    EPISODE 7: JAMES HERSEY - GREEN HAIR DON'T CARE
    Mar 14 2021
    In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv 'Zooms' with his childhood buddy - internationally successful singer/songwriter James Hersey! Whether listening on at home on Spotify, over the speakers at the gym or in my case even in a Tuk Tuk in Thailand, you've all heard his incredible songs "Coming Over", "Miss you" and most recently "Forget (About Everyone Else)" among many others. Nadiv and James have a long over-due chat about comedy, music, finding your artistic intention, staying true to yourself, being an artist in the age of social media and the future of entertainment after the age of Corona. Spoiler alert! James blesses us with a refrain (acoustic) to his most recent track and teaches Nadiv how to hit that 'high note'.

    EPISODE 6: LORENZO VIOTTI - MAESTRO SAYS IT BESTO
    Feb 28 2021
    In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with his friend and world renown classical music conductor, Lorenzo Viotti. 'Lore' generously allows us to glimpse inside of his artistic universe and guides us through everything that comes with it: passion, dedication, focus, the importance of being alone, the pressures of the outside world and how to feel fulfilled and 'at one' with yourself through it all. The two of them discuss all of the above and still manage to find the time and space to lighten up the room. Fasten your seatbelts (or hide under a desk), because Lore's voice vibrates like an earthquake!

    Jan 10 2021
    In this episode of "Jokes Aside", Nadiv sits down with himself again and tries to decode the strange time's he's living in. Bare with him on this one! He sings (totally hit that high note), improvises, rambles on a bit about home work-outs and something about getting back up again 8 times after falling down 7 times... I think Denzel Washington said that once during an award show acceptance speech.... anyway, switch off and enjoy the ride!
