I continue to deal with a mental tug-of-war: be grateful for what I have, but also upset that my friends made me stay in town when they don't plan on doing anything. So, why not be passive aggressive about it to make them feel bad? That'll show

Blessed Birthday Pt. 1

Oct 12th, 2016 4m 20s

Part 1 of a 3 part episode: There are three "big" birthdays in a young person's life: their 16th, their 18th, and the grandaddy of them all, their 21st. As someone who doesn't like to drink, it didn't mean that much to me. However, I still want

Forever Alone Freshman

Sep 14th, 2016 4m 6s

Everyone's freshman year of college requires an adjustment period. Going from a class of 40 to a class of 1000 was a big change for me, especially since I didn't like to party or drink. That lead to some humorous encounters and some lonely nigh

Jun 9th, 2016 4m 45s

As we grow up, everyone has that person in their life who unfortunately is oftentimes on the receiving end of their mistakes that are bound to be made as we mature. This is the story of who had to endure mine: Savanna.

Prep School Punishments

We have all either seen or been a part of being disciplined in high school in some way, shape, or form. Having graduated from one, I can tell you some stereotypes about Catholic high school punishments are true.

Siding in Sports

Apr 7th, 2016 4m 42s

Some struggle to figure out which team to root for when they first get into sports. I was no exception. I liked to visually show which teams I supported by wearing their logos. The problem was, the teams I was supporting were not only in the sa

Registration Rituals

Mar 16th, 2016 4m 34s

There is one thing that all college students have in common: dealing with class registration. No one likes it. Neither did I. But, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. And sing a little Sinatra too.

Espo and Elton

Feb 24th, 2016 3m 25s

We all have a theme song. Mine is "Bennie and the Jets" by Elton John. So you'd think I would've listened to the song when I was young. Nope. It took 17 years. And once I heard the song in it's entirety, I realized why it's a good thing to thin

Fist Fight Fun

Feb 17th, 2016 3m 57s

We've all gone through it: being a young kid and having your first fight at school. I may have deserved the first punch and it's not a David vs. Goliath match, but it still taught me a valuable lesson we can all learn from, even as adults.

Potent Pot

Feb 10th, 2016 3m 36s

I've never smoked pot before. But I have been around people who are smoking it. And it took me several attempts, at different musical venues where the crowd and main act were at least twice my age, to realize what it smelled like.

Feb 3rd, 2016 4m 24s

It's true when they say "be careful what you wish for." For some odd reason, I wanted to experience a DUI checkpoint. I finally did. (Disclaimer: when I recorded this episode, I was unaware until much later that I mispronounce a phrase: it's ca

Dancing and Discipline

Dec 17th, 2015 3m 17s

If you're at an event that will have dancing, you have to pace yourself in order to last the whole night. I learned the hard way what happens when you dance at a wedding and don't pace yourself.

Wrong Words

Dec 9th, 2015 3m 10s

We've all been there: unintentionally saying the wrong words to someone that make you feel like an idiot. Even though you meant well. Everyone puts their foot in their mouth sometimes, right?

Sports, Swearing, and Superstition

Dec 2nd, 2015 4m 43s

Following your favorite sports team can lead to certain words slipping out you shouldn't be saying in front of your parents. It also can lead to some bizarre superstitions that you know don't mean anything, but you do them anyway.

Prom Predicaments

Nov 26th, 2015 5m 19s

After following a ridiculous, self-imposed rule regarding taking the same girl to multiple dances, I wanted to go solo to my senior prom. But my parents had other ideas.

Homecoming Hell
