She has played at Burning Man, is trained in the classical genre and has written not one, but TWO songs about tuberculosis; Molly Healey is a tour de force of musical talent, and when not playing with her own band, or the Ozark Mtn. Daredevils or putting out albums, she can be found silently composing her next songs. Enjoy an hour of her backstory and some live music as she delves into her writing process, her background and the one thing we both have in common...having both been in high school productions of "West Side Story". She's an incredibly talented and gracious individual and I am grateful she spent some time here at The House Of Distinguished Rogues to let us into her world! Cheers!

What started out as a random date quickly turned into sharing one of the most harrowing tales of survival I've ever heard. Shot seven times and left to die at the hand of her own mother-in-law, Tammy not only lived to tell the tale, she's rebuilt her life and continues to thrive as a mother, professional and powerhouse of resilience in the face of domestic abuse. In light of the heartbreaking headlines recently, a story of survival might just give some hope to those who need to hear it most. Please take a moment to take in this most serious of subjects. Thank you.&nbs

She's hilarious and delivers a mean six-pack of mini-meisters; Kaitlin Oxenreider sat down with me at The House Of Distinguished Rogues for an hour to discuss a wide variety of wild topics, including her obsession with John Goodman, her love of pickles and her role as an owner/manager of Pappo's Pizzeria South here in Springfield. It gets boozy, as I introduce her to my infamous gin & tonics and she gets me to sample some Jagermeister, against my better judgement. Tune in for some laughs, mostly at my expense. Cheers!

In this episode, Ryan, AJ & I delve into 4 beers that couldn't be more dissimilar; Ryan gives you the technical aspects, I give you the everyman perspective. We also wax idiotic about Deviled Eggs as a palate cleanser, the Sugarfoot Incident, some dude named Terry, and whether or not "Auto-Brewery Syndrome" is a real thing. Tune in for a long dive into some pretty nerdy beer stuff. Cheers!

Let's get personal with a conversation with my close friend Katie about relationships, why we look for attention in the wrong places, guys with flatbill hats and goatees and my mild melatonin addiction. Tune in for an hour of some seriously open discussion with few boundaries. Tune in!&nbs

With over 1.6 million followers on Facebook, 712k followers on Instagram and a book that recently debuted #1 on Amazon, Mat Best has amassed an impressive following; he is also the co-founder/co-owner of Leadslingers Whiskey, Article 15 Clothing and Black Rifle Coffee Company and created the movie Range 15. All of this followed his time spent as on several deployments as an Army Ranger and work as a contractor overseas. Also? He's my little brother. Tune in as I take a peek at the man behind the story, a kid with five older brothers who is enjoying the fruits of his time in the service while contributing back to the community in ever more creative ways as a veteran and entrepreneur.&nbs

So, a LOT has been going on in my life, and the podcast has suffered consistency as a result. Today, that changes. In this episode, my good friend Dane from the "It Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time" podcast decided to flip the script and interview me, so that YOU, the listener, might get a better understanding of some of my odd history. It's a long episode, and I hope you stay tuned....there's some funny tales along the way, along with my time in Alaska and a career in the Fire Service. Cheers to a comeback, and I appreciate your patience and kind words....you rock, my friends!

Will Gregory is a friend, fellow firefighter and current Chief in the Navy. He's seen some things along the way, and has a really interesting perspective on today's military; he's also the one who took me to my first MLS game in Kansas City, giving me a chance to experience soccer on a professional level, complete with righteous indignation. Tune in for an hour with a good friend and all-around great guy!

You like The Sports? How about NHL Hockey in particular? Then you're gonna wanna tune in for a conversation with my friend Kevin McCoy as we delve into the 2019 Stanley Cup Finals, Formula 1 racing and Major League Soccer in a long boozy ride. Tune into one of the more informed minds when it comes to all SORTS of aspects to the game, and it's a long one, so buckle up, buttercups!

Once again we're diving in with Ryan Lear for a master class on the subtleties of the world of beer. Today we talk about sours, fruit beers and some of the processes contained therein. It's looking like we're getting our beer nerd on, and while I'm totally confused, I love every minute of the conversation. Cheers, amigos!
