Ep 4’s formerly very bald guest, Brad Morris returns to Bald Talk with tales of his yo-yo like experience with being an Alopecian and the miraculous return of his hair thanks to a yet to be named pharmaceutical drug. We would suggest, Al-NO-precia. He and Brian talk about adjusting to change, delve into the challenging issues faced by the bullying community and have their podcast skills challenged by some clunky Zoom issues. Brad also returns to help Brian dovetail nicely back to Bald Talk’s roots because sadly this seems to be the final episode for the podcast. It’s been a great run, but the time has come for Bald Talk to be quiet. On behalf of Brian, Charlie and our producer Rian, we want to thank everyone for listening to us blabber on! Stay bald everyone!

Actor, writer, and master improvisor, Roy Jenkins has lived as a bald man since his 30's, but he knew it was coming with having a very bald father. He and Brian unpack accepting the inneviatble, how being lazy about vainty allows for acceptance, and get into Roy's origen story in finding the Groundlings and his writing stint at Late Night with Conan O'Brien. The baldies discuss the nuts and bolts of survival in show business, trying to be mentally present on set, and the evils and wonders of commercials. Roy's a tall, bald and hilairous drink of water, so... bottoms up?

Actor, writer, producer, podcaster, the brilliant anf funny powerhouse that is Jessica St. Clair joins Brian for a truly bald Bald Talk. Jessica is open and candid about the mental challenges she experienced during her successful (thank god!) battle with breast cancer, which included losing a significant amount of her impressively fertile hair and freezing her eyebrows. She and Brian talk about the illogical shame that comes along with personal suffering and hardship, the importance of taking away those things that eat away at your self esteem, and learning to take a damn compliment, for f*uck's sake! She Bald Talk's first female guest in far too long and she smashes the patriarchy with her hilarious insights.

This week, it's a 90's NC indie rock scene reunion with our guest Chuck Johnson, a supremely talented guitarist, pedal steel guitairst and composer who's music has evolved from his indie rock days in NC with his band, Spatula to his John Fahey like acoustic work to his more recent lush, ambient pieces on such albums as "Basalms" and "The Cinder Grove". He is also on the 40 year balding plan, so these days he keeps his hair short and sweet. He and Brian discuss what goes into making atmospheric music that you pay attention to, how his dog Bubbles' back issues changed his musical direction, why selling out means something very different in your 40's, and Chuck plays an acoustic piece for the first time in A WHILE!

Actor, writer and amply haired producer Anders Holm of Workaholic legend is not bald, but Brian was able to stomach a chat with him anyways. Anders does have a secret about his teeth which he shares, seeks to know the effortless life of Pete Davidson, and recounts his pandemic highpoint which involved sharks and a private jet. Brian lets Anders know he is the guy dressed like Thor at the Patriarchy meetings, and confuses him with the word "teutonic".

The Bitter Buddah himself joins Bald Talk this week! Celebrated stand up comedian, podcaster and actor, Eddie has been a major part of the NY and LA comedy scene for decades. Known for his unflinchingly personal material and comedically confrontational stage persona, Eddie is actually a self-reflective sweetheart who dares to be vulnerable. He talks about losing his hair to stress as a very young man, how his comedy is his therapy, the career advice he received from Jerry Stiller and lists his top dystopian threats that seem to dominate his mind these days

Actor, musicin, improvisor and comedian Mark McConville is the baldest member of the genius improv group Superego, because he is the only bald member of Superego. But that is fine by him, because Mark is down with baldness! He discusses his bald outing story that saved him from getting what is now a now Vegas trash haircut, and how a past girlfriend's over dyed hair led him to embrace the bic and shave it off. Brian and he chat about comedy origins, creative survival and prove they are terrible at Trump impersonations. Alopecia and THE SLAP are also parsed by the two shineheads. And poor Charlie misses out on all the weird life connections he and Mark share.

Since 1998, Peter Sagal has been the host and emcee for the popular NPR series, not podcast, "Wait Wait Don't Tell Me", but it is only in the past few years that he has gone with the fully shorn look. He used to cling to his Tin Tin like tuft of hair under the delusion that there was more than met the eye. Peter proves to be a great interviewer peppering Brian with bald queries, sharing a great bald outing story and delving into his own relationship with hair loss. Peter also recounts his transition from actor to playwright to NPR game show host, and does not hold back with his disgust for our Bald Talk "lymmeryks". At least we tried!?

Diedrich Bader is an actor who’s massive resume reflects his enormous talent, despite the size of his forehead he inherited from his German ancestors. Apparently there is a region in Germany known for big foreheads?! He shares openly about his insecurities with hair loss, remembers days of Wally Ball with a young Brad Pitt, examines the hard truths about how actors are affected by their looks, and tears up about the mentor who set him on his current path. Diedrich is a class act and it was a fine Bald Talk! Maybe there is too much covid talk though, but that popular small talk subject will not seem to die.

Comedian, actor, writer, producer and proud New Jerseyite, Chris Gethard is known for his self-examining vulnerability in comedy, and he brings that same unflinching truth to his talk with Brian about his long standing widow's peak and his "weird body... even by New Jersey standards." The pair discuss career victories and failures and how hard it is to be objective about accomplishments when your survival is tied to your creative life. Chris shares about how feeling he had to keep up with folks he felt were far funnier than he, which led to him finding his voice. There is some inevitable UCB NY reminisce between the pair who were on 3 different improv groups together. And Brian gives a heartfelt apology for a relentless gaslighting bit against Chris, that while cruel and potentially soul crushing, was actually pretty funny.

As the co-host/sidekick to Conan O'Brien in all of his talk show iterations, Andy Richter has been a staple of the television landscape for almost 30 years. Andy is also a brilliantly gifted comedic actor who has appeared in numerous tv shows and films, and a podcaster with his show, The Three Questions w Andy Richter. The full pated guest chats with Brian about his brush with anxiety related hair loss during his divorce and opens up about his comparable bald spot, his insecurity about his weight. There is maybe too much covid chit chat, some admissions that their teenage daughters are teaching them how to be better humans, and some analysis of the much needed change away from the male point of view in comedy. It's a baldo and hairo having a good, old fashioned bald talk. You're welcome!
