Ep.38-Tom Foolery with Fear and Deception

Talking Beards ·

2017/07/28

The Child wanted to discuss his recent surgery which led us into a conversation about dealing with fear. The conversation changed tempo when Bald Faced Josh brought up his cancer scare a decade or so ago and really took a turn for the worse as we explained the severity of The Childs procedure. I have never laughed harder as everything unfolded and we ended up with a angry Bald Faced co-host. Be sure to check this episode out as we are still using the podcast to cope with recent tragic events in

Ep.35-Blowing off Steam w/Josh

Talking Beards ·

2017/07/08

As you may notice Episode 34 is missing. Actually, there are 2 finished versions, Ep.34 and Ep34.3, that will probably not be released due to sensitivity issues, but the content of the episodes was about the loss of two young men and the impact it had on us. Bald faced Josh and I used the podcast as a way to express our feelings and get out much needed thoughts and emotions. What came across was very heartfelt and genuine and it helped us both cope with what we were both experiencing. Maybe

Ep.32-Allergies and your beard

Talking Beards ·

2017/05/11

Spring has sprung, unless you are south of The equator! The information you are about to hear can help all of you as we go into Springtime and deal with pollen and allergies. Most people suffer from seasonal allergies and have a hard time getting them under control. Each year is “the worst year” and we deal with it as best as we can. A few years ago my eyes were opened to how my beard may be effecting my allergies, in a bad way-and it was information that many of us beard growers never want

2017/04/23

How does one get into competitive beard and mustache competitions??? As the great Geauga County Maple Festival is about to kick of in Chardon OH, I reflect upon where I got my start in the beard and mustache culture. It was my first competition many years ago and lead me to many great places and to meet some great people from all over the country. I thought I would ask a couple of other Maple Fest Beard alumni to join me to talk about where they got their start and how it lead to competing

What a fun day meandering among some interesting characters and bearded folk! I meet some of the most interesting people at these types of events, I guess that is why I try to go to as many as I can and meet the people! Wizard World Comic Con came to Cleveland March 17th-19th for it’s third appearance at the Cleveland Convention Center. There were a ton of comic, sci-fi, role-playing, pop-culture, and bearded fans in attendance-it truly was a sight to see. I went down Saturday

The Whiskerina Council was just announced so I reached out to Director Jodi Mitnick to get the scoop. We were also joined by Event Liaison Amy Roberts and discussed what the newly formed Council hopes to achieve, the other appointed members, and other silly things. We bounced around in this fun conversation and covered many topics from what a Whiskerina is, where the name came from, charity work, and friendship and commodore in the bearding community. For many years the girlfriends, wives,

Ep.27-Brandon King

Talking Beards ·

2017/02/17

I have been having a real tough go at it lately. To be honest, I am frustrated with life and have been having second thoughts about continuing on with the podcast. I enjoy making the podcast for everyone to listen to but sometimes I wonder what cost it has to my personal life. It is my only outlet, my only creative endeavor that I have in my life. Being a father and husband take a lot of time up these days, much more than I anticipated. At times I feel lost in life trying to juggle

Ep.26- 101 year old ATTITUDE

Talking Beards ·

2017/02/03

Episode 26-ATTITUDE and living life... Over the past few weeks I have been noticing something a bit more around me, attitude. Attitude seems to be a major influence in life and can effect our moods, and our way of life. Attitude also influences others and tends to pull those that are like-minded in their direction, a "magnetic" kind of attraction. Sometimes a toxic attitude can pull you down a dark road, one of negativity and pain. The one end of the spectrum you may find those that emit a

2016 went out with a BANG!!! What a great first year for the podcast and all the great new people I have met because of it! With the few weeks I have taken off from producing episodes I had some time to reflect upon the year I had and try and find new ways to make better shows for the listeners. I hope 2017 finds many new beards and mustaches enjoying all these new episodes that I am excited to get out to the hairy faced people!!! I recently got together with some members of

2016 is rolling to an end. What a year it has been for the podcast and my involvement within the bearding community. When I first got involved in the bearding community about 5 years ago, I didn’t realize how involved communities and charities everyone participates in. As I wrap up the first year of The Beardcaster podcast I will end on a few events that I have attended over the past few weeks prior to the holidays. Over the past few years, Beards of The Old Northwest, Steel City Beards and

Write here... There is one night a year when the mythical creature known as the Krampus comes out. It is called Krampusnacht and happens on December 5th. Though the event I attended happened a few days earlier, I found myself at Annabell's in Akron Ohio for their annual KRAMPUSNACHT which found a gaggle of Krampuses, or also maybe refered to as a pride of Krampi, parading down the mean streets of Akron

Talking Beards ·

2016/11/13

Bald faced mortal, Josh, and I sit down with The Child to talk the Cleveland Indians in the World Series and Donald Trump amongst other things. The conversation began with us going over the Cavaliers Championship and which would have been more important, the World Series win by the Indians, or the Championship from the CAVS. Finding out what it is to be American and our preference in pie or cake, we learn that Rey, from Star Wars, is inspiring a whole movement of little girls to be great, not

2016/10/29

In this election year of 2016, our country faces one of the worst political showdowns in the history of America. Each candidate seems to only be fueling a fire of rage from their opponent and doing nothing but throwing punches and accusations at each other. The media seems like it only wants to be the ringleader of this 2 person circus and only focus on what these two clowns are wanting to do to our country. Our great country seems to almost be at it's darkest hour, hope is bleak, faith in
