So, very soon something that has been a great joy for me to be a part of will be unleashed upon the internet. In about a week or so (2/20/14), an episode of “Rock Solid“, one of my very favorite podcasts will be released. Oh, and I got to be the guest co-host for this episode.

Let’s go back to 2013. Back in November, one of my other very favorite podcasts, “Never Not Funny“, hosted their annual charity event, Padcast-A-Thon, which James and I got to attend in person. Pardcast-A-Thon is a podcast telethon event hosted by Jimmy Pardo, Matt Belknap, and Pat Francis. It runs for about 13 hours and raises money for the charity Smile Train, a non profit organization that raises money to go to third world countries and give surgeries to kids with cleft lips and palates. One such way that they raise the money is through various ebay auctions that end during the show. One of these auctions was to be guest co-host with Pat Francis for an episode of “Rock Solid“, which is a spin-off show of “Never Not Funny“. Not only did I bid on said auction, but I won! Of course, this win did lead to wildly delusional speculation on how this would change my life, which is where today’s comic came from.

I highly recommend that you go and check out Rock Solid, it is an excellent podcast that combines music and comedy in a fantastic sonic fusion. And when you decide that you love it, you should totally review it on iTunes. If you don’t like it, please keep your opinions to yourself. While you’re at it, check out Never Not Funny, which has recently joined the Earwolf podcast network and is now free to listen to for full episodes. As for my episode of “Rock Solid” and my general experience, more on that next week…
