Hey listeners, I've got another episode for you today, courtesy of my good friend Nikita (Instagram @nikita.muromcew). In the episode, we talk about trauma, the way we talk about trauma, and the way we move through some of the most difficult things life throws at us. I couldn't be more grateful for the talk we had, and I hope you, listeners, get something out of it too. Peace and Love.

Hey friends. It's me, Hugo Solomon - and I know it's been a while. I'm... imperfect, too. But I'm always looking for things to add to this ongoing project, and I was lucky enough to spend some time with some new friends (Ela and Claire) and together we made this segment. We talk about change, sitting with our shit, and becoming more aware of the ways we all cope - and I hope you'll listen. See ya soon.

Hey listener, it's me, Hugo Solomon, back from The Depths. Today, my good friend Sydney and I get to talk about some of the real shit, the shit that hurts, and the kind of shit that forces us to reevaluate relationships we've held sacred all our lives. In the episode, Sydney and I address what can happen when our sexualities begin to uncomfortably fall under the scope of the ones we love, as well as some of the complications of online sex work, especially in the context of social media (shocker, there's a lot of 'em). Either way, I think it's more than safe to say I learned a ton from today's episode, and I hope you do, too. Lots of love.

Dearest friends, listeners, and all sorts of individuals, I’m here for you, again, and always. In the middle of this chaos, I am a voice, one to listen to or ignore, sometimes solitary and sometimes uncertain, but always looking for the next story to hear, to tell, or to live through. And so. Today, I have an interview and conversation with my good friend Izzy Poros - an artistic and delightful soul I am so glad I get to have in my life. But like me, Izzy’s path hasn’t always been easy, or clear, but the conclusions and wisdom she was able to find should be a lesson to all of us. I hope you enjoy it. Music for today includes “Walden Pond” by Attaboy and “Shadowshow” by Jerkcurb. Peace and love.

Hi friends. I wanted to start off today with an acknowledgment of the love I've been getting recently, both from this podcast and the other art I've created recently - I cannot express the gratitude I feel towards those who have accompanied me on this incredible journey of creativity and transformation. My heart is filled with all of you. So today, continuing this journey, I have an interview I recorded during the month of August when I was still living in Massachusetts. I met up with my good friend Eden, and sitting under the very building you see displayed as the image for the episode, we dove deep into the ways we've grown, both from Andover and from our relationships, and I think it affected both of us for the better. Thank you so much, Eden.

Hey guys - thanks for sticking around on this one. I'll admit, it's hard, trying to balance so many things at once, but I'm doing my best. Every day, I'm doing my best to continue existing - and I'm so so thankful for those of you who have helped me get through this strenuous time. Y'all are incredible. But, for today, I have something different, or something more like the same. Today, I have an interview with my friend Delaney DelPointi, an incredible photographer, artist, and fellow follower of the work of Mapplethorpe and Patti Smith. She helped me get through one of my most difficult times, and I couldn't be more grateful for the guidance she's shown me. I hope it can teach you something, too. Music includes "I Won't be found Live" by The Tallest Man On Earth, a recording obtained through the free music archive, and a creative commons license.

Dear listeners. Today, we're coming back. Back from the journey I've been on, from the stories we've all been living through, to the present. To now. And to mark that transition, I'm going to begin the second season of The Depths. To bring you all up to speed, I decided to compile a series of audio clips I recorded from my recent trip from Massachusetts to Connecticut to Canada to Connecticut to Vermont to Canada, and back to Seattle. A true whirlwind of events and physical transportation. But there was wisdom, in those traumatic experiences, joy in the little things that got me through it. A smile, a game of cards, a really good song at just the right moment. And through it all, I'm so glad I have you, listener, and I hope that together we can continue to see that light. Hope to see you soon. Today's music includes “Moonlight Sonata” by Beethoven.

Dear listeners. Who are you? What brought you here, and how are you both the pieces of who you are and more than the sum of those parts? Today, my friend Ariel Landa (instagram @ariel1000) and I unpack these feelings of who we are through the lens of queerness as well as trauma, reflecting on what makes us, us. Enjoy. Today's music includes “Claire de Lune” by Debussy and “Land of Dreams" by Langhorne Slim. All audio was obtained through a creative commons license and the Free Music Archive.

Dear listeners. How do we tell our stories? How do we look in the face of those telling us of our flaws and choose to follow our own paths? Today I unpack stories of agency and change with my dear friend Zoe Staples (instagram @zoe.staples), and I couldn't be more proud of the conclusions we arrived at. Music includes "Cape Dory" by Tennis. All audio was obtained through a creative commons license and the Free Music Archive.

Dear listeners. Today I interview the first legitimate member of my biological family, my father, Jonathan Solomon. Over the course of the conversation, recorded in the middle of our last outdoor adventure of the summer, we discuss the origins of what I've tried so hard to describe through this podcast, and where one can find the courage to keep going even in the middle of anger, abandonment, and abuse. Thanks for doing this one, dad. Music includes "Colors" by Grouplove. All audio was obtained through a creative commons license and the Free Music Archive.
