Midwest Legends Episode #1: Charlie Berens Talks Storytelling, Stand-Up & Buttered Donuts

In our first episode, host Russell Nicolet swaps stories with comedian Charlie Berens, with plenty of laughs and “can you believe that?” moments. Russell let us in on a power move he uses during legal depositions, Charlie shares the tale of his grandpa’s wild doctor’s visit, and Russell confesses to the fishing lure injury he was too embarrassed to take to the ER. Get ready for easygoing, unfiltered storytelling that feels like you just pulled up a chair at the local bar with your friends.  Hey there! Midwest Legends is not a show about Paul Bunyan, Babe the Blue Ox, or Sasquatch, but you will hear lots of great stories from the modern-day doers and dreamers leaving their mark on the Midwest. Each episode, one of these folks shares part of their journey with host Russell Nicolet. If you haven’t heard of them before, Midwest Legends is here to introduce you.
