Vent!

"What else do you want your audience to know?" - The question Spotify for Podcasters asks me when I'm filling in details for an episode about to be published. I want you to know that this is the season finale, I love you and this is for me. I feel a new phase of the podcast that can only be explained with execution, a phase that makes us look back at this season and smile because thi...

Is there a proven result of going against regular programming? Is there a cost for being crazy in belief or borderline delusional? Is it safe to bet on conviction? I'm not a fan of answers as much as I'd like to be, I like the mystery of things. It's not as exciting if it's certain or better still - played out. I still enjoy the trailer before the movie. enjoy and share the episode...

I’m listening to Kanye and HOV’s Made In America a couple minutes after this episode drops. It reaffirms my belief in needing a life worth betting on. Who else is and isn’t scared? I mean at the same time, because at this point you’re a little naive If you think one exists without the other. ...we all need lives worth betting on, enjoy. Background sound credits: 4K Forest Sounds, Brent Faiyaz - Ro...

It's a response vs react debate, that's the episode. split-second reactions vs intentionally thought-out responses. On paper, it's easy to choose what we think we live by, but in action, more truth is told. We're moving chemistry, molecules in constant action so it makes sense that we react, but then we have minds - the ultimate remote control. On this episode like every other one...

Everything worked against this episode dropping, but it dropped regardless. It’s supposed to be 40 episodes per season and we’re at 38, 2 more in the coming weeks. If I read the circumstance correctly, I’m supposed to take some time off to live without bottling thoughts into episodes every week. I’d miss it, it’s some sort of therapy for me and it works. This may be the last episode for a while, u...

Touching yourself, wanking, masturbating, what other words describe this? There aren't enough words but you know how it feels if you're truthful with yourself, just like I TRY to be. The episode that was supposed to drop is called "Games Is Next To Drugs" but I think that episode is for me and would forever rest and playback in my thoughts. This episode has a solution if you cons...

The art on the cover was sculpted by Isabel Miramontes, I don't know who she is but she makes dope shit. After searching for a couple days looking for the right art fit for the episode, her art comes through, just enough to express care and tacid* feelings. The actual spelling is "tacit" but I've misused the word for so long, I'd only take correction after this episode drops....

I don't believe there's anybody that isn't you that can tell you how much you mean. Even if by the grace of God, I inspire you, I'm just the expresso and you end up doing the actual work. In the list of underrated items, "Finding yourself in solitude" is top three most ignored because there's just enough programming to keep you distracted from forming gut opinions abo...

This is an episode about fraud, or maybe imposter syndrome, or better still something that robs you of you, that's if you think you know who you really are. I can excuse the finance fraud but not personal ones, it hurts deeper unless you're too shallow to realize it. A chunk of this episode was taken off, not by choice but because I was working on it in different stations but the point was...

"What happens on broke days?" was born from shege and thoughts, and it made sense to create something tangible in the form of an episode from the experience. What happens on broke days is thoughts, somewhat directionless if you have a reasonable standard of thought process but if you're a loose canon with them thoughts on broke days, then I anticipate a crippled self-esteem, which I...

It's still an episode, and still a podcast I promise. It's me, and I hope you believe your ears. It's alot of things coming together at this point. Creating and Collab-ing whatever I want to unless it's not God's plan, open to more things and just doing it. less ignorant and more curious. It affects everything, I'll try because it just makes sense to do what makes sense to...

Recorded this episode at 4am, 10.05.23 with some of the most creative people in my immediate circle present at the studio, some of the few who I absolutely admire and most times I'm in awe of - but I don't tell them the last part most of the time but it doesn't take away the fact. This episode documents every creative person who borders between delusional self-importance and living in...

One of the most human things to do is withhold – feelings, emotions, actions because “we don’t f**k with people”. Everything that’s free to give slowly became conditional for the next person to receive – love, respect, kindness, care etc. The truest display of passion is God. Listen and Share. Thank you to all the listeners and supporters sharing and spreading the pod. Love Forever. Rate the Podca...

I'd really love to know how you cope when it gets overwhelming, I'd like to see your comments in the Spotify comments section or @ventpod DM on Instagram. The DM and comment sections are open forever just incase you listen to this whenever. It's Life - good or bad, it gets overwhelming sometimes. The truth through that is either ways I'm rooting for you reading this about to listen...

I asked the definition of an epiphany from someone I met online who has - epiphany to their name and this episode is that for me and I think it'd be the same for you too. I'm on the journey of making myself really treat my huge folder of screenshots as my necessary internet for the time being, until it expires. The screenshot folder in my opinion is slept on like J.Cole before he started his featu...

Another episode from experience from myself and a couple of others whose conversations are valid to me. In this episode, I try not to sugarcoat the reality of sinning for the sake of progress. To sin for the sake of progress increasingly feels like the best way to get things done, to move the forward you want to see in your art but as usual, Asher never presents himself as a magnet to tilt your mo...

I'm dropping this episode in the midst of a situation that can consume your mind if you're not delusional enough to drop an episode in the midst of it. I've dealt with my restraint, now I'm on something else immediately after this hits the internet. Restraints are subtle fears and right now, I may just deceive myself enough to understate the fact that I have a big fear in front of...

"We're all animated characters in this game of life, and Nas is the best rapper in the video game." - Ye (formerly known as Kanye West). This episode is as short as they come but it took a while to organize my thought around this because it started a thought of being a clown in a circus God attends or is the owner of. It's best to use my words carefully because it's God. I realize as much as I pay...

...a Soft-Padded Cushion Chair? At this point, I think I've been graced with interesting ways to define regular things but Love isn't regular is it? I like the idea of love. "Don't get me wrong, I like love. I fuck w the concept of being vulnerable enough for your emotions to be fucked up by a girl you think is pretty and worth it. It's just time, when is the clock right? It's hard, it really is h...

Nigeria, a topic my mom had told me to avoid on this podcast for some reason, a mother's reason, mostly good. But this time I have to talk about it from a perspective we all see it from, not harsh or depressing. Just what it is, as plain as we see it after we say "omo" or "we move". How long can we "omo" or "we move" our way through worse situations? Is this a question you've thought off before? H...

Concentrate all your thoughts on the work at hand, the sun's rays don't burn until brought to a focus. In the last couple of days leading to the drop of this episode, I've been steadily educating and practicing focusing through distractions, even the ones that present themselves as important and urgent but with no productive result attached to them. I hope you're not guilty of being overly distrac...

Have you ever heard of a zombie with responsibility? It's easy to choose convenience over responsibility every time unless you're constantly aware of what's at stake and push yourself to do something that rolls the wheel of action on a daily. This is personal for me, especially when you're caught between not seeing results and opportunities in the horizon. Listen and Share. 

The second part of this episode with Eniola is a trip further into the topics addressed in the first. It gets a little personal midway and funny almost at the end. In this part of the episode, He talks about dealing with suicide, quitting, and manifesting pre-conceived dreams and visions of the future. The closer you get to the end of the episode, the more you understand the context of the topics...

The guest on the show has remained and still is a mystery to alot of people who know his work from the gram. Plastic Pigeon aka. Eniola Ademakinwa is one of the most energetic and homely persons I've met and happy to have shared the studio booth with. On this episode, we talk about alot that ties back to the level of intention, denial and execution we need to make things, anything happen. This med...

The last Vent! Episode of the year - Hangin' w/ the wrong curtains, is an unfinished thought about the worth of relationships, right and wrong crowd in life. As the occasional introvert that alot of us are, to us we don't even need a right crowd like the famous quote by Mamadoo "ten niggas is way too many niggas". Listen and Enjoy.
