  • EP#25 - Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, and Reddit's Unpopular Opinions

    On this week's Layovers episode, Grant and Keith discuss the rapidly up-and-coming world of Virtual and Augmented Reality. It seems like just yesterday we were experimenting with the idea of this through the clunky TV Remote handle of the Nintendo Wii. Now we can sit courtside to our favorite NBA games with the don of a futuristic cowl. What a crazy world we live in, right?

    What does this mean for the future of our species? What will it mean for our kids, and how will they grow up? Will we end up living forever through the means of a virtual world? SO MANY QUESTIONS! We have no answers.

    On this week's episode, Keith and Grant introduce a new segment (finally, some structure, we get it) where we dissect the latest and greatest of the ever popular Reddit thread; Unpopular Opinions. This segment is a lot of fun to tune into live, so make sure to catch us on our next episode! Follow our instagram below for updates on the streaming times.

  • EP#24 - Social Media - The Good, The Bad, and The Evil

    On this week's layovers episode, Keith and Grant talk about the affect social media has had on their own personal lives, and our take on how it is affecting society as a whole. We all know that while the access to an infinite plethora of information tidbits can be a good thing, it has its blaring flaws as well, which poses the question everyone seems to accept but nobody wants to fully realize - what should we do about it?

  • EP#23 - The Hard Left vs The Hard Right, Louis C.K 's Comeback, and All Things Music

    You're in for a doozy this week. For this week's episode, we had on four of the five band members of up and coming electronic/alt-pop band A Band Called Sad. They just released a new EP titled, We Haven't Heard of Us, Either. You can find it on Spotify and iTunes. With the band, we discuss what makes a band good live, the political tension and division between the hard left and the hard right, and Louis C.K's current controversy and how that feeds into pop culture. Yes, this episode goes all over the place, but it is a good listen with a bunch of solid dudes - and solid musicians. Spotify Page

  • EP#22 - New Years Resolutions

    It's that time of year! Quick - flush your pack of cigarettes down the toilet, make sure to get to bed early, and hit the gym as soon as January 1st hits! Keith and Grant discuss their own personal New Years Resolutions, and we work through the best way to actually reach those goals, instead of buying the yearly gym membership on a New Years discount only to forget about it by the time February rolls around. We hope you enjoy the episode, and get ready for 2019! New year, new you, right?!

  • EP#21 - Christmas, Consumerism and Commercialism

    On this week's Layovers episode, Keith and Grant get in their holiday spirit the only way they know how - by being bah humbugs! Critiquing Christmas sounds harsh, we know, but bear with us - we discuss the good and the bad, swerving our Christmas sleigh from Capitalism through the lens of the big dude in the red suit to our desire to see new workplace incentives for volunteer opportunities that are oh so prominent thru the holidays. Tune in for an awesome and unique look at holiday cheer, and have a great holiday! Youtube LIVE STREAM LINK

  • EP#20 - Kanye West and Modern Geniuses

    On this week's episode of Twenty Somethings, Keith and Grant are joined by Karah James, drummer and singer of timeless indie-pop band Valley. We talk modern day geniuses and the lackadasical attitude that comes with handing that term out - specifically to rappers that refer to themselves as Jesus. You all know who I'm talking about. We also discuss cell phones and how they have impacted our society on a generational level, the business side of the entertainment industry, and much, much more! Tune in for an awesome hangout with our newest friend from the North! Valley are the Toronto band with an undeniable New York sound that are about to be at the top of your radar. Known for hit singles such as Swim and Say, they are back with a new but familiar sound in the first portion of their new album titled MAYBE - SIDE A, released in late November with the rest slated for a release in 2019. Be sure to check it out for their new indie pop hits, such as Push for Yellow (Shelter) and Closer to the Picture, and you will surely want to stick around for the rest of this killer album. asdf Spotify Artist Page

  • EP#19 - Political Tribes In 2018

    Our first ever live stream was captured this week, and we discussed the tribal nature of politics in 2018. We expressed our concern for those that will battle their opinion to the end, but only believe in that opinion because their group does. Why would someone want to strip away a complex identity and only show an opinionated and combative side of themselves? We are seeing a lot of this stemming from the 2016 election, where people will cling to their group's stance for dear life. Keith and Grant explore this concept and much more on this week's special Layovers episode.

  • EP#17 - Hey Kids! Welcome to 5th Grade Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Class!

    On this week's episode of Twenty Somethings, Keith and Grant had BJJ Coach and fighter Chris Crosby, along with his training partner, Josh Booty, on the show. We talked all things for the love of martial arts, but specifically Chris' recent dive into teaching martial arts and jiu jitsu as part of a charter school curriculum. Yes, you read that right - a real school is having their kids learn "The Gentle Art" . We wanted to hear all about it! We talked the affects on discipline, confidence, control, and respect these kids are experiencing in their first year under their new teacher, and what that might look like should the world take notice. Chris Crosby is MMA and BJJ Coach and fighter out of Soul Fighters BJJ and Movement Martial Arts in Louisiana. Chris also teaches Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as part of the curriculum at BASIS Baton Rouge Charter School. Josh Booty is Chris' student and training partner. Josh's wife and kids train under Chris as well.

  • EP#16 - Sound Pollination Thanksgiving Special

    On this week's episode of Twenty Somethings, Keith and Grant invite the other two Sound Pollination workhorses, Mickey Roberts and Gianni Damaia to join them for a true Thanksgiving feast - 4 Pizza Pies from the local Brooklyn Pizzeria and some bottom shelf Gin.

    Mickey runs his own educational podcast entitled Knowing Nothing, and Gianni runs his film review podcast, entitled The Bad Movies Podcast (you can guess what he reviews).

    On this episode, the guys go all over the place - here are some of the topics:

    - video games

    - understanding our realities and not over exaggerating them without perspective

    - being adults but yearning for simplicities

    - linguistics and why they matter

    - pizza and gin

    - learning from kids

    - taking criticism

    and much ... much ... more ... (for better or worse, pardon the gin)
