Dec 15, 2020

In this episode we are joined by the extraordinary voice talent and radio broadcaster, Tim Andrews. As with many comedians, Tim developed his comedy at a young age. Part of it was used as a defense mechanism, while part was used for acceptance. By middle school, Tim was already pretending to be on the air, making up voices and stories to tell. As he grew in skill, he moved toward any radio opportunities, landing on several shows before his current run on The Von Haessler Doctrine. Known as the "man of a thousand voices," Tim, along with several others, bring listeners a comedic take on the world of news-talk. Tim is also embarking on his 6th season of his own podcast called, Radio Labyrinth. The podcast is firmly rooter in the Gen-X experience, with an eye on entertainment and culture.
