This is "A Convo with Big Brown Dad!" We caught up with Carlos Aguilar, aka: "Big Brown Dad" and owner of "Mestizo Coffee" and had an insightful conversation about his journey as a writer, producer, and business owner.  Take a listen to learn his amazing story and what he's doing to move and shake the earth in support of the brown community. 

"From Keg Stands to Craft Beers!" You're going to laugh when you listen to the hilarious drunk stories told by Los Compas! We started this episode with the intent to talk about the evolution of drinking - from bunkwiser to craft beers - and how one becomes "cultured" in beers. We missed the mark - by far! Warning: you will be sorely disappointed if you're looking for intelligent talk about the art of drinking beer.  What we lack in thoughtful conversation about beers we make up with raw, unscripted, crazy stories about growing up in East LA with beers, booze, and buzzed adventures.

"Are You Stuck in a Time Warp?"  In this episode, Los Compas talk about how difficult it is to encourage friends and family to stop living in the past. It's difficult because they don't want to offend anyone even though it pains them to see others stuck in a time warp - reliving the glorious days, over and over. Join us for some laughs and words of encouragement.

Compas: What are the Two Most Significant Times of Your Life? Reuben takes a deep dive at exploring this question and asks you to take some time and reflect on this question and find your purpose.  It's never too late to start!  The important lesson is that you actually start.  Take a listen because we know you'll get inspired.  To your journey, Love and Respect, Los Compas Lounge!

"¿La Chancla o el Fajo?" was inspired by one of our compas, Axel Garcia, who made us think about how we were disciplined as kids and how we go about disciplining our children today.  Join us for some laughs as we take a light-handed approach to an otherwise serious topic.

In Psycho Cycle, Los Compas talk about their experiences with doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.  They talk about toxic relationships, self-destructive behavior, and encourage you to work on your self-esteem and break the psycho cycle.

Choose Your Family Wisely was inspired by one of our compas, Jon Morra, who made us think about the importance of choosing your family no matter who they are or the negative backlash you may experience.

Los Compas Lounge take a break this week in preparation for the new season.
