From a Nurse

These words aren’t mine, but they are too powerful not to share.

This was sent to me by a nurse. I’m keeping this person’s identity anonymous, but you can imagine it’s a sentiment that many in the medical field share.

To the nursing assistant who has taken their hands off the chest of a twenty-something year old- the only risk factor was asthma.

To the providers, in awe of their patient, a…

Catching Up With Scott Murphy of King Kerosene

Believe it or not, there was a rich and vibrant Rockabilly scene in the 90s. There were many artists making interesting music for a community of enthusiasts around the country who all at least kind of knew each other. I always refer to that time and my place in that world as “When I was a kid…” As a teen sneaking into bars and events to be a part of what was happening, it was like the most…

I am a writer with work available to peruse and purchase here. You can also read 40 Things I Know At 40.

I have a podcast on Spreaker. You can also…

The Kyle Meredith Interview

Late last year, I wrote a story on Consequence of Sound interviewer/ WFPK Music Director Kyle Meredith for my gig at TOPS Louisville. It was intended to run in January of this year, but the issue ended up being a bit too full of content and it bumped. Efforts to get the story rescheduled never quite panned out, and so I’m presenting it here.

I found Kyle to be very sharp, knowledgeable, and…

BEN VENICE: G.H.O.S.T. STORIES- 1 Arnold Clive

Arnold Clive wasn’t tall or skinny. Neither was he fat, thin, ugly, handsome, smart, stupid, funny, sullen, young, old, or in any way particularly memorable. Most who met him subsequently forgot him in short order. His voice wasn’t high or low, perhaps the key to his one remarkable trait. He was an astoundingly accurate mimic. All he needed was to hear a man’s voice once. Not always, but nine…

40 Things I Know At 40 and the On The Record With Rocko Jerome Podcast

First off- Check out my new book, 40 Things I Know At 40. You can find a directory to other things that I’ve written here.

Just like almost everyone else with an internet connection, I’ve got a podcast. It’s On The Record With Rocko Jerome,in which I will interview people of note in a decidedly freeform format. No intro music, no rambling intro, no obtuse edits, nothing over 45 minutes. As an…

I HAVE SEEN OLIVIA JAIMES, THE CARTOONIST BEHIND THE NEW NANCY

I went on the road for an 8 hour round trip so that I could be in a small room with a cartoonist who currently writes and illustrates an 85-year old comic strip about a child. The cartoonist has a secret identity, and she was wearing a disguise. Here’s my takeaway from a brief encounter with Olivia Jaimes.

Ernie Bushmiller’s Nancyis one of the most influential comic strips of all time, a real

You have reached the webpage of Rocko Jerome

Hello! Welcome to the personal website that I am generally too busy to maintain. Like so many other, similar sites on the internet, it has grown derelict over time as I work on other projects and maintain a presence on enough social media platforms that I have to stop and count them all, then be surprised that there really are so many.

If you’ve found this site, the main thing that I want you to…

The Penultimate Podcast: Episode Zero

Being an adult and maintaining friendships with other adults can be hard. When you’re a kid, you tend to shake interpersonal difficulties off with an ease that you lose as you age. Things have a way of stacking up on you. When I ran into my old friend Jeremy Hicks for the first time in years at The Destination, mutual friend Brian Barrow encouraged us to record a podcast (without realizing our…

39 Things I Know at 39

I’ve tried to move away from writing in the first person the last few years. The older I get, the more it strikes me as the behavior of just one more egotist with an internet connection. However, today is my birthday, people seem to like these, and everyone deserves to be self-indulgent on their birthday. So, here we go:

Ben Venice: The Season of the Scorpion 8

“Who do you work for?”

“I am the agent of St.Peter. It is time to confess your sins.”

“I don’t believe that.”

“Good. You’re being honest. That’s all you can be, now. Who heads the Order Of The Scorpion?”

“I don’t know.”

“Are you lying? Because I will beat you some more if I think you’re lying.”

“I don’t want you to beat me. I’m telling the truth.”

“Who do you believe they are?”

“Powerful men.…
