Give Money Get Things (and feel good about yourself)
Elimination Station
About half way through my one-man show, “Ryan O’Connor Eats His Feelings”, I have always sung a song by Katie Thompson called “America’s Queen”. The song was especially written for me to hopefully gain Oprah Winfrey’s attention and convince her to have me on the 25th and final season of The Oprah Winfrey Show.

Literal Oprahtunity
I am feeling intensely overwhelmed by making a video for the Oprah reality show “Your OWN Show” Some might think that this is a no-brainer for me, so did I at first.

Client: ”I love the job you did! Thanks so much!”
Me: ”Great! Best of luck with it! I sent you the invoice. We did more than what we had agreed to and did not charge you for it.”
