Scott M. Holden

Scott Holden, spent his formative years growing up in Middle Village, Queens, New York. At age 9 his family then moved to Orlando, FL briefly because of his father's work. However, it was settled much quicker than anyone had expected and after only a few years, in the family moved to north New Jersey. Holden had career in Information Technology, spanning over a decade. Rising from Field Technician to Computer Operations Manager, to Technical Project Manager. However, that career came to an end in 2009 when Holden was laid off. Unable to find work, he and his family returned to live with family. At a low point. Holden attributes the book "Tough Sh*t: Life Advice from a Fat, Lazy Slob Who Did Good" by Kevin Smith as being the book that changed his life. Giving him permission to start a podcast and just say stupid stuff on the internet. Holden started the podcast Bone Crushing Juggernaut with his lifelong friend Joe Greshko. A year later he would launch the podcast that was a homage to the hero he attributed with saving his life, Writer, Director, Actor, Podcaster, Kevin Smith. ThatMan on Fatman (now in its 2nd year) has a rapidly growing listenership. Holden cohosts the show with his wife and show producer, Jeanne Holden. Each week the two discuss the latest events in and around the Kevin Smith universe and interview guests. The couple have interviewed many personalities from Kevin Smith's View Askew films including, Scott Schiaffo, Marilyn Ghigliotti, Ernie O'Donnell, Brian O'Halloran, Bob Hawk, Michael Rooker, and even Kevin Smith, himself. In November 2014, ThatMan on Fatman was selected as the 1st podcast to be featured on the SModcast Network's show "PodU." A podcast feed designed to feature independent podcast creators. Podcasting has been a gateway to other creative projects as well. In late 2014, Holden was able to be involved in the film project Shooting Clerks as well as moderator for the Clerks Panel Discussion, at the Mr Hush Weekend of Fear Convention in PA. In January of 2015, ThatMan on Fatman were invited to participate in The NYCpodfest. An annual festival held in New York city, where podcasters perform their shows live.
