About this listen

I’m Bon Vivant, and professional talker, David Cross. I’ve been talking professionally for well over forty years. I’m good at it. I truly love a conversation that follows no specific linear train of thought but can start about the 2004 Red Sox and minutes later has become an in-depth look at the Iran/Contra hearings (with a detour about the best breakfast tacos in Austin). Whatever, as long as the conversation is funny, edifying, and real.


This podcast began as a vehicle for guests to explore the Best/Worst/Funniest/Saddest/Most Beautiful etc. things they’d ever Seen, Touched, Tasted, Smelled, and Heard. Somewhere along the way this became a loose premise, a jumping off point to learn more about my guests, and I let the conversations steer themselves.

My favorite part of each ‘cast is when Cross yells for his assistant to “look up” thus and such, like a scene out of an old movie where the boss calls out to his assistant in the next office. This guy is one of the smartest comics/entertainers/cyborgs alive. Love this show, and he cannot make episodes fast enough, dagnabbit!

David Cross is brilliant.
