The Tim Weichselbaum Show

While recording episode 69 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show I decided to make it a very special episode by going for 690 minutes. This was surprisingly not as difficult as I thought it would be, because I am an expert at producing top quantity content. I was a different person by the end of it, and I learned a lot. I survived the experience but I'm still recovering physically and mentally. From episode 69 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show. Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqtvKqMhUQU

To celebrate 69 episodes I decided to go for 690 minutes straight. If you're going on a road trip to Oregon this podcast is for you! Sometimes it takes a few hours to get into the flow state. By hour seven, I was pretty warmed up. This high quantity content is for entertainment purposes only. Viewer discretion is advised.

This is marked as satire because I don't actually think all Jewish women are crazy. I make generalizations for comedic value. Not sure why I am spending time making this type of content. It's not going to help me get anywhere in life! From episode 68 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show. Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiRZE77GU-w

Taking a break from social media to focus on myself and the things that really matter. My fragile self-esteem is harmed by lack of attention, which I wasn't getting on those platforms. From episode 68 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show. Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiRZE77GU-w

I'm an old man and I want to go back to the 1950s. I started smoking to take years off my life because I want to be a good person and give back to my community. From episode 68 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show. Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiRZE77GU-w

I'm ripping off the band-aid and showing my true self without worrying about quality or perfection.

Being a narcissist is a lonely, depressing existence for about 99% of them. But the 1% who are getting everything they want are as happy as a clam. You've probably heard of them because they're famous. This episode is a regression back to how I was when I first started this podcast. No humility needed, let's get down to the bottom of what Tim, and other Jewish men really want out of life.

Moving from Chicago to Austin has enhanced my mental illness to the point where I have a split personality. I do "comedy" as a fake character named Timmy Gusto, and I do this podcast as myself. Both endeavors are proving to be a artistic failure. From episode 67 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show. Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w04gXLkwjYE

Starting out as an open miker in Austin is tough when you have to compete with a bunch of bandwagoners for stage time.

Comedians who get laughs by playing a fake character on stage should go home and not come back. It's not the 80s anymore, kids. Either learn how to get laughs as yourself, or stick to TikTok. From episode 67 of The Tim Weichselbaum Show. Full episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w04gXLkwjYE

I'm doing my best to train my brain to get its reward from the work itself, rather than the admiration that comes from it. That is probably for the best, since most of my work is not admirable. I'm happy with the progress I'm making on this podcast in terms of self-improvement, but I'm still having a hard time avoiding public embarrassment.

How the heck you gonna expect anyone else to be your fan if you aren't even a fan of yourself? That's the main subject of this episode. Motivation to be an artist has to come from within. You have to believe what you are doing is fantastic, and maybe then other people will like it too. If you don't get enjoyment out of making the art, you can't be too surprised if other people don't enjoy it, either.
