Peter Venkman, Jack Ching bada bing, Mr Woodchuck and of course Joey Gladstone.. These are some of the many faces worn by comedian Dave Coulier over his 20+ year career. In today’s special TWIG interview Birdman gets to sit down with Dave Coulier to talk about his career, adventures and Fozzy Bear farting…wait what? The pair talk about the early days of Dave’s career and how he got involved in voice acting and working with some of Hollywood’s greatest and the eventual move onto shows like Full House and America’s funniest people and beyond. It’s less of an interview and more like a conversation with a man who has stayed funny with his clean comedy stylings for over 20 years. Birdman is privileged to share with you his conversation with Dave Coulier.

The TWIG duo take a look at the movie from the actors, the story and of course the core of the music itself. Does “Rock of ages” have it what it takes to reach the top of the charts or is this a one hit wonder? Does “Rock of ages” capture the spirit of the time of when rock and roll was in a transition period before the dreaded boy bands and the rise of rap? Leather,hairspray and a jean jacket are required to ride this train so lets all head off to the land of the rich and famous and lets talk about Rock of ages!

Birdman returns to RAD but this time not with a game but with a different kind of awesome…an interview with awesome video game voice over artist DC Douglas! You may know him best as the villain of Resident Evil Albert Wesker or the Geth Legion from Mass Effect 2 & 3. Mike sits down with DC Douglas to talk about more then just video games in this interview that dives into the man behind the voice of our favorite characters. We learn about some of the weirdness that is Hollywood and the people you can randomly run into at the post office and at dinner theater. It’s a fun lighthearted affair that gives you insight into DC Douglas who voice is oh so serious but the man is downright goofy and fun. Sit back and listen to an odd conversation with DC Douglas!

Well guys, summer is more or less here and it’s time to say goodbye to the books and classes right? WRONG! We’re guessing more then a few of you had trouble keeping up with classes or perhaps pissed off that wrong professor or simply decided sleeping in was a better use of your time..well Ellen Breman is here to help you smarten up for next time. Birdman and Ellen sit down and talk about her new book “Say This, NOT That To Your Professor: 36 Talking Tips for College Success” and its actually a real eye opener. This conversation may have helped Birdman when he was in college and not running around proclaiming “I am the lizard queen” instead of paying attention. Listen up kids as this could help you next year into truly kicking ass when the rest of your classmates are goofing off and not doing their job. As Commander Adama always says “Do your job” and listen to this interview and get an edge up on education. Visit her official website to learn more Ellen and her work as an educator and blogger!
