I consider how we don't think about our global cohabitation situation enough, which leaves me thinking about past roommates. Some of them had hand grenades. Also, watching the animals around me run so frantically makes me want to stand very still in the tall grass. I promise to elaborate before the end. My new special comes out April 2!

A tea kettle and a bunch of bananas walk into an Indian wedding. There's bound to be a joke in this episode somewhere. I am far too cruel to this fat, Indian rich kid, but I'm working through some things. Also, inflation-proof gorilla food. My new special comes out April 2, right here. There's a sneak peek at the intro in this ep as well. Make sure you're subbed to catch it! The Discord is here.

In this episode I get to some audience questions. I'm also fighting through a case of poison ivy, which distracts me. Mainly though, I am vexed by the insane amount of superhero fodder we've been given the last decade. My special comes out very soon. Make sure you're subbed to catch it!

My guest on this episode is Chingo Bling. Originally a product of the Houston hip-hop scene where he collaboraed with the likes of Paul Wall, Pitbull, & Baby Bash, he pivoted to stand-up and content creation a decade ago. His first special, They Can't Deport Us All, debuted on Netflix. In this episode we talk about writing material for a new tour, and how to get it ready. Also, Chingo has built a team around him he trusts and we talk about that too. It's a good conversation among friends about how to make things that make you happy.

I apply Stoicism to my attempts to stay ahead of the metaphorical avalanche. I've been fired from every job I can remember, and that's taught me to leave myself multiple outs. Also, what lottery tickets and content creation have in common.

My years of railing against new technology has caught up to me and now all of it is fighting back. This leads me to counsel you to purchase the correct jack for a flat tire. We just can't beat the machines without the right tools. Plus, how much of the billion-dollar social media machine goes to the people creating the content? Not as much as you'd think.

My guest on this episode is my good buddy Jerry Wayne Longmire. You might recognize him from your social media feed. He boasts just shy of 900K followers across platforms, and has amassed over one billion views of his Shop Talk and Truck & Boot Astrology videos.  In addition to content creation, JW is a hell of a stand up comedian. I highly recommend his hour-long special, The Reckon Yard:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SFlnkiafWX4 In this episode we talk about his roots, where ideas come from, interacting with fans, and how to make a life you want to live. 

My new stand-up show seems to be exploring the difference in mentality required for survival versus happiness. It's an important distinction. Also, I find myself in a coffee shop and instead of railing against the current state of affairs, I give in. You can only scream into the wind for so long. The Discord is here.

I've given up on creative title writing. This ep has some clips from a recent stand up show. It's new. I don't know where it's going yet. But mainly it is fun. Also, a suggestion to watch three movies that tickle my sci-fi/fantasy nerves. The Discord is here. Sneak in: https://discord.gg/PGArBekm You can join my newsletter here: http://eepurl.com/cVECrL

I wander down the road back to when I quit smoking. But before that, smoking was an identity. I fought an entire city over a smoking ban. This episode is about dropping identities, I think.

Wade is joined by World Traveling Comedian, Slade Ham. The show starts with Wade saying he once wanted to fight a bear (yes, he's aware of how dumb that is). The show continues with the joy of being a creative person. After that, it's the end of the year review. The shows and movies we enjoyed, what we've learned as people, and Slade producing the Andy Huggins comedy special (Early Bird Special) and his comedy specials together (coming soon). The show ends with a game of "Would you work with these comic book characters". #DammitWade

It's a rambling first entry into 2024. I discuss a few mental strategies I've been exercising lately, plus Zume Pizza, an old acquaintance, and getting jumped for a phone. You can join my newsletter here: http://eepurl.com/cVECrL And as always, please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

This is an honest one. I contemplate how I played 2023 and look at where I am headed in 2024. I am pretty brutal with myself, but I think it's all been worth it.  I have a brand new special coming in 2024 and it's really good. I hope you stick around for it!

It the last episode before a brief hiatus. In this ep I strategize on what I would do in a post-apocalyptic world. Hint: it wouldn't be hiding in a room full of canned goods. What are your plans? Could you make it? I also ruminate on wildlife cinematographers and their detached approach to their jobs and relationships, as well as Johnny Rolfe, the most self-reliant man I've never met. I cover a lot of pointless ground in this one. Join me? I have a brand new special coming in 2024. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

What exactly would happen if Taylor Swift got pregnant? I make predictions. Plus, what horror movie could you survive? I talk about my aversion to them and why I think we like them. Plus, Stephen King. I have a brand new special coming in 2024. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

Just let me yell, will ya? I don't know how time works, comedy bookers are on my nerves, these DJs won't shut up, and Slow Luis down at the Combat Kroger is having a day. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

I thought I was going to lament the weather and veer off in a totally different direction. Instead I revisit my first real road gig and a trip through New Mexico. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

After a week of watching people on the internet, my frustrations sort of work their way out of me. Influencers, restaurant reviews, and a mandatory call to pick sides to everything, from cell phones to global conflicts. It's exhausting. I prefer to profess my ignorance in almost every field. I know that among all the other biases I fall prey to, the Dunning-Kruger Effect is one of the biggest. Let's chat. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

This week marked the release of Andy Huggins brand new comedy special, Early Bird Special. How we got there is a story that got it's start over two decades ago, and it is s testament to how doing the right thing can lead to even better things for everyone involved. Also, I visited Bard College in upstate New York to see Neil Gaiman give a series of lectures on writing. I came back inspired. Hopefully it motivates you just a little as well.

