Take Your Shoes Off w/ Rick Glassman

Take Your Shoes Off w/ Rick Glassman

Hi, I'm Rick Glassman, and I'm a goofy guy and a cute boy. As a kid, I had debilitating OCD. I still have a lot of “things.” The title of my podcast “Take Your Shoes Off” is a microcosm of my need for control and order in a world that... keeps their shoes on. I created this podcast to showcase a more serious side, as I have conversations with some of the funniest and most interesting people in the world. I’ve learned the language of comedy in an attempt to survive this shoes-on world, so of course there will be some goofs and spoofs, but think of this podcast as you being a fly on the wall, as opposed to being an audience member in a theatre. Please, take your shoes off, and enjoy!

The Sleepover Series, New York edition, continues this week with Joe Santagato. Joe hosts the wildly popular podcast, The Basement Yard, along side his co-host, Frank Alvarez. Frank was scheduled to take his shoes off along side Joe, but for reasons that you'll have to listen to in this podcast, he couldn't make it. If you like people talking into microphones, I have a feeling you'll like this episode.

Grace Kinstler, American Idol top 3 finalist, takes her shoes off for the first time. Rick found Grace's singing on instagram a few weeks ago, then invited her onto TYSO the next time she was in LA. So happens that she was coming to LA to record acoustic videos for her music -- and of course we invited TYSO Music Legend, George Krikes to play and sing with Grace. Lots of great music in this one.
