You Have to Meet My Friends is the podcast series where I go live, hit the call button, and find out in real time who's actually a real friend—because they have no idea they're about to be on a podcast. It's unscripted, unpredictable, and built on one simple question: who's going to answer… and what happens when they do?Welcome to the wildest social experiment on my show. No guest prep. No calendar invites. No safety net. Just me, my phone, and a list of people who may or may not pick up. And yeah—sometimes we get skunked. Straight to voicemail. Crickets. Ego check. But when someone answers? That's where the magic lives.These are real conversations with real people, caught in real moments—business builders, dream chasers, old friends, new connections—all dropped into the spotlight with zero warning. What comes out is honesty, humor, perspective, and those “you can't script this” stories that remind us what connection actually feels like.This series is about more than surprise calls—it's about energy. It's about showing up without a script and trusting that something meaningful will meet you on the other side of discomfort. Sometimes it's hilarious. Sometimes it's deep. Every time, it's real.In this episode, you'll experience:The unpredictability of live, unscripted callsAuthentic conversations that cut through the noiseMoments of connection that turn into momentumA reminder that the best things in life don't come scheduledIf you've ever wondered what would happen if you just picked up the phone and leaned into the moment… this is your show.Tap in, subscribe, and turn on notifications—because the next call could be the one that changes everything.

You don’t need a traditional path to build a thriving music career! Just ask Cliff and Susan Prowse, who turned classical piano chops and play-by-ear instincts into a full-blown lifestyle business. Whether you learned to read music first or figured out theory after the fact, what matters is training your ear to hear intervals, stacking up reps, and putting in the practice until harmony feels like second nature. Use your DAW to sharpen your pitch, but don’t psych yourself or your bandmates out: true tone deafness is rare, and confidence is currency on stage. The bottom line: making a real living in music is absolutely possible when you treat your craft like a skill you never stop sharpening. Once you hit the stage, remember that the crowd is the star and you’re the emcee who just happens to sing and play. Take your audience on a journey: open at mid-energy, build it up, let it breathe, then hit them again. Mix genres, swap instruments, toss in some comedy, and never leave dead air between songs; keep every second purposeful. Think of your set like a video game where you’re always leveling up the room. Manage your breaks with music that matches the vibe so the party never stalls. Playing covers isn’t just a gig — it’s a masterclass in entertainment, and entertainment is its own art form.
