Episode 136- Dave Hill! Dave is a true Renaissance man. He is a musician, a comedian, an actor, a writer, a podcaster and a clothing designer. He truly excels at all these things. As a musician, he wrote the theme song for John Oliver’s show. His books have been been praised by author Malcolm Gladwell.  He has appeared on many great TV shows including Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, The Jim Gaffigan Show, Full Frontal with Samantha Bee and many more. There is a lot to discuss here and I had a lot of fun chatting with Dave about a variety of topics.0:00:00 - Intro0:01:02 - Dave's Many Projects 0:02:50 - Early Inspirations 0:04:15 - Childhood/Teen Years 0:07:00 - Working at a Homeless Shelter 0:10:50 - Some of Dave's Bands 0:13:35 - "Witch Taint" Black Metal Band0:23:30 - Early Musical Influences 0:25:30 - "Valley Lodge" Band0:28:05 - Working w/ Blink 182's Mark Hoppus 0:28:58 - Playing Music & Collaborating 0:30:55 - Working w/ Big Name Comedians 0:32:25 - Modern Family & Other Dave Hills 0:38:30 - TV Show Recommendations 0:42:25 - Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt 0:43:25 - "Drunk Bus" Movie 0:44:35 - Writing & Susie Essman 0:46:10 - Malcolm Gladwell's Writing Advice 0:49:35 - Comedian Mike Polk 0:52:46 - Accomplishing Projects & Daily Routine 0:56:15 - Motivation & Desire for Projects 1:01:50 - Meditation, Anxiety & Drugs 1:04:20 - Ice Cream & Dan Wilbur 1:07:50 - New York Comedy & Alt Comedy1:09:55 - Talent & Platforms1:12:40 - No Kid Hungry1:14:25 - Politics & Trump1:18:20 - Projects on the Horizon 1:21:15 - Wrap Up Dave Hill Website:https://www.davehillonline.comNo Kid Hungry Website:https://www.nokidhungry.orgChuck Shute Website:http://chuckshute.comSupport the show (https://venmo.com/Chuck-Shute)
