Anthony Zenkus – Ep115

Anthony Zenkus is a tireless advocate for the welfare of children, families and communities. Working in the field of family violence, relationship violence, sexual assault and child poverty, he has trained thousands of professionals and community members across the country on how to better recognize, prevent and respond to abuse and neglect. Some of that expertise helped Anthony go viral last winter when the Trump campaign sent out a video of him speaking on Joe Biden. The ironic part? Professor Zenkus is not even a fan of Trump’s. Hear how that all played out as well as how he and Evan met due to Anthony’s other life as lead singer of the band Joe Lies. They reminisce on Munchaba Lounge, the Long Island music scene, WLIR and so much more!

Chrissy Sampson – Ep010

Awkwardness reaches new heights when Evan invites his ex-girlfriend Chrissy Sampson onto the podcast, as they speak for the first time since she dumped him in 2003. Evan and Chrissy reminisce about Long Island nightlife, especially Levittown’s Munchaba Lounge (3:32). Chrissy then chronicles what it’s like to live year-round in the Hamptons (in her 30s) and unveils some details about a book she is looking to publish (15:00), which means she needs to have a snobby author bio (17:25). And before talking about her career as journalist (21:23), Evan asks Chrissy about how she has unintentionally had a knack for dating Jewish guys (18:36). Grab some popcorn, because things definitely get awkward.
