#SOSpod: The Journey of a Comedic Talent
Yo. I’m Skyler Stone. Actor. Comedian. Recovering alcoholic. Husband. Father. Yeah, I know a lot of people would start a bio like this with “father” listed first cuz they wanna seem like they “put their kids first”. But I’d skip my kids’ graduation to be in a Scorsese movie, and you would, too. KIDDING. This podcast is me blasting toward a happy destiny 'one day at a time' as I sit down with the interesting people I’ve been collecting in my life that I haven’t fallen out with yet. Though, to be fair, I will also be sitting down with plenty of people who hate me as well (or maybe somewhere in the middle). Some amends are due, and I will be airing my dirty laundry to all of you as we are gonna use this platform as a way to make some of them.
There’s no way to say this and not sound douchey, but I know a crap ton of celebs, and they’re all gonna do this podcast. But I won’t be asking them about their cute, little publicist-approved “Tonight Show stories” about swimming with the dolphins in Maui. No, I wanna know about how people are able to wake up without impending doom, keeping them under the covers, and if they’ve ever sniffed glue before. Look, I’ve made a LOT of mistakes. So much of this podcast will be going over the dark tales of my past, but just as much of this podcast will be about paving the way toward a brighter future. My wife is hot. She’s gonna be on. I have identical twins. Two stepkids. We are a blended family. And we live in Reseda, CA. Sweep the leg!
All I wanna do is make people laugh all over the planet while simultaneously helping the people living on it. I love to surprise people, and this podcast is an homage to that! Just think of me as a punk rock podcast version of Ellen as I surprise my guests and audiences with fun and charitable moments. Except I’m not a woman, and I’m not a lesbian (and I’m much nicer to my crew). Jk, I love Ellen. Well, I guess I’m not getting her as a guest now! See? Told you I make mistakes.
#SOSpod is a look into the madness of the Los Angeles comedy community and the life that a bipolar man has created after succeeding and failing during 23 years of life in LA. Whether you’ve been rockin’ with me since the old days of my Comedy Central prank show “Con,” or if you saw me shake garlic salt from my hair in that lady’s food in the movie “Waiting,” or you served me court papers at some point, or (up until 2017) you saw me blacked out at your neighborhood bar—I want to surprise and help YOU too, not just myself… so… how can I be of service?
