Tommy O Show

Episode 03 Rufus McGaugh

RuFUs! Tommy reunites with 8th grade Social Studies teacher that has TRAVELED to EVERY COUNTRY on EARTH! His newest, funniest and most self deprecating book yet on all his world travels is available now on Amazon! "Travels, Treasures, and Tales of a Nomad". Rufus was born and raised in Michigan and interrupted his college education with a 2-year stint in the Marine Corps, serving in the jungles of the Que Son Mts. of Vietnam. He was a grunt machine-gunner and wounded in December of 1970. Finishing his degree, he embarked on a teaching career that has now spanned 46 years. Rufus completed his quest to visit every country in the world in May of 2017. A highly dangerous trip where he literally had to stay one step ahead of ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and tribal terrorists, in his travels, he has now been to all 50 states, all 7 continents (with a 74 degree below zero temperature in Antarctica), and 258 countries and lands. He has written FOUR books in a humorous fashion about his experiences, and in the opinion of this former student, well worth the read.

Episode 02 Cooper Barnes

Cooper Barnes is best known for his roles on "Henry Danger" and "Danger Force" as Captain Man, but he's best known to me as a truly thoughtful, grounded and profoundly nerdy friend. Coop is the kind of human being that no matter how long it's been, we can sit down and have a vibrant meaningful conversation together and I genuinely love him for it. In this episode the fellow Michigander talks on everything from the socially awkward to pizza, childhood heroes, 80's movies and Quaker school. Enjoy!

Tommy O Show Episode 01 Sitara Falcon

Sitara Elizabeth Falcon and I met working on “National Lampoon’s Lemmings” together, it was a revival of the original Lemmings stage show with John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Christopher Guest and so many other legends. I couldn’t have known it in the moment, but Sitara was the perfect first person to meet in a cast of insanely talented young improvisers, sketch and stand up comedians. Sitara is genuine, genuinely kind, insanely talented, a fantastic father and probably an OK husband. I love him like family – and more than most of my family – and I wish he would stop letting his kids read my text messages and listen to my voicemails. Sitara is an Actor, VO talent, Teacher, friend of 15 years and an honor to have as the first guest on the Tommy O Show.
