I've been very lucky to have so many people selflessly helping me throughout my life. One such person is Alison Schelin. She was kind enough to drive me through New England, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware over the summer. We tried to finish these podcast episodes while driving up north to see Dave Attell, but unfortunately ran out of time. So I ended up finishing the last portion of an episode by myself. While you're hearing this podcast, Alison will be traveling across the country by herself...

This native Bostonian wants to continue her career in music in Los Angeles. She is a very talented singer and lyricist, and her raspy voice reminds me of Janis Joplin's. Here's a sample of Alison's musical talent:
