Carmen's in the minivan in the garage making a clausterphobicky pod. Just back from Florida and his 3 weeks of gigging and traveling Carmen talks about boredom. Carmen says that you can trick your brain into believing that you got it better. The Bells and Whistles of life are just there to kill the boredom but you can kill the boredom with your own brain!! Scary.

Carmen is driving and recording the pod during the latest Florida Hurricane threat. As he drives he talks about being carefree, thinking twice and remembering to look at a picture of yourself from 10 years ago. Everything is closing because of the hurricane and Carmen needs to get doughnuts and flowers for his wife's birthday tomorrow. 

Carmen is in an AirBnb he doesn't trust. Maybe he's secretly being watched. He's not sure. He also doesn't like the weird smell at 3 am every night so he has to spray cologne on his upper lip before he goes to bed. This weekend he will be appearing at the Boca Black Box in Boca Raton and next week at Snappers in Ft. Myers. Come out and see hime for yourself.

Carmen talks about going to the Feast of the Assumption in Cleveland and his weekend. Also why he is not tough but people still call him boss. He also has no studio to record his pod so he abruptly ends the pod and does not explain that people just. came into the condo. 

This past weekend I had to go on the hunt with my cousin who's trying to find a new woman. Hunting is much harder than it is when you're young. You got to deal with public toilets, tall people, bar food, hard stools and so much more. Glad I hunted wisely 36 years ago. 

Do you have any problems? Keep it to yourself if you want to succeed. I think that is true. Act as if you're ok because we are judging you as an individual. This pod completely created on the fly and it shows. Sound quality decreased on this one because of the AC unit kicking on and off and because I'm still looking for a quiet place to produce the pod. Don't give up on me please.

Carmen discusses his recent experiences at Goodwill where the Goodwill Godfather uses the Goodwill receipts as currency. Carmen also talks about wanting to me in the mob for the wrong reasons. This pod recorded in a walk in closet.

Carmen talks about not getting where he wanted to be in his career. He would like hundreds of thousands of dollars in sponsorships but knows the chances are slimmer than ever. Carmen is 60 and he's not as upset about this as he used to be. Time has worn down his worries about not reaching his goals. He is content making a podcast that goes out to very few people. 

Doing the pod is harder now in a small space so I gotta wait until I'm alone. This is a quick pod that I rushed to do which is how I live my life in general. 

Carmen is in a hole and he likes it. He is on his own making a podcast about nothing important so you can have something in your life to enjoy
