Back on the show is good friend Susy where with another laid back chill convo. We talk about her brother’s new dog Kumo, recent fires, outside dining & Cheetos Mac & Cheese, cilantro & escargot. We discuss the importance of
unplugging from social media when necessary. Social media is great for
Staying in touch & connecting with people. It can also be detrimental to our well being if we
aren’t mindful of the content we consume.

This week’s episode I chop it up with the homie 60 East. 60 East is a rapper & host / creator of The Happiness of Pursuit Festival
We discuss what he’s been up to lately, taking online classes, and his recent releases- Traffic Jam, (which is the third installment to his Freeway Series EP)
single “I Remember”, a song dedicated to the late Space Ghost- a childhood friend / mentor in music.
60 shares self care advice to help reduce the inevitable stress that comes with being an artist/ creative.
Unfortunately due to the pandemic, 60 will be postponing The Happiness of Pursuit Festival (THOP Fest) 
until 2021. I reminisce my experience working the admissions booth & seeing legendary artists perform & more!
