Obscured State of Mind

Zibby Aiken is a prominent female apart of the Michigan metal community. Also ran a very popular OnlyFans account before the regulations kicked in. Being popular in a scene full of dudes and then taking a deep dive into a lucrative business such as OF must have been awkward right? Maybe. But maybe its just the way you look at it. Take a walk with us down the wild side of the business of TikTok, OF, and the wonders of religion.Follow us here:YouTube (video version)All other socialsFollow Zibby here:@zibbythagypsy on TikTok

JJ and Kaity come back on the podcast since way back in the early days in the original set up with their new vocalist Collin! We discuss their last tour for Final Confession and all the details of the mishaps along the way. Voicemeover makes a return and its the best rendition yet, and I am extremely awkward with Collin because I know more people are going to arrive so we just played word association and its hilarious.

Well. We have reached the plateau of 100 episodes. Officially it's 99, but I have a special, and absolutely fun podcast planned for the "official 100". So, for today, I have a few words to express to the audience including my goals, ambitions, how this all began and where I want to go from here. After that I parsed out a clip from each podcast release for you to enjoy. Short sections of the clips that are posted to Facebook (not released here). This is a great time to see where it started, to where it is today, and how we have grown together, and also to see what guests have appeared! Thank you all for the memories and time spent listening or watching. I truly appreciate it and hope you will help me grow this channel. Video VersionLinkTree to all Socials

Alexei Vandenbrink is a producer and chef out of Holland, MI.  His works of art including both food and music can be found on his Instagram account.  He has a new album coming out in Mid-April coming at us with another Lo-Fi (as I describe) flow.  We discuss the Melon Heads, local urban legend with a compelling backstory leading to an almost plausible outcome.  That outcome being botched surgery victims with enlarged heads being set free to the woods of Allegan, MI and still roam them to this day.  We also spend a chunk of time on sports.  Rarely does that become a topic on this show so its nice to talk once in a while.  This was about Tim Lincecum missing the 1st ballot for the HOF.  Effectively ending his chances of making it.  Tons of other great conversation!@_lex.thechefFollow us here:Video VersionAll other socials

Jimmy Sok is the man that undertook the task of managing one of the most demanded restaurants to come to Holland, Michigan.  That restaurant would be Popeyes.  The lines have been long, the reviews have been great, ignorant and right on par.  We get to the bottom of how its been going.  Takeout Takeover is his pride.  Going on his 3rd food truck upgrade now, with a complete wrap job, hes rocking and ready to go.  You can catch him at a food truck festival near you or right here in Holland at most events.  Street food is their specialty and they make it right!  We go over some of the food in the pod.  We also play Way Too Many Questions, talk about dads, and crazy Holland stories.  Check it out!

(Bonus 15min for audio listeners included at the beginning of the show)Mike and Mike from the band Fleshbore out of Indiana paid a visit on the podcast.  O'Hara (The Green Leaves, Fleshbore, Lucidium) and McGinley (Fleshbore, Diabolist) are a couple of great guys to talk music with.  If you don't know these guys well now is the time before they start to invade Michigan with their brutal riffs.  We tried coming up with another Alternate Band names segment but I couldn't come up with any good ones, but boy did it end up working out!  We talk about record labels, and what to expect to get out of them for what you give to them.  Lots of talk on music, how to define genres and why I don't particularly like bands with two vocalist doing nothing besides vocals.  Lets dive inside the minds of Fleshbore.Follow us here:YouTube (video version)All other socialsFollow Fleshbore here:FBBandcamp
