I'm a sucker for other people's pain.

About Me


I have a blast doing what I do.
I host a show called Distorted View Daily. For 30 minutes each day I present to you strange, gross, twisted nuggets from the bowels of the Internet: Semen-snorting crackwhores? Check. Porn stars vomiting up chicken-nuggets? Check. Ladies strangling men with their thighs? Check. The sounds are vividly crystal clear. I like to consider myself a curator of the unsavory. I also present real news stories complete with my inappropriate commentary. Yes, it's crass, vulgar, and childish. But for 30 minutes a day, take a vacation from being a compassionate upstanding citizen and laugh at the stuff you're not supposed to laugh at. After listening, it'll make you feel much better about your own life. That's DV.
Don't know what a podcast is? It's like a radio show but it can be sent automatically to your iPod (or computer, or mp3 player) so you'll always have new stuff to listen to. Each show is in mp3 format so you can play it just like you'd play a song. You can also download the shows from my website , or listen to it right here on Myspace.
Read all about Distorted View, it's history, the awards we've won, the awards we've lost, etc, over at Wikipedia.
You should be over 18 to listen to this audiophonic trainwreck.
The show is available via iTunes for free! Click here to check it out.
Now about me: When I'm not doing my show, I'm pretty laid back. I enjoy making fun of people in bars. I love watching trash TV with my friends while we shout at it. Always looking for new ways to make an ass out of myself. If you can make me laugh, I'm yours 4ever. Bonus: I'm incredibly awkward and anti-social. I'm a total contradiction. I'm a huge nerd but not bright enough to be a WEALTHY nerd.
