Advertise on podcast: Chris Aballo's Podcast Experiment

To complete this set of episodes, Chris welcomes his mother, Sue Aballo, to give her side of the story.  She tells Chris (and Christian) about the weekend when she met his father and what it was like to join the Aballo family 50 years ago.  Chris shares how his parents influenced his taste in film and television, as well as his sense of humor, and talks about the ways his creativity showed up when he was a child.

At last, Chris' father Joe Aballo joins Chris and Christian in studio to talk about some family history.  The trio discuss Chris' grandfather's harrowing experiences during World War I, growing up in Newark during the mid-20th century, Italian superstitions, how cool Coney Island and Asbury Park used to be, cars from their past, the story of how Chris' parents met, and finish it all off with a round of CAPE This Or That.

CAPE is back to finish off 2023! Chris is joined by Christian Cordes, Ryan Taggart and Joe Weber to talk all manner of nonsense.  A lot of the conversation is about food (the best chicken sandwiches, the best Doritos flavors, the best fast food in California, the best food in Canada...) but there are also stories of bug attacks, cramming lots of experience into one semester of college, how Addams Family Values paid for Christian's childhood home, appreciating unexpected spikes in the podcast's popularity, and so much more.

Originally streamed live in front of Jay & Silent Bob's Secret Stash in Red Bank, NJ on Saturday June 17, Chris is joined by Mike, Ryan and Christian for the first midnight show in almost two years.  The foursome talks about their early podcast experiences and issues they've run into during live broadcasts.  They also debate the best and worst frozen pizzas, share movies they've seen get better and worse with age, and how they got turned on to their favorite music during their youth.

Chris is joined by the returning U-Goboy and CAPE newcomer Jason Enrique (along with Connor at the controls) to debate about movies. The guys cover sequels that took to long to happen, the hefty amount of disappointing sequels, the frustrations of streaming, how the theatrical model has changed in the last decade, and much more.  CHRIS ABALLO'S PODCAST EXPERIMENT   Instagram   TikTok   YouTube   CHRIS ABALLO   Twitter   Instagram TikTok Book Chris on Fiverr   U-GOBOY   Twitter   Instagram   TikTok THE U-GOBOY PODCAST   Instagram Chris On The U-Goboy Podcast - Episode 19 JASON ENRIQUE   Twitter   Instagram   TikTok 1ST CLASS 2ND PLACE PODCAST   Instagram Chris On 1st Class 2nd Place Podcast - Episode 87  DIE HARD Panel featuring Chris, Jason and U-Goboy CONNOR LinkedIn (yes, really)

Since Father's Day is closing in, Chris has invited Mike Zapcic and Ryan Taggart to share their fatherhood experiences and compare notes.  They discuss how to handle your children when they are a lot like you, responding to injuries when left alone with a child, the leap from having one child to having two, allergies, cleaning up after them, and so much more in an episode that is both educational and hilarious.

Ming Chen returns to share road stories from the comic convention circuit.  He tells Chris about his unexpected invite to a con in Dubai, and the pros and...well, cons about that.  He also talks about his repeatedly-delayed but finally-fulfilled return trip to Hawaii, as well as his experiences being part of Clerks III and how he ended up in one of the most standout scenes in Dogma.

May 18, 2003: the night everything changed. Recorded 20 years later to the day, Chris tells the story of how a Beatles tribute concert (which featured drummer Mike Portnoy and guitarist Paul Gilbert) set him on the course which changed his life dramatically.  He shares how a confused and disillusioned 21 year-old walked away from that concert with a new excitement for the future, all told as Chris speaks directly into his phone while walking the streets of New York City, where it all happened.

Chris welcomes rapper/podcast host U-Goboy to the show, along with new engineer Connor.  Ugo shares how he made the transition from stand-up comedy to hip-hop, the effects of culture shock and cultural rejection, and the importance of getting around the right people.  He and Chris also talk about some of their struggles and how crucial it is to get your mind right in order to allow things to fall into place.

Chris is joined by the returning Ryan and (an uncharacteristically quiet) Christian to catch up on some grievances.  Ryan tells the story of how he found out he'd been plagiarized for years, they all rip on recent lists from Rolling Stone, and Chris shouts out the best Twitter account to follow.  However, the main topic is tipping service workers of all types and those who proudly boast how they won't do it, as Chris and Ryan share their opinions on this egregious sense of superiority as well as their experiences as delivery drivers.

Chris is joined by Mindminx, who makes her CAPE debut to discuss the pitfalls and promises of getting back into the dating world.  The pair talks about the seemingly bottomless disappointment of dating apps, underselling yourself through photos, how bad dating advice is hurting both men and women, the challenges of being vulnerable and many more pressures that are part of modern dating.
