On this episode we go pretty deep on the topic of working as a real estate agent and opening your own brokerage. Crystal is the owner and managing broker of East Key Realty. She's a lot of things to me: supervisor, mentor and sometimes psychologist, but most of all she is a friend often filling the role of second big sister or mother(even though she's only got a couple of years on me!). I'm not sure I'd even still be in the real estate business had I never met Crystal and I was truly grateful that she took the time to sit down and record an episode with me and I'm grateful to have her in my life every day!

Keith and Alex break down "Dead at Birth" by one of, if not THE greatest band of our era, Connecticuit's own Death Threat.  We talk about how we both discovered Death Threat and how they've been an integral part of our time in hardcore. We discuss the lyrics that reflect how so many of us that found our way to agressive music, truly feel inside.

It was a pleasure to chat with Zak about his prospects as a D1 football player having been ended by kidney failure, his experience with make-a-wish and his new pursuit as the greatest human to ever slap another human in the face.

Tiny homes, accesory dwelling units, commerical real estate, family and more on this weeks epsiode with Jessican Stevenson of Kinstruct Tiny Homes.

Keith and Alex tell stories of their experiences getting into Sick of it All as kids and eventually being their contemparies.

A 20 year friendship, some laughs, some hijinks, a man getting run over by a truck and living to tell the tale and a whole bunch of car talk.

Keith and Alex break down a classic early 2000s Boston Hardcore track. Alex tells stories about the DrugxTest diss track about Lockin Out Records.

Courtney and I talk about the functions of a Title Company, the different roles in the real estate business and her career as a division 1 NCAA volleyball player.

First of a new format on (La)Chance Encounters. Each week Alex and Keith Freeman from Restraining Order will listen to and analyze one song, talking about what it means to them and any personal sotries related to the bands. We had some technical issues on this first one(actually the first 4, so bare with us), but I'm running it out here anyway because, punk rock. Eventually we will have full video on youtube. I also lost like half of the song, but thats probably better for copyright issues anyway?

This week we talk about "Minor Threat" by Minor Threat.

Mariah and I talk business and I spit everywhere.
