  • Ep 16: Las Locas

    This episode was my first time having a fellow author on the show. Kaleigh Garaffa is currently a senior at Marist University and author of Las Locas: The Madwomen which comes out next month. We talked about her first novel that is fictional story based on the Dirty War in Argentina, her love for writing and what mysterious figures would she invite to have dinner with her. This one is worth the wait.

    PS: This episode was recorded in January.

  • Ep 15: WHAT THE... SHIFT

    This episode is fire. I had the pleasure of speaking to Anthony Trucks a former NFL linebacker and Oregon alum who's now a transformation coach. He taught me about his SHIFT method which he uses to help his clients improve their lives. While also sharing some of his interesting life stories playing football and dealing with adversity. He's truly made a major SHIFT in his life countless times. He dropped some amazing nuggets and we had a bunch of laughs too.

  • Ep. 9: Mrs. Right or Mr. Right Now

    This is easily the funniest episode I've shot thus far. My friends Chiedu and Wande came on the show to talk about dating in college. We talked about single life vs being cuffed, told several wild dating stories and we played "Real Talk or That's Cap" to finish up the episode. All my episodes have been great thus far but, you absolutely got to listen to this whole thing. They are either going to put you on game or have you dying laughing. But, it'll probably be both.
