Podience, sometimes you start a recording mired in the assumption that you have much to say, but simply make an a** of both your Podience and me for your words are but sparse and brief; other times, you enter the fray, with little to say, and then BAM... you've captured 10,000 aural words on display! This began as a teaser but morphed, unexpectedly, into a full-blown fuc**** pleaser. I hate cell phones, in a multitude of circumstances, and inescapable, unwanted public passerby conference calls are no exception. Let's put aside my aversion to the technological illogical so I can spread some auditory holiday cheer through the ladder half of this Chemohawk Sessions Short speaking to the value of gifting others a platform, the spotlight and asking them all the right fstars questions so they can reveal the layers of their lives. Unwind, with me, this chilly daily grind and remember to always be kind while you unwind. Keep your cell phones and gaudy, egotistical wrist phones away from sight; instead, converse with a stranger, face-to-face under the full moon light. Season's fuc**** Greetings, Podience!
