Nothing too heavy, just some great stories of temporary life in Washington State and feeling the rain, the fish, the chicken teriyaki and the lawlessness, being a family man and becoming a member of The Polynesian MC, taking a loooong ride on his new Harley and how he likes speeding down the road while eating bugs.

1:42:10

Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Holidays, the cold weather of Minnesota is here but things are nice and toasty in the podcast shack! Just Pearce and Milo having a Thanksgiving catch up and shootin' the shit about dogs and turtles, the tv show "From" (spoiler alert- we give a lot away about the latest season finale starting around the 27 minute marker). We also get into the perils of bingeing and obsessing over TV and what it might say about our relation to the world and it's going to Hell-ness, plus talk about Cormac McCarthy, Pat Metheny and Jaco Pastorius and that old question, what do artists lose as they get older and what do they gain? You know, just another long distance sit down around the pod fire. Gobble Gobble, mofos!

Aarne Lofgren: A Well Respected Man 1:09:51

21 weeks ago1:09:51

1:09:51

Serendipity! We actually recorded this episode in August right before Milo moved back to NYC and before the election changed life as we thought we knew it. But it turns out there's no better tonic for the blues than a laugh filled swim in Hudson river life with our pal, Aarnuts. He's as authentic a human being as you could ever hope to meet and our conversation lifts off like a rocket as we talk about NY life, theater- on stage, off stage and even on the sidewalk, brotherhood, sisterhood, family, taking a chance, the power of love and the power of a washtub bass. Get ready to feel something other than sadness and resentment and disbelief and BELIEVE in the power of Aarne! Growing Up Naked theme composed, arranged and performed by Isaac Dell Music: Take A Chance on Me, written by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus and performed by ABBA A Well Respected Man, Written by Ray Davies and performed by The Kinks…

1 year ago2:18:09

2:18:09

Milo's on their own in NYC, flourishing, struggling and wrastlin' with the good and the less good, magnificently. No context in this episode- just pure, raw conversation. If there's a theme, it's what's underneath. A conversation that takes the road less travelled and feels the truth of winter coming. Sleeplessness, Rhett and Link, Marsha P. Johnson, Angry Birds, Minnie Riperton, String Cheese Incident, neurodivergence, committing a content-focused epistemic injustice, window salesmen and gender are all on the path. We're doing what we do best- loving each other and listening. Growing Up Naked theme composed, performed and produced by Isaac Dell Music- Les Fleurs, sung by Minnie Riperton from the album "Come to my Garden" Take Five, performed by String Cheese Incident from the album "Carnival '99" For more information about Marsha P. Johnson, go to- https://wams.nyhistory.org/growth-and-turmoil/growing-tensions/marsha-p-johnson/ For more information about Minnie Ripperton and String Cheese Incident- https://www.allmusic.com/artist/minnie-riperton-mn0000500889#biography https://www.stringcheeseincident.com…

But now he's in the BIG APPLE-ISS and THIS IS OUR FIRST LONG DISTANCE EPISODE!
