50 Bad Songs

We’re baaaack! Last episode I mentioned that I would be taking a little break as I moved to a new apartment and got my studio set back up. I was imagining that it would be maybe the months of June and July of 2022. But life found a way to keep us apart. But in July 2023, I recorded this episode and it took me until today to release it. So I’ve been sitting with this episode’s

We've made it to the halfway point! This is the 25th episode and the 25th song. It's hard to believe we’ve written so many songs! Thank you for listening to our songs and for sticking with us up to this point. This project has been a huge part of my life these last several years and I am so grateful for the opportunity to get to make music and share it with all of you! In this ep

We’ve made it to April which means I’m coming up on the 1 year anniversary of moving to LA! A lot has happened in the last year–-a lot of good, a lot of not so good…Either way, something that I have come to appreciate more this year is Rest and that is the theme for today’s episode. We spend some time talking about the importance of Rest in today's hyper-productive, hustl

It is March and we are marching our way towards Spring. The weather here in LA has been ALL over the place – from the 80s to the 30s. I was originally going to do another wintry song this episode, but I changed course because it was already so warm and it didn’t feel right to do 3 wintry songs in a row! SO I chose the song you are going to hear today which is a totally differen

We are starting this year off STRONG!-- Episode two, in month two of 2022!~~ AND this is song #22 out of 50. The schedule moving forward for this year will be new episodes on the first Monday of the month, unlike last season which was on the 1st of the month. In this episode, Tim writes a golden-era instant classic that is also the introvert’s anthem about NOT going out and inste

Welcome back to 50 Bad Songs! This is the Season 3 premiere, episode 21, "Green, Red, and Gold". With Season 3, we are moving forward with a new format to the episodes. Instead of recording the full songwriting process and editing it down to be listenable, we will take a retrospective look at the details of how the music, lyrics, and production all came together. You will hear the

Truly, this year has gone by so slow and somehow so fast. I cannot believe we are here in November, like what even is time. This episode is going to be the Season Finale for Season 2. In this month’s episode, I spend some time talking and writing with singer, songwriter and vocal coach, Greg Breal. Greg is a dear friend of mine with a tender heart and a voice like butter. Greg an

Unbelievably, it is October and we have officially reached autumn in 2020. The weather in Nashville has been gracious enough to actually reflect the season and that is something worth celebrating. Tim approaches this episode a little differently than previous episodes. He is writing alone and is exclusively using his ukulele! Unheard of! Tim talks about how he is feeling stalled ou

And in the blink of an eye, it’s September. As we’ve established, time is an illusion this year and somehow we are nearing Autumn. BUT your favorite podcast carries on anyways! As things are still uncertain in the world, things are still complicated with recording with guests. But as you will hear in this episode, we are starting to figure out new and different ways of recordin

Hii here we are in August, how the heck? When did? 2020?? What’s happening. As you may have noticed, we took last month off. In truth, I had another episode recorded but was having technical issues and I recorded this episode at the last minute. I didn’t give myself enough time to record this song to the quality level I wanted, so instead I didn’t release it and took this las
