Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 32:22 — 59.3MB) | Embed

Ooof, sorry for the delay on this one folks. I took a little break due to the world going wonky. I had planned to get going after a couple weeks, but then was just having trouble getting motivated. I mean does anyone have to explain themselves in these times? Great time to not have it together, hahaha, can’t blame anyone for anything. I mean I guess we’re all processing this differently and experiencing things we’ve never experienced before and trying to figure out what’s what and I’m not judging anyone for how they are handling it. For me, I took a little time to reflect, did a few new things and now we’re back with the first episode of PWL since the whole world went bananas. This episode speaks to how I’ve been processing and dealing with all this stuff. Perhaps you’ve been feeling some of the same, maybe it helps me to get it out there. Who knows, so here goes. Thanks as always for being a part of the party!

In this episode, we cover these topics (and a few more):

Being quarantined with my girlfriend & some difficulties / distractions this is creating.
Why I took off from the podcast and how I’m trying to navigate this.
Where do I go until stand-up comedy comes back? What does it even look like?
I’ve been struggling a little bit with motivation in this time.
I talk about what I HAVE been up to (making art, going on walks, doing some work, etc).
Perfection is even less important than it used to be.
Some tips for these hard / weird times (getting outside, connecting, creating, etc).
We’re all going through the same stuff. Working on connecting with one another.
What are my goals for this time? – art, podcasts, videos, online shows.
The positive of just doing this podcast – reach out to someone this week.

Lots of news going on this week that has some relevance to a few experiences I’ve had in the past.

Party With Lance (It Looks Easy If It’s Done Well) – Episode 15

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 33:04 — 60.6MB) | Embed

Episode 15 is all the rage. That’s what they are saying at least. Who’s saying it? Me. Is it really all the rage? Sure! You say it, and so it is. I can’t believe I’ve done 15 episodes with zero guests. Unreal, but we made it! I don’t know, do you have to write a description here? For what? Who knows. Let’s try to not write that much. Here’s the stuff!

In this episode, we cover these topics (and a few more):

The world is just all about the internet & promoting now.
Has the world always been this crazy? Or do we just know more now?
I saw F16’s flying over Manhattan. Could I be a jet fighter pilot?
You can’t know that much about that many things / nothing is as easy as it looks.
I was not given the music or artistic (painting / drawing) gifts.
Why I don’t put my phone next to my junk (the wiener & such) or my head.
It’s not always paying dues, some people are just mean.
You have to make every day count – doing the math on it.
I share a joke that is always funny, nearly all the time.
If you’re on social media and just post photos of yourself, you’re a psychopath.

Releasing this podcast on Valentine’s Day, 2020! Whooooo!, Does it have much to do with Valentine’s? Not really, we talk about it a little bit at the end, but we’re also covering a whole bunch of other cool stuff here too! Can you say it’s the “Valentine’s Day Edition” if the content is not fully Valentine’s Day heavy? I don’t know, I got no idea. The internet is real wild. But you know what? I did just title it that, so I guess you can. There, boom, hello!!!!! The internet is stupid. Anywho,

In this episode, we cover these topics (and a few more):

I give the weather report for Phoenix, Arizona! – courtesy of weather.com.
Maybe I have Seasonal Affective Disorder?
I can’t get behind someone who supports Trump. My view has shifted even more.
Doing stand-up is like being a baseball batter over and over.
A positive factor to overpopulation. A way it helps us relate to one another.
Thoughts on leaving a legacy and why it’s stupid.
Signal coming from space. Are there aliens?

Party With Lance (Nobody BBQs in winter) – Episode 12

Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 37:51 — 69.3MB) | Embed

This week’s podcast takes something of a lighter approach in tone. Nothing too serious going down here. Just wasn’t into that sort of thing this week. That’s what makes this a cool medium. You can put it out however you want. I get into some topics, but I took a little break from any topics that are super heavy. But it is fun! And that’s the main point to me anyway, that it’s something fun. That’s the whole goal. Who knows what next week brings!

In this episode, we cover these topics (and a few more):

I attempt to give the NYC weather report via weather.com.
NYC streets are gross: dead rats, weird liquids, used condoms, etc.
Items of efficiency: double knotting shoes vs velcro, zippers, buttons, toggles, sink faucets.
I am against pranks for the most part, but I do know a fun April Fool’s Day one I share.
The ego it takes to do a solo podcast / to create art / to be a politician.
Can you throw something the exact same way if you know it’s rotation?
Pet Peeve of the week: Don’t hit “Reply All” on mass emails.
Sugar is everywhere – you got to keep dark chocolate around. Cacao!
There’s so much detail in everything. Be sure to look around for it.
What is a building? What makes a building a building?
