April 17, 2026When Something is Missing (And You Keep Going Anyway)
Episode Title:
When Something is Missing (And You Keep Going Anyway)
Release Date:
04/17/2026
Episode Length:
00:00–13:50
Episode Summary
In this solo episode, I’m talking about what it means to keep creating (or not) when everything goes pear-shaped.
We recently lost our drummer, Ozz, and while I’m not ready to do a full tribute episode just yet, I am sitting in the space that loss leaves behind—and deciding what it does to my own creativity.
This episode isn’t about pushing through or pretending everything is fine. It’s about showing up honestly, even when things feel quieter, heavier, or uncertain.
If you’ve ever tried to create while carrying something hard—this one’s for you.
What We Talk About in This Episode
Ozz and his impact on my creativity and bass playing
Do we create when we experience loss or is it not your jam?
I say um and trip over my words a lot
This was weird without my sister.
