Pineapple Blunt Rotation

Checking in for the season and giving some big life updates. Talking about taking a career break, about community, and the everyday that makes up most of your life. And some of the usual BS.  Cheers

We are joined by the one and only Valante, a successful music producer AND teacher AND a fan of the podcast since DAY 1 (insane) to talk about how his life, including all the struggles, has molded and inspired his art. We learn a lot about the creative process, life in Sweden, and the joy of existence.

My (Devam's) debut solo episode. Listen at your own discretion. I go through some of the questions y'all asked me like: - What's it like being single? - What is the biggest thing I'm working on? - What is my chipotle order? - What is the biggest societal change I wish to see in our lifetimes? AND PLENTY MORE hope you enjoy my rambling PEAAACE
