Episode 95: Phone Freak

This week on the podcast, I talk to Doug Burke (Phone Freak), whose classic 90s prank call album “the Telephone Experience” still remains one of my favorites. We talk about meeting online over a quarter of a century alone, sobriety, and why the Jerky Boys movie is still so strangely enduring. A wonderful talk a dear friend, I look forward to learning about Doug’s future forays into standup comedy and podcasting.

We reminisce about first meeting online in 1995, our shared love for cartoons and prank call tapes, and what he’s been up to the last quarter of the century. An awesome talk with a great friend, today’s episode shows that online friendships can be real and long lasting!Special Guest: Phone Freak.
