We just vibing and playing in hobbies.

What happens when the messiest person in the room is exactly who you didn't expect?

In this episode, I break down All Her Fault—a psychological thriller that starts as a story about an overwhelmed mother and an seemingly aloof husband, then spirals into something far more twisted. What begins as a missing child case becomes a meditation on motherhood, loss, and the lies we tell to survive. But here's the thing: the show doesn't let anyone off the hook. Not the mother. Not the father. Not even the detective trying to piece it all together.

I explore the gendered weight of parenting, the fragility of trust, and how small deceptions snowball into catastrophe. There's also that viral tweet—"Think of the messiest bitch. It's a man, ain't it?"—which basically sums up the entire show. I thought I knew where this was going. I was wrong.

This episode is for anyone who loves sharp storytelling, psychological depth, and media that makes you question your own assumptions. It's also for parents, therapists, and anyone fascinated by how people unravel under pressure.

If you've ever wondered how much a person can carry before they break—or how blame gets distributed when everything falls apart—this one's for you.

In this raw, slightly unfiltered episode, I'm riffing off the dome after a recording mishap forced me to start fresh. Sometimes the burnt toast theory means you just gotta make new toast.

We're diving into: • The Minnesota shooting and why "white on white crime" matters • Human Design: Why I had to stop acting like a Generator • The Two of Swords and why nobody's coming to save you • Micro states theory and the future of American politics • Metro Boomin's "Heroes & Villains" hitting different when you're going through it • Why self-improvement isn't optional when your back's against the wall

This is me being real about burnout, boundaries, and what it means to finally trust your own authority in 2025.

Welcome to Gather Them Podcast! In this episode, host Jerome dives deep into Digimon Ghost Game, exploring how this beloved childhood franchise evolved into something unexpectedly dark and thought-provoking.

From spine-chilling horror elements to compelling themes around AI, technology, and digital dependency, this season pushes boundaries while maintaining the core Digimon spirit. Jerome discusses the show's incredible music (Monster Disco!), innovative character designs, emotional voice acting, and the unsettling way it mirrors our current relationship with technology and generative AI.

Released during the 2021 pandemic, Ghost Game explores isolation, digital ghosts, and the blurred lines between the digital and human worlds. While the ending left something to be desired, the journey is worth every haunting moment.

Plus: A sneak peek at what's coming with Digimon BEATBREAK!

New episodes every Wednesday featuring media reviews, books, movies, TV shows, and music.

This episode marks my return to the podcast after a long pause.

This is not a crisis update. I’m safe, grounded, and in a much better place now.
This is a reflective conversation about why I stepped away, what the past year required of me, and why I needed to close that chapter before moving forward.

I introduce what I call my “2025 Trauma Cake” — a way of naming the layers of this year without sensationalizing them. Not everything is shared here, and that’s intentional.

The full 1 hour 22 minute episode, where I walk through 2025 month by month and talk about what I built during that time (including future projects), is available on Patreon.

This extended version is shared in a private container. If you choose to listen, please receive it with care and do not repost, summarize, or circulate it elsewhere.

This week, I’m celebrating the third anniversary of GatherThem Podcast! It’s been a journey, and I’m proud to have kept this project alive despite the ups and downs. In this episode, I open up about my recent hospital stay, dealing with kidney health challenges, and how it’s forced me to reflect on self-care, resilience, and the power of trusting my intuition.

I’ll also share my thoughts on navigating the systemic challenges we all face—whether it’s work, healthcare, or just trying to find balance in a chaotic world. Plus, with Pluto now in Aquarius, I dive into the rapid changes happening in technology, the push for self-sovereignty, and why I think staying ahead of the curve is more important than ever.

Through it all, I’m learning to embrace change, trust my instincts, and build a community of like-minded individuals who are ready to grow and thrive. Additionally I discuss the UnitedHealth CEO murder, the recent Jay-Z scandal, and my thoughts on Chipotle raising their prices in 2025.

Join me as I reflect on the past, look to the future, and celebrate this incredible milestone with all of you.

This week, I’m just limping to my barn with an episode that feels like a glitch in the matrix. We’re touching on post-election vibes, life updates, Quantum Baby, and why some young artists deserve more love. Plus, my November plans: turning frustration into focus and figuring out what’s next. Let’s get into it.

Disclaimer: Sorry there is no video episode this week due to tech difficults.

In this chilling finale of My Halloween Horror Haven series, we dive into fear and pain—two powerful themes that dominate both the horror genre and life itself. I’ll share some personal updates, including funny moments with my Tales from the Crypt poster and the technical challenges I’ve faced this fall. I explore some of the fun Fall activities I did this fall.

In My Media Corner, we’ll explore two Rick and Morty episodes, “Night Family” and “Fear No Mort,” breaking down how fear and pain drive the characters and plots.

In my final thoughts, I’ll reflect on the recent passing of my brother and the fears I faced in coming out to him. This personal reflection brings to light why confronting these fears ultimately allowed me to embrace authenticity and acceptance. Join me for a close to this series, where we explore the impact of fear, pain, and love in the face of life’s most challenging moments.

In this episode of My Halloween Horror Haven, I’m joined by my longtime friend Sabria, a fellow horror aficionado, writer, and creator. We take a deep dive into all things spooky, from our earliest memories of loving horror to our favorite movies. Tune in as we explore the dynamics of power, race, and queer identities through the lens of Interview with the Vampire, discussing how the show reimagines Louis as a Black man and reflects the struggles of marginalized identities.

Plus, we play a fun, vampire-themed game of "Turn or Feed," where we imagine which celebrities we’d turn into vampires or feed on for their talents. Ever wondered what a vampire Beyoncé or Harriet Tubman would be like? Sabria also shares her thoughts on the space for Black and queer people in horror, offering insights into representation in modern horror films and where we still need progress.

Don’t miss this fun and insightful conversation between two horror lovers who’ve been friends since the early 2000s!
