Shane Rennison
Catskill Musician Shane Rennison joins Walsh Wednesday. We discuss his last album, "Irrational," and all the work and grass-roots marketing that went into it. Along the way, Shane and I talk about what it means to be an artist and a content creator today, and the stresses that it brings. On top of that, we go into what grounds us and how we can stay present in a culture that is always trying to rush forward.
Nav the Poet
Navpreet Singh, aka Nav the Poet joins us on Walsh Wednesday to talk about his content creation on TikTok fame. Nav brings us back to when he first discovered his love for poetry, and how that led him to pursue his passions in videography and sceenwriting. We go into how he has become an unofficial online ambassor of Sikhism. Nav and I talk about many of the most common misconceptions about the Sikh faith, and what it means to bring peace and understanding to a world that is always jumping to conclusions. But this episode isn't totally deep and serious because Nav and I geek out about our favorite TV shows and movies, especially our love for Superman.
