John has a shit-eating grin on his face. Why? I think he has been thinking about naughty things he doesn’t want to say. That’s okay. We don’t want to know. OK, folks, so please remember to send us your small business ideas and buy the people you love a flash
jingle. Flaaaaaash jingle. Refer-O-Matic: https://refer.glow.fm/outcasts

John talks for a while about those people, (you know the people), who sit in restaurants long after closing and make the servers wait for them. All I can think as he does this is: Oh, nooooooo. I fear DEEPLY that that is me. DEEPLY. Am I that person who actually thinks the servers want me to be there?! Oh, noooooooo. I have definitely closed down a bar or two in my day. Oh, uh oh. I continue to learn very valuable things from Johnny every day.

Welp…this week’s episode is not brought to you by Folger’s. Coffee. Oh, man, what a wonderful jingle to revisit. This jingle actually made me feel warm and toasty when I was little.
There was something about the chord structure that made me, as a child, just want to grow up and be able to drink coffee so that I could feel like the song sounded. IS THAT NOT A GOOD JINGLE OR WHAT?! Making kids want to give their childhoods away so that they can drink coffee sooner?! COME. ON. Johnny has a mean history lesson for us all, as per usual.

This week we are talking about a small business in Fort Worth, Texas called Boopa’s Bagel Deli. The proprietor is named Holly Pills. She is a marvelous, talented, successful, ingratiating, funny and just all around awesome person to have a cold call with. Her business partner, Lisa Underwood, passed away in 2005 and Lisa’s son’s nickname was Boopa. So cute.

Friends, it’s all about kettle boiling here. I hate to break it to you, but it’s just not an authentic bagel if it’s not kettle boiled. It’s science, folks. It’s chemistry. I failed chemistry in high school. Welllllll, I got a C because the teacher liked me. This jingle was easy to write because I love Holly so much. She has remained so hopeful and hard working during the pandemic, she reminded me about how great it will be when everything has recovered.

In This Episode:

We begin with talking about what we are thinking about this week. Spoiler alert: As usual, mine is booze and John’s is some crazy train of thought. (Opposites attract, guys.) His tangent has a point, though. It always does.

This week, we talk about the classic Johnson & Johnson, Band-Aid jingle. It’s very timely as vaccinations continue to roll out. John will provide us with a brief history and discussion of the tune….Barry Manilow. John Travolta. Terri Garr. Are you enticed to listen to the full episode? I know you are.

Our biz of the week is Bubbles & Brews, Philly. It’s a small franchise owned by Tyrese and J’Nelle Lawrence that exists within a larger model called Get Cozy Bars. Being that Justin is a virtual bartender now, he is VERY excited to meet other people who are
striving to innovate the cocktail industry. This particular business is a drive-up bar. Yes. You heard this right. You tell them what you want. They have 7 kegs on tap and a full bar. They drive a fully-booze-loaded vintage piaggio ape onto the site of your event. It’s
the CUTEST DAMN BAR on the face of the planet. We are so excited to have met them and beyond happy to be featuring and ‘jingle’-ing them this week.

We are going to begin with some apologies. We have been very busy trying to improve ourselves as not only joint, small business owners and podcast makers, but also as individual small business owners now. What?! We now live, think, breathe and poo small
businesses. John has founded an audio company and I now have an online cocktail class company. This in no way means that we are taking time off from creating POD HELP THE OUTCASTS. Oh, no. If anything, we are coming back stronger with a much more efficient, more streamlined show format that is less flowery and more about heavily featuring the business of the week. Season one was great, but season two will make you want to quit your jobs and start a small business of your own. See you soon!

As always, share us with your friends! Share with five friends and get a custom flash jingle for anyone you choose. And the rewards only go up from there! Refer-o-matic!

Thanks for listening and your faith in us. We love you.

Love,
John & Justin @ PHTO

In This Episode: 

It’s that time of year, folks! This episode is a special Christmas edition. Well, it’s basically the same thing we always do, but it’s Christmas this time. Ok, so we need to get back to a certain formula moving forward. We need get back to talking about our favorite tunes and why we like them so that John can do what John does best: give you nerdy history. Please help yourself,
as a special Christmas gift, to all of these things in Episode 16: my favorite carols, John’s favorite carols, and the history attached to John’s favorite carols. Hint: It’s about Irving Berlin….who’s Jewish. Anyway, moving on.

This week's business is kind of cool. Do you all remember the end of season one? Well, if you don’t, we finished it off with a song for the Leigh Weimers Award Committee. They gave John
and I an award through the Rotary Club of San Jose. Through this meeting, we connected with the man named Jason Minsky. He is the executive director of Christmas in the Park, an annual family holiday celebration in downtown San Jose, that has been a tradition for many in Justin’s hometown of San Jose, California. He approached John and Justin about writing an original pitch for the festival. Very cool, right?! What’s even cooler? They made the festival drive-through and Covid-proof this year.

Well, Justin ended up going to the drive-through Christmas in the Park this year! He loaded his mom into the car with some burgers from 5 Guys and decided to check it out. (Thanks for the
free passes, Jason!) It was SOOO SWEET. It was a 15-20 minute drive-through of historic History Park in San Jose. First of all, there was a radio station synched to listen to on your drive that synched with the mouths of the singing characters! There were maybe a million pixel lights. Forests. Reindeer. Sleighs. Santa, (who waved at me). Pixel arches. Christmas Trees. Teddy bears. Penguins. Oh, man it was freaking beautiful. Kids were going bananas hanging
out of the sun roofs of their parents SUVs. Now, that doesn’t really sound safe at all, I know, but we were only allowed to go 2.5 MPH. So glad I was able to get there!

