Kevin & Sully invited actor Eric James Morris to the show to talk about how it is to be a "small" actor and how society immediately thinks that all actors are "Matthew McConaughey". When the truth is, there are SO MANY more actors and actresses out there than there are these "superstars" A bit about Eric -He's from Atlanta, GA, he was actually born there. He's lived all over but always cwent back home to his favorite town which is Atlanta. He's been married to the same woman for 22 years. Her name’s Crystal. He has two sons and he also runs Morris Environmental. When acting’s not paying the bills, you have to do something else. He's appeared in shows such as MacGyver, The Vampire Diaries, commericals and tv series. He's working on some smaller projects all while trying to grow his business at the same time. Kevin & Sully asked questions in regard to what it takes to become an actor, the schooling to hone your skills and more. Eric gives great insight into the day and the life of a smaller actor and

In order to limit our introductions to our world famous podcast, and get you all right to the nitty gritty of our interviews and show content, we've decided to do a once a month episode just to touch base. We'll call these "The Casting Couch" because, well, Kevin is alone, and he can only imagine how it feels to be that girl sitting on the famous black couch for her job interview. So it fits. Anyway, Kevin touches base with the listeners about the new and improved Hellbound with Halos website store, a reworking of the layout of the website, and thanks all of the new Hellbound with Halos Website Members, as well as, the HellboundNation Facebook Group Members. Kevin & Sully like to engage with their audience, and through these mediums, they are able to.

It's Crystal's birthday week! We always tend to do a little Crystal focused show around her birthday, so we stuck with tradition. The crew talks about what they used to do for birthdays as kids, ie; Chuck E Cheese, the Arcade, or out to dinner. That brought up the question of... at what age should kids stop having birthday parties? Sully thinks 12, Crystal agreed, and Kevin thinks it's about that age as well. Sully said it's like the age when you start having just one friend over and they go to dinner with the family and out to do something after. They all talked about what they did for their 21st birthday's as well. Sully said he puked his face off, how could anyone have doubted that? Crystal said she thinks she spent it at home because she had her 2 year old son at the time, and Kevin went out drinking with his buddies, but did not puke. Lucky him. Kevin did bring up a time he had "White Russians" after beer and projectile vomitted everywhere. Lots of reminiscing here that you're sure to enjoy! Crystal we

Kevin & Sully head across the "pond" and invited special guest Naomi Mellor (from London) a veterinarian to race horses and fellow podcaster, to this episode. They also had Sully's wife, Amy, join them because she not only works at Saratoga Horse Track, she's been around race horsing since she was a child. Naomi tells her story from starting out, wanting to be a veterinarian since she was a young child, and some of the challenges she faced along the way. She visited the Fiji Islands in the Pacific for a while to gain experience and then headed back home when her parents questioned what she was doing for an occupation. Working with and under multiple doctors, going to school, and gaining even more experience was her mission in London. She's had the opportunity to work with many great race horses, nursing them back to health, or sadly, having to put some down from injury. She has a true passion for this profession and it shines through in her personality. Naomi also hosts the "Smashing The Ceiling" podcas

Ever had an image in your mind about the way something was going to play out? Or at least how you thought it would be? Only for it to be something completely else, or the scenario not playing out even close to what you had imagined. Usher in the latest Hellbound with Halos, "Expectiations vs. Reality" Kevin, Sully & Crystal start things off talking about one example of the ice creams from the little neighborhood ice cream truck. Remember those? You'd get all excited for the superhero pop and it either tasted like shit, or looked nothing like the front of the package. Or another example of recipes on Pinterest... that beautiful meal and what it looks like after it's done, and yours looks nothing like it, or resembles more of an alien life form. These are the expectations and realities of life. Expectations are our thoughts about how something is going to be or how we imagine it. The reality is, our expectations seldom meet or exceed what the true reality is. How about adulthood? Think back to when you we

