What lies beneath?

Below are interviews with interesting people about a single interesting thing – mustaches. To help celebrate the month of Movember  we are talking with folks from television, movies and sports, wringing out their most intimate thoughts about lip-ticklers and crumb-catchers.

Listen to your favorites, share with your friends maybe even post a comment.  But if you like what you hear (and you’d have to be a bare-faced golem not to) why not donate a couple of bucks to the cause? You’ll be helping prostate cancer research and encouraging the upperlipblip to keep the interviews coming.

Thanks.

These interviews are great, but…

I hope you are enjoying the celebrity interviews here on the Upperlip Blip – we’ll be adding some more fun interviews with notable people throughout the month.  The purpose of this blog and these podcasts is to raise money for Movember – as a survivor of testicular cancer I am a big supporter of their efforts to destroy men’s cancer.  I vehemently – yet politely – ask that you donate something if you listen. A dollar!  Five dollars! $21.75!  Any amount is appreciated and for a good cause.
