February 17, 2025 #39 DG Monologue: Selling to Buy More / Branding / Jazz Gatekeepers
This episode starts with a listener confession from a friend of the podcast, GST. From there, I give a budget update. Specifically, I address the idea of selling stuff just so I can buy more stuff, and working to break that cycle. From there, I discuss a bit of a branding crisis I'm currently having regarding all the different monikers I have for all my creative endeavors. Finally, I wrap by addressing a TikTok video made to poke fun at jazz gatekeepers.

February 10, 2025 #38 A Conversation with Bruce (Formerly Wabi Sabi Headphones)
I have a conversation with Bruce, who was known to many on Instagram as @wabisabiheadphones before shutting the project down recently. Bruce and I discuss mutual Cali friends, his upbringing in South Africa, meeting his wife in the UK and moving to California shortly after, befriending a hoarder who left his entire collection of 50,000 records to Bruce, PTSD, SSRIs, and the ways in which "story culture" can lead us to believe our lives will be a lot more exciting than they end up being, amongst other things.

January 27, 2025 #36 DG Monologue: Collecting Hip Hop Singles / Being Creative
In this week's monologue, I talk about my recent obsession with hip hop 12-inch singles, and a general enthusiasm for classic hip hop production (that often samples jazz records). I also talk about my time being creative lately, and how I sometimes struggle to find the time and motivation to make music.
