Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast

Andy Frasco and the crew dive into one of those episodes that somehow starts with gym etiquette and ends with a full-on reality check about life, music, and why people need to stop waiting around. From awkward gym interactions to debates about philosophy, retirement, and whether anyone actually knows how to "live in the moment," this one goes everywhere. Nick Gerlach brings the heat with some brutally honest takes on musicians, success, and why complaining might be the biggest thing holding people back. There's also talk about touring, TV pilots, Sundance moving to Boulder, and the changing music scene. It's funny, chaotic, a little unhinged, and surprisingly real. If you've ever questioned your career, your habits, or just people in general, this episode hits.

Pro wrestler CJ Perry gets REAL—and nothing is off limits. From cocaine jokes to Adderall crashes, mental health struggles, and relationship breakdowns, this is the side of wrestling you never see. CJ opens up about life inside WWE, insane travel schedules, Vince McMahon stories, and the pressure of performing while falling apart behind the scenes. We talk addiction, identity, workaholism, and the dark side of chasing fame. Plus, wild road stories, industry secrets, and why the comedown after the spotlight can be the hardest part. This one goes deep.

Andy sits down with Phil Rosenthal, the creator of Everybody Loves Raymond and host of Somebody Feed Phil, for a deep, funny, and surprisingly real conversation about life, travel, and finding joy. Topics include: Overcoming fear of the unknown Why travel is the ultimate life hack, loneliness, success, and building a meaningful life Hollywood, rejection, and reinventing your career Why most people are better than their governments Phil shares stories from around the world and breaks down how to stay positive without ignoring reality. #everybodylovesraymond#WorldSavingPodcast

Mark Brownstein joins Andy for a candid conversation about the recent Disco Biscuits split with their drummer, Allen Aucoin, and the public fallout around it. Mark shares his perspective on how things unraveled, including communication issues inside the band, the challenges of long-term creative relationships, and the business realities that can complicate everything even more.
Andy also connects it to his own recent breakup with Shawn, so the episode turns into a broader discussion about conflict, friendship, and what happens when personal and professional relationships stop working the way they used to. It's an honest look at how one side is processing it in real time. The conversation touches on band dynamics, touring, money, resentment, and the hope that eventually people can move forward with some respect for what they built together.
A thoughtful, and very real conversation between two good friends and colleagues.
