This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the Secondhand Talent interview of live looper and beatboxer extraordinaire, Brian Meslar, a.k.a. "B-Sticky"!!!
This is Brian Meslar, a.k.a. B-Sticky! A beatboxer/looper extraordinaire as well as a true renaissance man of the performing arts.
B-Sticky has been and still is his own lighting, effects, marketing, audio whiz onstage and in-studio, producer, teacher, and agent for 10+ years as he has relentlessly stormed the barricade that is entering the entertainment industry, looking for entry points in every corner. Through all his efforts in the realm of performance and entertainment, he has learned the work and full commitment that goes into every. single. angle.
Where B-Sticky’s efforts have landed him thus far is doing work and making art that has had the most overwhelmingly positive audience responses! Audiobook Narrating/Engineering has become his main line of work, while he has been pouring commitment into his Beatbox/looping music performance. Both have had regular moments of audience members urging B-Sticky to never stop doing what he does. Now- over 150+ audiobooks and countless beatbox performances later… he is finally just starting to feel like he is scraping the surface of mastery.
Even though getting recognition enough to turn the passions into a full time job has been tricky thus far- B-Sticky has not hesitated. With some of his biggest concerts/shows being fully self-orchestrated, he will keep creating performance art and enriching the lives of those who grace him with their attendance, knowing the rest of the world will catch on before too long. Until then, he will curate impeccable vibes and celebrate his art every step of the way!

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the Secondhand Talent interview of Mike Palma!
Mike Palma was born and raised in Chicago and has spent the last 2 decades dedicated to a prolific and creative career in music, entertainment and the arts all across the world. Since 2009, Mike has been playing shows, building rad art, and creating music with his ever-expanding network of friends, producers, musicians, and artists.
For the last 23 years, funk music has been Mike's lifeblood. Over the past year in Medellin, Colombia (at the time of this taping) he has been writing and recording his own original album of, as he calls it, "Booty-shakin’ funk with ‘tude". The album release is planned for 2025, to be followed by a live tour.
Mike has performed, recorded, and toured with dozens of Chicago-area groups over the years including: Local Motive, Firago, AfroZep, Stan P Band, EGI, and Shady Grady
Mike's art career abruptly shifted into third gear when he became deeply involved in managing the construction of the effigy for Lakes of Fire in 2014. In 2015, Mike got the call from Anarchitype Productions founder AJ Tarzian to work on large art builds for parties and events. This led to the opportunity to design and build-out the Emporium Arcade Bar "Pop-Up" space in Logan Square, building over 20 themes over the course of a year and half, most notably the Stranger Things pop-up build in August of 2017, which garnered massive attention from the public as well as prominent local and National publications such as: Vice, the Eater, and People Magazine.
Mike continues to work occasionally with Anarchitype Productions as well as other organizations to design/build large-scale experiential, immersive and interactive art installations. Some of Mike's most recent experience includes Kitty Kat Island, a city replica DJ stage with 30-ft laser cat (Love Burn Miami, Feb 2023) and as a principal artist for last month’s flagship Lumenaura Festival (City of Aurora, Oct 2024).Support the show

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the second part of the Secondhand Talent interview of legendary bouncer, The Big Fish!
I want to tell y’all a Little story about The Big Fish… and we’ll tell it as it is - a moshel, as we say in Yiddish - a parable.
His grandfather, The Great Fish, once asked Big Fish a question, when he was still relatively Little. The Great Fish was from the old country, one of the first off the boat from what is now Ukraine. A tough Jew that survived the annihilation of his Shtetl when the Cossacks cleaned house on the Czar’s resources before the Bolsheviks could get their hands on the horses they raised. (add Ed. note - read “Animal Farm”)
The Great Fish knew the Little Fish wasn’t like the other kids in the family. He was quiet, reserved, and unflappable. He would do things the other kids wouldn’t, because he could keep his mouth shut and absorb any consequences.
The Great Fish, as he pointed at the Little one's forehead, asked: “If you are asked the question, can you say ‘yes’?”
The Little Fish just looked at him, sitting in his Queen Anne chair with his legs crossed, without an answer. The Great Fish struck fear into as many people as he helped when the coin was flipped.
__________
As a bouncer, that question worked out for The (now) Big Fish. For he learned: “all he had to do to fit a stereotype also defines what fair play is”. For, after three mostly fucked-up decades, he had a settling: No more tough guy shit. It’s better to be endearing and sincere. To help the underdog without question.
As his work is glued to getting musicians and their fans a deeper cut, The Big Fish’s efforts have evolved into the humanity of it all. If someone makes music, that is what they need to be doing. If The Big Fish’s efforts to get them paid what keeps them on stage and not stuck in a job they hate that keeps them from making music, then he will shakedown whomever he has to to make sure the musicians stay on stage doing what they love.
Since he doesn’t give a fuck about personal affirmation for doing his job, he’ll save that shit until we talk. A personal conversation has more gravity in this world than a photo-op. The more we talk, the more we learn.Support the show

