The Juice with Jeff #302

On this episode Mindy Toyne conducts and co-produce her fantastic, superb, very fun, pretty energetic, and very conversational interview with me in person for Episode #302 of the podcast. This is Mindy's second time on the show, and I truly believe both the interview she did with me in May of last year and this particular interview are definitely equally HER BEST INTERVIEWS EVER for the podcast!!

After our introductions, here is what we brought up during the interview:

A bunch of things related to the podcast, including the super amazing and historic year we had during last year, Mindy being part of our Juice with Jeff Inc. Board of Directors/Advisory Committee, our super amazing Juice with Jeff: Best Interviews in the World logo that Micole and Josh Chapman arranged to have created that is on the T-shirts and those stickers, and all the milestones we've reached with the podcast over the last year.

I talked with Mindy about the super amazing extremely special, super energetic, and EPIC interviews that Micole and Josh, and Jill Bassman conducted and co-produced with me in person both last year for Episode #212 (Carrie England was also part of this interview last year) and a couple months ago for Episode #289. I also share with Mindy how I met Katie and Nic Hoover a couple weeks ago and they conducted/co-produced their debut interview with me for Episode #298.

Mindy also asked me the following questions:

If you could pick a celebrity interviewer/co-producer for the podcast, who would that be?

If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?

If you chose a specific photo for the screensaver on your phone, what would it be?

If you had a $1000 to spend on something from Amazon Prime, what would it be?

If you could have a round trip ticket to travel anywhere in the world at no expense to you, what would it be?

Do you read comic books or did you read comic books?

What is your favorite color?

If you went back to Drake University or another university, would you choose to study Journalism/Radio/TV again or something else?

Are you afraid of heights?

Would you hold a snake if someone walked up with it and assured you it would be safe?

Would you ever get a tattoo?

If you could live anywhere other than Des Moines, where would it be?

We wrap up the podcast with Mindy sharing what's new with her over the last year.
