EllisFam Interviews

I have asked for the EllisFam to do a small 8 question interview so that we may get to know one another and how The Jason Ellis Show has changed or impacted our lives. These are their reply’s, unedited and all in their own words. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do, and thank you to everyone who participated. Without you all this wouldn’t be possible.

  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? The show has impacted me in that I have been able to meet some really good people… (Even if not all face to face). It has also helped me to get into MMA more and be a kickboxer. To not be complacent and chase that dream whatever it is.
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share? A Life story- how I came about- well… My dad ended up landing a cougar (my mom). On conception my dad was 18 while my mom was 36, needless to say- the relationship did not last between the two. I spent most of my childhood with my mom. I believe (and this is for the Canadians) it was the 1972 Summit series. Canada vs Russia. Hockey.

  2. What is your occupation? Military aviation parts and part time pirate. And if some Homeland security official typed those terms into Google and found this page, no I am not a terrorist.
  3. Tell me a little about yourself. I don’t answer questions like that unless a job, a date, or a free beer is on the line.
  4. How long have you listened to TJES? Late 2007-ish   
  5. How did you discover TJES? I work an incredibly boring job with incredibly boring and annoying people for a ridiculous amount of time each week. Fortunately we are allowed to wear headphones. Early on I quickly became very interested in radio. Around this time Stern was leaving for Sirius and the local rock station (WYSP) was trying out an all-talk format called ‘Free FM’. They brought in a young guy called ‘Kidd Chris’ to do afternoons and he just blew me away. He was hilarious, he had great cast of characters, and they did some of the best phony phone calls & parody songs that, till this day, I’ve ever heard. The guys at work were all Stern fans. They got a Sirius receiver on 1/9/06 and after listening in for a few months I got one myself. With Howard in the morning and KC in the afternoon, all was good in my radio world till late 2007 when WYSP imploded the ‘Free FM’ format. They moved Kidd Chris to mornings (where he sucked and eventually got fired) and so I needed something to fill that ‘Kidd Chris fix’ in the afternoons. I eventually stumbled upon this Australian guy on Faction. It took me a couple weeks of on & off listening to get into the show, but I finally did and I have never looked back.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? I haven’t found anything to replace it.
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? I’m not sure what it is, but this radio show is a bug light for awesome people. I have had the opportunity to become friendly with dozens of Ellisfam through Twitter, Facebook, Ellismanias, and east coast meet-ups over the years. They are all uniquely caring, funny, intelligent, talented, and motivational. 
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share? A snake that doesn’t bite teaches you nothing.

Sex Panther (@WKsexpanther)

  1. Where do you live? La Grande, Oregon. Small town of 13k, A gorgeous valley completely surrounded by wooded mountains.
  2. What is your occupation? I work for a large insurance company in the medical claims department. Mainly I sit at a computer and listen to the show.
  3. Tell me a little about yourself. I recently got out of a long term relationship. My fiance robbed a bank three weeks before our wedding so I’m still dealing with that. He was the most wonderful man I had ever met and I was madly in love. Go figure. It was just like life to fuck me over on that one.
  4. How long have you listened to TJES? About three years. I just recently signed up for twitter because I was feeling out of the loop. It is awesome to connect with people who like the guys and the show as much as me.
  5. How did you discover TJES? I would just catch bits and pieces because I listened to music on Faction. I liked it so much, I started listening just for the show and have been hooked ever since.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES? It is just so funny. And so real. Working with a bunch of old ladies in a silent office, they would die if they could hear what I’m listening to. Sometimes I am trying to hold back roaring laughter so hard, I shake and my face turns bright red. You can’t just listen to Rawdog say ‘boogfoot’ twice and not laugh your fucking face off.
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way? How? I feel like I connect to each of the guys. I had the same reaction to food as Rawdog growing up, I would only eat hotdogs and chicken strips. Fruits and veggies made me gag. I eat really diversely now and wonder how I ever lived off that? I was a straight A student after retuning to college at 22. ( I flunked out at 18). It wasn’t Oxford, but I’m a smart cookie (Fuck Tully). Jason reminds me of my older brother and I admire everything he has been through and everything he continues to do. I quit smoking because of the harsh words he has for callers that sound like smokers.
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share? I love meeting people that have similar views on life but I also love meeting people that very different. Coming from a small town, I like having friends on the ‘outside’ so to speak. I wont be missing Ellismania 9 for the world, hope to meet you all there!

Mike Higgins (@mikesnews)

  1. Where do you live? Southeast Missouri
  2. What is your occupation? Computer & Telephone Technician
  3. Tell me a little about yourself. 35 Year Old, Married, Father of 2 young kids. I enjoy getting outside and running, biking, swimming, and hiking.  I have completed a couple marathons and a half-ironman.  Needless to say, I look forward to half-time push-ups (when I am not driving my truck).
  4. How long have you listened to TJES? About 3 years (I think), Tully left the show about a week after I started listening.  Then it was just Jason and Josh.
  5. How did you discover TJES?  There was a Jay-Z song playing on Faction and the next song that came on was the Beatles – Yesterday.  I thought that was an eclectic mix and so I didn’t turn the channel.  Then Jason started talking and I was hooked.
  6. What keeps you listening to TJES?  I spend several hours a day driving in my truck so the show keeps me going.  Like many of the listeners, I feel like Jason, Tully and Josh are friends of mine that I get to hang out with and listen to.
  7. Has the show changed or impacted you life in any way?How?  Yes. I had always wanted to play the guitar and after listening to Jason talk about “getting out there and trying new shit”  I went ahead and bought a guitar and started playing.  The show has also provided me a new outlet for my creative side and I sent in some song parodies that made it on the air. @cobratits has them on his site if you are interested in hearing them.
  8. Is there anything else you would like to share?   I went to Chicago when they were on their book tour and got to meet Jason and Tully.  That was the coolest shit ever.  I was second in line so after I got my book signed I just hung around and chatted with other ellisfam and Tully.  When the signing was over there were 10 of us still there and Jason came over and showed us pictures of Tiger on his phone.  I struck me that Jason and Michael are really just regular guys and they have to deal with all the shit that everyone else does.
