Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Ride Sharing.  I travel a lot for work and on my random journeys, and I have even more random conversations with my Uber drivers.  I thought these delightful little slices of life would be interesting for folks to listen to.  These are recorded in cars while moving, so get ready for some travel noise and turn by turn directions.  I did some noise canceling, but left in a bit(I like the atmosphere it creates).  Let me know if you like it or if you’d change anything(Greg @ GregSowell.com).  This trip was from the Kansas City Airport(MCI) to the Boulevard Brewing Company and my driver was a local named Kevin.

Welcome to the warmup exercise for the Why Am I podcast called “the Fantasy Restaurant.”  In here my guests get to pick their favorite: drink, appetizer, main, sides, and dessert…anything goes.  Thom is on a mission to not only build an excellent meal, but educate us muggles at breakneck speed.  I may have to rewatch this a couple of times to make sure it can all sync in LOL.  I hope you enjoy this meal with Thom.

Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Why Am I, a podcast where I talk to interesting people and try to trace a path to where they find themselves today.  My guest this go around is Thom Britton from Freakshow & Tell.  I’m not quite sure, but I think he may have sold me white gloves and a ketchup popsicle to go with them LOL.  He traveled with a freakshow at 16 where he learned not only to “talk” and “turn”, how to eat fire, and swallow swords, but also had some grizzled old men teach him how to dress nice, tie a time, and talk to girls.  It sounds like this kid from nowhere found a community.  He went on to create a unique show blending freak show with science, and using it as a vehicle to show folks a piece of his soul, to share who and why he is.  I hope you enjoy this chat with Thom.

Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Why Am I, a podcast where I talk to interesting people and try to trace a path to where they find themselves today.  My guest this go around is Ana Dee or sometimes known by her alter ego Rebekka Blue.  This kid had 3 jobs by age of 14, currently owns three online stores, has 1.1M followers on tiktok, a podcaster, has a wildly successful onlyfans, and her simple goal is nothing short of full rights for sex workers…I mean what have you done today?  Ana has an incredible drive matched only by the size of her heart.  This professional goddess is a pretty awesome human.  I hope you enjoy this chat with Ana.

Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Why Am I, a podcast where I talk to interesting people and try to trace a path to where they find themselves today.  My guest this go around is Lady Pink.  Pink is known for a lot of things: she was an accomplished graffiti artist, she’s potentially a hip-hop icon as the lead in the defining movie Wild Style, BUT those are all just origin stories; she defines herself as an artist.  I quickly realized that she is a person that knows their purpose and power, so I had better not mess around, but I also learned that she adores kids and gives a LOT of herself and a lot of her time to growing and nurturing them.  I love that dichotomy; she’s my kind of people.  I hope you enjoy this conversation with Pink.

Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Why Am I, a podcast where I talk to interesting people and try to trace a path to where they find themselves today.  My guest this go around is Molly Balloons.  Imagine if you will, a 9 foot woman coming at you in the biggest balloon dress you’ve ever seen, but also wearing a 10 foot balloon crown, and sporting the biggest smile you’ve ever seen…that’s how some very lucky folks get to meet Molly for the first time!  She exudes an energy that makes me remember how anything is possible.  She says that 19 year olds remember things we’ve forgotten, but Molly hasn’t forgotten, and she’s here to remind you.  I hope you enjoy this frantically random chat with Molly.

Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Why Am I, a podcast where I talk to interesting people and try to trace a path to where they find themselves today.  My guest this go around is Spencer Crittenden.  Spencer is kind of a big deal; you might recognize him from: the Harmontown podcast where he DM’d, the show Great Minds from the History Channel, Harmonquest where he DM’d, or from his guest spot on Community as Annie’s brother.  He’s also a very polished, fight me, podcaster on the That Happens podcast.  He’s also a deep thinker who strives to precisely articulate his emotions to others; he’s actually got a mastery I’ll probably never obtain. Real quick, pause this and go to patreon.com/thesixler and become part of his community, support your favorite creators, and then enjoy this chat with Spencer.

Hey everybody, I’m Greg Sowell and this is Why Am I, a podcast where I talk to interesting people and try to trace a path to where they find themselves today.  My guest this go around is Kat Walsh.  Kat is many things: an awesome podcast host of not one, but two podcasts, an advocate of psychedelics, someone who’s uncannily articulate about their inner thoughts and workings, and she’s not alone(never alone).  I hope you enjoy this chat with Kat.
