The Faucet with Myq Kaplan

This time, Myq spends some time talking about quantities/qualities of things like time and timeless things. 

Example: comedies are shorter than dramas. Unless you add a punchline to a drama right at the end. Or all throughout it.

Myq also wonders how short the longest meaningful podcast could be, and discusses time, jokes, money, months, moons, mutables, immutables, scrutables, inscrutables, verses, inverses, words, birds and more. (Or less! [More or less is potentially less than more, more or less.])

In this pod-meal, Myq tells stories about the experiences of his grandma, grandpa, and self with respect to movies (seeing them, making them, auditioning for them).

Animals discussed include lions and ostriches and rats, oh my!

Other animals discussed include free will, Free Willy, and Wilford Brimley.

Myq offers proof that he doesn't know everything, recommends books by Ta-Nehisi Coates and Beverly Cleary, and talks about his first performance at the circus!

Recorded in listenable stone. Enjoy, please and thank you, as desired and possible!

In tonight's pod-snack, enjoy the flavors of Myq's discussion of all kinds of capsules (space, time, and more!), genies (briefly), teleportation, messiahs, a fun joke for a French person (peut-être), a ME-ditation, questions for YOU, and the is-ness (and more?). Please enjoy as desired and possible. (But ONLY as desired and possible.)

Myq reveals the combination to his safe, a number of valuable thoughts about silence from a book on Quaker Wisdom that he read recently, and how he abbreviates "Samuel L. Jackson."

He shares some memorable quotes from his late grandmother like "I'm just happy to hear your voice and "I have to get back to my mahjong game." He celebrates his friend Renata and her love of birds, his friend Zach and the ways they communicate, and the words/concepts/movement of Black Lives Matter. He offers tips on wishing and praying, ideas about being and doing, and an assessment of how trees are lucky! Enjoy with your ears, brain, heart, and more, thank you!

In this mini drip-drop from the Faucet, Myq podcasts from "his" room, going briefly down a rabbit hole about rabbit holes and imagining a future where time works differently, and so does time travel (not necessarily in that order). He makes various recommendations, including friend Chris Duffy's wonderful podcast "You're the Expert," long-time fave TV show "Six Feet Under," and more recent-time fave TV show "Corporate." And maybe more, he forgets what he says sometimes! He offers listeners the option to use HIS imagination instead of or in addition to their own, talks about giant robots of the past and tiny ones of the future, and discusses Applebee's more than he normally does. All that, and more (maybe!), on The Faucet!

Now, Myq defines art and chairs, confuses Andys Kaufman and Warhol, and shares a memory of himself as a child pretending to be a duck.

He recommends hydration, offers a Truman Show revelation, and discusses the "Spake"-time continuum

Hear about child omniscient narrators, the peak-end rule, and smiles.

Engage your mind's eye. your heart's ear, and your body's brain, let's say.

Enjoy, and have a great Now! Thanks for reading/listening/doing/being!

"Today," Myq talks about how we're all verbs, does an impression of a less confident Des Cartes, names names (examples: all of Snow White's buddies but hardly any reindeer), offers some song ingredients and childrearing advice, and generally says a lot about saying.

Today, Myq (Mike) discusses vibrations of gratitude, a glass half empty of wind, REM's "eponymous" album, and whether time IS indeed money. 

He recommends the music, comedy, podcasts, and/or general states of being of Vance Gilbert, Zach Sherwin, Joe Zimmerman, his wizardly girlfriend Rini, and more.

Myq Kaplan starts talking. You start listening. If you want. Thanks. You've come this far. Good luck! (Myq shares things that come out of or through his brain. This episode is about what the Faucet is, metaphorically speaking. He also covers what a literal faucet is. How's that? Hope you're well as can be.)
