In this episode I take a, much deserved, shot at the people who wear stupid clothes at music festivals (specifically Coachella and Boots n Hearts). I also answer the first listener question and dive into the difference between performing at a pub VS performing at a live music venue.

In this episode we are going to talk about getting sponsored. We'll talk about what exactly companies are looking for, why you shouldn't be discouraged if you don't have the attention needed to get Coca Cola to pay for your Insta-pics, and the research YOU need to do to find a company you believe in partnering with. 

We also dissect the song "Semi-Charmed Life" by Third Eye Blind in a brand new segment called "You Should Know That, It's Your Song"

In this episode of the podcast I illustrate just how possible it is to not only make a living as a musician, but make a comfortable living as a full-time musician. We talk about a lot of stuff, a lot of arbitrary numbers get tossed out into the atmosphere during this podcast, just keep this in mind; you CAN be a full-time musician and be a home owner, parent, vehicle owner, etc. You just have to work hard.

In this episode I dive deep into what I do to learn new music and some common misconceptions that separate the artist from the audience (specifically in the Pub scene). This is both for musicians AND for fans, that need a little bit of perspective when it comes to this side of the business. Bottom line: I WANT TO PLAY YOUR REQUEST!

We go absolutely nuts in this episode. I take on big business and the system, man, as I criticize people that need to purchase stuff to feel like they are a part of something. I also talk about why people that suck at jobs they hate won't be successful in their dream job, and I outline healthy eating on a budget, because it wouldn't be me if I didn't talk about food!

A brutally honest look into my struggles with depression over the last couple of days. What scares me about it, what keeps me going when in a rut, and what some of my personal remedies are. 

This podcast isn't glamorous. This podcast is a raw look at the inner torment we all can feel from time to time. It would have been cleaner if I had recorded a pro episode, or put together an outtakes episode, but I don't believe in that. If my honesty can he;p even one person then I have done my job. 

Let's end fake media. Your life isn't perfect, and neither is mine.