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the Secondhand Talent interview of artist Matt Leunig!
Scraped Knee originally was the name of a series of zines and comic books created by founder Matt Leunig and in 2006 eventually became the name of the overall studio. Early on, work consisted mostly of screenprinted gigposters for touring bands and comic books but has since grown into all fields of illustration. His work has appeared in numerous publications, video games, music videos, art galleries, etc..
After a transient childhood overseas growing up in the Middle East & Greece, Matt landed in the Bay Area and spent 8 years working in the video game industry while illustrating on the side. Scraped Knee became a full time studio in 2010 & with the freedom of working from anywhere came the ability to uproot and travel.
After a brief 3 year stint in India & Washington DC the studio couldn’t help itself and had to return back to the Bay Area where it blossomed for 5 years in Oakland, CA.
As the studio grew, so did his family and seeking a change of pace (and space) the studio moved to the Dirty South in 2018. Scraped Knee currently is a proud Atlanta, GA business!

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the Secondhand Talent interview of artist Scotty Radford!
Scotty Radford is an artist based in East Tennessee and work as an artist and as a graphic designer. He enjoys traveling, live music, family and friends. Early on, Scotty knew that he would need to use his creativity as a means to support himself, but wasn't sure what the best avenue to achieve that goal was.
Eventually, design presented itself as a form of art and communicating that could potentially be paid for and a living made out of. The communication and problem solving aspect of design were very appealing to Scotty, as he went to East Tennessee State University and majored in Art & Design, as well as minoring in Fine Art & Digital Media.
After college, Scotty began graphic design and became quite proficient. However, for a traditional artist, the business box was just not going to cut the chut when it comes to creative expression. As with so many people in our industry, covid and 2020 brought with it a whole slew of changes including a rediscovery of love for making rock poster art.
Scotty has been creating art professionally now since 2021 and considers himself quite fortunate to be doing what he loves. Scotty, we’re fortunate to have you on the show!

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you our expansive interview with Scherre Tucker, aka Shady Business. "Scherre is an independent merch slanger, bassist, stagehand, and positive vibes technician. Since 2011, she has been involved with live music in one capacity or another. From playing bass in bands local to her beloved Tulsa, to traveling with national acts as a merch seller, to running large stages at various independent festivals, Shady has made a dedicated effort to keep herself surrounded by what makes her happy: music and the joy it brings.
In 2014 she moved to Eureka Springs, AR to assist her mentor, the legendary Ma Dank, with day-to-day tasks. Ma’s legacy continues to be a guiding light in Shady’s work ethic and overall outlook on life. These two share a zest for life that is infectious and rare. Although she passed
away in 2020, Ma travels with Shady to every show she attends.
A brief hiatus from music in 2016 saw Scherre protesting for human and water rights at Standing Rock. Never one to sit idly by, she is always on the move, and always working hard to fiercely defend what she believes in; fairness, equality, and joy.
After a difficult year of loss, life-changing surgery, and introspection in 2020, Shady resolved herself to make the most of every moment, and pursue her passion of travel and music. Since then, she has worked full time selling merch on the road with many bands. Most of these bands
are in the bluegrass/folk/roots scene (which is not the type of music you'll typically hear in her headphones). She enjoys seeing new parts of the country, meeting new people, and sharing in the joy that the ever-present music brings her and others. Shady is as sweet as they come, but furiously protective of her people, and she will cut you.
She is a well-oiled machine that runs on sausage biscuits, menthol cigarettes, and postcard hunting.
Has van. Will travel. Available for hire."

