Open Mic with Mike Creed Ep 24 Patrick"Maddog"O'Grady - a podcast by Cyclismas

THIS EPISODE For our Thanksgiving edition of Open Mic, Mike catches up with old friend Patrick "Maddog" O'Grady, cartoonist and wordsmith extraordinaire, an unsung legend of the cycling industry, and one of the chain gang members on the Colorado Springs group ride who taught Mike the etiquette of riding in a pack on the road.

They trash talk Arcade Fire, consider the merits of Tom Waits, Charlie Bukowski, and Netflix, and cover the origins of Patrick's obsession with comic books and cartooning, in addition to covering an immense range of other topics throughout their hour-long conversation.

Irreverent, candid, funny, intellectual, and filled with stories, Patrick's chat with Mike is going to become one of your favorite podcasts.

WARNING. Mike goes all self-indulgent and honors a Thanksgiving tradition for many by playing the entire 18:34 version of Arlo Guthrie's "Alice's Restaurant." After you listen to Mike's opening comments, if you want you can fast forward to the actual interview with Patrick, which starts at 23:15.
