Inspirado Projecto by CEC

Martin Schmidt the SockMonkey Guy continues his story of how he and his confederate, Gary Parks, began restoring Monterey California's Golden State Theatre with the dream of returning the architectural splendor to its former glory. We also get the latest news on his progress of building a highly detailed miniature version of The Golden State Theatre. Mike Schlie, author of "Infinity Diet", songwriter, screenwriter, inventor, also appears in this episode, giving us the history of how he came to be Southern California's KING of POGS!

We also go on a trip through a sanctuary zoo at the annual KEEP CALM JAMBOREE, while yacht rock band Yachtley Crew sets up for that evening's performance on April 19, 2024! This whole episode bounces around timelines and is complete with lots of epiphanies, synchronicities, and curious revelations! Martin's segments are recorded on March 15, 2024. The same day as my Sister Jenny's Birthday! Mike's interview segments are recorded on March 1, 2024.

Also appearing in this episode, are songwriter/singer Blythe Baines, actors Stew Strauss and Abraham Lincoln impressionist Rob Broski from Twin Peaks: Season 3, Maria Humphreys from Strong Body Strong Soul Podcast, one of my high school best friends Phil Donlon who is also a talented writer/actor/director, Atlas The Dragon from Varelse Bridge Society and Crystore Inc! Plus, Henry D Horse gives us another exciting Funfact! Also mentioned in this episode are: Corporal 13 and my strange interview with him, ElevenLabs voice clone AI, Operation Tone Up with Tony Lamka, and my Dearly Departed friend and phenomenal painter Jeff Cahill from "The Blues Brothers" movie (we co-starred as "Orphans" in it, while Cab Calloway talked to us in our scene at the steps of Saint Helen Of The Blessed Shroud Orphanage in Chicago). Also thank you to marvelous Hostess Amanda Frank with the discojacket, who booked Yachtley Crew to play at the KEEP CALM JAMBOREE! Every year, you go above and beyond!

This is the third part in a series with Martin Schmidt, titled "The Golden State Theatre Mayor". He also appears in a series of episodes titled "Golden State Heroes" co-starring Christo Roppolo the local UFOlogist! Mike Schlie also appears in other episodes of Inspirado Projecto and is President of the organization WAKE UP. Schlie created much of the set designs on the Halloween horror film "Black Pumpkin".
