The Making Light Podcast

We're back!

 

After a long break, Cameron and Logan return for Season 2 by opening with their recollection of the last few weeks. Between attending Bonnaroo for their first festival experience, climbing to the summit of their first mountain, and watching their niece be born, their trip contained multiple adventures.

 

By the end of the episode, Cameron and Logan discuss their views on money and politics, while Cameron declares Logan her favorite thing in the universe as they plan for a big move. The last few minutes of this show are a little different this time with some honest truths about Logan's feelings and emotions as he contemplates his role in the magic world. Join us for lots of laughs peppered with some serious moments as we gear up for the rest of season two!

This week's solo episode is all about the question we get asked most often: when are we having kids?

Tune in to listen to us discuss the significance behind asking us this question, if we've decided on having kids, how many we want, and how Cameron might envision her future birth(s). 

From discussing our personal experiences with kids to the things we want to accomplish before having them, this episode is jam-packed with deep conversation (both light and dark) about the things that run through our heads when asked this question.

In this episode, we have our friend, Emily, join us at our dining table. A blogger, sustainable fashion advocate, and New York City resident, Emily chimes in as we discuss what it really means to be working for yourself.

Between stories of her travels and anecdotes from events in New York, we share lots of laughs as Logan explains the physics of a gravity bong and we explore what it means to be a millennial entrepreneur in a world where no one really understands what you actually do.

In this very late/very short solo episode, we talk about our predictions for Avengers: Endgame before we leave to see it opening night. Upon our return, we give a spoiler-free review and shit-talk a fellow audience member.

In this week's episode, we invite our friend and old roommate, Andrew, to be a guest on our show. We spend nearly the entire episode talking about movies: which ones we love, how we feel about sad endings, and our true thoughts on those who purposely ruin the surprise of a new film.

This aptly-named episode covers A LOT of movies so we recommend that if you haven't seen most of your watchlist contenders, you might want to wait to listen to this one. Otherwise, enjoy as we delve into the world of cinema and storytelling with one of our funniest friends!

In this week's solo (& live) episode, we talk all about science fiction and our love for the television shows, movies, and books that use scientific narratives to change and shape culture. 

While discussing our favorite titles and stories, we intimately converse about the differences and similarities between science and spirituality. By the end of the episode, we find ourselves deep in the rabbit hole that is infinity and how that relates to our own personal matrices.

Join us as we discuss the absolute absurdity that is science-fiction and its relationship to our even more absurd universe.

In our first episode back after our break, we talk to our very musically inclined friend, Khamor.

After sharing about his experience receiving his Integrative Studies degree from FGCU, we dive deep into his love for music, mindfulness, and manifestation. We share our favorite albums, Khamor's dream of becoming a grammy-winning producer, and discuss what it means to be called an artist. 

By the end of the episode, we get deep into the idea of separating goodness from talent as we talk about a number of world-renowned creatives, both alive and deceased, that have recently been in the spotlight for their statements and actions.

As always, tune in for some deep discussion and a healthy dose of belly-laughs.

This week's solo episode is about one of our favorite topics: psychedelics!

 

After defining the meaning of psychedelics, we talk all about our love for mind-altering substances like coffee, sugar, cannabis, and mushrooms. We spent much of the episode talking about the latter specifically and how they changed our lives. 

 

From Logan finding out he was bisexual to Cameron finding birthwork, psychedelics have benefitted our lives in ways beyond comprehension. We also talk about the "negative" experiences we have had and how they turned out to be beneficial for the future. Listen in to hear all our favorite stories and how psychedelics bettered our mental illnesses as well as how they can change the lives of people who suffer from depression, anxiety, and PTSD.

In this week's episode we talk to Cesar Madera, another local magician. An avid lover of magic and magicians, Cesar shares his stories of collaborating with a well-known magician to propose to his (now) fiance & a recent magic show he attended in New York, performed by his magic idol, Dan White. 

 

In between story-telling, we compare Cesar's and Logan's magic styles, old & new world magic, and our individual definitions of magic in the universe. Tune in for lots of laughs, some free-flowing discussion, and maybe even a magic trick!

This week's guestless episode is all about, you guessed it, SEX.

 

In this vulnerable share-session, we open up about our sex lives, our relationship with pornography, and the importance of comprehensive sex education within the public school system. 

 

This episode is NSFW and definitely not one to play around your kids as we really delve deep into what it means to be sexually aware and sexually active in the 21st century.
