#4 Tell Me A Story Damian Hutchinson – The Con Cons
02 days ago
It used to be a semi-dangerous right of passage, going to a Con. It used to be a smaller, more select, far less mainstream way to spend time, take drugs, fail to achieve coital pairing with a lady, and celebrate one’s dorkdom. The Con. Guest story teller Damian Hutchinson, artist, professor, programmer, and friend from the olden days joined me to chat up days gone by, women we loved who found us silly and mostly harmless, places we loved that exist no longer, and the violent charm of Frenchmen.
Join us, please, as we skip down Reminiscence Boulevard.

#3 Tell Me A Story – Ethan Persoff – “Electric Kool-Aid”
2 weeks ago
What a hilarious romp through the early 90′s when artist Ethan Persoff gave Robert Smith a run for his money and J.M. buttered his toast with Pearl Jam – this episode of The LEFT Show presents: Tell Me A Story will hopefully remain away from the ears of the authorities. Seriously. This is probably NSFKids.

#2 Tell Me A Story – Tom Cheevers “Loss”
3 weeks ago
Everything is temporary, no matter how hard you try to hold on to whatever was important … or not? Plot twists and odd revelations run rampant in this episode as Tom Cheevers from Kicking Ass on Netroots Radio and CEO of Cheevers Creative (seriously a very talented guy – hire him for stuff) and JM Bell share intimate, personal, painful, and mostly hilarious stories.
"The Left Show, a weekly self-produced podcast that takes the piss out of conservative politics, local and national, with equal parts vitriol and comedy, making for an hour-plus “radio” show (complete with swear jar) somewhere between The Daily Show and Real Time With Bill Maher."
