Gather your easter eggs and various salted Italian meats, because we got another OPES novella coming your way! In today's episode we are joined by yet again my man Mr. Rome Freeman, where we talk about the entirety of The Sopranos series. We discuss our favorite moments and episodes, my overall thoughts with the show and what we thought of the ending. If you haven't seen the show, we may recommend to stay out of this one until you do as we get heavy into the spoilers.Intro background music: Geoff Harvey - PixabayFind us on other platforms here: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/opespodcastSupport us on Patreon: ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/opespodcast

This episode is for all you lovers out there. Welcome to another star crossed episode of OPES, the only podcast that has a Valentine's day card for everyone! And today's no different with my guest, Paul Zolman. We discuss his creation of the "Role Of Love", a dice and program about the love languages. But not just the love languages for couples, no, the love languages for your everyday person you encounter. I figured with all the hate currently going on in the world, we could use some love. And if you wish to know more about this Role Of Love program, feel free to check out Pauls website below. Paul was nice enough to give us a 10% discount on any of his fine products. Thats the dice, the program, the journal, everything!

New year, new me, new episode of OPES coming your way. Today we talk to Dr. JP Anderson, creator of the band Rabbitjunk. We talk inspirations and processes of making music for over 20 years.

Happy holidays everyone! With everyone getting into the holiday season, I thought it important to release this episode. Today's guest is Arlene Miller, an attorney turned life coach. Arlene's story is that of love and sacrifice, as we get into her story about the struggles she had raising her son as a working mother, to running her own solo practice. Thought this was the kind of love and kindness that we really needed this holiday season, so check it out!

Of all the things I am thankful for, it's that I was able to get Ambrosia's husband, Phillip Johnson Jr., on for an episode to finish out our 2-parter. If you haven't seen the previous episode, be sure to check it out to see how these 2 love birds found each other. Phillip is a godly, artistic, kind, hilarious dude, who just jumps into this episode and gets into all kinds of conversations with me. To preaching, to rapping for God, to counseling others, this man truly does it all. I had such a fun time with this episode I hope you will feel the same as I did recording it.
