The season 1 finale. In this episode, I find a bike abandoned on the street, brush it up and give it to a piano-playing stranger, Josh. I meet Josh outside the Russian orthodox church by my house where he’s playing box piano for people walking by. He looks kind of homeless, with various pieces of...

Microphones are magical, almost holy objects to me. They represent the world listening in and allow folks to feel heard. In my experience, they allow people to open up and be vulnerable more often than they cause people to shut down and clam up. This episode is an ode to microphones. Microphones have already changed...

What would you do if a mysterious ethereal tone started emanating through your whole neighborhood? Wouldn’t you hop on your bike and not get off until you figured out what it was? In this episode I track down a mysterious hum that suddenly began blanketing my section of San Francisco this summer. I couldn’t have...

A collection of notes, voice memos and poems, cut together with music and The Blue Angels. I even embarrassingly attempt to sing. It’s pretty special. A lot of the material is from when I was rediscovering being single a couple years ago. So dating and romance can be considered a secondary theme here. Instagram Twitter...

Movement for Black...

Both events made their victims paranoid, angry, and ready to hurt someone. This episode features tape from the 9/11 memorial museum,...

Being lost and being stuck are kind of the same thing. When you’re stuck you’re in between two points but can’t go forward. When you’re lost you don’t know where you are and you’re trying to find your way. In both cases, directionless. This episode explores being lost vs. stuck, featuring tape of my family and...

New Relationship Energy. Colloquially known as “The Honeymoon Phase.” I talk with an ex-girlfriend and a friend about my new relationship, and all the butterflies. My ex thinks I’m “rehashing my co-dependencies” by dating my coworker during the Covid19 crises. My friend recently started seeing someone and is also experiencing N.R.E., so we just ooze...

I attend a Juneteenth skate-protest (Kicking for Freedom) with some number of hundreds of skaters taking over Mission street from the Ferry Building to the SOMA skatepark. We roll slowly through downtown, block traffic, and honor George Floyd– I capture everything recording from the seat of my bicycle. We kneel for 8 1/2 minutes while...