The highly anticipated Part 2 of Hellbound with Halos Conspiracy Series Episode, is here! Kevin, Sully and 'Shred' sit down, in the studio, once again to delve deep into some theories and thought provoking situations that have happened, or are happening right before our very eyes. Shred starts off by explaining to the boys exactly who "Q Anon" is, and why it's there. No one knows who Q is, whether it's one person or multiple people, but Q is a force the deep state has serious issues with. Q Anon is defined by Wikipedia as a far-right conspiracy theory detailing a supposed secret conspiracy by an alleged "deep state" against U.S. President Donald Trump and his supporters. The theory began with an October 2017 post on the anonymous image board 4chan by someone using the trip code Q, a presumably American individual that may have later grown to include multiple individuals, claiming to have access to classified information involving the Trump administration and its opponents in the United States. The account ha

Kevin & Sully invited Lauren, a female police officer into the studio for an episode. Kevin met Lauren through social media and was intrigued by her because she was local and that she is a female cop in a society such as today. They brought her in to discuss some of the challenges of becoming a police officer, what it's like to be a female cop and how difficult it is to be a police officer in today's society. Lauren started out by working at a Federal prison facility as a jailor at 20 years old. From there she moved to the road as a patrol officer. She says that it wasn't as difficult of a transition as she imagined and everyone on the force was very welcoming. They treated her not as a woman, but as a fellow officer. She did agree that some agencies or municipalities have this issue, but she was fortunate. The most nerve racking part of being on the road, for her, was her first day. She got her first call at 7am and blanked out. She called her commanding officer and he helped her through it. Since there

Kevin, Sully and Crystal are BACK for the first episode of 2019! Crystal starts things off talking about how her wall heater, at their family vacation home in Tahoe, almost burned her house down. Sully worked at played referee with his dogs, and Kevin was sick with malaria (not really but he says it felt like it), for the whole holiday break. It's great to hear the crew back together again since Crystal's short absence. They all talk about what they did on New Year's Eve.. Sully was in bed by 10:30, Kevin was in bed by 11:30. Kevin said he tried to stay up but was just too sick and tired to make it till midnight to watch the ball drop. He talks about how he took some left over amoxicillin and Sully read him the riot act because your not supposed to talk medicine like that. Kevin also brings up wondering what it would be like to be a celebrity during the holidays. Crystal said she could never imagine being a celeb, ever, because she doesn't like people all up in her face, while Sully thinks it would suck becau

Bethany Cefalu, 'The Motivational Angel', joins the boys for a special edition New Year's Eve episode! Broadcaster turned Life Vlogger, Bethany is dedicating her gift of gab to empower, drive and guide you to everything and anything you've ever wanted in life by utilizing the Law of Attraction. Kevin thought there isn't a better way to ring in the new year hearing and listening to some positive thoughts and ways you can help yourself think more positively going into 2019. Sully starts the show off admitting that eating more pizza is his New Year resolution, while Kevin introduces Bethany to the listening audience. Bethany describes herself, what she does and how she does it. Starting 'The Motivational Angel' about 6 months ago, she is looking to motivate and be a life coach for everyday people and help them to achieve their goals while keeping a positive mindset. They all discuss what can happen in life to steer people's mindset off track, but that you, as an individual, have the power to control that. Betha

It's Christmas Eve! And what a better way to spend it then listening in on Kevin, Sully and Kenna play a few games. Not your average reindeer games however. This is moreso a fan submitted questions and answer by Kenna and then they played some 'Have You Ever' Naughty or Nice. Kevin starts things off wondering if Christmas Eve is actually a holiday. Other than New Year's Eve, it's the only 'eve' before a major holiday labeled on a calendar. They jointly decided it's a holiday, only because it's on the calendar. Kevin asks them what their plans are for Christmas. Kenna says she's headed to the mid west to be with family, Sully is working so he's doing Christmas on Christmas Eve, and Kevin is working Christmas Eve, so they'll be doing a later celebration on Christmas Day. Kenna begins answering questions that were submitted by fans. Kevin put out a post on social media to enable Kenna's fans to ask her questions. And that they did. Kevin whittled the questions down to a bunch, but he said a lot were duplicates

