Artsy Fartsy Immigrants

Today we bring in a special guest. Enjoy this episode with the artist Anna Pascabolta.

While recording LIVE for the first time via the new Clubhouse App, the boys talk about Jordan's new performance video "Daily Bread," and the background story of how it got made. They also talk to the producer Jordan often works with, TIm Hecking, about the process and ideas in Jordan's new album. Then, an immigrant's perspective on foreign institutions, and how some rich, white people made a big m...

This week, the boys bring you an episode dedicated to the books that changed their lives as boys, and as young adults. From the Harry Potter series, to The Wave, they dive into the different books that are passed around the classroom in America compared to Germany, and how a lot of the movie adaptations are disappointing. They also touch on the films that worked, and why. Got a book that changed y...

Jordan and Moe meet over Skype this week to discuss the idea of moving across the world as a young, fresh college grad. Approached by a friend in the states, the question comes to mind -- "Where would you go if you had a visa, and no responsibility?" This leads to a grand EU tour of likes and dislikes, as well as a trip through America. Pat's or Geno's? Seattle or Portland? Could you handle The Ph...

The boys are back for the first episode of the year to talk about resolutions, how they spent their time away from the mic, and what they have planned for the upcoming year. They also discuss Jordan’s recent viral Tik Tok videos, the highly popular NY video “Dinner for One,” and the new Disney Pixar film, “Soul,” and what the depiction of life and death could mean for kids.

Jordan and Moe talk for the last time this year, on Christmas 2020, to bring you a lovely episode about the Christ Baby and Santa Clause, and why they're not traveling together to save gas! Thank you for listening, and thank you for supporting us. AFI will be back on January 7th, 2021. Have a Merry Christmas from Moe and Jordan.

Cheers! It's the 50th episode of Artsy Fartsy Immigrants and the boys have invited musician David Gaffney back to the show to talk about his new single, "Miles," and what his plans are when Corona finally releases us all back into the wild. The conversation touches on the big, the small, the nerdy, and the hilarious. Don't miss this one!

On the second and final installment of the exploration into Klausentag, Moe breaks down what the Bavarian holiday means to him, and shares what some consider to be the highly-overlooked "beautiful side" of Klausentag. We also hear two first-hand experiences from Klausen themselves. One of whom is a woman who takes part in the St. Barbara Run every December 4th, and one is a guy who just ran the "c...

On Part 1 of 2, Jordan breaks down not only his own fears and experiences with the German holiday (normally taking place every December 6th), but he also gets the insider scoop from an old-timer who's been around the Klausen block more than once. And to top it off we have a great story from a hilarious friend about her inability to process Klausentag. -- Like what you hear? 😏 give as a rating / r...

Face-to-face and sipping on some white wine, the boys touch on juicy topics in the entertainment business like Jordan's wild Rocky Horror Picture Show tale from his college days, Moe's distaste for all musicals (except for Robin Hood), the dubbing industry and how that affects a movie's original essence, how the Beatles and other great artists sang in German in the 60s to market a new audience, an...

With Jordan away in Moe's hometown of Oberstdorf this week, the boys tap into the mentality of the German villagers. Why the pressure to be so active in nature? Also, they try to articulate the differences between those who move away from home for good, vs. those who feel the urge to visit their hometowns as well as the idea of family obligations, and privilege. To top it off, they talk about Jord...

Well, after an unfortunate technical malfunction, the boys put together a shorter episode than usual today but don't worry, next week they'll be back bigger and better than ever! "I Wish I Hadn't Got Stoned" drops everywhere tomorrow, November 13th, and on Saturday the 14th, Jordan turns 30! We play clips from friends and family as they pass along their well-wishes and fond memories, as well as sh...

On this very special deluxe episode, Jordan and Moe dive deep on the potential results of this year's highly anticipated Presidential Election. Hearing honest and heartfelt opinions from friends and family around the globe on both sides of the political divide, the boys do their best to breakdown the core message of both parties so that the situation America is in can truly be understood. -- Like...

Jordan and Moe have curated spooky, true encounters as well as funny, one-off tales from all around the world to send you into the howling evening. Enjoy your Halloween this year, and don’t turn out the lights!

The boys are back together in Moe's newly refurbished home studio today with great topics on the table such as the difference between American and German Netflix, Jordan's music for a new JOYN program, the Twitch generation, the German hip hop scene, and much more! -- Like what you hear? 😏 give as a rating / review and tell it to the mountains… no for real: tell your artsy fartsy friends! Want to...

First the boys kick off the show with some Munich/Corona updates, then Jordan piles on the dread with his interpretation of his last 48 hours. However, it's not all bad because this month brings lots of musical rejuvenation with his collaboration on ZDF Neo's new show "Breaking Even," and his friend Tom Yanks' debut album "Bloom the Grinds" both dropping Friday, Oct. 16th! The boys brainstorm some...

On the 40th episode the boys jump right in to the issues of COVID-19, the leaked Melania Trump tapes, 2020 Election predictions and what might sway votes one way or another (like mail-in ballot controversies and Gerrymandering), and then "switch" things up with the topics of gaming and Halloween. Shout out to Moritz Binder, our #1 fan. They also call previous guest Sebastian Bolenius for a quick c...

Jordan is coming at you solo from home this week to talk about his insane teacher at the Erstehilfkurs (First Aid Course) he took on Monday, the creepy ADAC guy who joined him, new things to look forward to, and how to overcome the feeling that the creative lull will last forever (it won't!).

Wanna skip right to the interview? Make sure to look at the chapter notes so you can jump right into the topic you want to hear first!

This mega special goes around the world and back! The boys dive into some juicy topics like the human condition (“living the 9-5 life vs. smelling the flowers”), personal and corporate debts, a communist kangaroo, and challenges in today’s media workplace such as feminism and the pay gap. We also have a special guest today, the designer of our logo, Brazilian graphic designer/illustrator/animator...

Wel the kids of (at least some parts of) the world are headed back to school and for some kids (like Moe's baby sister), it's their very first day. THe boys talk about some of the major differences between German schools and American schools which leads to some pretty interesting food for thought about religion in schools, the Catholic system as a whole, Eastern and Western religions, and church &...

Moe and Jordan deliver a lenghty episode today as they sip red wine and discuss the new Christopher Nolan film Tenet, along with the new conflicting alcohol laws in Bavaria, time travel, and the best movie franchises ever - all leading up to a very funny but challenging game of "Would You Rather?" The boys dive deep and try to examine both sides of the argument given, opening up interesting views...

Moe and Jordan are back from vacation, sunburned, and ready to talk about everyone's favorite subject: Nudity. Being naked in Europe is more common than you might think, and the boys have some great stories about this. Topics include - the bold Nude Flute Man of Freibergsee, Jordan's first experience in a German sauna, and how jumping naked in the snow is considered normal. Jordan has also begun a...

So the boys both are on vacation this week. What does that mean for you guys? sadly no "new" episode BUT we would never let you down and collected some of the most beautiful stories we've heard throughout our first year of Artsy Fartness + some of our lovely guests give little updates on their current situation, living an artsy fartsy life. So go out, enjoy the sun and get your headphones on! -- L...