This episode is a total potluck laced with a higher than usual amount of blah. I organize my thoughts around a number of things in this one, plus quotes from Robert Greene and and Android tip. I told ya. Random. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

I wrote a piece earlier in the week covering ten things I wish I'd learned sooner when it comes to comedy. I elaborate on all these, but this is the gist of it: 1

I spent the week with friends of mine who are all more talented than me. I hung out with Lou, Brad, & Kevin, and it made me revisit the country music of my past. Hint, there isn't much.   Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

Somehow birds keep finding me. I rescued a dove on my way to the store, which makes me remember the macaw that I kept for a while. Plus, being alone, being on Alone, and people who are afraid of being alone. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

My neighborhood features a Combat Kroger where there's never any real food and everyone thinks everyone is stealing. More posh grocery stores are an entirely different experience. I used to work in a grocery store myself way back in the 90s. I also bring up some television shows that toy with tension to make us avid watchers, namely Alone and Suits.  The latter is particularly good at preying on our attention and love of short, bite-sized story nuggets. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

I picked up some surprise sets this weekend alongside Cristela Alonzo at the Houston Improv. Great crowds, and a nice opportunity to finally run some jokes from the special without any pressure. I also caught Oppenheimer, finally! Christopher Nolan is a fantastic storyteller. I try to stay there, and keep most if what I talk about spoiler free. And like most things do, this sends me down a rabbit hole thinking about how much I truly don't understand about almost everything I encounter.  Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

I lose it fighting a cockroach, who sent red wasp and fire ant minions before it.  Burn the world down, I say. I also revisit a previous line of thinking in order to answer a question, which leads me down a road of vintage video games and what I have learned from them. Please consider telling a friend if you dig the show.

I taped a comedy special this past weekend which, along with a crazy tour schedule this summer, has derailed my weekly schedule. This is a rambly recount of the taping as I get used to flying the Midnight Spaceship on a regular basis again.

I try to recall my worst travel experiences from the last two decades. Believe it or not, it's hard. I don't hang on to a lot of the bad ones, and even the ones I do get overwritten with the good from the trip. Nevertheless, it doesn't always go to plan.  Security in Yemen,  heartbreak in Australia, Afghanistan floods, dead cats in Canada, and a head wound in Romania... let's revisit my past, shall we?

I just got back from touring the new show for two weeks in Canada. I talk about what went wrong at one of the shows, then get sidetracked by my Uber ride home. Momin, my driver, was from Afghanistan. He might have convinced me to permanently add the shemagh (a scarf that is everywhere in the Arab world) to my wardrobe. Also, I walk myself through my strategies around the special, and how important it is to set the stakes and rules in advance, no matter what game you decide to play.

Mortal Kombat characters Wade wants in a DLC, Ghost of Tsushima, Mega Man 2 being a perfect game, Marvel needs to do something new, and more dorkiness with world traveling, Jedi slaying, and comedian Slade Ham. #DammitWade

Strikes are interesting. The writers and actors are all off the clock and I am looking for opportunities. Also, Houston heat sucks and I try out the AeroPress but am not completely convinced.

I explain my strategy for choosing a special over TikTok, plus why I won't get on Threads. And if you're trying to figure out the best way to see the world, might I suggest the right pair of glasses?

The SCOTUS weighs in on websites, I count down the jobs whose purposes I don't understand, and I discuss how we reduce most things in life to key words or ideas, and then never revisit them.

I just got back from Colorado, which included a road trip through Texas and a stop at Palo Duro Canyon State Park, where I got to help a guy light a fire. Also, Russia has an afternoon coup that ended with all the excitement of a baby shower (read: none). Also also, people seem to be making a lot of submarine jokes lately. I bet I have an opinion.

I don't mean to vent, but where else would I do it? Let me get that out of my system and then follow me to my Top 5 Favorite Properties that I would like to see done properly.

People are all worked up over Matt Rife (mainly bad comedians, tbh). Who is he and why am I completely on his side? Also, I dip into my Top 5 movie soundtracks. I bet yours doesn't make the list.

Episode 276: Just Keep Swimming with Slade HamIt was New Year's Eve. A generic poster advertises comedy and music at 8. It's 7:40. It's quiet. Stand-up comedian Slade Ham gets handed the mic from a mysterious showrunner. The curtain goes up at 8, and he sees 500 empty seats except for a dead old woman with an oxygen tank and a guy still vacuuming the room.If a comic performs a set in an empty room, did it really happen? According to Ham, it did, and he's got a paycheck to prove it. Houston-based comic Slade Ham and Stand up Comic Dan Bublitz Jr share many pearls for comics: why it's good to produce shows, staying with your plan, tips for different technologies that save time on promotional materials, focusing your effort on building a body of work before releasing video and audio, and how Slade fought through Covid.

He has also taken his show overseas to the United States military twice a year since 2009. His real passions lie on the road, however – traveling the world and collecting stories. He has free-climbed mountains and has been swimming with sharks. He's wrestled a cheetah and swooped through Turkish valleys in Blackhawk helicopters. He's wandered Australia's outback, been lost in Cambodian jungles, and hiked a good part of the Andes. He is anything but boring.https://www.sladeham.com/https://www.facebook.com/sladeham/https://www.instagram.com/SladeHam/https://twitter.com/SladeHamArt of Bombing:"Nobody Had a Podcast Called The Art of Bombing" Theme by John HultBumpers provided by Joe Nicola MusicWebsite: https://www.artofbombingpod.com/Merch: https://art-of-bombing-pod.creator-spring.com/Buy us a coffee: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/aobpodFB: https://www.facebook.com/artobpodcast/Twitter: @artofbombingpodInstagram: @artofbombingpodTwitch: @artofbombingpodYouTube: Art of Bombing PodcastDan Bublitz Jr: http://www.danbublitz.com/Josh Shirley: http://www.joshshirleycomedy.com
