Julia Gargano never sang professionally, auditioned for this season's American Idol. Made it through Hollywood Week, Hawaii's live shows, and into the top 20. That's were it gets interesting -- all finalists are performing from home -- recording on 3 iPhones, live to tens-of-millions of people.

Rick and Julia get into the American Idol process, from auditioning to producers, forgetting the name of her own song, gaining confidence, setting up a live studio in her bedroom, and yes... more cartoon penises. Sorry new American Idol fans -- but TYSO has a voice, and it's a proud voice.

As of Sunday, May 10th, Julia is now one of the FINAL 7!!

Hi, I'm Rick Glassman, and I'm a goofy guy and a cute boy. As a kid, I had debilitating OCD. I still have a lot of “things.” The title of my podcast “Take Your Shoes Off” is a microcosm of my need for control and order in a world that... keeps their shoes on.

I created this podcast to showcase a more serious side, as I have conversations with some of the funniest and most interesting people in the world. I’ve learned the language of comedy in an attempt to survive this shoes-on world, so  of course there will be some goofs and spoofs, but think of this podcast as you being a fly on the wall, as opposed to being an audience member in a theatre. 

Please, take your shoes off, and enjoy!

Comedian Rick Glassman interviews THE MOST IMPORTANT PEOPLE

Take Your Shoes Off w/ Rick Glassman

Hi, I'm Rick Glassman. I'm a goofy guy and a cute boy. As a kid I had debilitating OCD. As an adult, I still have a lot of “things.” The title of my podcast “Take Your Shoes Off” is a microcosm of my need for control and order in a world that... keeps their shoes on. I'm also a comedian, writer, and actor. My weekly podcast ranges between interviews & casual conversations with other comedians, actors, directors, musicians, collectors and anyone else I find interesting. I also have my family on often. Sometimes it's educational (nerding out about comedy, writing, directing, basketball, comics & Magic the Gathering); sometimes it's quite serious talking about OCD, therapy, and personal obstacles. Often it's VERY silly. Whatever you're into, we probably cover it... with a hint of awkwardness. Come on in and enjoy -- but please make sure to TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF.
