  • Myles Matsuno - The Marathon

    This week's episode is with filmmaker, Myles Matsuno. His latest project is We're the People, a series of portraits from people around LA, from all walks of life. I especially like this piece featuring Lacy Hartselle, but you can check out the whole series here. The music, composed by Chad Lawson is stellar.

  • Chuck Rodgers - Fighting Depression & Anxiety

    I don't know about you, but the death of Anthony Bourdain hit me like a ton of bricks. He was a guy that had struggled with demons, but it seemed to be in his rearview. His death was a reminder to me that our demons aren't ever that far away. 

    Elizabeth Gilbert says in "Big Magic" that fear is always along for the ride, but if you're going to beat it,  it NEVER gets a vote.

    This Week's episode features Chuck Rodgers. He's a licensed therapist and LMFT. He's going to talk to us about depression and the states of feeling blue. Chuck is going to help us with some initial thoughts on how to deal with depression, but it's in no way a substitute for seeing a professional. 

    If you're battling depression or just feeling bad, talk about it soon and often. 

    We're all in this together.
