The Thruline with Jay Larson

When you’re the youngest of four kids in a single parent house you don’t always get all of your needs met. That’s why comedian, writer and over all inquisitor Jay Larson has so many unanswered interests. Jay uses a type writer because his grandfather did, who else does? Jay wants to be a classic rock vinyl guy but all that was ever played in his house was classical music. He loves old cars but can’t even change oil let alone how many cylinders one has. Each week Jay will explore his curiosities with two separate guests to help him better understand true Crime, Bird watching, Story Telling or surviving life in unusual living conditions. With 17 years as a stand up comedian, actor, writer and weird person who will talk to anyone Jay has acquired a vast range of friends. Which enables him to talk Vinyl records with Marc Maron, binoculars with House of Cards star Michael Kelly (Stamper), Storytelling with Ira Glass, Type Writers with a German ex-physis repairman, and many other random topics. While each topic acts as a thru line to each episode Larson digs deeper to explore how we are all connected to simple things in life.

Binoculars Jan 15, 2019

On this week's episode of The Thruline Jay uses Binoculars as a way to get to know Writer/actor/comedian Adam Cayton Holland. Adam created "Those Who Can't" on TruTV and authored the memoir, "Tragedy plus Time". Adam is also an avid bird watcher which made Denver's City Park the perfect place to chat. And from the park to the city Jay goes to sit down with "House of Cards" Michael Kelly. Michael bought binoculars for his kids to watch birds. "In the city" you ask! You'd be surprised. And while binoculars brings us through the interviews they tackle so much more than bird watching. Such a great episode. Please listen, subscribe, rate and review!
