election.  Our original LIVE recording was lost due to a technical failure. I apologize for the poor quality of this recording, but at least we do have this back up recording of the show.   Dan & Solomon intelligently and respectfully discussed all issues from both political perspectives. We highlighted the unbelievable fraud that has emerged from Bladen & Robeson Counties, North Carolina, reviewing that the state board of elections continues to meet to decide the fate of this congressional race.  The Presidential administration of George H.W. Bush with its dedication and honor that largely went unrecognized in its time was contrasted to our norms today. This lead us to an analysis of the leading contemporary potential candidates for President in 2020.  Dan and Solomon provided a good look at what two ordinary working Americans feel about the Presidential Election coming in 2020 as well as their thoughts on these contemporary issues.

It’s always a wild ride when the doctor is in. Our “series regular” Dan Solomon is BACK, and he’s got songs on songs, AND some medicine for us all. We had a delightful time with this human who should honestly have his own podcast... or talk show... or late night variety show. Listen up for some jokes, some pondering, and we aren’t kidding...some songs. He has a great voice.

Dan Friedman (C) Conservative and Solomon Gibson, III (D) presented a lively, fun, and respectful discussion of current events ranging from political party labeling, The "Silent Sam" Confederate Monument Debate, Local vs. State Control of issues, Voter ID, and their own respective historical analysis of Presidents past. An unexpected analysis of the Presidency and Impeachment of Bill Clinton evolved as both Dan & Solomon discussed the human fallacies of Presidents as men.  Both Solomon & Dan disclosed that they had both voted for George McGovern and talked about their journey's politically since then and why they have the perspectives they presently hold. Dan talked about how good it was to have a cordial conversation yet explorative conversation with someone from a political perspective that he had felt opposed to his own in the past.

John shares clips from interviews he conducted with Shawn Ray, Rich Gaspari, Dan Solomon, Peter McGough, Boyer Coe, John Brown, Dave Mastorakis and Jerry Brainum.

It's been... one year since we did this.  Every year, I make sure to do a retrospective going back 30 years for movies and 20 years for music.  Earlier in February, I had two friends on to discuss our favorite 1988 movies.  This time it's all about records from 1998. A lot of it does stem from my nostalgic tendencies, but it’s also to deconstruct my two favorite art forms to see what holds up, what doesn’t, and how pop culture has changed over a span of a couple decades.  It’s also a chance for you to see where my taste lies, for better or worse, as well as to get to know a close friend of mine. He’s joined me for the past couple of years on Pop Culture Club (which is what this show was called in its inception) and once again, Austin-based journalist Dan Solomon is back to discuss our favorite records from 1998.  We also share memories, talk about the year in general, and have some laughs.  Included are several song clips and hopefully a surprise or two along the way! Thanks as always to Dan for joining me on this adventure through time and space and memory.  This was definitely our best year in review yet when it comes to the favorites we chose and the overall conversation as well.  Hopefully, you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed recording this yearly tradition!  See you next year for our 1999 year in review.

"The Biz" Podcast Ep 5: Dan Solomon by Emergency Contact- A podcast hosted by Amanda Mason and Matt Ketai

It's been awhile since I took the crossover approach for an episode, allowing it to exist for both Director's Club & Voices and Visions.  Since my guests today are both tremendously talented filmmakers with a lot of insights, stories and new projects to promote, I decided to include this in both feeds.  After my introduction to the proceedings, I first speak with writer/director Jonathan Milott who alongside collaborator Cary Murnion have recently made a film called BUSHWICK that couldn't be more timely.  We delve into exactly why that is as well as the history between this team who is also responsible for the indie horror/comedy COOTIES.  P.S They're not brothers. At around the 40 minute mark, I then speak with someone I've known for quite awhile since she also happens to be the wife of one of my closest friends and former guests, Mr. Dan Solomon.  Katherine Craft is an established writer in many forms with a lot of success stories, both as an activist and as a creative artist.  Her latest endeavor involves HBO (yes that HBO) so we discuss the experience surrounding that as well as her IndieGoGo campaign for her personal project CHARLOTTE AND CHARLIE, which I hope you'll contribute to.  Both interviews provide a lot of great commentary on the art of directing, writing, within the film and theater industries, so I am positive you'll get a lot of these talks.  And be sure to follow the work of Katherine linked below!

