58. ANOTHER Lost and Super Late Episode / Don't Be An ANNNNOUNCER 21.11.2023

Greetings, Remember me? It's been over a year since I last published. I am still here. Life has gotten pretty distracting. What is it from? Not entirely sure. Maybe because I am now 30. Oh the joy I forgot about in releasing new episodes. This one is more late than episode 57. Time to be more intentional about things and get back on the horse. I will chime in again soon :) Topics start at 4:51! To...

57. The Lost and Super Late Episode / My Corneas! 11.10.2022

Hey stranger! This episode sat and marinated for a couple of months before making it's way to here. Now it is happy! I moved, again, and live JUST outside of Atlanta. There is a NEW garden with mostly NEW plants and NEW soil which I am excited about. NEW soil means NEW things. I turned a bunch of basil into pesto, yum. Not only is this episode happy, I am happy. I hope you are happy :) Topics star...

56. Fooooooooood / Improv! 22.02.2022

Wowser, Good things take time. I can't believe the last episode was basically a month ago. Yawn. Time to sleep! No wonder it took so long! Some of this gets weighty. Call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline's phone number is 800-273-8255 if you are having suicidal thoughts. Please do not try to live this life alone. You are worth it and are very much loved! I made a foam model of my bedroom....

53. Brace yourself / A couple clips to hit 19 minutes 30.03.2021

Hi, It has been an honor and great adventure to spend time with this vocal diary and post it vulnerably for the world to hear. It feels like it is time for me though to process through other creative outlets. This outlet has been a huge blessing and I hope it was somewhat inspirational to you as it was to me. The next episode will include three more topics and some more heartfelt thoughts. I will...

52. And I just can't pull myself away / MIC CHECK!!! 23.03.2021

Woof, My friend had his truck stolen today :( The police found it though! Somewhere on a dirt road maybe 45 miles from its home. This hurt my heart. The thieves stole a lot of other things which belonged to the owner. This too hurt my heart. God knows where everything and everyone is!! Yawn, it's only after midnight here, WHOOPS. I will try not to do that again. Hope you are doing ok :) Romans 8:2...

51. Where's the chicken? / Solar Oven 16.03.2021

48. Hello from the other side / Atlanta x4 23.02.2021

How YOU doin? The weather has been either nice and spring-like or ICE COLD. BRRRRRRR. I am moving across town soon. I just deleted all my social media accounts (TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, Snapchat, Instagram, Linkedin) and talk about why. Talk includes the season of lent and my previous porn addiction. 5:09 to 9:26. By the way, if you delete social media they give you 30 days to change your mind....

47. Funky Town / Buhhh duhhhh buhhhh 16.02.2021

HElloooooo :) This week I am deleting social media so it is going to be a weird adventure. Stay tuned for more information next week! This episode I think is harmless, some of the things inside can be dangerous but they wont hurt your ears. I reference the breakfast story with Jesus and his disciples John 21: 1-14. Topics start at 8:07! To when there is the speed of light To when I went hunting To...

46. Triple numbness / Rocket ship 09.02.2021

Hey pal, Fun fact: Someone in high school introduced me to the word "pal" and every time I say it I think of her :') As we speak, the right half of my face (including my teeth) are numb :p The numbness made it's way to my ear even. Uhhhhhhhhh. Why my dentist wanted me triple numbed, I do not know. Here we are though! (what else can I tell you right now?) Quack! There is a simple interactive prayer...

45. No more cookie dough / Nylon and Polyester 02.02.2021

Well hello there friend, I made another batch of cookie dough and cannot figure out which ingredient I forgot to add :( Does anybody know? Or maybe I put too much butter in it. Bleh! I think all of these topics are somewhat dangerous so please either do not try them at home or be very very careful when doing them. Topics start at 6:51! To when I made a giant snapper bomb To when you smell too many...

44. Rooftops / Crazy laughter 26.01.2021

Well, wow. Haha hi :p Emotions.

43. Polly / ello there! 19.01.2021

BLLLAAAAAAAHHHHHH, Hi :) All of the sudden it feels like there's a lot of stuff to get done. (Deep breaths.) Church and God and Jesus are sprinkled throughout this.

To when you play computer games Genesis 3: 8-9 To when you feel slowed down Romans 8: 28 To when it...

42. D0m!n!0n / I am a monkey 12.01.2021

Wow this year is FLYING by! (Smirk) If you are sensitive to current events in the United States, I share my Georgia senate runoff story which runs from 1:26 to 4:43. Other than political vortexes, I guess there is a polar vortex coming to Georgia soon so standby for how it goes. New things with me... I have an inhaler now, but hopefully won't need to use it ever. I have a desk job where I joyfully...

40. I'll talk to you in 2021! / Bass 29.12.2020
