Bob Jamerson, known as Baton Bob, is a costumed street performer, currently based in Atlanta, Georgia. Baton Bob used to live in St. Louis, Missouri and in both cities is a significant local personality. He typically marches down urban sidewalks dressed in a tutu and occasionally a tiara. As his name suggests, he almost always twirls a baton as well. His stated goal is to amuse and cheer passersby, to "lift people’s spirits and put a simple smile on people’s faces during their daily routine". He is known worldwide as the "Ambassador of Mirth".
We learn all about his life, how he is received by the people who stumble upon his performances and his creative inspirations. We also talk about the time he was on the Judge Joe Brown show.
