better late than never, though never late is better. 2019 was many things for me. I changed jobs, moved across the country, traveled on hree continents, and listened to a lot of great music through all of it.  

life is pretty hectic, wherever you are these days. it's especially good to remember two things: 

1. there are some great things about your country of residence

2. it's pretty shit all 'round so may as well have a bit of fun

special thank you's to my friends Lizi, Colin, and Josh who all made their own contributions to this episode. 

a mixtape for my friend Andrew's 30th birthday. 

this week my dad would have turned 64. this one's for him. 

collection of songs from the past month or so. stay together. stay positive.

so I woke up a bit early this morning and put this together in under three hours. I didn't really soundcheck it. didn't listen to it 10x before sharing. sometimes, as it is also with love, you have to just put yourself out there. so here you go.

hope it brightens your Valentines,

xo xo Charles.

2018 was quiiiite a year. this was how it sounded

apologies for the delay and the constant teasing... episode three is *finally* here. I had a lot of fun putting this one together. there's finally a bit of summer happening in San Francisco and it's seeped into this podcast properly. I also did a tribute to Mac Miller.

I'm happy to say it did not take me another year+ to post a new episode. just a collection of songs I've been listening to lately!

the very first episode: 

after far too much time off, it's time to finally post a new podcast, under a new name. I Made You A Tape was an idea I had a few months ago to start making mix tapes. while the cassette recorder I purchased did not work as planned, I was still able to use it for sound effects. this one's just me, looking forward to hosting a few friends soon!!
