#487 - The Story of Ernie O'Donnell

Chuck and I kick things off with a quick discussion about how busy he has been recently. I affirm my commitment to stillness and solitude and Chuck seems to intentionally misunderstand! After a few pieces of listener feedback, we throw it to an interview Chuck completed with Ernie O'Donnell. You may know him as Rick Derris from Clerks or any number of other creative projects. In addition, Ernie talks about Smodcastle East and the future for live events in and around Red Bank, NJ. We come back and Chuck shares the tale of a former friend and we weigh whether or not we should have this person on the podcast.
