Finally, a new upload. It has been months but we are back. I explain why I felt the need to step away for a bit. How I have been growing as a person. How I have been trying to enjoy my time instead of constantly reflecting on everything. Also, I cut my hair. A major rant, and a long one at that. I have been gone for a while, and I needed to talk about nonsense. Hopefully you enjoy. New episode whenever I can get another one out lol

I know, it has been a while. I am back. Hopefully, I can stick around for a while. This episode is kind of a catch up. First, why I was struggling to make episodes and the mind set I had. Also, a show I have been into and the music I have been listening to. The ending topic is about my hair. Being called miss, ma'am, and now darling for the first time. A funny time looking back, but stinging at the time. Hopefully you enjoy.

This quick and short episode is dedicated to the mood swings Alex goes through. Trying to manage his emotions has always been a challenge. Alex has speculated and experimented with what could be causing these sudden changes in emotion. Looking back, there does not seem to be a reason. The changes in emotions seem to have always been there growing up. This episode is the beginning of this talking point. Hopefully you enjoy! New episode every Thursday!

A side of himself he does not normally share, Alex shares his party side this episode. These are some of the stories people ask him about. So, Alex has decided to share some of the recent ones. Starting off with some birthday parties from months ago. Alex talks about being drunk from his cousins signature drink, the three consecutive parties, and the police being on a manhunt. Also, the first experience being at a country club. With the help of RedBull Vodka, Alex recalls his friends questioning him because of the things that amazed him. A very late episode but a fun one.

A topic Alex keeps bringing up simply because he does not know what he wants. Does he want to be single? Does he want a significant other? The people around him have families, partners, or are married. He has none of that. Sad, but of his own doing. He goes on to explain why he is single and what it means to him. Alex then goes on to talk about random stuff like turning his garage into a workspace, The Boys and how crazy of a show it is, and brainstorming how to bring on a guest. Hopefully you enjoy!

Sharing information online is fun, informative, and entertaining. However, when you are in the spotlight, when does sharing information become too much. For example, Alex watches a youtuber religiously and feels that he knows too much about this person's life. However, it is this person's job to share their life on the internet. Alex sees that and begins to wonder if he is sharing too much. Alex explains that if something only involves him, he is willing to share. However, if it involves other people, he will not share because that person might not want that information out there. These thoughts are just forming for Alex as he continues this online journey. What is and is not appropriate to share? Quickly moving on, Alex begins to spiral into random subjects. Joe Rogan podcast and what makes it great, two terrifying moments with a pothole and a roach, and a wonder of who to have as a guest. A cool and fun episode. Hopefully you enjoy!

Feels good to be back to our regularly scheduled program. Alex has bought a new camera which is what he is using in this episode. Testing it out for the first time while also filming a longer episode has been great so far. Now, Alex has no excuse as to why it takes so long to make an episode. Exporting is a different issue. Regardless, this episode was fun to make. The title Endure is also the name of the book Alex is currently reading. Endure by Cameron Hanes has so far been a great read. Alex is now changing and adding to his way of thinking. Along side motivation and discipline, now comes enduring. A great word to represent getting through the hard times. Alex sees it now as a new thing to keep his mind on. To endure through the hard times might be more important than discipline and even motivation. This topic is new to Alex as he has just started reading the book. Moving on to the rest of the episode. Alex speaks on the new camera and his social battery and how he differs from the people around him. Hopefully you enjoy this long episode.
