On today's episode of the podcast, I have 5x Emmy winner and Grammy winner, Rob Kutner!

Rob has been on the show a number of times as we writer for CONAN, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, for his comic books "Shrinkage" and "Snot Goblins", and today he joins me to talk about the new animated show he's the head writer of called, "God's Gang". Since Rob's departure from CONAN, he dove head on into animation. While "God's Gang" does center around religion's co-existing and working together, even if you are a non-religious person like me, it is still a very enjoyable show for all.

I talked with Rob on the episode about getting into animation, the adjustment to writing for late night to animation, truth in comedy, how he became involved with "God's Gang", positive comments on the internet (WHAT?!), and so much more!

A huge Thank You to Rob for taking the time to come on the show to talk about "God's Gang". I always have such a great time talking to Rob about his new ventures. You can follow Rob on all of the links and actually watch an episode of God's at www.onthemicpodcast.com

Thanks, Rob!

Enjoy the episode!

On today's episode I am coming to you LIVE from San Diego Comic-Con with Disney Animator and storyboard artist, Peter Paul Bautista!

I was so excited to have Peter Paul join us for this year's SDCC show. When I was first introduced to Peter Paul from Mike and JB at From North to Wharf we hit it off immediately chatting via social media and I knew he would be a lot of fun to talk to on the show about the incredible animation career he's built working on some incredible movies and tv shows.

I talked with Peter Paul about how he got his start in animation, losing a graphic design job at an engineering & oil company and stumbling into animation from there. Finding his first animation job as an inbetween artist on Space Jam, working on Clerks: The Animated Series and having no idea who Kevin Smith was, working on Mission Hill, finding his next job on The Tigger Movie, staring to work on movies and shows with Bento Box, such as the Bob's Burgers Movie and Krapopolis, and so much more!

A huge Thank You to Peter Paul Bautista for taking the time to join us in San Diego for the show! It was so much fun getting to know Peter Paul during this episode. Also a Thank You to his friend Rachel who snapped some photos for us during the show. A big thank you to Mike and JB of From North to Wharf for helping connect me with Peter Paul. Please make sure to follow Peter Paul on all of the links below. Thank you to the staff at San Diego Comic-Con for always being so amazing to us.

On today's episode I have comedian, Nick Callas!

Nick's new comedy special "Wolf Pup" is out now! I absolutely loved this special and can't wait for all of you to see it as well. Nick is such a unique comic, and this special has such a unique look into it. As you learn more about Nick's background, you'll really see it come to life in this special. Nick is pretty physical onstage as well, doing handstands, doing the splits, he gives his special his all!

I talked with Nick about growing up in New Jersey, finding touring and traveling with his girlfriend, finding the "cool" places to travel, the joys of staying inside, pursuing a career as a comic book artist before finding comedy, screening testing for SNL, his approach to comedy and putting on the best show he can, our love for comedy and the craft of comedy, and so much more.
