AI. It's everywhere you turn and maybe places that you have not turned yet. Skynet Paul and I get right into it and discuss all the ways that AI could help us, steal our creativity or even ruin our lives.

We share Joey Ramone stories, Reminisce about 900 numbers and discuss the single best business idea of all time...oh, and it turns out that AI wants to F***. We hope you enjoy.

Are there any true punks?

It's the late 1600's and you find yourself dissatisfied with your position in life so you decide that you want to recruit an army of Pirates and steal $400M from the rulers of India. After pulling off that enormous crime, you do what almost no other pirate has ever done: You avoid the law and disappear with all the money, never to be heard from again.

This is a true story of the most successful pirate that you have never heard of. So, put on your eye patch, get yourself a rum punch while sporting a peg leg take and a Parrot on your shoulder and take a listen. You just may learn something about a unique character from an extremely crazy period of time.

We love people who turn their passion into a profession and tonight on the No Outlet Podcast we pay tribute a TV GIANT who recently left this plane of existence, of course I am talking about Marty Krofft, one half of the insanely prolific team Sid and Marty Krofft!

In the dazzling landscape of television entertainment, few visionaries have left as indelible a mark as Marty Krofft. A luminary in the realm of children's programming, Marty, along with his brother Sid, pioneered a new era of imaginative and whimsical television that continues to captivate audiences across generations.

On this episode of the No Outlet Podcast, we revel in his creative genius which took flight in the 1960s and 1970s and we explore how his brave choices tested the boundaries during a time when the landscape of television was evolving. We take a deep dive into The Krofft brothers' unique productions, including their iconic shows including "H.R. Pufnstuf", "Land of the Lost," and several other staples of childhood memories for millions (including me!)

We analyze the genius that set Marty apart from his TV peers including his ability to envision and create enchanting worlds where imagination knew no bounds.

Beyond the technical marvels, Marty Krofft infused his productions with a timeless sense of joy and optimism. His work embraced the universal language of laughter and taught valuable life lessons through characters that became beloved household names. The enduring popularity of his shows speaks not only to their initial success but also to the enduring spirit of creativity and joy that Marty brought to the industry.

So come take a ride with us and rediscover (or discover for the first time) the magical genius of Marty Krofft!

What a year we had on the No Outlet Podcast...wow!

We love positive people here on the No Outlet Podcast. By extension, we truly respect and admire those who focus on solutions instead of problems. Those who don't get caught up in what has not been done for them but or may not be perfectly set up for them. Instead, they simply keep their focus on what they are trying to achieve and continuously move towards it.

Juan Matias is our guest tonight and he is exactly that type of person. His story is inspirational and should serve as a template to everyone facing any type of challenges in their life. Tonight we dive into his journey from leaving the Dominican Republic, entering a High School in NYC not speaking a word of English (Chemistry Class no less!) to graduating as a salutatorian and heading off to college a few years later.

On top of that he is a kind, thoughtful and funny guy who is fun to be around and always seems to be in a good mood. Proof positive that no matter what you think about where you are and how rough you may have it…you can work through and past anything! Thank you for coming on the show, we hope you all enjoyed the conversation as much as we did!

Last year I lost my Father shortly after Fathers Day. He had been sick for a long time and I knew his time here was limited. He was a major role model in my life (as Fathers tend to be) and I wanted him to know how much he meant to me and how much he impacted my life for the better. So, I recorded a podcast highlighting stories about him and sharing some insight into how much he meant to me. Thankfully, he was able to listen to it and sent me a text after saying simply: "Thanks E, I needed that" and then, about a week later, he was gone. He may be gone but he will never be forgotten. What better time to revisit how I feel about my Dad then on Fathers day? Being a Dad is complicated, challenging, confusing and yet, sometimes, extremely rewarding and certainly impactful. So, with that backdrop, "Happy Father's Day" to all Fathers out there and here's to you Dad...I think about you every day and still think to myself WHHHD?

We talk about the Reggae Garden and how it came about, what artists will be performing, what people can expect when they arrive, the origin story of the Green Lion Crew, the international travels to create music, working with the Upsetter!, we clear up the long sands/short sands debate, identify the best place(s) to get Pizza in southern Maine, his first reggae concert, he provides his Mount Rushmore of Reggae Records, he gives us his favorite musical concert of all time, we discuss the genius of Curb your Enthusiasm, his favorite place to create music and the irrefutable fact that interdimensional beings are living all around us among many other topics. We really enjoyed having him on the show and we hope you enjoyed the conversation as much as we did!

