Happy Halloween, and so long for now. Season 3 may be delayed into 2020 because I'm working on another project. Thanks for listening!

I had so many ghost stories from guests this year, I had to split up the Halloween episode in to TWO parts! How sweet is that?! Part 1 features contributions from Leah Ottman, Sarah Bizek, Ted Held, Regan Smith, Taylor Baldry, and Tim Lovett. Stay tuned for Part 2 in the coming weeks.

Luke is an author, artist, songwriter, and musician. The two of us met a number of years ago, likely at the 400 Bar. We spend a bit of time talking about the late Tom Sullivan. Peace be with you, Tom. Books: https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/15314834.Luke_Adam Music: https://store.cdbaby.com/artist/LukeZimmerman **This is the final episode of Season 2. Stay tuned for the Halloween Spectacular in October.

This week, we're back to the traditional format of Adult Friends. My good friend Ted and I had a chat about all things under the sun (which explains the run time). Ted is in one of my favorite local bands, Wizards Are Real: https://wizardsarereal.bandcamp.com/.  

Long before Aric and I met, I was a fan of his improv troupe, The Mustache Rangers. This Friday (June 7, 2019) at 7:30pm at Strike Theater in Minneapolis, go see the Mustache Rangers perform during the fundraiser for Huge Theater. Aric is also a contributor to another of my favorite improv teams in town, ShowX (Monday nights at Huge Theater).  Aric and Levi had me on as a guest to their podcast, Regret Labs, a couple years back: https://noisepicnic.com/our-lovely-podcasts/regretlabs/pitch-perception-podcast ... but we mostly talk about Aric's experience adopting a daughter. 

Kate and I have run in the same music circles for a number of years (big surprise). Now, Kate and I have both chosen career paths in and around the world of healthcare. Kate's story involves small joys embedded in a web of complicated connections. 

Jon and I met more than 10 years ago through Willie's American Guitars, but we just recently connected the dots between our respective adoption stories.

Leah is a fantastic musician, hilarious, and a great person to have over to your house for a podcast. She also happens to be adopted. http://www.thehomesteadrecords.com/lott

Sarah and I met during the Minneapolis Fringe Festival in 2006, but we haven't seen much of each other since then. Sarah has a great story... take a listen.

Pat and I were having a discussion among friends at the CC Club a couple months ago, when it came to our attention that both of us are/were/continue-to-be adopted. I've only hung out with Pat on one other occasion, but we had a lovely chat. http://www.itspattracy.com/
