August Was Crazy

August Was Crazy

It is 11:18 PM on Friday, and this is really the first chance I have had to sit down and watch TV or anything in a couple of weeks. To say I am exhausted is an understatement. And it runs the gamut —  physically, mentally, and emotionally. I know thing will ease once...

Trying To Be Patient About Being Impatient

Well, it’s Friday and another episode of The Jason Durden Show is out. This week I talked with Paste Magazine TV Editor and Critic Allison Keene. It was a fun conversation and I think you’ll find it very interesting if you’re a fan of television. I had thought I hit a...

Obviously I am not very good at putting up a new Behind The Mic post on any sort of regular basis. Maybe that’ll change and maybe it won’t. Who knows. Does anyone know where the year has gone? I can’t believe it is already the middle of 2021. Time just flies by as you...

Dad, liquor, and crickets

  Happy Friday! It’s Father’s Day weekend and I hope you get to enjoy a nice weekend with your dad. Or kids. Or both. My dad, William, passed away in 2001 at age 69 after some health problems. I, and many other people, miss him all the time. We actually just...
