WP:BLP of a podcaster with no strong or properly sourced claim to passing WP:CREATIVE -- the only sources here are his own appearances on other people's podcasts, and a press release announcing his hiring as circulation manager of a small town community newspaper (which is not something that gets a person into Wikipedia either.) A podcaster is not automatically entitled to a Wikipedia article just because it's possible to verify that he exists -- he earns one by being the subject of substantive coverage in reliable sources, but nothing like that has been shown here.

 * Delete as per nom, notability has clearly not been established here. GABHello! 16:47, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete He was a business-side manager of small papers in Arizona. I am not even sure if the circulation manager of the New York Times would be notable for such, but not of the Bisbee Review. He is also a podcaster, but there are thousands upon thousands of such, and nothing to demonstrate he is a notable one.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:23, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
