'''''Tom Rhodes Radio''''' (also referred to as '''''TRR''''') is a once or twice-monthly interview [[podcast]] hosted by [[stand up comedian]] [[Tom Rhodes]]. The show launched in March 2011 is an extension of the various travel projects he does while on the road.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/tom-rhodes-radio/id426881872 | title=Tom Rhodes Radio iTunes page and description}}</ref> |
|||
==Background== |
|||
The podcast began production in 2009 under Rhodes self-titled production company. Unlike other podcasts, Rhodes has years of experience as a host interviewing celebrities for Comedy Central as their first spokesman in the 90s, as a Dutch talk show host for [[Kevin Masters Show starring Tom Rhodes]] in the early 2000s, as a travel host for Yorin Travel, later [[RTL Travel]], and in his self-produced travel DVDs [[Rhode Scholar]] (filmed worldwide at comedy venues and tourist sites) and [[Built for Joy]]. These DVDs feature clips of his performances as well as interviews with interesting locals.<ref>{{cite url= http://www.tomrhodes.net/?page_id=6 | title=Bio on Tom Rhodes Productions}}</ref> |
|||
Rhodes, a travel blogger for [[The Huffington Post]], has gone on record saying he would like to star in a comedy travel television show where he can document his personal travels and highlight comedy scenes around the world. Tom produced pilot episodes himself in 2010, filming in Montana and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Clips are available on [http://tomrhodes.net his website].<ref>{{cite url=http://www.crackerscomedy.com/crackers-downtown/tom-rhodes/ | title=Crackers Comedy Club review of Rhodes}}</ref> Since 2009, Rhodes' projects have all incorporated his love of traveling and filming in exotic locals, including a "Honeymoon World Tour" after he married Dutch photographer Ashna Rodjan in 2011. He and his wife filmed during this time, and documented his travels on his blog.<ref>{{cite url=http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0722539/bio | title=Rhodes' imdb}}</ref> |
|||
Like fellow comic [[Louis C.K.]], Rhodes does self-production of his projects and presents them on his [http://youtube.com/kingofhaha YouTube page]. His messages are often political, but are overall amiable. The tagline for the show is "promoting love and laughter in the universe," which is fitting for Rhodes' hippie-style and San Francisco roots. |
|||
==Reception== |
|||
Most episodes have featured interviews with comics Tom knew in his early stand-up years, such as [[Doug Stanhope]] and [[Brian Regan]]. Stanhope is known for his comedic cynicism and called Tom a "very positive person" on the first episode of the show.<ref>{{cite url=http://trr.libsyn.com/webpage/episode-1 | title=Doug Stanhope on Tom Rhodes Radio}}</ref> [[Janeane Garofalo]], also a cynical comic, was quoted in a [http://www.dead-frog.com/blog/entry/tom_rhodes_there_and_back_again documentary about Tom's career up until the mid 2000s] as saying that Rhodes' laid-back persona would normally "rub her the wrong way", but since Rhodes is uniquely laid-back and upbeat both on and off stage, she enjoys he genuine nature.<ref>{{cite url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FN7oNv5X3iE | title=Tom Rhodes: There and Back Again Part 1 of 3}}</ref> |
|||
Matador Network listed TRR as one of the top podcasts of 2011.<ref>{{cite url=http://matadornetwork.com/life/20-podcasts-check/ | title=21 Podcasts to check out (2011)}}</ref>. Matador's only complaint was the sporadic release of the show, but cited Rhodes ecclectic mix of guests--such as comics, his Uncle, promoters, and muscians like Tom Rhodes, an indie musician with the same name in North Carolina--as a strong draw. A special episode featured an [http://trr.libsyn.com/webpage/laura-rhodes interview with Tom's sister Laura shortly before she passed from breast cancer]. |