Jim here everyone!  It's been awhile since I took the crossover approach for an episode, allowing it to exist for both Director's Club & Voices and Visions.  Since my guests today are both tremendously talented filmmakers with a lot of insights, stories and new projects to promote, I decided to include this in both feeds.  After my introduction to the proceedings, I first speak with writer/director Jonathan Milott who alongside collaborator Cary Murnion have recently made a film called BUSHWICK that couldn't be more timely.  We delve into exactly why that is as well as the history between this team who is also responsible for the indie horror/comedy COOTIES.  Even if Skype was not kind to my side of the recording, thankfully Jonathan comes through crystal clear!  BUSHWICK is worth your time and Jonathan shared a lot about the filmmaking process behind his latest action thriller.   P.S  Cary and Jonathan are not brothers. At around the 40 minute mark, I then speak with someone I've known for quite awhile since she also happens to be the wife of one of my closest friends and former guests, Mr. Dan Solomon.  Katherine Craft is an established writer in many forms with a lot of success stories, both as an activist and as a creative artist.  Her latest endeavor involves HBO (yes that HBO) so we discuss the experience surrounding that as well as her IndieGoGo campaign for her personal project CHARLOTTE AND CHARLIE, which I hope you'll contribute to.  Both interviews provide a lot of great commentary on the art of directing, writing, within the film and theater industries, so I am positive you'll get a lot of these talks.  And be sure to follow the work of Katherine linked below!

Every year, I do a retrospective going back either 30 years for movies and 20 years for music.  Earlier in February, I had two friends on to discuss our favorite 1987 movies.  This time it's all about records from 1997. A lot of it does stem from my nostalgic tendencies, but it’s also to deconstruct my two favorite art forms to see what holds up, what doesn’t, and how pop culture has changed over a span of a couple decades.  It’s also a chance for you to see where my taste lies, for better or worse, as well as to get to know a close friend of mine. He’s joined me for the past couple of years on Pop Culture Club (which is what this show was called last year) and once again, Austin-based journalist Dan Solomon is back to discuss our favorite records from 1997.  We also share memories, talk about the year in general, and have some laughs.  Included are several song clips and hopefully a surprise or two along the way!  Thanks as always to Dan for joining me on this adventure through time and space and memory.Jim’s List1.   Radiohead - Ok Computer2.   Portishead - Portishead3.   Yo La Tengo - I Can Hear The Heart Beating As One4.   Elliott Smith - Either/Or5.   Bjork - Homogenic6.   Pavement - Brighten The Corners7.   Helium - The Magic City8.   Ween - The Mollusk9.   Janet Jackson - The Velvet Rope10.  Ben Folds Five - Whatever And Ever Amen Dan’s List1.   Old 97s - Too Far To Care2.   Erykah Badu - Live3.   Radiohead - OK Computer4.   Modest Mouse - The Lonesome Crowded West5.   Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Boatman’s Call6.   The Notorious B.I.G - Life After Death7.   Bob Dylan - Time Out Of Mind8.   Ben Folds Five - Whatever And Ever Amen 9.   Dan Bern - Dan Bern10.  Erykah Badu - BaduizmListen to the episode for more honorable mentions and song clips!

Today we speak with Jessica Luther, author of "Unsportsmanlike Conduct." Jessica Luther is and independent writer and investigative journalist living in Austin, Texas. Her work on sports and culture has appeared in the Texas Observer and the Austin Chronicle, and at Sport Illustrated, Texas Monthly, Vice Sports, Guardian Sport, and Bleacher Report. Luther's work gained national attention in August 2015 when writing for Texas Monthly; she and Dan Solomon broke open the story about a Baylor football player on trial for sexual assault, a case known by only a few in the community and not reported in the media for nearly two years.