Rianna Carpenter also known as "The Combat Barbie", joins Kevin & Sully for this episode. Rianna has never done a Podcast before, so the boys 'popped' her cherry, and what a fun time it was! Rianna begins talking about how she got the name "The Combat Barbie" and how it was meant as ridicule to make fun of her. Little did those people know, she would harness that name and take it to a whole new level. When she entered the Marines at 18 years old, Rianna was a short, blonde girl. Basically all of the things that are stereotyped for possibly not being able to make it in the military, let alone the Marine Corps. Some people gave her the nickname and began actually posting on the web and social media, making fun of her for being 'the combat barbie'. When all that transpired, Rianna took all of her social media down and basically hid for awhile. During this time, she realized she should take the name and 'own it'. And that she did. She used the name and began posting pictures of herself on social media websit

Tommy Falbo, CEO and Founder or "PepperNutz" Hot Sauces, stops into the Hellbound with Halos Studio to heat things up and talk all about his sauces! Back in 2007, Tom started his business as a distributor of other hot sauces, because he loved them. Then, shortly after, he realized he should be making his own. So that, he did. (His wife actually had the idea that he start it). Tom discusses how he's be fortunate enough to be in the local Rochester, NY media to help promote his product, as well as working with the NY culinary school for food pairing ideas and chefs for testing of new flavors. He's received a lot of support from the area in Western NY and he is very appreciative of that. Kevin says that it seems as though people in our area, largely support local companies. Kevin is a bit nervous about taste testing all of the PepperNutz sauces, even though he enjoys spicy foods. He was prepared with milk, however. His biggest concern is the 'Carolina Reaper' sauce, in which that particular pepper boasts a he

In this weeks episode, we lean toward a more controversial topic of rape. We had the opportunity to meet with Athena Ives, a Marine Corp Sgt Veteran, and Author of the book, "Thank You For Raping Me". Athena describes her unbelievable story of growing up being raped by her brother and then again, twice, during her military experience. She explains that the "Thank You" in the title of the book is based off the idea of how these horrible occurrences happening, made her into the person she is today. Kevin, Crystal (yes Crystal was back for this episode!) and Sully talk about what is going on in today's society that makes people NOT want to come forward and some of the reasoning behind why people do. Kevin thinks it's because of all of the false accusations made by women that weren't actually raped and that draws fear into those that have been, from coming forward, in fear of not being believed. Sully describes how difficult it would be to completely rectify the problem because no company, or especially the mili

Kevin & Sully invited Travis Blair, owner and founder of the "Zarfling Platoon". Travis is a 10 year military veteran that felt as though he could contribute to helping kids learn through a series of books and games he has created. Travis published his first children’s book, The Knitting Chicken, with illustrator David Buist. Shortly after, his son’s first grade teacher provided him a list of sight words to work on at home. Travis created a game in order to keep his son’s interest. That game helped his son retain the sight words taught to him at school and improve his reading score! Seeing the value, Travis worked with art designer PJ Day to create the SpellCasters VS series. With a children’s book and educational game, and a desire to create more, Zarfling Platoon was stood up with a mission! What exactly is Zarfling Platoon? A Middle Eastern word for what was originally made of ornamental metal, a zarf is a holder for a coffee cup without a handle. Today you know it as that cardboard sleeve allowing yo

