  • You are not ready for Clown Duo Oskie and Julie in their Tank Tops!

    You are not ready for Clown Duo Oskie and Julie in their Tank Tops!
    2026/10/20
    Full disclosure, I did not know what to expect when I invited the “Clown Alley” clowns (it’s actually called The Alley Show) on the show at the recommendation of TTT alum Akela Munsey. In fact, I did no research ahead of time. Let me say that A) I enjoyed it, B) I liked them because they believe in what they do, and C) It’s pretty gross (intentionally). This episode was nuts, funny, and super illuminating. I learned a lot, got a little nauseous, but was glad they came in and brought their insanity along with them. Throw on a tank top, keep your mind open, and have a listen to the mad clowns!

  • Johnny Sneed is an Actor, Drummer, and My Neighbor in a Tank Top

    Johnny Sneed is an Actor, Drummer, and My Neighbor in a Tank Top
    2026/10/13
    Please welcome Johnny “Handsome” Sneed, my brother in the struggle of the middle-aged-actor/Dad. Johnny lives across the street from me, and I often see him loading up his truck with his drum kit to play a bar with his band. You’d probably recognize him more as an actor, and I’ve been in the same audition waiting room with him more times than I can count. As I say on the show, every time he shows up it’s like Norm from Cheers walked in. Every actor just yells, “Johnny!” It was a blast to talk acting, music, fatherhood, and how various things have changed (or not) with my bud. Throw on an acting tank and enjoy!

  • Whitmer Thomas is a Comedian/Skater/Musician/Sweet Dude in a Tank Top

    Whitmer Thomas is a Comedian/Skater/Musician/Sweet Dude in a Tank Top
    2026/10/06
    Whitmer Thomas and I go way back and I’ve always loved his comedy but when I saw his new HBO special “Terminal Crew of Dudes,” I was blown away. To be simple, it’s like “Jackass” with heart and more art (and music). On a more complex level, it took me back to my skating days as a kid and a simpler time when being silly, young, and falling down a lot was just the fucking best. Whitmer is funny, emotionally open, and has that thing all comics really need: An openness to discovering things. This episode was really awesome, kinda deep, and super hilarious. Strap on a tank, drop into a half-pipe, and have a listen.

  • Paul Walter Hauser is an Actor/Wrestler/Husband in a Tank Top

    Paul Walter Hauser is an Actor/Wrestler/Husband in a Tank Top
    2026/09/29
    Paul Walter Hauser is a great actor, a hilarious guy, and a kind, humble man. You might know him from “I, Tonya,” “Blackbird,” or “Richard Jewell,” but did you know he’s also a pro wrestler? Yep. We got into acting, being with someone again after a breakup (we have similar relationship stories), and he even taught me a lesson on being better to myself (using scripture, no less). A Hollywood giant and a true gent. Throw on a tank for this King and listen in!

  • Jamel Johnson is Instant Hilariousness in a Tank Top

    Jamel Johnson is Instant Hilariousness in a Tank Top
    2026/09/22

    Just like frosted Lucky Charms are magicially delicious, Jamel Johnson is instantly hilarious. I’ve known him for a little while, but it wasn’t until the Toledano Street Festival in New Orleans that I became a rabid fan. All weekend the comedians were onstage and off, drinking and hanging out, but I made a point to see all of Jamel’s sets after seeing his first one. He’s basically that guy that rolls onstage and becomes the funniest guy in the room, with the vibe of a guy who just showed up to the party and everybody is psyched. Just a no-brainer to have on the show. If you like to laugh, and have a free hour for enjoyable listening, throw on a tank top and throw on this episode.

  • Michael Shepperd is My Neighbor in a Golden Girls Tank Top

    Michael Shepperd is My Neighbor in a Golden Girls Tank Top
    2026/09/15
    When I moved into the house my wife and I bought in 2018, Michael was one of the first neighbors I met and I was immediately glad I did. Everybody should have a talented, kind, black, gay, kind, hilarious neighbor with a husband and two kids like I do. This episode was so amazing and special because I learned so much about a guy who lives just down the block from me. For example, I knew he played Audrey 2 from Little Shop of Horrors, but didn’t know he did it on Broadway (!!). I also didn’t know how he and his husband Hutch met(a story both beautiful and absolutely insane). Throw on your favorite Golden Girls tank top and take a listen!

  • Shapel Lacey Can Do a Backflip in a Tank Top

    Shapel Lacey Can Do a Backflip in a Tank Top
    2026/09/08

    I’ve had a lot of comedians on Tank Top Talks, but I don’t think I’ve had any who did the DIY thing as well as Shapel. Sure, we all work at getting the word out about ourselves, but Shapel A) stays on the road, and B) his online stuff is so well curated and uniquely him. I love his backstory as a cheerleader (he can still f-ing backflip, which is insane to me), how he got over his “crazy days” as a partier, and how focused he is while still being hilarious. Note: Watch this ep on YouTube so you can see Shapel shoot looks at Max when he says something funny. Dude loves an audience! Strap on a tank and throw on this ep. So fun.

  • Tyler Wells Runs Restaurants in Los Angeles in a Tank Top (Kind of)

    Tyler Wells Runs Restaurants in Los Angeles in a Tank Top (Kind of)
    2026/09/01
    If you eat out in LA and you like tasty food and good vibes, you’ve probably gone to All Time in Los Feliz or Betsy’s in Altadena. A co-founder of the first and the owner of the second, Tyler first came on the scene with Handsome Coffee, a company he later sold to make his first restaurant. During renovations on my house years ago, I used to walk over to All Time covered in drywall dust and treat myself to a coffee. After a week or two, Tyler told the staff to stop charging me for them. Since then we’ve been buds and I’ve been trying to get him on Tank Top Talks forever. If you’re into restaurants, starting a business, or just about treating people on all sides the right way, this is the episode for you.
