The MayNERD Files: Recent Episodes
Josh
I cruise the streets of AZ on a Scooter and Interview people. We will geek out over pop culture radness or current events. Mostly, I look to unearth facts about my guests seeing as how they are all interesting people. It’s a roll of the dice. Oh, and each interview is recorded on glorious analog audio cassette (appreciate the hiss) because retro is cool and I’m older than I look. Thank you for your support and I hope you all enjoy the show! Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/themaynerdfiles/support

Greetings, Gentle Listeners! Long time, no talkies. That is obviously my fault, for sure. Allow me to make it up to you. This week's guest needs no introduction because introductions are for Tolkien books and a slew of really overdone made-for-tv movies. I got to sit and have one-too-many with my guest Izzy who is THE morning voice of ALT AZ 93.3. As you will hear, we go into a hurricane of topics that had me (and most of the patrons of the bar we were in) blushing. I would say things went off the rails, but who am I kidding. That's what makes my podcast fun and my therapy bills expensive.
We cover a good amount of ground in this here episode so, sit back, enjoy a drink or seven and enjoy!

My guest Bourke Floyd and I go off on so many tangents it will make your head spin. Bourke Floyd got his start acting in the most excellent 90's film, "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and it all went uphill from there. Or....Up a creek you could say. Good times are had, drinks are had, side conversations are had......I can't think of anything that I would've missed.
Enjoy!

On this episode of The MayNERD Files I am given the distinct pleasure of speaking with my guest, Kurtis Skinner. Kurtis is the dude responsible for my incredibly rad MayNERD Files soundtrack. We talk about film scoring, working with Synths and garage band etiquette. I may drop a couple lame jokes, too.
Kurtis is a musical genius from Seattle who has been spending most of his life playing music in some form or another. He has scored feature films as well as short films. His upcoming musical project is his band, Dual Analog which will no doubt be amazing.

Today I sit with Nathan Blackwell. Sorry, SIR Nathan Blackwell (?) We talk alot about being an independent filmmaker, writer, director and overall solid movie buff. we discuss the success of the web series, Voyage Trekkers and just how important recipe analogies can be. Thank you for tuning in and enjoy!
Nathan began his career like many of his counterparts ... a manic eleven year-old running around with a camera, making terrible movies. He's since directed two low-budget feature films, four web series, nearly fifty shorts, and won forty awards for film making. In addition to his narrative work Nathan, also directs commercial and corporate video, for which he's won six Phoenix ADDY awards. He was profiled by the New Times as one of Phoenix's 100 Creatives, and his work has been featured on Ain't It Cool News, LA Weekly, and MovieMaker Magazine. His main non-film hobby is cooking, and really only pasta to be perfectly honest.

Welcome to Season 2, my people! On this episode I sit down in a one on one with Ace Cross Crook, Tik Tok Influencer (4 million followers) and content producing powerhouse. I don't know if we really hit any good topics but I do know that it is a thoroughly entertaining episode seeing as how I left the volume down on my microphone for the first part of the interview. Good thing I know how to project, eh? This is a crispity, crunchity episode filled with nougat. Ok, there is no nougat. What do you want from me?!?! Enjoy!

On Today's cast I am graced with the presence of P-Body, Artist, bassist for the band Elvis Before Noon, DJ, horror movie aficionado AND he even wore a Van Halen shirt to the interview! Tell me that is not rad! We reminisce about the glory days of Tempe, AZ's music heyday while suckin' on adult beverages. Are you going to learn anything from this? Chances are good, maybe.
Mr. P-body is an artist living and performing primarily in Arizona because he has committed himself to enhancing Phoenix nightlife. He’s most well known as a veteran DJ and musician but has also worked as a promoter and producer of fashion shows. To add more, graphic design and website construction are also examples of his affinity for creative endeavors. P-body is currently the bassist with the band Elvis Before Noon, studying photography and attempting to survive the state of our nation with his 9 year old daughter Jasmine and a male cat named Lolita (Huh? It’s a long story…) www.mrpbody.com www.elvisbeforenoon.com

On today's episode my guest, Carrie Guy and myself discuss the importance of mental health plus suicide prevention and awareness. Plenty of resources are mentioned in the show and ways you can hopefully feel better in these uncertain times.
Resources: Association For Suicide Prevention: https://afsp.org/ National Suicide Prevention Hotline: 1-800-273-8255 Mental Health America: https://www.mhanational.org/ International Association for Suicide Prevention: https://www.iasp.info/resources/Crisis_Centres/
Carrie Guy is a 42yo crusader for mental health. After a devastating loss to suicide in 2011, Carrie founded an event in small town Central IL to spread awareness, fight stigma, and raise money for Suicide Prevention. Following the success of the first event, Carrie & her family realized the healing power of helping, and made the event an annual one. The V Run for Suicide Prevention has raised over $100,000 for the cause. Proceeds from the event go to The American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (AFSP) and Mission 22 (for Veteran Suicide Prevention). Being a language nerd, Carrie asks that everyone considers using the term “died by suicide” when describing this tragedy rather than the traditional “committed”- this shift in language is comforting to many of us who have lost someone this way. For a wealth of resources, visit AFSP.org

Rachel Camacho-McKee: Illustrator, Animator, Maker of Cute Things! I'm also a D&D nerd with many hours of playing under my belt, and I still don't fully know what I'm doing, in life or in the game. But I'm going to continue to have a good time while I'm here! You can usually find me posting my artwork to Instagram/Twitter/Facebook, or knee deep in one of the following video games: Among Us, Diablo 2, Terraria, GTA V, wow the list is getting longer than I originally thought, there are more games but I'm done listing them. I only slightly miss being out in the world, but I also really like my husband and my computer and my dog and my house, so I'll just keep hanging out in our game cave for the rest of forever!

This episode allows me to dig deep with the amazing photographer, Joy Ludwig. Good times ensue, as always while we discuss the weather which turns out to be cloudy with a chance of Russian Mob. Enjoy!
Joy Leonard Ludwig is from Washington state. In her own words: Married and moved to Alaska, then Germany for a decade, came back in 2011 moved several times then went back to college a second time to finish my BA. While in Phoenix I became deeply involved with the film community. They welcomed me in and helped me grow! Those connections grew my network, craft and understanding of how to be a cinematic storyteller. Directing was a natural progression of that passion. My first serious short film, Sam, screened at several festivals and was selected for Best Director at the World Wide Women’s Festival located in Phoenix, Arizona, in 2019. Now in my last semester and graduating in Dec 2020, I’m excited for my next chapter!

Today I interview Paul DeNigris and we go on so many tangents, you will forget what the hell we were talking about...Because I think we did....Maybe.
I know that we concluded that Dark Horse Comics should have been in charge of the Alien sequels.

Paul's body of work combines a passion for storytelling with a mastery of digital filmmaking technologies, and ranges from epic computer-generated adventures to intimate character portraits, from short comedies to feature-length film noir, and from commissioned video art installations to surreal rock and roll fantasies.

Many of Paul’s former students can be found in Hollywood working on productions like Ender's Game, Under the Dome, Castle, Avatar, The Avengers, The Wolverine, Pacific Rim and many, many more. Paul is now Professor of Post-Production in the New American Film School at Arizona State University.
