In this solo, I open up about the changes, losses, and lessons shaping my life right now. The death of Charlie Kirk, celebrating my best friend Patrick in Pittsburgh, and saying goodbye to my mentee Jayden, my roommate Josh, and his dog Duke.

I do a Q&A that dives into small-town memories, high school days before technology took over, and how community used to feel — and how we can get back to that.

I also share lighter moments like writing music with my best friend, and barber in a barbershop. Looking ahead to resetting my life after this weekend, endorsing a hometown candidate for city council, and reacting to a Joe Rogan clip I saved.

This episode is raw, personal, and real. Hopefully you don't mind my rambling too much. If something here hits you, share it. Let's all make togetherness louder than division!
