Oversocial Update: April 6, 2023

Oversocial #7 with Duncan Shields

Duncan Shields is my first Canadian guest, my tallest friend, and one very funny poet. He’s the kind of guy who has made me laugh in the biggest variety of ways—through direct, verbal hilarity, facial gestures, body language, original memes, text, photography and poetry. More than that, Duncan is kind, friendly and warm. We had this conversation in his home and I forgot to record the first 20 minutes of it. Worse things have happened. Duncan is on Instagram: instagram.com/byduncanshields/ [https://www.instagram.com/byduncanshields/] • • • In Duncan’s kitchen and basement office in East Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. • • • New episodes of Oversocial will be available Thursdays to my Patreon subscribers and on Mondays everywhere else. patreon.com/mightymikemcgee [https://www.patreon.com/mightymikemcgee] • • • Music by the stubendous Ben Henderson.

Oversocial #6 with Carin White

Carin White is the first person I ever met in my kitchen and had an instant connection. I was immediately smitten with her. She is from San José, but spends most of here time in upstate New York doing what artists do. She has taught so much about love, friendship and how to hug someone safely during a pandemic. I am very, very happy to introduce you to my friend Carin. • • • Recorded in my Kitchen in Downtown San José. • • • New episodes of Oversocial will be available Thursdays to my Patreon subscribers and on Mondays everywhere else. https://www.patreon.com/mightymikemcgee [https://www.patreon.com/mightymikemcgee] • • • Music by the stubendous Ben Henderson / @ohmaigawd [https://www.instagram.com/ohmaigawd].

Oversocial #5 with Derrick Brown

I am delighted to introduce you to my friend Derrick Brown. We met in 2003 and learned very quickly that we could make each other laugh with great ease. Derrick is a performance poet, comedian and the captain of Write Bloody Publishing. I've spent more time on the road performing with Derrick than with anyone else. He's has proven to me to be one of the most honorable dudes I know. Visit writebloody.com and brownpoetry.com to be mesmerized. • • • My cat Xena makes an appearance in this episode. I think she knows when I am recording and is determined to interrupt. • • • Recorded outside of Specs' Twelve Adler Museum Cafe in San Francisco. specsbarsf.com • • • New episodes of Oversocial will be available Thursdays to my Patreon subscribers and on Mondays everywhere else. https://www.patreon.com/mightymikemcgee • • • Music by the stubendous Ben Henderson [https://www.instagram.com/ohmaigawd/?hl=en] / @ohmaigawd.

Oversocial Update: April 6, 2023

A new segment for a new addition to the newness that is Oversocial. These updates will be as personal as the episodes, but also shorter, different and more timely. I will post an update every first and third Monday, and use it as a means of connecting directly with my listeners. • • • Thank you for listening!

Oversocial #4 with Rachel McKibbens

Rachel McKibbens is my bruja from another brood. We met during my first tour in SoCal poetry circuit in the summer of 2001 and we have been family ever since. One of the most respected and revered performance poets of this century, Rachel is a fighting force on stage and off. We run through so much in this conversation, and it’s no holds barred. Lots of healthy talk about death, Naugles, Pac Man and people. You can follow Rachel at https://www.instagram.com/vulturekiss/ • • • Recorded in the spring in my backyard in Downtown San José. • • • New episodes of Oversocial will be available Thursdays to my Patreon subscribers and on Mondays everywhere else. https://www.patreon.com/mightymikemcgee • • • Music by the stubendous Ben Henderson / @ohmaigawd.
