S2 Ep5: Holly Finigan: Nantucket Blackbook Mar 08, 2018

Show notes

My guest this week is Holly Finigan, who many of you will likely know from her wildly succesful, stylish and informative Instagram account @nantucketblackbook. In a world full of fraudulent social media influencers and experts (puke!), Holly is one of the few people whose advice rings entirely true to me. We discuss how she was able to walk away from the insane gobs of money she would make bartending in Nantucket in-season and launch her own marketing and media firm. She also shares the importance of being genuine on social media and reminds us all that there are no shortcuts to building a meaningful following online.

S2 Ep2: Jefferson Waful : Lighting Director for Umphrey's McGee Feb 01, 2018

Show notes

Jefferson Waful has been lighting director for Umphrey’s McGee for the past ten years.

In that time, he and the band have developed a rare chemistry that has propelled them into one of the most-popular touring acts in the jam band world. I caught up with Jefferson when he was in town for Umphrey’s 20th anniversary shows at the Beacon and learned about all the preparation it takes to allow him to be ‘in the moment’ during the show.

S2 Ep1: Jimmy Webb Jan 24, 2018

Show notes

‘I NEED MORE’ isn’t only the name of Jimmy Webb’s awesome Lower East Side rock ‘n roll boutique: it’s also this legendary New Yorker’s approach to life! In the four decades since he moved to New York City as a teenager without a penny to his name, Jimmy, who counts a veritable whose who of rock royalty among his closest friends, has the scars and stories to show for a life lived in pursuit of his big city dreams. In the first episode of Season 2 of Binge Talking, Steve is thrilled to chat with one of the most down-to-earth, yet larger-than-life characters he has ever met.

S1 Ep8: Tattoo Artist Chris Torres Nov 01, 2017

Show notes

Tattooing is an ancient art form that is as popular as ever. That can be good and bad for people who make their living as tattoo artists. On this week's episode of 'Binge Talking', Steve sits down with native-NYC tattoo artist Chris Torres who shares colorful stories about his indoctrination into the world of tattooing, his mixed feelings about being on the TLC show 'NY Ink' and why its probably best to not facetime someone when he's in the middle of giving you a tattoo.

S1 Ep7: Artist Jim Mckenzie Oct 25, 2017

Show notes

Some people were just destined to be an artist. That certainly is the case with NYC-area artist Jim McKenzie. Steve started following McKenzie on Instagram a few years ago and watched his follower count balloon after he posted a clip meticulously documenting the making of his sculpture "The Scarecrow" went viral. On this week's episode of 'Binge Talking' the two only-children sit down and talk about why he left Brooklyn, basically quit his day job to focus on art full-time and how his aspirations continue to evolve with time.

S1 Ep6: New York Dog Trainer Shelby Semel Oct 18, 2017

Show notes

If you want your dog to be a good boy (oh yes he is) it doesn't happen by accident. They need training. As Steve found out when he and his wife got their beloved doodle Ryder, the right way to deal with a pooch is often the opposite of how you might think. In this week's episode of Binge Talking, Steve sits down with his trainer Shelby Semel for the ins and outs of owning a dog in the city.

Mark "Weissguy" Weiss Rock Music Photographer Oct 11, 2017

Show notes

Mark Weiss has been one of the most-renowned music photographers for four decades and counting. Not only did he capture countless bands (GNR, Motley, Van Halen) from the very beginning of their careers, he's maintained those relationships to the present day providing him with an enviable level of access to some of the most legendary artists alive. On this episode of 'Binge Talking' he shares stories of his improbable career; everything from being arrested as a teen for selling KISS pictures outside MSG, to his time on the road with Motley Crue and Ozzy and how memory issues stemming from a childhood dirt bike accident make his photos such an important part of how he remembers his own wildly fascinating life.
