Podcast appearances and mentions of jeff libman

In this special “wait, he’s not interviewing a jazz musician” episode, VJC Q&T podcast host Russell Schmidt took the show in a different direction. With a goal of exploring creativity in various fields, and expanding beyond the realm of jazz, he invited comedian Genevieve Rice (https://genevieverice.com/) to share questions and tangents with him. There is certainly much common ground between jazz and comedy: performance aspects, creative development of source material, rhythm and pacing, even improvisation. The wide-ranging discussions in this episode included how a one-time, open mic opportunity grew into a stand-up career for Genevieve, whether or not the writing of a particular joke is ever truly finished, and the impact motherhood has had on her comedy. Learn more about and listen to Genevieve Rice here:https://genevieverice.com/https://twitter.com/genevievericehttp://www.thankyouforbeingapodcast.libsyn.com/https://tastebuddies.libsyn.com/Learn more about some of the artists, programs, and other topics mentioned in the podcast here:Maria Bamford – https://www.mariabamford.com/Mark Cherry – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_CherryAnthony Desamito – http://www.anthonydesamito.com/Craig Ferguson – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_FergusonGilbert Gottfried – https://gilbertgottfried.com/Dana Gould – https://www.danagould.com/Jeff Libman – http://jefflibmanmusic.com/Patton Oswald – http://www.pattonoswalt.com/Paul F.

Jeff Libman and Brad Cole are two marvolous singer/songwriters and Old Town School regulars. Their picking and harmonies are just plain beautiful. They are a perfect example of the creative talent here in Chicago.Enjoy a great show!hereand#39;s some pics from the show.
