Podcaster, Videographer, Blogger, Comedian, and turning 74 in 2025. Created the Old and in the Way Podcast which is featured on YouTube, Facebook, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Boomheart Radio (and many other podcast platforms via Podbean), and lastly and kinda fun, TikTok.

The podcast has featured musicians (from the Grateful Dead and Foreigner), the Grateful Dead's only authorized historian, Joel Selvin from Rolling Stone magazine, and a music critic for the San Francisco Chronicle), authors, actors, comedians, and filmmakers. Our shows are light-hearted and fun, and sometimes we do comedy sketches.

Our tagline is "Fighting Ageism One Bad Joke at a Time!

Welcome to the Podcast Swamp! We have officially hit Peak Audio. Remember when starting a podcast required a microphone, a concept, and something resembling a unique perspective? Those days are gone. Today, all you need is a working vocal cord, an internet connection, and the unwavering confidence that the world desperately needs your hot take on pretty much anything, and hopefully not a product pitch. If you log onto any Streaming platform right now, you aren’t looking at a directory; you’re looking at what they’re calling:  The Podcast Deluge. A literal tidal wave of digital noise …

When I turned 70, I sat in my favorite chair, looked back at my life, and whispered to myself, “So… this is the beginning of the final stretch.” And slowly, the truths I had avoided all my life began to surface. Kids? They’re busy writing their own story. Health? Slips away faster than sand through open fingers. The government? Just headlines, promises, and numbers that never change your daily reality. Aging doesn’t hurt your body first — it hurts your illusions. So I sat down with myself and carved out a handful of bitter but necessary truths. ⸻ Kids d…

Buckle up buttercups. The artificial intelligence revolution is already here, and there are no guardrails. Our government has been asleep at the wheel while enriching themselves (grifting) and the tech overlords are only too willing to suck up to avoid any consequences.

The phrase ” domestic cat ” is an oxymoron.   George Will Dogs believe they are human.  Cats believe they are God. Anonymous The cat is the only non-gregarious domestic animal.              Francis Galton You call to a dog and the dog will break his neck getting to you. Dogs just want to please.  Call a cat and its attitude is: “What’s in it for me?”   Lewis Grizzard It’s easy to understand why the cat has eclipsed the dog as modern America’s favorite pet.  People like pets to possess the same qualities as they do.  Cats are irresponsible and reco…

The Man. The Myth. The mid-eighties in Sausalito had a specific rhythm. It was a mix of salt air, tourist energy, and the steady, rhythmic clinking of glassware at Horizons. As a bartender there, I thought I’d seen every kind of character. Then I met Walt Stack. For those who didn’t grow up in Northern California during that era, Walt was more than a local celebrity—he was a force of nature. Long before “influencers” existed, Walt was influencing an entire generation simply by existing. I met Walt on an unusually beautiful day at Horizons. No fog, short-sleeved weather, and he …

Chesterton Optimism: The doctrine or belief that everything is beautiful, including what’s ugly.  Ambrose Bierce The place where optimism flourishes most is the lunatic asylum.  Havelock Ellis I find nothing more depressing than optimism.  Paul Fussel The reason we all like to think so well of others is that we are all afraid for ourselves.  The best of optimism is sheer terror.  Oscar Wilde Optimist: A proponent of the doctrine that black is white.

Carlos Santana and “The Magnificent” Marcus Malone The Greatest Story never told— one of the most touching, overlooked stories in rock history: the reunion between legendary guitarist Carlos Santana and his long-lost bandmate Marcus “The Magnificent” Malone — a man who helped shape the early sound of Santana’s band but whose life took a tragic turn only to come full circle decades later. Back in the mid-1960s, before Santana became a household name, a group of young musicians — including Marcus Malone — were honing their sound in the Bay Area. Malone was a brillian…
