The Tim Weichselbaum Show
Tim Weichselbaum is a media mogul, comedian, podcaster and karaoke singer from Chicagoland. He is also his own agent, promotor, hype man, bodyguard, and driver (despite having epilepsy). Some day he will be a massive success. Or, he’ll stop doing it altogether suddenly, before becoming anything. That will be awfully embarrassing, considering some of the things he says about himself on this podcast. I don’t think there is a more self-confident person in the Austin comedy scene right now than Tim Weichselbaum. His whole act depends on it. He doesn’t do corny jokes about how he hates himself, and that is what makes him stick out compared to most comics. Very recently treated for crippling symptoms of ADHD, he is now in the process of becoming the super-comedian he always knew he had in him. All it took was doing this podcast about fifty times before he discovered that untreated ADHD was the only thing stopping him. This podcast is not just meant for entertainment or even necessarily to be consumed. It is a journey. A document of a short man’s long life. Should someone ever write a biography about Tim Weichselbaum, be rest assured that this podcast will be the most quoted source. Unless it’s a really sh*tty biography. Tim is an introvert. He rarely commits to friendships with anyone, and that is why he lives in a hobbit hole in near total isolation. Sure, he doesn’t scoff at the idea of interpersonal relationships, but it just isn’t a priority for him. He’s more invested in himself at the moment. When he finally reaches his full potential, then it will be time to start finding the real kind of friends and family he’s look for. Topics covered on the show primarily revolve around becoming a professional stand-up comedian, and the trials and tribulations that go along with that process. It took Tim ten years to decide if he was really good enough to be an entertainer. He isn’t just a stand-up comedian after all, he also can sing, dance, and act. But does Tim believe in himself? Let’s find out on this show. He also covers other interests such as mental health, self improvement, and finance/investing. He performs stand-up comedy in real life using the stage name Timmy Gusto, as an attempt to conceal the fact that he’s slightly Jewish. I wonder if it’s possible to get canceled from iTunes just for the description. Any who, you can follow @TimWeichselbaum on Instagram, his current social media platform of choice, to see reels and other enjoyable snippets of his creative output.

Ep. 83 | Chris D’Elia is Funnier Than Hitler
Thursday Jul 27, 2023
Thursday Jul 27, 2023
Being funny is a rare gift, and it can't be denied once it has been proven. Some comedy elitists claim that Chris D'Elia is not funny because he does silly voices and not the type of comedy that they were taught is legitimate in their circles. I can get not enjoying his comedy, but to deny that he's funny is simply wrong. Look up his older stuff on YouTube from around 2011.

Ep. 82 | Out Reclusing the Brown Recluse
Monday Jul 17, 2023
Monday Jul 17, 2023
I'm a reclusive person living alone in the middle of Texas, and another reclusive species is moving in. I'm not willing to burn the house down, so I have to fight the problem by cleaning it. This is an arduous undertaking for someone who can barely get out of bed in the morning.

Ep. 81 | Stockton Rush: Villain or Misunderstood Genius?
Sunday Jul 09, 2023
Sunday Jul 09, 2023
A lot of people have been piling onto Stockton Rush, claiming he was a bad person for supposedly not listening to the engineers he fired. That's very convenient for them to do now that he's dead and can't defend himself. I believe there are two sides to every story, and that Stockton might not be the one to blame for the implosion after all.

Ep. 80 | Ismay Did Nothing Wrong
Wednesday Jun 28, 2023
Wednesday Jun 28, 2023
J. Bruce Ismay caught a lot of heat for not going down with the Titanic, which I think is ridiculous. Just because other people died, why should he be shamed into isolation for surviving? The crypto market is stagnant and I'm stuck at home without a car during a heat wave. So there's not much else to do besides learn about shipwrecks and the Erie Canal.

Ep. 79 | Saving Animals With Crisco
Saturday Jun 17, 2023
Saturday Jun 17, 2023
I wouldn't listen to this while eating. I go deep into describing Texas wildlife that I've been encountering such as frogs, lizards, wasps, and spiders. There's currently a heat wave and I'm stuck at home without a car. Lord knows I'm not going outside and exposing my skin to the actual sun. I didn't move here to accelerate the aging process. I moved here to get away from the zealots of the North who unironically think Juneteenth is not a cringeworthy holiday.

Ep. 78 | Dashcams are for Cowards
Saturday Jun 10, 2023
Saturday Jun 10, 2023
I finally got my comeuppance for driving without a dashcam in a city where traffic laws are optional. I put in my community service by hosting an open mic early in the night, and decided to drive into town only to get side swept while attempting a right turn onto Red River. I learned a lot about human psychology by watching drivers and pedestrians react to my car as it sat disabled in a busy intersection for hours. Luckily I had my CBD cigarettes to help pass the time.

Ep. 77 | Don’t Buy The ”AI” Hype
Friday Jun 02, 2023
Friday Jun 02, 2023
I don't buy this AI hype one bit. It ain't gonna take anyone's job. It's just another fad like beanie babies. Folks are buying into tech stocks and it's just another cycle. I will be selling my NVDA stock while others are FOMOing in. I've been around long enough to learn how to profit. You want to profit from AI? Too late. The ones profiting already bought in back when everyone else was selling.

Ep. 76 | Bad Sectors in My Brain
Wednesday May 24, 2023
Wednesday May 24, 2023
Nobody told me that SSDs only last around five years. I thought they were infallible storage devices that lasted up to thirty years or longer. Nope, turns out my three year old drive was suffering from over a thousand bad sectors and this is probably what was causing my computer to blue screen. I stupidly bought a new one with Amazon reward points, when I should have charged it to my credit card. That way I would have gotten 5% back on the purchase. Learning to be frugal is how I've been getting my rocks off lately. My mental health is still in the toilet otherwise.

Ep. 75 | Exorbitant Prices for Non-absorbent Toilet Paper
Monday May 15, 2023
Monday May 15, 2023
This episode is for my hardcore fans who look to me as a leader. I may not be the most confident or well spoken influencer, but I have a more defined jaw line than Andrew Tate, and that's what really matters. My interests are all over the place, and I could never be dedicated to just one niche. That would get stale and I'm not trying to stoke that kind of focused, consistent hatred. I'm much too talented to be only known for one of my many skills and passions.

Ep. 74 | Fomo Induced Brainrot
Sunday May 07, 2023
Sunday May 07, 2023
Fomo is a dangerous drug that causes a deep pain in one's soul. These past few weeks I've been glued to my computer screen watching the crypto market in hopes of figuring out some way to benefit from it. While I'm bullish on certain projects, the market still seems overpriced compared to the utility crypto provides.