Tonight we are lucky to have Ryan Reed on the show from High Striker Farm which is an award-winning Cannabis cultivation company based right in Maine...and he is also a sponsor of the event.

In addition to discussing the wonder of the reggae garden, we also discuss the origin of the High Striker name, his deserted island product, his mount Rushmore of stoner movies, the first time he was caught smoking weed (CLASSIC!), his first concert, his favorite TV show, how he got into Cannabis cultivation, why no till/organic cultivation is his preferred method, the wisdom of Sadhguru, the genius of Cheech and Chong and how Tommy Chong got screwed by the legal system among many other topics!

Oh my oh my oh my...you think you know juice but do you know COLD PRESSED Juice? More to the point, if you are looking to keep all the vitamins and enzymes that are inherent to fruits and vegetables then there is really only one juice that will deliver that to you and that is COLD PRESSED Juice. Our guest tonight has been making Cold Pressed Juice for over 8 years and was kind enough to play 20 questions with us. We discussed her market research process, the equivalency of Jazz and recipe creation, where to find her juice near you, her super famous celebrity customer, what fruit has the best personality, which vegetable is most difficult to kill, the health benefits of Cold Pressed Juice, the current line up of flavors, her Mount Rushmore of produce, her favorite music concert ever, her favorite TV show, she attempts (unsuccessfully) to defend the evil nature of Cats, tells us about Bottles being her livelihood and the struggle to be green, she is kind enough to give us her Deserted Island flavor and tells everyone how to find out more about Everyday Boost...oh and she will be vending all summer long at the https://www.reggaegarden.me/ ! Thank you for coming on the show and we hope you enjoyed the conversation as much as we did!

Big show tonight folks, and yes, its another first!…we love comedy in all formats and tonight's guest is helping to bring comedy to as many people as possible. How can you not love that!? Stephan Francescone is an up and coming comedian and produces comedy shows in the New England area through his company Geraputo Comedy. In that capacity, he has worked with and booked many regional sensations with an overall goal of highlighting the immense comedic talent that New England has to offer. In coordination with Mark Moccia Comedy, Erin Feeley and Blend Comedy he is helping to produce and present the FIRST EVER Seacoast Comedy Festival https://seacoastcomedyfest.com/ in June 2023. This festival is designed to highlight comedians in New England. They focus on elevating local, up and coming comedians and help to showcase everything the seacoast has to offer! We talked about the cruel (yet funny) origin of his company name, how/why he got into to stand up, his support for Karaoke as the art for it is, the reasons why NE has so many funny people, his dream game show, his opinion on prop comics, gives us all the details on the upcoming Seacoast Comedy Festival, the first movie that turned on his sense of humor (you will be surprised), his dream location to perform, he provides his Mount Rushmore of comics, weighs in on the UFO phenomenon, definitively states what language is the most aggressive and helps to make an argument for Comedy being the actual oldest artform. Thank you for coming on the show and we hope you all enjoyed the conversation as much as we did!

Well it is another first on the No Outlet Podcast folks! Artificial Intelligence or AI is creeping into our lives like a Ninja in a Chuck Norris movie and there is not much we can do about it. Instead of pretending like its not happening or assuming to understand what it is all about we figured we would go right to the source and interview the AI Superstar known as CHAT GPT.

All answers are directly from the programed mind of the fastest growing application in history and they may surprise you. We recently received a large grant to fund a Text to Voice platform but (as the first answer shows) it was not the most successful purchase so we ditched the recently purchased gadget and simply read the answers.

Full disclosure, my mind is still somewhat located in Mexico so I had a few vocabulary challenges but we made it through! We asked our AI friend about The Jeep Wave, the most influential comedians, Hummingbirds as Pets, Annoying Driving habits, Best TV Shows, The dangers (and benefits) of Alcohol, vs Coffee, it weighs in on Karaoke as an Olympic Event, shares its thoughts on interdimensional beings, answers back to back Brady Bunch Questions, defines the importance of Honey Bees and talks bout how Improv can save the world among many other super important topics.

So what do we learn? While AI in its current state has a long way to go before it can answer questions "like a human" it is interesting to see glimmers of thoughts being strung together and the speed at which improvements can be made will yield many advancements in the coming years. The fact is that we could not have had this type of conversation with a computer a year ago and that is impressive and somewhat horrifying at the same time.

To all the Non-AI listeners out there...hang on to what it means to be human and never let go! Thank you for listening and be well!
