  • 0322 The Jonnyroobs Bits 11.12.2022
    What was once a "solo podcast" featuring Jonnyroobs has been rebranded as "The Jonnyroobs Bits." Jonnyroobs felt it's best to close out this podcast season by tackling on as many subtopics possible. He even went out of his way to include guests as a means to kickstart this latest format. Subtopics (in which he refers to as bits) are discussed:  "Using Mobile apps for ordering" and "The Struggle of Trying to Win People While Being True to Yourself." Extra bits are followed, as well. 
    This episode is dedicated to the enduring memory of fellow friend Karla Mottley of Chicago, Illinois.

    Jonnyroobs rattles the cage once again, this time pitting himself against two new scenarios that deal with a lot of negative vibes.

  • 0319 Labor Day Weekend
    Recorded via mobile phone while vacationing in Creal Springs, IL during Labor Day Weekend. Jonnyroobs gives a summary of his adventure there (including audio bits as they happened), as well as sharing a social media post that he made just days prior which received a lot of attention from his friends. He reads on their comments and messages afterwards. Also included in this episode are Dan and Jonnyroobs reminiscing about a great movie,  "Best of the Best" from 1990. The ending is unforgettable after all these years. Dan's memorization of the lines is brilliant! 
    A very special shout-out to Mack's Marina. Had it not been for them going the extra mile for me and my group, this pontoon boating adventure wouldn't be any fun.

  • 0318 Rattling The Cage
    There comes a point in life when enough is enough. You have to stand up for yourself and what you believe in despite the circumstances that happen around you. Let go of what's holding you back and show the world what you're made of. Harness all your energy and strength into doing something good not just for yourself but for society, in general. Also, take initial steps to improving your life by staying away from those that doubt you, not include you and don’t care about you. In this 15-minute podcast episode, Jonnyroobs will enlighten you on this topic in which he refers to as "rattling the cage." And don't take the saying with a grain of salt either. He puts an interesting spin on it. Included in this episode is another riddle from LeAnne in Las Vegas #twenty400blockpodcast #solopodcast #rattlingthecage #Facebook #instagram #LFG #society #socialmedia #inspirational #motivational #quotes #riddle #shoutout #mommacuisine #hopes #dreams #justbeyourself #gobeyond #bethechange

  • 0317 Nick Eigenschenk
    Nick Eigenschenk is perhaps one of the most liveliest, coolest personalities in Chicagoland that Jonnyroobs has gotten to know through the years and we're so thrilled to have him (and his family) on our show as he is the feature on the Perspectives series. You'll get a chance to know him more as general questions are asked for the duration of this episode. #firstinstitute #midwestsushiroll #nickeigenschenk #chicagoland #sanfrancisco #crystallakeil #camping #coolpeople #49ersfan #dmb #manassasva #glamping #tentcamping #redrobin #redrocks #chicago #chitown #windycity #secondcity #chisox

  • 0316 Ron Romero of SLFE Apparel
    Welcome to this very special impromptu episode. It's marks the first time that our host Jonnyroobs and Ronaldo (Ron) Romero, his fellow classmate from 6th grade, have spoken to each other after 36 years which is a big gap. Time flew by so quickly, but better late than never on this reunion exclusively heard on this podcast. They have a lot to catch up on especially what has happened since then. Both have let art transcend into their own lifestyles. Jon’s into storytelling, photography and podcasting while Ron has his own clothing apparel: SLFE. Enjoy listening to this feel-good episode #slfe #slfeapparel #pinoys #norfolkva #cityofangels #jonnyroobs #twenty400blockpodcast

About Twenty400 Block

From the publisher's feed

The inspiration for this podcast originated on the 2400 block of a Norfolk, Virginia neighborhood, where Jonnyroobs and his brothers grew up as latchkey kids, learning from TV, radio, publications, and neighbors their age. These influences evolved into discussions among themselves and others, which Jonnyroobs many years later continued on the podcasting platform.
