  • Read It And Weep
    One of the funniest podcasts out there

    If you're like me you hate things that suck, and there are a lot of things that suck out there in the world. Thankfully, Read It And Weep is there to dish it out to the crappy pop fiction that deserve it the most. Twilight, The Lost Symbol... The Notebook.... They all had it coming. Listen and enjoy!
  • RedHotJazz Podcast
    RedHotJazz Podcast

    Best Jazz of the 1920's and 1930's can be heard on this podcast!
  • The Hell Hole Tavern
    belladonna

    Good story lines, but you really shouldnt read them yourself. Your to monotone and it makes it hard to listen to
  • Satan and The Lord Show
    A new kind of Comedy Show

    What a wonderful and creative show! Really great to hear someone breaking the rules of the regular old trends.
  • Film Flim Flam
    Fantasic and wonderful!

I teach music and play piano. Occasionally someone pays me for it. I'm getting a Ph.D. in Music Education with a concentration in Piano Pedagogy at the University of Oklahoma. I'm also a member of MTNA (Music Teachers National Association). Audio Podcasts are made through GarageBand 2.0 on my Powerbook G4. Video Podcasts are in Quicktime h.264 and created with a Sony MiniDV Handycam and iMovie. I'm originally from Cherry Hill, NJ. My other degrees are from Temple University in Philadelphia. I was Coordinator of Class Piano for Temple's Music Prep program in addition to teaching at the Haddonfield School of Performing Arts.
