Happy Mother's Day to my momma Jana McNeil!! She also happens to be the guest for this week! She's the reason I have such a strong work ethic and don't make excuses. Having me and my four younger sisters at such an early age, I was old enough to witness her just accept that our father's weren't going to pull their weight. She ended up putting herself through Nursing School and changing her own life through hard work and determination.   My mother is my hero and she never gives up.  She's also the reason I'm funny because she taught me to laugh things off.  I love my Momma!!!

Kevin Gidrey always finds a way. Do you?

On March 24th, 2018 the "Humor In Mistakes Podcast" was born. 16 pound' 12 ounces'. Well today is it's 2nd birthday and we couldn't be happier.  When the podcast was born, doctors told us that most podcasts don't make it to see their 1st, let alone, 2nd birthday.   Well we proved that doctor wrong!

Comedian Mike Horn is our guest this week!  We've all gotten into it with our parents but Mike's story probably beats yours.  Donovan McNeil, Andrew Gleason and Mike talk about shitty parents and what not to say to your kids.  Since none of us have kids...that we know of, our advice is probably spot on. Mike Horn talks about struggling with his self image.  Growing up he had an abusive stepmom who would always insult his weight.  He talks about how he uses over-eating as a coping mechanism when hes stressed.  The lesson of this episode is to accept the reality of a situation whether good or bad.  Because being honest with yourself allows you to fix whatever is wrong.  

Our guest for episode 63 of the Humor In Mistakes Podcast is fellow comedian Khari Reid, who used to walk around with anger that could rival the Incredible Hulk!  Khari even got mad and tried to fight a random guy on the street who said he looked like Lil John.   One. This was during the reign of the Chappelle Show! Two. Khari had dreads! ( hmmm....I wonder if Khari was wearing shades that day?) The theme of this episode is learning to focus on the things we can control. With the sudden and unexpected death of his fiance, Khari used anger and drugs as a coping mechanism.  However, during a fit of road rage, Khari was able to realize that he like who he was becoming and it was up to him to make positive changes in his life.   We hope you enjoy the episode Lil' Mistakers!

Jason is moving to Atlanta...... BUT before he leaves he decided to be interviewed by The Humor In Mistakes Podcast because if anyone knows anything about mistakes, it's Jason.  We talk about movies that make us cry, getting cheated on, and what actors can play the role of a president.  Of course, it's Morgan Freeman! Listen to Jason talk about how he got started in comedy and why he's excited to move to Atlanta. BTW, if Jason had a time machine, he would go back in time and tell himself to still be a comic! But he also said he would tell himself to skip high school so there would be a 8th educated comedian running around.  So basically... NEVER EVER GIVE Jason a time machine.
