125. Boxing & Acting with Jack O’Halloran / Super Bowl Week



John and Coleman have an extra long show this week! The guys interview the legend Jack O’Halloran, known for his successful boxing career and for playing some big roles in Hollywood. Jack talks about going toe to toe with George Foreman, beating the crap out of champions, and even almost getting a fight with Muhammad Ali! He also discusses some of his characters that he has played in movies such as Superman 1 and 2 (Non), King Kong (Joe Perko), Dragnet (Emil), Farewell My Lovely (Moose), March or Die (Ivan), and more! Listen to Jack talk about how he slammed Christopher Reeve up against a wall, inspired Sylvester Stallone’s “Rocky” character, and the roles he has turned down in some big movies, like James Bond for example! And did you know he has a book?

Sprinkled around the interview, John and Coleman talk about the Super Bowl and everything surrounding it. From the commercials to the halftime show, and from the game itself to Trump being confused as to which state won the game. Also, Coleman went camping! He tells John how much of a struggle the weather and his tent was, despite having a good time overall. We can not thank Mr. Jack O’Halloran enough for taking time out of his busy day to chat with us about all that he has accomplished! Look out in the future for his other books and potentially any motion pictures he may be working on! We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoy chatting, laugh with us or at us, and tip your pizza maker!


Backyard Sessions 9 – Rocky Socha @ The Copper Rocket



This one is John chattin’ and learnin’ more about his Backyard co-host. Rocky Socha moves into the guest chair and we banter at one of his favorite places, The Copper Rocket! – This bar is fantastic for food, beer, and entertainment at really affordable prices. The Copper Rocket was even featured on the television show “Bar Rescue” (season 6 episode 9), but we intend to learn more about that in a later episode.

John and Rocky talk about a number of things from the continuing up-and-coming podcast scene in Orlando, FL to what the scene looked like when Rocky began hosting 3 years ago. Discussions also include how his show “What’s the Fuss?” was formulated and the personas behind himself, Etchie, Ry, and the late Hurricane Bill. The drinking was a little extra in this one, but it is what it is. When at a bar, you got to have a few drinks! Thanks for listening, downloading, and playing along. Share the show with a friend!


Backyard Sessions 7 – Ry Perry



John and Rocky start late in this one doing the whole show during sundown when it was pitch black, and with no breaks! They have on as a guest designer/podcaster/good-guy Ry Perry from “Disclaimers Not Apologies” and “What’s the Fuss?” Podcasts. His DNA podcast group page has swirled a lot of conversation lately, so naturally we discussed things such as the difficulty of moderating, accomplishing resolution and the point of revolution; and most importantly the main intentions behind the new political-based show.

There were a lot of laughs shared in this one, discussing things like how much emo is too emo, Al Sharpton struggling to spell, what we thought “wet-start” meant at first, and a butt load more! – John’s co-host Coleman, and Ry’s other-half pop on the show for a second to say hi! We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoy chatting, and LAUGH WITH US OR AT US! & Staye Wheird
