Flying Intuition

Had a great time with Grace on this one getting the chance to chop it up near the end of the school year. One of the busiest weekends in Madison was just wrapping up at the time this episode was recorded. Madison, WI boasts Mifflin Street Block Party. A long-standing tradition that always falls on the last weekend in April, right as classes are wrapping up. Grace and I got the chance to reflect on...

The penultimate episode. Next week will be the last episode of The Badger Variety Hour. But before we all start crying, here is the second to last episode. The build-up to the finale and the perhaps the point in time that is most important to the overall picture. Live from WSUM 91.7 FM, this is episode 37 of The Badger Variety Hour.

Life is tough. Ultimately, emotions intertwine all of our lives and partially influence how we act each and every day. In this episode, I try to take a step back and instead of micro-analyzing the "why" for every emotion just simply accepting the feelings that arise throughout my day and remain content within them. Sometimes there isn't a reason why you feel the way you do and this week I've disco...

Matt comes back for his second appearance onto the show. A lot has happened since his original appearance on episode 25, including a name change (previously known as Matt Blaustein). Kanter now moves onward to a new era in his life, one filled without classes and exams but still with plenty of learning ahead of him. This is Matt Kanter for the first (or second) time on Flying Intuition. I’ll leave...

Recorded live on 4/19/23 on WSUM 91.7 FM. Jeremy Fleck and Charles Monroe's personal radio talk show.

You choose your perspective on life. Is it one which you make out to be like everyone else’s? Or is it a life unique to you only? A daily adventure where you pick exactly where you want to go and what to take on next.

Patty Gannon folks. Econ legend. Tennis star. He’ll take you down the line every time and you still won’t be able to stop it. What more needs to be said? This is Patrick Gannon.

Shoutout to Morgan Lekschas for the fire idea for this episode. Ok, ok, I know what it sounds like. Jeremy got his heart broken, oh god. You thought. Go check it out for yourself. This is a good one. Kind of like all of the other episodes?!

The first ever guest to premiere twice on Flying Intuition. Alex and the Host kicked off their first recording together during episode #22, where they proceeded to have one of the most fire conversations known to man. Episode #56 is no different. In this one you'll be sure to find quite a big difference over 30 episodes and 9 months later. With the Host now living with Alex, conversations have tur...

Two very special guests premiered on The Badger Variety Hour this past Wednesday. Mabel and Ila, two WSUM members themselves, made an appearance onto the show. They also have their own show called The After School Debate Club that airs from 6-7pm on WSUM's website. So I guess you could call this episode a little Badger Variety Hour x After School Debate Club collab...tune in!

In this episode I emphasize how important gratitude is. Really taking in your life for what it is: one day, one hour, one minute at a time. Not living for tomorrow or yesterday, but chasing after the moment and remaining present within it. Because, in reality, that's all we really have—right now.

An amazing time with the most patient guest to date. After many months of waiting for the host to respond to an email he failed to notice, a recent conversation finally brought to fruition how long Ksena had been waiting to come onto Flying Intuition. This past Sunday marked the recording of a legendary episode with Ksena. I would give a synopsis, but this one is just too good to spoil. You'll jus...

Charles, Myself, and a whole lot of good times on 91.7 WSUM:)

Do you like cookie cutter shapes? Good, me neither. We're throwing them out in this episode. Once you do that, you shape the cookie yourself. No way. You guessed it. It's a metaphor. You're the cookie, and you decide how to shape your life. Do you want to fit it into a shape already carved out for you by society? Or try something new that speaks to you? This one is called Cookie Cutter, this is Li...

An absolute legend from small-town Minnesota came through on this one for an absolute banger of an episode. In this insanely fire pic you get a terrible angle of Jacob (#22) breaking his wrist. On top of the pic, we both give you over two hours of content to soothe your soul as two midwestern dawgs talk it up. An absolute goon, and a pleasure having on—this is Jacob Dirschel.

The long-awaited kings are back at it in the studio once again. Charles, Jeremy, and some crisp conversation to soothe your soul.

Had some big boy thoughts over spring break this past week...those tend to get weaved into Life of the Germ for y'all to tune into. Here they are... ~Enjoy~

Riley and the host go back to high school where they ran cross country with each other back in the day. Currently living in Oshkosh, WI, Riley has his own podcast called Nothing2Lose. Started earlier this year, Riley has featured many guests on his podcast already. Riley also hints at some future plans has for his show in this episode. The Host of Flying Intuition will soon be coming on Nothing2Lo...

Jon, also known as "Binker" around the streets of Oshkosh, WI, made an epic appearance onto episode 52 last night. Jon recently graduated from UW-Oshkosh with a degree in marketing, where he quickly realized like many other college students that no job is guaranteed following college. After some hard work he stumbled upon a pretty sweet gig at Silver Star Brands. Here, he gets to harness his creat...

We're back and buzzin' on Life of the Germ. It's spring break and we're feeling real good. The best vacation money can by—getting back to the hometown and slowly reviving. I've been thinking an awful lot about how to grow in life. Having the courage to take a jump is what it's all about. Ambition is such a powerful tool, and when used in the right instances has huge pay offs in the long run. Here'...

Positivity is the name and me failing to rhyme is the game. Spoken through the lens of a positive-thinker, I hop on this episode to explain how seeing things in a positive light can completely turn your life around. So much of how you think on a day-to-day basis can impact your well-being in the long run. Taking advantage of a positive mindset has had obvious improvements on my well-being, and I'm...

Huge shoutout to Sal for being the first grad student to come on the pod! Sal is currently a Master's student in the Agroecology program at UW-Madison. Quickly approaching his thesis defense this spring, he plans to graduate with Jeremy in spring '23. Sal and Jeremy started working together on his project this past summer. Many of the details of the project are sprinkled in throughout this episode...

The Lekschas Sisters come on to be the first ever recorded Badger Variety Hour episode to have two guests on at once! I forgot to turn on Brenna's mic for the first couple of minutes to kick off the episode (obviously a prank). It was soon followed by the live workings of a professional movie coming out to theaters near you very soon. Live from 91.7 WSUM, this is the BVH with Swizzy J, Charles, an...

Well into the heart of the semester at this point, having a schedule for yourself is critical. If you’re as forgetful as me, well, first I feel bad for you. Second, we need to get you a nice discount planner from TJ Maxx and you’ll be styling. Life of the Germ. We back
