My next guest is a performer, writer, musician… after viewing a friend/colleagues one person show—she felt inspired, but also felt a little aimless in what she should write… she opted to share. She dared to tell everyone, personally, anecdotally-- Schizophrenia Is Funny.

(she's also turning her show into a short film!)

Some of my favorite episodes are no longer available online. I wanted to rerun this episode from the archives, the episode where I speak with legendary Boxing analyst and commentator—Jim Lampley.

Jim and I discuss story telling, boxing, his iconic calls, and where boxing is today. He was promoting his memoir “It Happened”. It was a joy discuss Mr Lampley’s career

Musician/Artist JPBraxton is in the drivers seat, and at the wheels of steel, with a live mix for you, he takes us deep in the mix, and he manages to torment Nero with food talk as Nero is out via a tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy (and can't eat).

Check out JPBraxton's new album!!

Puckett Electric guest hosts on IWYTK this week. The show was hatched from a discussion Nero and Puckett Electric had regarding "who'd be in your super group? what makes a super group?" etc.

Puckett Electric showcases his heady, groovy, gritty, and cinematic songs, and plays cuts from his supergroup candidates, he also spotlights Nero's picks. You'll learn a lot, and rock and dance too..

(Nero is out due to his tonsillectomy)

This week on I Want You To Know my guest is musician/composer Jerik Centeno. Jerik is releasing his score to the feature film Riley. It’s a lush, dreamy, pensive, melancholy piece, that suits the achey, sensual and raw 'coming of age' film.

We discuss Jerik’s upbringing, influences, mentor, and process. And we play lots of ambient, weird, and arty soundscapes for your rainy days.

This week on I Want You To Know—Rachel Walther is in for Nero. Rachel's a film columnist, writer, & our I Want You To Know film critic. And, she talks to— musician and cultural historian Nick Rossi. Nick is an accomplished musician, a mover and shaker in the Jazz scene, and he’s also the Music Director for the Noir City.

Rachel and Nick deep dive into some of the songs synonymous with film Noir, Noir City’s history as a film fest, the background stories to these famous Noir themes, and-- overall enlighten us on Noir. if you love Film Noir—this will be a gas, and an education.

We keep our thoughts on/with Minneapolis.
