The Many Meanderings Of The First Gen X Man

The Middle Ages

My favorite excruciating tales of middle age.  Hear about that time I dyed my beard, that other time I got a hair transplant, and that other time I got what I will call "The Big Snip". It's a lot of fun that the kids these days would call cringey.

The Brotherhood of Fatherhood

This one's for the Dads.  Hear about fishless fishing expeditions and whale-less whale watches, and mountains that we cannot climb due to sinus pressure.   Plus Dad School and the horror of my Dad's Birds and the Bees talk.

Sunday Best

This episode we're putting on our Sunday best, stories that is.  Hear about the "embarassing bell incident" and random surprise funerals when I was an altar boy, the pageantry of midnight Mass on Christmas Eve,  and a rare recording of the "Blessing of the Corned Beef and Cabbage" from a St. Bridget's Church St. Patrick's Day Dinner Dance circa 1975.

S2E2 Bonus Track "Virtual Agency Tour"

Here's a bonus track that didn't quite make it onto S2E2 Work, Work, Work.  Recently I took some prospective clients on a tour of the home office space of my virtual ad agency.   It didn't go quite as well as I'd hoped.  Several of my kids, I mean younger staff are somewhat to blame.

Work, Work, Work.

Stories about work, and home, and working from home.  A rare recording from 1978 of a phone call to my mom at work, from her loving and somewhat belligerent children.  The strange but true story of that time I really,  really annoyed heavyweight champion George Foreman.    Plus those pesky work distractions at home and the odd coincidence of my Dad and I both losing our jobs at about the same age.
