Jabbology

Whoa boy, lookie what we have here!  Jabbology has been a tad stagnant for a few ticks, but I never stopped recording. There is a project near and dear to my heart and it's been dubbed Mashed Podatoes!

It was just an idea to record freely, with a group of people that I adore, the BFYTW crew. We logged a few episodes, but they haven't seen the light of day, until now. There is still a bit of work to do, theme songs, and all that jazz, but it's a crime to not put these out. 

So, here we go. The first recording of Mashed Podatoes. Well I get to chop it up with a well known beast of the podcast world, ol Midnight Smoke himself. We will be doing more, but this is the first thing we ever sat and did together. It's a funny and fantastic bit of back and forth, where I talk waaaay too much, and we get to find out some more about one of my favorite people. 

Just listen and if you enjoy it, there will absolutely be more to come. Well, honestly, there will be more to come anyways. lol. Enjoy!

Welcome weirdos! Did you know I have my own show? Of course you didn't. I mean, it's only been like nine months. It's ok, just your friendly neighborhood Jabbo doing what he does best. 

I have been a bit silent on the art toy front for a bit, now it's tome to find out why. I finally buckled down and committed to the dream of creating my very own first collectable art piece. I never really knew what to focus on, but I knew I wanted to design something that would absolutely require me to work WELL outside of my comfort zone and force me to grow as a person and as an artist. Enter Rafē. 

Come behind the scenes (so to speak), as I fill you in on what Rafē is, why I decided to make him, and all the fun/not fun things I had to accomplish to pull this off. 

This may not be the episode that you'd normally get from me, but trust me, this one is pretty huge for me, so enjoy. Lol.

Alot can happen in six months and now you get to hear about some of it. Oh. You thought Jabbology was dead? Nope. Not at all. Find out what's going on behind the scenes at Proper Rumpus and what new things there are to unroll. You know what, just give it a play, I promise you that you'll get all the wonderful pieces of Jabbo that you've been missing and then some. Finally, the head lunatic is back!

Since I have a podcast network, I mean I guess I can actually put out my own show, right? With the gap closing, I guess that's improvement lol. Welcome to another episode of Jabbology. I had to do SOMETHING. There is always so much going on, that I have to take breaks and fill you all in. It's a great catch up episode with the promise of more. I believe I even say that in the episode. It's not a total story dump, but it's a good opener to all the new shit coming. Hope you enjoy it!

Jabbology is rolling with a few new future changes, but one thing that will stay constant is the adoration I have for the skills, talents, and personalities of the guests. It's not always that I get to sit with someone, but when I do, I geek out just the same. This is no different. As hip hop turns the big 5-0, it just so happened that I had a friend that I wanted to catch up with and he just so happens to be a disciple of the "birthday boy/girl". Big. Bruddah. Snow. A Louisi-Animal in his own right. A creative on a path that only he could curate and follow. A storyteller from "The Boot" with an unconventional view that he is more than happy to share. Controversial in his thoughts, you're seeing a poet on the rise. One with an unflinching and honest look at the course of life that has him where he is today. I couldn't introduce him any better. I could tell you about his home life, his kids, his 9 to 5. I could even tell you his journey into music. Or I can try to shut up and let the man tell you himself. New Jabbology. Enjoy!

People have been askng when another Jabbology episode would be popping up, well, here is your answer. Long overdue in both content AND frequency, I finally got another episde out. This time, I get to sit and be insipired by Alex Parker, the creater/owner of To The House Collectibles. You have heard me delve with Nashon into the story of our resin art, so this is in the same circle. Representation matters. What you get here is a awesome story of the roots of what I feel is an amazing pitch into the designer art world. Trust me, its not one to miss. The Prospect is such an amazing platform and the story and passion behind Alex's dream is one that will inspire anyone. Also, you will get to hear me go fanboy a little. Lol Enjoy!

Finally, The Jabbs has come back to....his own fuckin show! It's been long overdue but I finally sat down to record a new Jabbology episode. There are so many new things that I have been working on, and here ya go, I'll tell you about them all. What's been going on with the shop, the shows, Proper Rumpus art stuff. Im pretty sure I thank half the world in there somewhere. There is so much stuff to breeze over, yapping about it here makes no sense, when you can just listen. Listen. Please? Lol.

Welcome back to another Jabbology! I've been so busy with the other shows and all the other side projects, that sometimes things get shuffled. I'm hglad this was though, cause it allowed time for this episode to happen. After months and months of planning and trying, I finally get to have my big sis on the show. We both have two strong personalities and it madee for a great discussion on life and parenting. I get to pick my sister's brain on her unwavering faith in God, rasining a child as a sinlge parent, and what the dreaded "empty nest" tag means for her. You wanted deep, you got it. lol. It's anotherr look at those I love and what make me tick. It's a very personal episode, so I hope you enjoy it.

Well, D Con is upon us and we couldn't be more relieved, or tired. lol Welcome to the second part of our D Con journey! Nashutty and I pick up where we left off, finishing the pieces for shipping. We were in the spot to try and do something big to show off what we were capable of as an art team. Not too many couple teams in the field that we know of, so doing this together, to us, was important. Everything about this art drop, WE did. It wasn't always sunny and bright, but we pulled off something amazing. Oh yeah, we also DIDN'T kill each other. Lol. There is something about us being a creative team that makes this walk a bit different. All of our trial and tribulations, all mapped out, in pod form. Hope you enjoy it.

Welcome to another episode of Jabbology! Ya know, I've been calling this block of shows, my artists series, obviously cause I have been sitting with artists of all mediums, so how in the fuck were WE not gonna talk about OUR arting on here? Well, it's been a long ass road, but we were up to the challenge. This is it, where we explain IN DEPTH what exactly it is that we do. Proper Rumpus is a house for all creative expression and I was just lucky as all hell to have someone, a lifelong partner mind you, to art with. We have dabbled in resin art, vinyl art, and designer art toys for about three years now and we finally have a chance to show off our talents at the infamous Designer Con! Now, I ain't gonna explain what all that is here, it's what the episode is for, but you realy should listen. We talk about the stresses of being artists, running Proper Rumpus, and getting ourselves ready for the biggest art show we have ever been a part of. Like I always say, Jabbology is me, so welcome to another in depth slice of...well, me. lol. Be peace and stick the landing...cue the music!
