In this episode, I talk about protecting my peace, feeling like a kid who’s had too much sugar, overthinking my Randomness segments, comparing myself to other podcasts, the pre-retirement workshop I attended today, something @ideffoverthink said that had me fired up, and the email my employer sent out for Mental Health Week that nearly pushed me to the edge again.

In this episode, I talk about a comedian who got under my skin, what I mean by “I hate men,” the Netflix series Man on Fire, and check in on my current mental state. 

In this episode, after reciting some poetry by 2Pac, I talk about my new “raw dog” intro, the president of the United States having to insist that he’s not a rapist/pedophile, how white people can imagine a world with dragons as long as there are no Black people in it, remembering that I’m not like them, and the intersection between being a peacemaker and self-sacrifice.

In this episode, I talk about the topics I won’t be discussing (I’m saying but not saying), not apologizing for making fun of RFK Jr.’s voice, my favourite type of white person, the ability to be hurtful, and figuring out the line between being special and not special.

In this episode, I talk about shutting down as an introvert, Illmatic Day, 4/20, the Peaceful Journey 260313 mix by DJ Ducats, and how I sometimes let things get to me, especially this past week.

In today’s episode, I get into manipulative people, why I nearly made this a French episode, the sci-fi fantasy book I’m reading, and what I love about math. I also touch on putting your business online, revisit a Scarface scene, and share two moments this week where I thought about a dead white racist.

In this episode, I clarify a point I made about Christianity in the previous episode. I talk about how much I’m enjoying season 2 of Paradise, being feenin’ for more books like the Red Rising series, and re-reading Revolutionary Suicide, which has me thinking about how people get radicalized. I also get into the reality of promoting a podcast and why I struggle with it. And finally, I reflect on whether or not I love my podcast.

In this episode, I walk back a take from last time about a recent purchase, revisit my thoughts on people who aren’t into politics after a Joshua Doss video made me realize I actually had a point, share a quick story about resisting obvious solutions, and talk about why a simple "Happy Easter" made me feel the need to reaffirm where I stand today.