Welcome to Season 4, Episode 4, of "Secondhand Talent: The Podcast"!!! We're so happy we're here and so, so incredibly grateful for all of your love and support along the way. On behalf of all of us here at Secondhand Talent, Steiner & Steener - WE LOVE YOU, FRANDS!!!
This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you our expansive interview with David Kozin. David is the founder of no sides records no sides records is a Chicago DIY record label started in 1997. Label CEO David Kozin likes refer to it as a "mini-major" label because the vast array of major bands and artists on the roster, coming from many different genres and also many different parts of the United States and abroad. Early releases from the No Sides record label were from Portland Oregon spazz-punk legends Tuman's Water, Detroit Michigan hooch parlor cabaret duo Terror At The Opera, Chicago nu wave of superband Miss High Hell, and Twig Harbor of experimental electronics duo Nautical Almanac.
In 2003, the label released the VGM mixtape "#8" compilation CD, showcasing chiptune and video game music bands and composers from around the world. In 2005, David began full-time studies at Northeastern Illinois University and No Sides records releases started to become more infrequent, less professionally produced, and with many of the regional and national music distributors going out of business in rapid succession at the time, they became much more difficult to obtain outside of Chicago. After years of school, post-grad poverty, near feral insanity, bed bugs, and a book about Ike Turner published in 2018, the label was basically done and what was left was a stone's throw away from the trash heap.
Suddenly, sadly, in January 2022 came the tragic announcement of the death of the frontman of Miss High Heel, and, more famously, To Live And Shave In LA, Tom Smith. When he passed away from cancer, it shook the avant-garde music community and shattered the ice within David and No Sides Records was reborn. By the years end, the label put out 14 releases on cassettes and CDs, which is more releases in one year than any of its 5-year period in its prior history.
Cut to now and the label will be releasing no less than 18 records in 2024, including albums by: one-man-band performer The Lonesome Organist. Chicago Punk legends Silver Reviews, free-jazz saxophonist Paul Flaherty, classical pianist Charles Joseph Smith and dungeon synth slayer Alkilith.

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you the Secondhand Talent interview of juggler and soundboard extraordinaire Tim Dingus!
Juggling, Magic and Comedy, the trio of stage and screen that just keeps giving. Tim “Juggling” Dingus has mastered the art of mixing all three, and with some help from friends, he’s showing the world what exactly a juggler is capable of. Spoiler alert: There isn’t much one can do once they’ve spent most of their time and energy learning to juggle, but hey - it’s fun to watch!
Tim is well prepared for roles both on the stage, and behind the curtain. In Tim's show "Tricks for Friends", enter a world of wonder, merriment and laughter where everyone walks away a part of the experience. This is the experience where you are a part of the show! Alternatively, if you’re on the stage, allow Tim to support your needs as an artist. He has worked in a number of historic venues, and for multiple award winning musical groups.
It's time to light the lights, and turn up the band! He is available to either entertain your audience as a magician or juggler, or enhance their entertainment experience as a live sound engineer. That's right, he's no one trick pony!!!

This week we have the pleasure of releasing to you Part Two of the expansive and wide-ranging Secondhand Talent interview of drummer legend and extraordinaire: the one-and-only Ron Bruner Sr.!!!
Ron Bruner Sr., a native of Compton California, is one of the most notable drummers on the L.A. freelance music scene. He has over 40 years of live, session and studio drumming and has played and / or recorded with The Temptations, Gladys Knight, the Supremes, jazzer Gary Bartz and Diana Ross - to name just a few. Ron started the Miles Davis 70's tribute band “Strange Jazz Universe” some 17 years ago, with the understanding that “Music is ever evolving” - something Miles taught us and that Ron carries with him.
Ron Sr. also had his own band, Chameleon, a “disco fusion” group who in 1979 dropped an album on Elektra Records that was produced by longtime James Brown trombonist Fred Wesley. He is the quintessential “veteran of the scene” who turned his focus towards the future. His 3 sons, Ron Jr., Stephen a.k.a. “Thundercat”, and Jameel, are now each award-acclaimed musicians in their own rights.
