When is it Time to Let Go? 18.02.2025 19:59
After illness, I'm back and reflecting hard on this one since I have clothing and a professional career I'm looking at where changes should be made. This is the first evening dress I got and I wore it to my sorority chapter's Installation banquet. Debating on whether to keep that or not.
Fake Generosity 13.01.2025 15:46
Who hates when someone offers you something, you take it and then your acceptance is thrown back in your face? Is it a difference between dog people and cat people? Random Gideon Bible here since God sides with me on this topic.
Is Bureaucracy Inevitable? 06.01.2025 18:50
I've pondered this for years and still don't have an answer. Also, life updates. For those unfamiliar, this is the old 5 Pointz in Queens. It was destroyed by bureaucracy and the problem I'm mentioning here.
Murdering CEOs and Cockroach Types 09.12.2024 19:22
Musings about the recent CEO shooting in NYC and the sudden concern of Jordan Neely's family in light of the Daniel Penny trial. I saw this at a weekend flea market and it sums up the sentiment around the recent CEO shooting even though that guy killed him vs. just kicking his butt.
Death 18.11.2024 20:05
In light of recent death affecting me and having dealt with it a lot before, I figured now was the time to do that episode. This is Grim from "The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy," a great show you should see if you can. Grim has a Jamaican accent and, of course, he's the Grim Reaper so only fitting that he be the pic here.
Don't Get Sexually Involved with Siblings or Friends 11.11.2024 20:03
Unless you like creating drama or have a death wish, you don't do this. I have a sister and if you dated her, I'm not dating you. No exceptions. Random Subway artwork that sums it up nicely.
New Mic & Trying a Video Format 04.11.2024 20:03
I got a new mic so trying out a video format with some musings. Next week, I'll be having a guest and hopefully you won't be seeing my cat's butt on camera.
The Hidden Lawyer Life and Returning Home 21.10.2024 19:58
This realization was shocking to me. I was also testing out my wireless mic and the cat jumped on me so pardon any audio messiness. Pic is from the Judge Jerry set. I still maintain he'd have been a great president but more on that in a future episode.
Unintended Consequences and Things Looking Up 06.10.2024 16:44
The age old issue of long lines at the ladies room died with the transgender people (particularly women) getting to use the ladies rooms. What's good for the goose and all that. Saw this street artwork at random one day. Anyone got a comment or ideas on that one?
What is Drama, Exactly? 30.09.2024 19:26
The term "drama" is very subjective when it comes to relationships but I finally figured out what that means for me. Pic is a Bob Ross Pop doll. His passing involves a LOT of drama; check out the Netflix documentary on that one.
Trampolines and Rage Rooms Will Solve Our Problems 23.09.2024 19:04
They will. I just learned about the concept of rage rooms this week. The pic is what the inside of the trampoline park I went to looked like (but not the same place I went--I found this image at random).
Should Men Pay for Dates? Heck, Yeah!! Ask Me Why. 16.09.2024 20:32
It's an age old topic but I bring a nuanced take and a recent event (recorded Sunday so "last night" refers to Saturday night). These are unstuffed peppers I made for me at home. This is the type of cooking skill I have that makes me a rarity in NYC.
Video Podcast Interview with Author Ray Johnson 23.06.2024 29:10
Interview with Ray Johnson, author of the new book "Conspiracy Ignited" which you can learn more about here: https://raymondpauljohnson.com/conspiracy-ignited/
I'm Not a Musical Theater Person 09.06.2024 20:10
I recently participated in a karaoke contest and found myself in a fundamental disagreement over how one should approach singing for an audience. The next episode will likely be another interview so check it out once that's done. Got this pic on a Yelp Elite outing to Blue Lounge. I believe it was in February 2020, the last event I went to before NYC officially went to Pandemic Hell.
God's Timing and Wolf Whistles 14.05.2024 20:38
I got a new job in the nick of time and comment on how to effectively approach women. Took this pic in the subway ages ago and holding firm to this is how I've managed to make it in life.
Road Trips 29.04.2024 21:23
My experience with road tripping and how to do it right. This is a pic I took of the Arkansas border, as that is part of the road trip I took with my friend to CA. I was in a better position to get those pics in that one.
Must You Be a Kid Touching Creep to Be an Entertainment Mogul? 07.04.2024 20:19
With all the recent documentaries, I'm seriously left with that question and feel it's a strong argument for the presence of general/in-house counsel in entertainment companies. This pic is of a street in LA I traveled on while on a road trip with a friend of mine in 2019.
Church Etiquette 01.04.2024 20:35
Recorded this on Easter so I figured it was a good time to speak on an article I read about whether it's okay to drink coffee in church or not. Pic is of an actual church with pews and the books visitors can use to participate in services
Outsourcing Online Dating & My Job Hunt 24.03.2024 20:21
Just read a story about people outsourcing their online dating, which I find unethical and more job woes I hope a reverse recruiter will solve. Pic is a random sign I saw in NYC that also is accurate
Searching for Your Tribe 18.03.2024 20:50
A very busy week and finding yet another rejection in the law firm world has led to a major epiphany: get away from the law firm set and the 80% of jerks within it. Took this pic one day at the courthouse and it sums up what many people, including some lawyers, think of the legal industry itself (including the experience of going to court).
Collarless Cats & Challenges 10.03.2024 20:57
Lots of life updates and unexpected events. I took this pic at a casino in Atlantic City when I was on a top deck. It feels like my life is the ocean and I'm looking at it from this vantage.
Changing the Focus 13.02.2024 20:07
I've been super busy lately and definitely trying to focus on gratitude, what I do have and so forth. This is a pic of one side of my vision board. By the way, they DO work.
Mixed Signals and Clinginess 30.01.2024 20:17
Getting flowers from an undesirable source, celebrating your friend's birthday and why you don't give mixed signals to people. These are the flowers I mention. Also, the bell ringing is my cat's collar.
Public Assistance is a Cry for Help 17.01.2024 21:18
The changing perceptions of being on public assistance & some of what that experience is like. This pic is of a damaged car I saw in the neighborhood I lived in when I was married. It feels like a fitting metaphor for this episode.
How 2023 Made Me Stronger 01.01.2024 20:55
I saw this question in a group I'm part of and had to really think of an answer but I figured it out. This is a random stock pic but it feels accurate to my state and what the future holds.