Kev & Sully start off discussing the Michael Cohen ordeal and the lawyer being found guilty. They talk about how he probably won't do jail time for it, but if we did what he did, we most likely would. Kevin talks about his busy schedule with marketing for the podcast and how it absorbs a lot of time. They also have small talk on other recent news items. Then the boys move onto the meat... Do you believe in superstitions? In this episode, Kevin & Sully discuss Superstitions. What exactly is a superstition? Superstition is a pejorative term for any belief or practice that is considered irrational: for example, if it arises from ignorance, a misunderstanding of science or causality, a positive belief in fate or magic, or fear of that which is unknown. "Superstition" also refers to actions arising from irrationality. (Source- Wikipedia - 2018) Out of the "true" definition most people believe that it gives them power to change their own fate, based off of an action. Like Kevin, he taps the outside of a p

The boys welcomed Jarred Taylor, the CEO of Article 15 Clothing, Business Manager of Black Rifle Coffee Company, Leadslinger Whiskey, Co-host of Drinkin' Bros Podcast and Producer of movies. Sounds like a lot of hats doesn't it?? Well it is, and he handles it all. JT grew up in the Pacific Northwest. After graduating from North Kitsap High School, he shipped off to Air Force basic training to become a Munitions Systems Apprentice. He wanted something much more combat-related and opted to go through the process to become a Tactical Air Control Party Specialist (TACP). After graduating from the TACP Apprentice course, JT went on to the U.S. Army Airborne School and SERE, and finally got stationed at Fort Bragg, NC, at the 14th Air Support Operations Squadron. He deployed to OIF in 2005 in support of the 18th ABN Corps, 172nd Stryker BDE, and the 3rd Special Forces Group. While there, JT supported combat operations on the streets of Mosul, Iraq, acting as the ground liaison between the Army and the Air Force en

Black Friday!?!? Already?? Don't you just love going to the store and getting basically trampled to save yourself $50 on a TV? Because we don't. And we talk all about it, in our way of course. Kevin & Sully talk all things holidays, which Kevin hates, and how Thanksgiving came about. Now we know you're thinking, Thanksgiving was yesterday, but look, if we released this on the Holiday, no one would friggin listen. So here we are, providing you a tranquil audio experience on one of the most chaotic days of the year. Find out how Thanksgiving started, why Thomas Jefferson basically said f*ck you and didn't celebrate it, and when the pilgrims first observed the day. Because it wasn't late November. The tangents are rampant. Then they talk about some of the most popular holiday season movies. Sully's favorites are Elf and Die Hard, while Kevin's is The Christmas Story. They start off by naming movies from the "Good Housekeeping" list, which sucks, then "Rotten Tomatoes", which also sucked.. to end up finally

In their newest release, Kevin & Sully invited a friend to the studio for some conspiracy discussion. They call him "Shred" to not only keep him annonymous, but also because he shreds through a lot of mysteries surrounding our government, the deep state, and more. There are a ton of different theories out there surrounding events that have occurred in our country. They begin discussing how "Shred" started investigating different stories and situations. It all began back when he was a kid riding in a car in Vermont. He noticed a triangle in the sky, a UFO, that was very quiet but apparent. Then, suddenly, it took off into the sky. There was no glow from it, but a really loud roar. Later on, he found out it was the military testing the Stealth bomber. It surprised him how well the government kept that a secret. Sully brings up how in the past people thought the theory behind having an Air Force was odd and now we're seeing the same thing today with people thinking its odd that President Trump created a "Spa

"Greg the Psychic" joins the crew once again. To connect with Greg (he does them any which way possible) go to http://www.tarottimepsychic.com/ and get a reading... You won't regret it! Greg is always a pleasure to have on. Kevin refers to Greg as their "resident psychic" and Greg loves the sound of that. This was his second appearance with Kevin, Sully & Crystal. Only this time, he was there to tell them what or who "they used to be" in a past life. The theory is that a soul never dies, just the body does, and that soul lives on for eternity through other bodies. The things you learn from a past life are carried on into your current life, and you have the ability to change them for the better, with the knowledge you have from your previous existence. Kevin isn't too happy to learn he was a "carny", while Sully & Crystal were royalty. Well, Sully was for most his past life, Crystal finds out she was a nun in one of her lives. Haha. They get real deep into why and who they were and how that possibly c
