I'm a bit under the weather with a cold, my friends, but I wanted to say hello and not lose touch with you. Also, I've noticed some new creative doors opening and I wanted to discuss. Hope you are well. Let's do this again next week and maybe I won't have tissues stuck up my nose.

138: Go North Old Man
Well, friends the time has come to raise the roof and have some fun. In a surprise turn of events, I find myself having to move to a new location in a new state. Didn't see that one coming. And it doesn't involve the witness protection program. So, this show will be my last for a couple months...

137: Searching for Jesus
Hi my friends. I'm preparing for a possible life change so my schedule my be a bit wonky the next few months. I'll still be communicating though. Bear with me.

With Every Beat of My Heart
It's Valentine's week — and what better time to talk about a broken heart? Specifically, MINE. After months of trying to figure out why my heart rate was slowing down, I finally learned the real cause wasn't medication… it was a heart rhythm issue that required a pacemaker. Yes, I now officially...

132: Better Than You
Speeding closer to Christmas and here I am watching Pandas have sex. Is that wrong? Then why are they showing it on my TV?? We're a couple weeks from Christmas and I'm just not feeling it this year. I'm already planning for next year. I want to talk to you a bit about artist consciousness vs…

131: A Thanksgiving To Not Remember
Hi friends! Hope all is well on this Thanksgiving week. Often the key to being thankful is just learning to navigate through change and come out unscathed. We're all not that lucky. Hope you are one who is. Now go eat lots of food and I'll see you next week.

130: Magic Words
Hiya Outfluencers! Welcome to episode 130 of the show. It's a nice round number and a pretty cool accomplishment. But unfortunately, all I got for you to celebrate is this new episode. It's circular celebration. Let's never speak of it again. There are a couple of words that are magic in making...

We're moving into summer. Keep it hot, y'all.

126: Tribute
This week I've been clicking off chores and breaking eggs. Not necessarily on the same list, mind you. Have you noticed you listen to music differently as you age? In fact, your entire relationship with music changes as you get older. But that doesnt stop tribute bands. They're showing up by the...

On this episode I give a salute, shout out and a round of appreciation to big, burly dudes. Hey, can't a man give another man some attention without being... Oh, shut up. This week I've been a bachelor and have completely ruined the bachelor life for bachelors everywhere. Sorry, guys. There's…

121: Falling Wood
I've been sheltered in place, writing a play. More about that later. But I've also been watching trees fall which is kinda fun. If you aren't watching "The Americas" narrated by Tom Hanks, its quite enjoyable. Give it a spin. Other than that, I've been listening to new music and turning down…

119: Booze Sniffer
What's the deal with the reality show The Baldwins? Are people watching this? Is anyone waiting to find out what secrets are being hidden in Alec Baldwin's immediate family? I have to admit, as a Baldwin, even I really couldn't care less. St. Patrick's Day is happening very soon and it's a great...
-
118: Not Funny
This week I ponder whether things get less funnier as you get older (not talking about this podcast). I try to get into the SNL 50th Anniversary and I wonder if we resist things like spirituality and politics if the ideas dont reinforce what we already think we know. Thanks for dropping by. I'll…

This week, my friends, I say good bye to a long time friend and hello to a short time family member. Life is full of surprises. Hope all is well with you. See you soon.

116: Incensed and Old
Hi, friends welcome to a new Monday episode of the Outta Toon Podcast. How are you? I'm feeling good. Getting back into the swing of things. I've been burning a lot of incense recently.

115: Buffet

Can I See Some ID?
This week I'm getting into some new jazz music, approaching strangers in supermarket parking lots and getting carded for being too old. Is this what the holidays are all about?? It's no wonder the Grinch's heart was two sizes too small. See ya next week friends.

Just Do Something
Hey everyone! How's your holidays so far? Have you made cookies yet? Anyone made potato chips? I tried. Didn't work out the way I had planned though. I wanted to chat a bit about something personal here. Maybe you can relate. Maybe not. But it might be something you are battling too. Also, can…

Finding My Footing
It's the post-election episode and I discuss coping. Surviving. Even thriving, if we dare. How you doing? I'm taking a bit of a social media sabbatical. Backing off the news too. What are your plans for moving through the political fray? Maybe you could become at artist. A guy in Italy just sold...

Too Many Wieners
Welcome to the Outta Toon Podcast my friends! This week, Al Pacino declares there is no afterlife. This, from a man who did two Godfather movies after the original. Can we trust him? I participated in early voting with the rest of the seniors today. We're all in trouble, folks. Atlanta Pride was...

Flood

If You've Seen One Mall...
This week I'm freaking out at the process of ordering from Amazon. Is it better than going to the malls of the 70s and 80s? Well, no, but you take what you get, right? Do you have a favorite dog breed? If youve been listening for awhile, you may know mine so now I need to know yours. Drop me a...

Saved By Magnesium
This week I'm wondering about dating for older people. I don't know why. I'm not needing to date. But I suppose I'm just looking out for the elderly. Where are the best places to date? How are older people even making frends? I want to know this stuff. I've started planning for Halloween, folks....

Java Jive
Getting back into the swing of things this week and looking for a good formula for coffee. Do you have one? Do you have a specific coffee/water ratio for your recipes which you have developed over years of experimenting? If so, feel free to share. It's back to school week so I've been out buying...

The Triumphant Return
Didn't expect a 3 month delay but, hey, we're back! What started as technical problems, turned into existential questioning and doubts. In the end, though, we made it through to a brand new show. Hope it was worth the wait. Let me know if you're still here...

Your Mom's Butt
Greetings Tooners! I'm back from my Minnesota vacation and all primed for a new show. This week I discuss fasting, traveling with dogs, having an Orange Julius at the Mall of America, and being stalked way too many times for an ugly dumb guy. How have you been? Are you getting your house all...

Manly, Yes, But I Like It Too
Hi friends! I'm heading out on vacation tomorrow. Taking our dogs but we're leaving the cats behind. Hope they're going to be okay. I'm a little anxious about it. Someone will be house sitting and checking on them but I'm still stressed about it. Got a lot of things packed up in my travel tote....

Tales From The Butt
I'm starving here. No food for 24 hours. No food or drink for the next several hours. Today is my colonoscopy. So much fun. Looking forward to a beer and fries though. Also, this weekend is the big birthday. Getting old is not too bad. Might as well celebrate it. I'll keep you updated. Thanks for...

Revenge of an Angry God
Today was a total eclipse of the sun (FYI: There is a total eclipse of the sun every single moment in time, depending upon your location...). Consequently, some religious group assumed this would be a good time for god to do its business. So, how are you? Did you survive? Did you get raptured or...

Old and Horny
This week I'm counting down one month until my Bedian Birthday. I need something cool to do for celebration. Any ideas? Contact me if you think of something. I've noticed that getting older doesn't mean you don't appreciate the beauty of the human body. Only problem is, no one wants to know. I…

This Too Shall Pass
A return visit from pain has slowed me down the past few days but at this point everything seems to be looking up. I have new understandings about the body and also about who I am. Okay, yeah, this show is a bit metaphysical. Maybe a little spiritual. Not in a bad way, though. I'm having a cold…
