Author Tim Kirk (All His Damned Mothers Sun, The Feral Boy Who Lives In Griffith Park, Burnt, Christ Never Showed Up, AND films- The MIami Vice Incident, The Nightmare, The Mystery of Durango, Sex Madness Revealed, Room 237, Shudder, The El Duce Tapes) was disgusted with club promoters ripping off bands on the Sunset Strip, so he decided to play them at their own game. Tim gathered his friends to "play" in his band, got a few wigs and turned up to rock Gazzarri's night club. The result is hilarious!  Each week Hollywood’s most talented people in the entertainment industry share true, personal stories on the Story Worthy Podcast. Story Worthy celebrates 15 years of podcasting in July 2025 and has over 850 episodes recorded.
