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.

The only guest who will appear on this podcast is Yeezus. Once I get Yhandi on the program, I will be open to having other high profile guests, like Elon Musk, etc. I'm setting my sights high. I'm currently the hardest working man in the Austin comedy scene, so I'm not worried about achieving this lofty goal. Kanye needs a friend like me, and I will actually let him talk. The ideas he and millions of other people have raised aren't going anywhere until we become mature enough as a species to talk about them with reason.
Follow me on IG, won't ya? That's where I post the sexiest reels. @TimWeichselbaum

Creativity is not something you can achieve with grind mentality. It's like a flower and needs the right amount of water, food, and sunlight. Being an artist is a fragile pursuit and thus shouldn't be approached with brute force. That is true for stand-up comedy, which is not merely a craft. It is in fact an art as well, and should be treated as such. Start working smart instead of bumping your head against the wall. Don't surround yourself by people who don't understand your vision or brand. Stick to your creative guns and do your best. You'll be glad you did.

How the heck do you become a professional comedian or podcaster? That's what this episode is about. I ain't making money from this yet, but I know what I have to do to make that happen. I go into great detail on what it means to be a professional stand-up comedian, getting better at podcasting, Kill Tony, and not letting other people hoard power over you.

Celebrate the 50th episode of this program with me in my bedroom. This is a very intimate episode where I talked earnestly about ADHD, narcissism, jealousy, and becoming a professional entertainer. I'm officially making this my main career, so buckle up. Either this is going to be a successful podcast, or I will go bankrupt. The pressure is on!

This episode marks the one year anniversary of when I began doing this. I continue to document my ADHD recovery journey and the pursuit for the best medicine. I go into way too much detail about perfect pitch, a very esoteric topic.
I also reveal why my late Grandfather is the most inspirational figure in my life. I played some clips from an interview he did in 1989 about his take on surviving the Holocaust. I'm very proud of him and decided it was the right time to share his story on this platform. If I don't, who else will? Nobody else in my family has a podcast.

This was a very long episode where I stood the whole time. You can clearly tell that I'm an on dopaminergic drugs. I am more confident than ever, and almost one year sober (from alcohol). I'm now on a drug that's more addictive than alcohol, but weirdly makes you a better driver.

This was a very fun episode to record. It took me a bit to get into the flow of the episode, but once I did, I didn't want to stop. I will be reentering society soon hopefully, or at least becoming more productive in reaching some goals.
