Today's  interview is with Dan, age 36. Dan barely qualifies as an ordinary person.
He is a record producer and the president of StandUp! Records.

We talk about his life as one of the only Jewish families in a small town in Nebraska,
and as the son of recent Jewish imigrants from Poland and Palastinian Israel.
I loved Dan, and hope you do too!

Check out the records Dan produces for famous stand-up comedians like Lewis Black,
at his web page www.standuprecords.com.

Today, Sheila from Canada takes on the Big Questions. She is 22 \
years old, and is a Biology student interested in consciousness.
She was a complete delight to talk to, and I didn't want to stop!
I left the show a little long because I enjoyed her answers so much,
I didn't want to cut very much of our conversation at all.

Don't miss the 2nd half of the show where we discuss the chemistry
of Love!

Today we have a Skype interview with Andrew, age 36 who takes on the big questions of life. He is the father of 2 preschoolers, happily married, and a self described "featureless cubicle boy". Andrew is from England, and now living in the states.

We talked for over 2 hours! I had to cut the show down to something manageable, and I think you will find him warm, funny, and wise. His views are that of a scientist who thinks the evidence for telepathy and things of that sort are rather compelling. It is a delightful and unique take we haven't heard yet on U.Q. I know you will enjoy this show!

This show is a Skype interview with Dana, age 29, the girl with pink hair from St. Johns, Newfoundland. Dana is the creator of the podcast BLARM at www.blarmcast.com.

Dana takes on the "big questions" with intelligence, humor, and laughter -
and at the end we discuss sex, love, what the heck it is guys want, and body image problems of women - like two girlfriends chatting on the phone.

The show is over a week late, because I hopelessly tried to get 100 delightful minutes with Dana, down to a managable 50 minutes. An impossible task!
Join in the fun, and give it a listen.

This is the Uncomfortable Questions 1 year Anniversary Show.

It is a Skype interview with Jake Cordova, age 31, a power seller on Ebay, a Humanist, and an Athiest surrounded by Mormans in Utah!

We had an amazing, wonderful talk, on dealing with a religious town while being an Athiest, how being a diabetic from the age of 3 changes your views of life, the facinating story of divorcing his wife to save their deep frienship of 13 years, and many other subjects. This is a don't miss episode!

Jake is also one of the hosts on Choose The Left podcast, a funny and
quirky show he does with his ex-wife Erin. It made the top 10 in the Podcast Pickle Cast Wars. Congratulations Jake and Erin!

You can get to their show at http:\\ctlcast.com

Today is a Skype interview where we hear the philosophies of life from Patrick Brumbaugh - age 28, an optimistic realist, I.T. Support guy, lover of physics and science.

Patrick is sometimes heard on the podcast www.AShantyNoLemon.com

By the way, you can also hear me on the 6/28/06 show from that same site.
The creator of the podcast interviewed me about my show. It was strange to be on the other side of the conversation!

This is a special show - and Skype interview to Lynoure, Age 30, Linux Geek from Finland!! She and I overcame many technical problems for 2 hours, just to get the Skype connection that allowed us to do the interview. But she stayed with me, and the results are worthi it!

Lynoure is a darling, and we talked not only about the big questions, but got a Finnish cultural perspective on many things, and we ended with a discussion on solipsism ( a theory holding that the self can know nothing but its own modifications and that the self is the only existent thing), and overcomming depression. To say nothing of superpowers! Enjoy!

As usual, write to me at uncomfortable-question@tcinternet.net.

I'm back from a New England vacation, and trying to get back on track.
The first new show in a month - but it's worth the wait!

This show is an interview with John Vardell, age 32. He is a member of the
electro/industrial/goth band Automne Vein - check out their web page and listen to some of the music at:
 

I really liked many of his views on life - but his last words really hit me.
I am trying to remember them, and follow that wise advice everyday!