Happy Holidays to all, whatever you celebrate, from your guys at the Pod!

Justin is back in California. You know what that means?! Quarantine and Covid test tiiiiiiiiiiiiiime. John is in New York. OK, I want you to listen to how crazy I drive John in this episode. Listen to his voice. His job consists not only of finding meaning in my rants and having to sit through them, but also, in this episode particularly, how I never want to talk into the mic and how I never remember which episode is which. I am a major liability for John and the podcast. I have a foul mouth with a VERY annoying voice this week. I am uncouth and unhinged and easily triggered.

Okay, moving along. My Covid test was not comfortable, y’all. However, that does NOT mean you shouldn’t go get one. It felt great to do it once I was done. (Have you gotten a flash jingle yet? Get one.) Okey doke. So. We were fortunate and blessed to be invited back to V&Ts Laundry Box to interview Vincent and re-listen to our first season of jingles before sending them off to be re-mastered for our season one album. Ohhhhhhh, it’s coming, guys. It’s a’comin’.

Vincent @LaundryLikeUs is such a great guy for so many reasons. You know him from our jingle for his laundry spot, but this episode we get to hang with him and hear about what is going on in his life and with his business. He continues to stay positive and dedicate his business to hospitality, positivity and creating a great and welcoming neighborhood laundry experience and atmosphere. BUT. Drumroll, please. He has ventured into podcasting! He is launching a podcast called THE RINSE. It will showcase people he has met as customers only to discover later that they are talented artists. There are instrumentalists, rappers, singers, poets, you name it. All local Harlem and NYC talent that has been walking the neighborhood in disguise. DAMN, WHY DIDN’T WE THINK OF THIS, JOHN?! It’s an amazing idea for a podcast and YouTube channel. Thank you Vincent for having us and for all you do.

The song this week is too cool. It’s TOO COOL. But, back to my earlier point: Listen to when I ask John if he likes the opening riff. His answer is: “Sure”. I’ll translate. “Sure. Now get your
goddamned face facing the mic while you’re playing. I’ll like anything as long as you talk into the mic”. HE GETS EVEN MORE PISSED LATER. I KNEW IT! I KNEW HE WANTED TO KILL
ME THIS EPISODE.

This week is City Lights Theater Company in San Jose, California. Their executive artistic director is Lisa Malette, an awesome lady who we met working on the Leigh Weimers jingle. They give us “Thought-provoking plays and musicals, along with concerts
showcasing hot local artists.” Enjoy!!

Okay, stay with me now. In our main segment, Tim Sebastian from 10glo.com joins us. Tim is the CGO (Chief Growth Officer) at 10glo.com, a new open forum for theatre artists to promote and share their talent in a ‘white label’ YouTube type of format. Their goal is to give actors and performing artists a platform where they bypass the audition room and get their work seen directly by industry professionals.

Sign up —> https://10glo.com/  using the code “JINGLEBROS” To get some groovy free stickers as well! 

We chat with Tim about the challenges of opening a media company during the pandemic. We did the same thing, you see. BAZAAAAAM! Tim’s interview is great for other performing artists who have had to adjust to the transition of working from home. For many of us it has felt strange and unnatural, but we are trying to keep it in the context of how it will improve our work when live performance returns. PHTO show at Madison Square Garden, anyone?! (I go on a long tangent mid-interview and it’s like WTF but just try to stay with me.)

Lastly but not least-ly? Huh? We head back down to Dallas, Texas to promote a Christmas show for Uptown Players. This is a theatre in Dallas that John has worked for that is entering their 19th season. REGIONAL THEATERS ARE SMALL BUSINESSES, TOO, PEOPLE! We are writing this week for Paul J. Williams and “Sister Helen Holy’s Holiday Streaming Spectacular!” I can’t say enough great things about this performer, but I will say this: he uses his faith, his experience in the church, his love of and presence in the LGBTQIA community and his humor to bring joy, laughter and unity to the world at large. We think the world of this man’s talent.

Democracy matters, people. We discuss democracy matters while discussing how democracy matters? DO YOU SEE WHAT I DID THERE?! Hey, so, okay, you need to vote. You. That’s all we say about that. We aren’t a politics podcast.

Firstly, it’s season 2! We can’t believe we completed Season 1. Twelve great episodes! What’s the first and most exciting thing about Season 2?! Introducing Pod Help The Outcasts as a small business. We are now a small business. We make jingles. It’s what we do. What’s exciting about this is that we can make one for YOU, if you want. You do want. You know you want one. First, though, we need to know who you are. We know you are out there. But, who are you? Record yourself on a voice memo or DM us on Instagram. We will send you a special gift. Or, even better, ORDER A FLASH JINGLE. For yourself, for you mom, for your grandma, to break up with someone. For whatever.

Today, it seems, is fitness day. We have a very bro-like discussion about fitness. How’s your internal rotation? You may not know. We talk about gyms and how Justin has returned to his. Have you heard of a speakeasy gym? They are out there. How is your metabolic endurance? How is your front squat? Do you even lift, bro?! Well, all of this is kind of boring, but it’s relevant because of this week’s business...
