Shannon Kroner – Ep147

Dr. Shannon Kroner has been working with special needs families since 2001. She is also the Executive Director of Freedom Of Religion – United Solutions (FOR-US), building an interfaith coalition of religious leaders who have united to protect the religious freedom of vaccine choice, helping thousands of Americans obtain religious vaccine exemptions for work and school. Most recently she is the author of the children’s book I’m Unvaccinated and That’s OK! published by Skyhorse Publishing and ICAN Press. In this interview hear her origin story, how Covid galvanized the vaccine choice movement and how celebrities have been blown away by her efforts. This conversation will be more candid than awkward.

In honor of Shannon’s appearance, order her new children’s book on Amazon or order autographed copies at drshannonkroner.com.

Note: Due to the open discourse of the interview, a full video can be found on Socially Awkward’s Rumble channel: https://rumble.com/c/c-1042581.

Actor Jim Meskimen – Ep134

Jim Meskimen is a talented mix of acting, voiceovers, impressions and general artistry. He is also approaching 300 credits on IMDB thanks to appearances on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Gas Lit, Apollo 13 and such commercials as Geico and KFC! Jim is now sharing his wealth of knowledge with a new online course called The Working Actor Method (jimworkingactor.com). Besides laying out the course, Jim and Evan talk about his past credits, his mother Marion Ross from Happy Days and his favorite impressions. Then Evan tries to extract an impression of wrestling commentator Jim Ross just to see if Jim (Ross) Meskimen can impersonate Jim Ross. While enlightening, also enjoy Evan’s awkward technical difficulties!

In honor of Jim’s appearance, rent Apollo 13 on Amazon!

Evan also reveals playing a fundraiser to raise money for Weird Al’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and how Ethan attended the eventual ceremony! Then they discuss the viability of virtual comedy, outdoor comedy and comedy in general in a ‘woke era.’ Plus, how people butcher Ethan’s name so much and why he loves Eastern Washington University. Super awkward!

Ari Glasgow – Ep076

Ari Glasgow messaged Evan on LinkedIn with questions about how to get into comedy. Evan replied by saying ‘Be my Facebook friend, come on my podcast, and I’ll answer your questions.’ So here we are: a fellow Tufts Jumbo like Evan, Ari is going into his senior year and starting to look at life after college and life in comedy. How does one get into comedy? How to promote yourself? Do you need a day job? Should you try to join SAG-AFTRA? All those questions and more will be answered, plus some Tufts University banter.

NOTE: Audio on Ari’s end is a little echoey, because Evan’s an idiot, but at least he does a majority of the talking on this one.