RECORDED AS POP CULTURE CLUB:  Another one of my all-time favorite songwriters joins me for a half hour to talk about his career, accomplishments, and the process between composing hits for projects such as That Thing You Do, Music & Lyrics, Josie and The Pussycats and more!  Of course, Adam Schlesinger is also known as half of the songwriting team behind the indelible pop rock band Fountains of Wayne whose biggest hit "Stacy's Mom" was a riff on The Cars, another one of my favorite bands.  But really, they have so many great songs that it's hard to name or include them all.  During the episode, there are snippets of the following: "Hackensack" "She's Got A Problem" "Hate To See You Like This" "Radiation Vibe" "Red Dragon Tattoo" "Prom Theme" "Settle For Me" (from my favorite show on TV, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) "Getting Bi" (Crazy Ex-Girlfriend) "All Kinds Of Time" "That Thing You Do!" "Sink To The Bottom" Huge thanks to both Dan Solomon and publicist Ken Weinstein for getting me in touch with Adam, and be sure to purchase as many songs by this incredible talent as you can!  http://www.fountainsofwayne.com/home/ Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Soundtrack: https://www.amazon.com/Crazy-Ex-Girlfriend-Original-Television-Soundtrack/dp/B01BY3HPKE  

Happy Memorial Day!  For the month of May this year, I have had the pleasure of talking about two of my favorite directors with two of my favorite guests.  One of the reasons that this show exist is due to the inclusion of my former co-host Patrick Ripoll.  He returns to talk about a controversial, innovative filmmaker by the name of Spike Lee, whom has in both of our eyes, made three masterpieces which we talk about at length along with the majority of his filmography. Some documentaries aren't included this time around and we had to skip over a couple of titles and rush through a couple towards the end but this is possibly one of the best conversations we've had to date.  Not only do we talk about Lee's remarkable talent, but important issues raised in a lot of his work and how they've affected us personally.  We also briefly talk about Patrick's upcoming podcast towards the end, and during the introduction, I touch upon previous guest Dan Solomon's achievement alongside Jessica Luther in the world of journalism.  This is a must-hear episode all-around! 00:00 - 08:19 - Introduction 08:20 - 11:34 - Introduction with Patrick 11:35 - 13:30 - Director Song 13:31 - 44:41 - First Experience, She's Gotta Have It, School Daze 44:42 - 01:15:44 - Do The Right Thing, Mo' Better Blues, Jungle Fever 01:15:45 - 01:57:16 - Malcolm X, Crooklyn, Clockers 01:57:17 - 01:57:49 - "He Got Game" - Public Enemy (snippet) 01:57:50 - 02:12:40 - Get On The Bus, 4 Little Girls, He Got Game 02:12:41 - 02:51:39 - Summer Of Sam, Bamboozled, 25th Hour 02:51:40 - 03:24:39 - She Hate Me, Inside Man, Passing Strange, OldBoy, Da Sweet Blood Of Jesus, ChiRaq 03:24:40 - 03:30:11 - Top 5 Spike Lee Films / Outro For the rest of this month, there may one episode or two depending on coordinating schedules (but there will be a bonus episode coming soon too).  The next official episode records in two weeks with Supporting Characters' host Bill Ackerman as we take a look at the legendary Sam Peckinpah.  Until then, please send us an email at directorsclubpodcast@gmail.com and visit the podcast network over at NowPlayingNetwork.net as well as DirectorsClubPodcast.com Thank you so much as always for listening and hope you have a great start to the summer!

RECORDED AS POP CULTURE CLUB:  A special edition of Pop Culture Club that carries on the tradition started last year.  No intro this time, since I wanted to launch right into the conversation as friend/journalist Dan Solomon, and I travel back 20 years to reminiscence about 1996.  We briefly discuss a few autobiographical memories, the year in general, and then we launch into our top ten records of 1996. Just like last time, a lot comes up within the conversation including a lengthy deconstruction of The Afghan Whigs, hip-hop and so much more!  Big thanks to Dan Solomon for spending some time talking music and favorite records, as well as some of his favorite records of this year so far, including a brief review of the new Radiohead towards the end.

