  • My conversation with DJ Gringo-Throwback episode.
    Mar 23 2026
    In this special episode, originally recorded in October 2019, I sit down with DJ Gringo for a real, unfiltered conversation about his journey through the DJ world—from spinning vinyl all night at major events like Rebel Salute to building his own signature parties at Bar 13 and Tune In Tuesdays. We talk about his love for roots reggae and dancehall, how he learned to read a crowd and control it, and how the industry has evolved with technology and social media. DJ Gringo shares honest insights on staying true to your sound, the importance of authenticity, and what it really takes to stand out as a DJ today. This episode now carries even more meaning, as DJ Gringo passed away in February 2026, and stands as both a reflection of his passion and a tribute to the energy, talent, and presence he brought to every room he touched.

  • Your Closet Is Inventory (What I Sold on eBay This Year)
    Mar 3 2026

    This episode, I talk about selling nine random items from my apartment on eBay since the start of the year — not as a side hustle, but as a way to clear space and create circulation. From clothes with small flaws to an old air fryer, I share what actually sold, what I learned, and why turning clutter into cash is more about mindset than money. If you've ever thought about reselling but hesitated, this one's for you.

  • Sony to Let AI Play Your Games For You? VIDEO GAME TALK
    Feb 27 2026

    Sony just patented an AI "ghost player" that can guide you through a game — or even play parts of it for you. Some gamers think this is the beginning of the end. I think it might be the future. In this episode, I break down why AI-assisted gameplay doesn't ruin gaming — it evolves it. From treating story-driven games like playable TV shows to competing with Netflix and Twitch for our time, this might be the next big shift in how we experience games. And honestly? I'm not mad at it.

  • Send Help Movie Review-Spoilers!
    Feb 11 2026

    In our first movie review of 2026, we dive into Send Help, Sam Raimi's return to low-budget, gore-soaked dark comedy. We talk about the film's retro thriller vibes, outrageous practical effects, and the morally messy showdown between Rachel McAdams' brilliantly awkward survivalist and Dylan O'Brien's privileged but panicked counterpart. From Evil Dead–style camera gags to an ending that left us debating character choices, this island survival story gave us laughs, winces, and plenty to discuss. Fun, twisted, and very Raimi — we break down what worked, what didn't, and why it's a solid 7.5–7.8 out of 10 for both of us.

  • Talking Video Games and Making a Beat-December 2025
    Dec 5 2025
    In this episode, I dive into the excitement around Valve's newly announced Steam Machine and what it could mean for the future of handheld gaming. I talk about the rise of hybrid console–portable systems, why shorter and more interactive games fit better into my life now, and why the GTA VI delay honestly doesn't bother me. I also break down the controversy surrounding Rockstar's recent employee firings and share my thoughts on the gaming community's obsession with nostalgia. It's a mix of tech talk, gaming culture, and personal reflections on how I play today. Finally after a work injury kept me home for three months(late last year), I dove into music production, inspired by Marc Rebillet's improvisational style and the gear he uses. In this episode, I share the audio from my first beat video using this gear. Thoughts? Comments? Do so on the blog here.
