After two long years, I released my second album under The Criminal Kid. It's been over a decade since TCK's first album. Unsurprisingly, this one is a departure - in no small part because it's a solo effort as opposed to a full band thing (though I collaborated with talented musicians.) 

You can find information on the album here (including where to stream/purchase it):

Thanks for listening!

In the first interview I've ever done on this channel, I have a conversation with my long-time friend and fellow entrepreneur David Roman. He runs Roman Empire Studios, where he does all kinds of audio projects for people, including mastering the tracks on my upcoming album. He's also a great musician and producer! Check out his project Femme Fragile and new single "Bitter": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0_w6P9AP5ho  

This episode is part of a longer conversation, which you can check out over on his channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjUGPhstpT8  

The track we mention collaborating on many years ago (Sleep in the Ocean) can be found here: https://davidroman.bandcamp.com/track/sleep-in-the-ocean

For the last 6ish years, I've made the goal to read 52 books a year because I love reading. This habit has enriched my life in more ways than I can count, and I expect to read voraciously the rest of my life. Enjoy, and happy new year!

In today's episode, I muse on the idea of truth, and the most reliable method to uncover it. How do you know if you, or your group, holds a false belief? 

Enjoy, and happy holidays! 

A simple idea I've been mulling over which you also might find useful - the idea of "detail obsession" being several steps past "enthusiasm" when it comes to your interests, talents and passions. Where do you obsess on the details? Where do you experience the least resistance to this detail focus?
