Eugene is upgrading PCs in his house (in this economy?), Cy is getting back into the PS5 Pro (in this economy?), and Ray and Kris have gotten a ton done on the book store they are renovating... Yes, in this economy! Plus we discuss our current feeling on the use of AI in creative projects. Have our thoughts changed? Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Cyrus Martin...

A "Jill of all trades," our very own Kris Andrew how dabbled in a lot of different hobbies through the years. Writing, baking, knitting, gardening, home renovation, podcasting, and now business owner. So this month, let's find a out a little more about what drives her to make and build in so many different fields. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Cyrus Martin Li...

Kris and Ray bought a book store and are working to get it up and running to re-open next year! Other than that, Eugene has been working on house lights and building a new PC while Cy continues to dive deeper into his love for retro gaming.

This month we are interviewing Jimmy and Rachelle, the dynamic duo that make up the award winning cosplay pair, Ronin Cos Reza. They use a combination of 3D printing, foam armor, and more to create really awesome costumes. From Marvel, DC, video games, they have cosplayed a wide range of characters and knocked them out the park every single time. Ronin Cos Reza online: Instagram: https://www.insta...

Eugene is 3D printing again to not only help organize is office, but also to decorate for the holidays. Meanwhile Kris & Ray are also prepping for the holidays, but in reverse order (because Canada), while Cy is about to start another big, secret project? We're catching up and laying out our creative plans for December. Editors Note: If you listen to this show as an audio only podcast, first,...

It’s hot as… well the episode title. And we’re LIVE on YouTube again! If you want to watch us record the episodes, make sure you are subscribed on YouTube so you can jump in the chat and share your thoughts! This month, we’re doing another catch up episode and talking about what we’ve been getting done. Plus, Eugene takes us on a tour of his office so we can see first hand what he’s been up to. Ho...

We’re back together and chatting about what projects we’ve been working on. Ray has been doing construction and drawing, Eugene has been playing with his new, old, PC build, Kris has been writing on her SubStack, and Cy has been doing battle with the elements as his powers begin to wane due to the conflict. It will make more sense when you watch the show. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests: ...

This month we are interviewing our very own, Cyrus Martin. Cy has written books, made an indie movie, made an indie video game, done voice acting, and has a successful YouTube channel. But we wanted to chat with him about something he has done that very few can say they have, especially in these modern times; created a magazine! Find out what drove him to write the articles, do the layout, edit th...

The group gets together to discuss what they’ve working on as well as what they plan to work on for the summer. They also discuss how sometimes you just know you’ve made the right decision when all of the stress leaves your body even if it may seem like you’re just taking the easy way out. Why do we do that to ourselves? Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew Like the s...

This month we’re chatting with Travis Williams, an indie movie maker who has been making films for an impressive 25 years! Travis’ production company, Hedges Pictures , has won multiple awards at film festivals through the years and he is here with us to discuss his creative process and what has driven him to keep making movies. His newest movie, Festival Circuit, will premiere April 26th and go l...

It’s time to catch up with the group and see what they have been working on. And that’s apparently not much. Sure, some progress is being made on different projects but for the most part everyone seems to be in a rut. Is it the weather? Is it the economy? Is it the political climate? All of the above? If you’ve found it’s getting harder to get your creative juices flowing, you’re not alone. Host:&...

It’s the first episode of our new format and our first interview on the show! This month, we’re chatting with Amber Palmer, self-published author of the Darkness and Fire Series , the Wicked Dark Doulogy , and the brand new Between the Pines novel. Amber discusses what it’s like being an author, promoting and getting her name out there and how she channels her creativity into her writing. Host:&nb...

Seriously, it’s snowing where? South Texas should not be getting more snow than Canada. In any case, the crew discusses their current projects; everything from getting rid of old Christmas decorations, to sketching, to updating a raspberry pie. They also announce a change in the schedule for future episodes. Make sure to check out the episode to find out what’s on the horizon. Host:  Eugene S...

Halloween is over and we’re heading into the Christmas season (with a quick layover for Thanksgiving). So we’re recounting what we’ve done the past 2 months and kind of looking ahead. We’re all tired so no one has huge plans. But we do discuss how learning from a pro sets your expectations going forward and looking back. Or not. Like I said, it’s been a rough week. Host:  Eugene Stephens Gues...

Cy is recording voice work again and has come back to YouTube. Eugene is working on costumes. Ray’s watching hockey and Kris is watching trash TV. All is right in the world. Now, if we can just afford to live in it, thing’s might now be so bad. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Cyrus Martin Like the show? Do us a favor and rate / review the show on iTunes, S...

It’s time once again to catch up on all of the creative projects we’ve been working on. It’s also time to start getting ready for our favorite time of year, Halloween. On this episode we discuss shops, costumes, and other long running projects. We also discuss what it’s like to grow up with little money and how that effects us, even to this day, as makers. And then go down a rabbit hole about deat...

Guess which episode it is? Forty nine. But you knew that because you read the show tittle and didn’t accidentally get your notes swapped around like Eugene did. So instead of our regularly scheduled show where we check in on the projects we are working on, we’re doing another episode where we discuss what we are watching, listening to, thinking about and doing. Spoiler alert! Deadpool & Wolver...

We’re chatting about all of the stuff we have been watching, listenings to, thinking about and doing. And the majority of it is older stuff. Old movies, old TV shows, old music. In some cases, what’s old is new again, or at least, new to us. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris Andrew , Ray Andrew , Cyrus Martin Like the show? Do us a favor and rate / review the show on iTunes, Stit...

Cy is under the weather but the show must go on. This month Kris, Ray & Eugene discuss how their personal projects are coming along and how being injured sucks when trying to be creative. But it just comes with the territory for some of us because apparently unless Ray gets injured somehow, it doesn’t count as a project in the Andrew household. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:  Kris An...

We’re catching up on all the stuff we’ve been watching, listening to, thinking about and doing. And not watching or listening to. Turns out we haven’t had a ton of time to watch and listen to stuff, a lot of us have been pretty busy building stuff and setting stuff up. And yes, I realize I’ve used the word stuff a lot. And I’m not going to change it. Stuff. Host:  Eugene Stephens Guests:&nbsp...

Eugene got moved into his new home. Yay! And has been doing nothing but unpacking and setting things up for weeks. Also yay? Meanwhile Kris is being hot in a sweater and writing, Cy has been cooking and Ray failed at doing nothing… and built an awesome secret door. Plus, there is a common theory going around that you will always have more hobbies than time to explore them. Is it true? Host: ...
