It is official! Not For Nothing... has released 100 episodes! Kyle welcomes back the very first guest to the show, not to mention a frequent guest throughout the 100 episodes, Sarah Cooper. Kyle and Sarah have gone on many adventures together, they have explored dozens of topics on this show, and they have an enduring bond that can't be broken. In this 100th episode, Kyle and Sarah do what they do best, have a conversation about the existential part of life. They have spent many hours talking about the occult, the macabre, and the supernatural. They are bringing that conversation to the pod.

Inspired by the series "Evil" on Paramount+, what if you could wear a mechanism that allows you to see and talk to God? Would you do it? What about your loved ones who have died? Would you talk to them? Kyle and Sarah weigh the pros and cons of experiencing these concepts as well as talking about their beliefs of the afterlife.

Fair the well lords and ladies. His name be Kyle and hers be Lauren Sperling. And she has come to this fine place to tell you all you need to know about the original Renaissance Fair! Kyle brings to the show another friend that he has met in his adventurous past year, Lauren Sperling. She is an actress, model, stage combat artist, voiceover artist, and wonderful friend of Kyle's, and now the show. She is perhaps the most active friend that Kyle has. She has thrown her hat in many different rings; one of them being the original Renaissance Fair, here in Los Angeles County. She worked the fair in the past, but now she goes every year as a delighted spectator. She is here on this episode to tell Kyle all about it and get him ready for his first Renaissance Fair experience, which runs for every weekend in April and May. They talk about LARPs, live action role players, they talk about dressing up, participating, and of course the well wenches! You can't forget about them. If you have ever been curious about the Renaissance Fair, then begin here, with Kyle, as he starts his journey into the world of Renaissance Fairs!

Kyle is so excited to introduce another wonderful friend to his podcast audience. Andrew Perkins is yet another new friend of Kyle's that has become such a dear friend over the course of the last year, and he is very excited to introduce you all to him. Andrew is an actor and singer who is very active in the work that it takes to do the work: the auditioning, the training, the honing his craft, and using his instrument. And he is here today to talk all about the day-to-day nuances and making an acting career work for the actor. Of course, as with any conversation with Kyle, there are a few tangents along the way!

Kyle sits down with his now ex-partner, Ethan Hamm, to talk about the aftermath of a breakup. They discuss the things that lead to a breakup, how two mature people can do it amicably, and whether or not friendship is possible after the split. Spoiler Alert: It is very possible! Kyle and Ethan have made the transition from partners to best friends. And as the first guest of 2023 to "Not For Nothing..." Ethan brings a genuine authenticity to a very complex conversation to have.

And he is inviting everyone to come along for the journey, as he navigates the new space that he calls his life.

Kyle is joined by friends of the show, Sarah Cooper and Alyx Kim-Yohn to discuss young adult novels. Are they a genre? Are they not? Why are adults so infatuated by them? The trio also discusses the now hottest question of the 21st century. Can you, and should you, separate the art from the artist? In this instance, they are referring to J.K. Rowling and the Harry Potter book series. And later, they talk about the "Own Voices" movement and give the listeners some of the books they are currently reading.

Alyx Kim-Yohn:

"The Hate U Give" by Angie Thomas

"The Soul of an Octopus" by Sy Montgomery

"The Secret to Super Human Strength" by Allison Bechdel

"Are You My Mother?" by Allison Bechdel

"Crying in H Mart" by Michelle Zauner, Lead Singer of Japanese Breakfast

Sarah Cooper:

"Sweet Blood" by Pat Graversen

"Fun Home" by Allison Bechdel

"Nothing But the Truth" by Avi

"To J.K. Rowling, From Cho Chang" -- Link Below

This show is proud to join the ranks of people taking to the airwaves to let the Ukrainian people know, we stand with you, we support you, and we are sending you love.
