๐๐โฐโณ Still Alive: Touching Grass
It has been over a year since we last spoke.
In the time I've been away, the world hasn't slowed down, but it feels like weโve become more disconnected than ever. This return episode of Real Talk Stories is a sobering look at the digital haze weโre all living through. We call it "Touching Grass," but the reality is much heavierโitโs about the desperate need to reclaim our humanity in an era of social media addiction, algorithmic isolation, and the fading echoes of real-world crises.
In this episode, we sit with the uncomfortable truths of 2026:
The Parasocial Trap: Why do we feel a deep personal loss over the "downfall" of false streamer idols? We dissect the exhaustion behind the MrBeast controversies and the rise of extreme influencers like Clavicular, exploring how these digital figures have become empty mirrors for our own loneliness.
The Silence of War: While our feeds are filled with "looksmaxxing" and viral stunts, the Ukraine war continues with staggering human costs that the 24-hour news cycle has seemingly moved past. We talk about compassion fatigue and why society has stopped caring about the things that matter most.
The Phone Addiction Epidemic: An honest conversation on the mental health toll of being "constantly online" and the visceral sadness of a society that prefers a screen to the person standing right in front of them.
This isn't a "hype" comeback. Itโs a quiet, emotional reflection on survival, empathy, and the courage it takes to look away from the glow of the phone and back at each other.
To those who stayed, and those who are just finding this now: I am so deeply grateful for you. I love you, and I am thankful you are here with me.
Letโs touch grass. Together. ๐๐โฐโณ
"Real Talk Stories" returns on the final Friday The 13th before the next presidential election and the end of 2024 with what could be its most emotional, raw, and possibly final episode ever. This time, the host dives deep into the bittersweet end of a long, intense relationshipโone that was full of passion, highs and lows, and the kind of love that leaves you forever changed. The breakup is real, and the reflections are heavy, as we explore how something so beautiful can come to a close, leaving behind both heartache and unforgettable memories.
But the personal doesnโt stop there. The episode also takes on the high-stakes drama of the U.S. presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Itโs a political showdown like no other, where the future of America is fiercely debated, with words that cut just as deeply as those in a breakup.
And, of course, we canโt forget UFC 306 Fight Noche at The Sphere in Vegas, where the intensity in the octagon mirrors the emotional battles outside of it. The lights, the roar of the crowd, the raw, primal energy of the fightersโit all comes together in one breathtaking spectacle that makes you feel alive.
With Heartbreak Healing, Debate Drama, and Fight Night in Vegas, this episode taps into the pulse of todayโs biggest moments. Is this really the final chapter of "Real Talk Stories"? If so, itโs going out with a bang, leaving us with thoughts that linger long after the credits roll.

Back For A Bite Of The Big Apple
Just touched down in NYC,
City sure isnโt what it used to be,
Seems like a lot of people sold their souls,
By means of buying dreams,
Propaganda is real,
Weโre all part of the Psy-Op,
Regardless what you think about Trump,
Dude spoke out and almost got his brains blown out,
The Simulationโs really been acting up lately,
Seems like things are heating up in the Middle East,
Seems like theyโre trying to start world war 3,
But weโre just trying to meditate for world peace,
See,
Even though itโs getting hotter by the day,
Iโm not any kind of thirsty,ย
Not sex thirsty or blood thirsty,ย
Not rushing nor hurried,
Iโm taking my time this time around,
Maybe reincarnation is real maybe itโs not,
Either way the only life weโre guaranteed,
Is the one that weโve currently got,
Lost deep in thought,
On Long Island at my broโs spot,
Reflecting on all current themes,
As these reflections turn into lessons taught,
The Apple was The Forbidden Fruit of Knowledge,
That Eve gave to naive Adam to bite,
And ever since then it seems humanityโs been a whirlwind,
A living interactive art project is another word for life,
And Iโm gonna live it while I can,
And Iโm gonna spend as much time as I can,
With those that love me because love is priceless,
And when someone loves you well thatโs the jam,
So who cares if out there itโs almost World War 3,
In here itโs all Unconditional Love and World Peace,
And Iโd continue to elaborate in this piece,
But Iโve got things to do because I just touched down in NYC,
Just touched down in NYC,
City sure isnโt what it used to be,
Seems like a lot of people sold their souls,
By means of buying dreamsโฆ

Cold Brew
You are what you drink,
Ordering cold brew listing to flamingo,
Makes you think,
From my hammock on my penthouse patio,
Maid in the kitchen,
Keeping everything clean,
Guard at the gate,
Can't be too careful in a city as dangerous as Medellin,
All real,
Never faked a thing,
Mind is at ease,
As the guitar sings,
On top of the world,
Quite literally,
A day in the life,
Of a luminated Literary,
Love coming home soon,
A king isn't complete without his queen,
& Yeah these might be The Last Days,
But if so it is what it is so mote it be,
A optimistic cynic,
I've got hope but also understand reality,
At peace eternally and internally,
Even though it seems we're on the brink of WW3,
Because hey you are what you drink,
Ordering cold brew listing to flamingo,
Makes you think,
From my hammock on my penthouse patio... ๐ด