RECORDED AS POP CULTURE CLUB:  A special edition of Pop Culture Club begins with a brief monologue about two deaths that occurred on the day this was recorded & edited.  I'm sure I will talk more about them on the next Director-centric episode but I had to mention briefly about the passing of Wes Craven.  Then it's on to a lively discussion with my good friend and writer/journalist Dan Solomon, who has appeared on the show a few times in the past.  This time I wanted to focus entirely on music, my first love.  Since we recently went back in time for the 1985 Year In Movies Retrospective, I wanted to try something similiar but go back twenty years to talk about high school, buying records, guilty pleasures, and of course, a top ten list of our favorite records from 1995.  A lot comes up within the conversation including a lengthy deconstruction of Radiohead and more!  Big thanks to Dan Solomon for spending some time talking music and favorite records, and this could become a yearly tradition.  Thanks everyone for listening.  Sincerely, Nostalgia Freak (A.K.A Jim) Dan's Top Ten 10.

Overview: The GOP honestly doesn’t understand how Medicaid — a health insurance program — works. YET ANOTHER STATE is trying to weasel out of reimbursing Planned Parenthood for services rendered.

Media journalist and friend to the show Dan Solomon returns fresh from SXSW to talk about several movies, TV pilots, and a couple of bands as well. Together we review the new VERONICA MARS movie, while Dan expands on some festival highlights and premieres including FAULTS, SEQUOIA, OBVIOUS CHILD, SILICON VALLEY, CHEF, PENNY DREADFUL, and much more!   We will return to the regular show format in about five days when we cover diretor Alexander Payne alongside guest Frank Kneznic from Film Junk.  Thanks as always for listening!   

Pat Robertson says gays have a ring that will cut you and give you "the stuff". Chief Kessler is at it again. Dan Solomon just doesn't care about anyone that doesn't believe his views and Zimmerman want the court system to pay $300,000 in court fees.

Jim and Patrick reunite alongside guest and friend to the show Dan Solomon, a journalist that has written for a wide variety of news outlets including Austin Chronicle, Texas Observer, and Culture Map.  We decide to talk about a filmmaker whose main strengths rely on screenwriting and characterization for this episode.  Noah Baumbach first came onto the scene in the mid 90s with the cult Gen-X classic KICKING AND SCREAMING.  Then we elaborate more on his even bigger success a decade later with the divorce dramedy THE SQUID AND THE WHALE.  In addition, Jim revisits the incredibly overlooked Billy Wilder satire ACE IN THE HOLE, Dan reviews the highly acclaimed documentary THE IMPOSTER, and Patrick addresses some questions we got from a listener that makes for some fun discussion!In about ten days, we will be joined once again by Phil Noble Jr, to discuss the great William Friedkin! Please be sure to leave us a voicemail to play on the show at 224-366-9528. If you’re a movie blogger/podcaster and would like a guest spot on the show to talk about a filmmaker whose work you admire. Thanks again for listening and be sure to check out our updated upcoming schedule in the sidebar to see which directors we’ll be talking about soon! Questions are always welcome via email: directorsclubpodcast@gmail.com

This week Director’s Club has film buff and hobbyist filmmaker Greg David talking with Patrick about highly influential American-turned-Brit director Richard Lester. The films we focus on capture the many sides of this unique director, from the French new-wave inspired pure joy of A Hard Day’s Night (where the template for the modern music video was born) to the unexpectedly touching and heartfelt Robin and Marian, which simultaneously tells a rousing adventure story while capturing deep feelings of loss and love. In addition, we talk about Nightbreed: The Cabal Cut and some low-budget superhero sequel that a guy named Chris Nolan did. Maybe you heard of it, it came out recently. Next episode we discuss the wit and bile captured in the films of Noah Baumbach with pop culture writer/blogger Dan Solomon. If you liked the show, why not leave us a voicemail at 224-366-9528?
