Season 4 Episode 2 (51) On this episode Bobby Talks....w/ Byron Goggin a 13 time Emmy winning Cinematographer made his directorial debut with his documentary, "Kiss the Babies." A documentary tackling the chid gun violence in America. Byron and I discuss all things from responsible common sense gun laws to how the communities have failed our youth. Reasons for why youth turn to such devastating and fatal choices and what the statistics are. This conversation gets intensely passionate as you would expect as Byron discusses how he has completely abandoned all hope that the Government will do what's right and believes that we the people need and can do more on these hard hitting issues.

Season 4 premiere Episode 1 (50) of Bobby Talks...w/Jess Aycock licensed therapist specializing in the world of taboo topics. All things from sexuality, spirituality, and non-traditional relationships. Jess and I sat down to dissect the American Relationship today and why they are failing as well as not even happening. I make the case that it starts with teenagers and their interactions with one and other on social media. We present alarming statistics such as female depression and sadness, males under 30 haven't had sex in the past year at all. All of these variables play a part in the decline of the American Relationship. We talk about hypersexuality among teens or is it really just the empowerment of an entire generation of young females. All that and so much more!

Season 3 Episode 9 (49) Bobby Talks...w/ Captain Kevin McQuiston about his chase for immortality as he prepares for his quest to become the first American Sailor to sail around the world non-stop by himself. Being dubbed the LA2LA Global Challenge. Immortality is the theme of this show but we talk in great length about so many different themes and topics. Buddhism, mindfulness, extreme consciousness, entitlement & ego and so much more. As Kevin breaks down the ins and outs of his trip we get to know more about the man and what kind of man it takes to take on such a adventure. Risk it all for the just a chance. It's simple, shut it down and miss the beauty. Great episode and one you will definitely enjoy! 

Season 3 Episode 8 (48) Bobby Talks...w/ Dan Faill Professional Speaker with Keynotes on Leadership & Imposter Syndrome. Dan and I sat down and discussed Leadership in today's society. Are there any real leaders left?  He introduces the Platinum Rule in contrast to the Golden Rule and explains the differences and why knowing those differences could be the deciding factor when leading a group of people. Other areas of topic are the intangibles of leadership and why so often we fail to meet those expectations. This was a great conversation with a wildly entertaining and informative Dan Faill. His energy easily carries the interview and all topics covered. Enjoy!

Season 3 Episode 7 (47) Bobby Talks...w/ Chris Everett owner and creator of the The GAP Toledo an organization specializing in the void between the decision to get help and strategic placement into appropriate treatment. However, even that is a vague explanation. Talking with Chris Everett, Isaac Verdugo, and Julie O'Grady recovering addicts and those who have spent significant time between addiction and recovery, these 3 explain how they work in the "Grey" areas of life and do what's necessary to help those who desperately need it when the system only focuses on the "green." They share their own personal stories and struggles with addiction as well as their road to recovery. This one can be personal but it also can be life changing. Enjoy! 

Season 3 Episode 6 (46) Bobby Talks...w/ Ann Kaplan Parent Coach out of Denver, Colorado. Ann brought fascinating discussion and fresh perspective to the challenges that parents are facing today. Do you feel like you're failing? Good! "That's how we learn." Failing forward as a parent is ok because we're showing up to the task. Ann and I spent almost an hour and a half discussing nature v.s. nurture, reversing your parent philosophy, mind-body connection, importance of language, and so so much more. This discussion was intended to help all of us parents, guardians, aunt's/uncles, grand-parents who feel overwhelmed and need a new approach. I promise you won't find someone better than Ann to learn from as she leaves the judgement at the door. No better guest for the 46th installment of Bobby Talks...

Season 3 Episode 5 (45) Bobby Talks...w/ Nate Dungey a Solo Traveler from Texas currently residing in Vancouver, British Columbia as an Environmentalist major. Nate has been traveling the countrysides of the United States and Canada living out of his car and off of Government land for over 2 months isolating himself from societies noise and materialistic pursuits. We converse about his travels and the reasons deep inside of ourselves that propel us forward to live life this way chasing down experiences of a life time. We speak on personal legend and following our omens. Also, we breakdown what is gained and lost from trying to achieve self-discovery and being obsessively self aware. This was a great conversation with someone who might just inspire you to do the same thing. Be sure to follow him on tik tok and instagram @ the_lifeof_nate. 

Season 3 Episode 4 (44) Bobby Talks...w/ Roman Prokopchuk creator and host of the "Digital Savage" podcast about the implications of growing up without our father figures being our father figures. We talk about the comparisons to a distant father v.s. an abusive one. We also ask the question, "Can they be forgiven?" Unfortunately, this conversation is a topic far too familiar for far too many people. Specifically those from the Millennial generation. Roman and I discuss the challenges of a Baby Boomer male and what life must have been like for them growing up and why they chose the route of parenting in which they did. If you yourself feel like you were without a father or even a parent growing up. This conversation is the one for you. Another interesting note we touched on is Roman is a Ukrainian Immigrant who was born into a Soviet Union controlled Ukraine so we spend the first 10 minutes getting his perspective not the invasion.

Season 3 Episode 3 (43) Bobby Talks...w/ Nathan Dufour - Philosophy Professor / Poet / Producer . In this episode Nate and I discussed topics range from What is the Value of Human Life? / Stoicism / Tik Tok / Pan-Psychism / Can consciousness be predicted? And so much more!!! We dove into whether or not it is possible to conclude upon an answer in regards to human life value because the lens in which we examine through constantly depend on the circumstances. Nathan introduces many concepts into this episode but one is the idea of modern stoicism v.s. traditional. Are we missing the point of it all? Finally we discuss his ability to rap and his vision to bring education and rap together. Great episode! Outstanding individual and profound thinker. Hope you enjoy!

Season 3 Episode 2 (42), Bobby Talks...w/ Kari Gundersen an Abortion Doula and Registered Therapeutic Counselor out of Vancouver, Canada about the latest documents to leak from the Supreme Court about the overturning potential of Roe v. Wade. Right from the tip of this one Kari and myself dive into the different talking points of when does "personhood" begin? Canada's healthcare system v.s. United States. Abortions on Demand. Moral v.s. Criminal debate. How far does consent go? and where does it end? We even dove into the financials and technology of the future on abortions and whether or not technology will save us altogether from having to continue the argument. Fascinating and contentious at times. One of the best guests and conversations ever recorded on Bobby Talks...Enjoy!
