After a 3 month break I'm back with a new episode to reflect on the hiatus and to celebrate one year of podcasting! I start  with an explanation for the much needed break, then touch on some minor changes to the show as well as my thoughts on w
Killer Mike says kill your masters. In the same vein, I say fuck your pimps. Not literally, but stop letting them fuck you. Are you getting unfairly pimped out? Are you literally a prostitute to an abusive pimp? Or are you selling your soul to
Even as someone who is in full support of the movement and changes being called for, it's been hard for me to defend that my actions have been little more than performative in the last few months. Not entirely so, because I sincerely mean what
Everybody looks for shit to get them out of bed. For Danny Fain, that shit is art. Whether it's movies, photography, theater, books, or any other art form that peaks his fancy, this guy lives to learn. In this episode we discuss some favorite f
One thing I've noticed getting people through the lock down is creating, sharing and listening to more music. That comes as no surprise considering how deeply music has inspired us as a species throughout any crisis. We celebrate that which can
"Tell all the hunters to lay down their guns. Tell 'em that the tiger needs a little bit of love. Let 'em run the jungle, let 'em roam their land. Then stand back and marvel, what a beautiful cat. 'Cause I saw tiger. Now I understand. I saw tig
These violent delights have violent ends but your guess is as good as mine when it comes to where in the holy hell this show is going to end up. Just when you think you know, it's guaranteed you'll be hopelessly clueless by the next episode. My
TechTalk, TikTok, ShitTalk. The world around us is changing at an alarming rate, no matter how you spin it. If our current conditions haven't made that abundantly clear, and you have yet to consider the illusion of normal you were likely under
The only thing longer than the quarantine is this episode. My pal Evan Henning and I sat down a couple weeks before this to discuss our passion, second only to filmmaking: ROCK ‘N FUCKIN ROLL, BABY. This episode title is brought to you by the n
Would you? In this episode Max McCroby and I sit down to discuss the future of human life expectancy and the possibility of de-aging technology. Taking that into consideration, we also talk about how long we would like to live given the choice.
Like any good journey, this conversation is a bit scattered. Nick Martin and I have been friends for years now, and one of my favorite things about our friendship is our ability to talk about anything and still be hanging on each other’s every
It doesn’t take too much pondering to get lost in the sauce with the magnitude of the universe. Just one glance up to the sky on a starry night is often enough to get one curious about their place in the world. If nothing else, as your mind sta
While religion can be a sensitive subject to discuss, it’s one Monty and I share a passion for. And while we may find ourselves on the other side of the coin of people who consider themselves passionate about religion, given we are no longer re
Last week Bong Joon Ho, the cast, and crew of Parasite made history at the Oscars. The night before, Louie and I hopped on the mic to sing praise for our favorite movie of the year, and what is sure to be one of our favorites of all time. We ta
It appears this episode lives in a society. If you’re sick of this meme, then here’s some fresh material reviewing one of last years most controversial movies. In this episode, Louie Kurtzman and I go all in, discussing the origin story of Arth
The first time I ever laughed so hard that I cried as a result of a viewing experience was during the Family Matters Key & Peele Skit (if you haven’t seen it, watch on YouTube. It’s even better than the classic A-Aron skit). In 2017, Peele took
This week I go lone wolf - well, sort of. Earlier in the week I had a variety of people who I’ve crossed paths with in the Mindwest share their thoughts on personal growth. In this episode, I share the comments from Facebook and explore how the
After a three week hiatus, Minds Wind Open returns with another introspective episode to discuss the internet as a canvas. My next guest, Sulay Chappelle, sits down with me to explain his vision for expressing himself and his dream to form a cr
There’s a lot to be anxious about in any lifetime but there seems to be a wider variety of pressures to overcome today than ever. In this episode, Maddie Smith and I open up about some of the things that make us anxious, speaking generally on d
“Hell is other people” according to Jean Paul Sartre‘s existentialist tragedy “No Exit”. While this is certainly true, that’s not always the case. In this episode I have a grand ole time discussing with actor and vocalist Will Graber about a pe
Get those gears turning with this thought provoking conversation with Montavio Avery on phenomenological cognitive therapy. If the that sounds like a helluva subject to engage with, let Monty break it down for you. It’s sure to open your mind u
