Chronic Illness, Grilled Cheese, Movies, & Red Dead Redemption!

First episode of the new year, and we have a lot to talk about. Been trying to watch one movie a day, and that's mostly what we talk about. That, and Scarlett's obsession with grilled cheese

True Detective S1 - Ep. 1

Better late than never. While in search of a new show to watch, I remember that I had missed out on True Detective, and Scarlett had never heard of it. That meant it was perfect for the show! Today we discuss episode 1!

Scarlett Watches Friends: Seasons 3-10

The show is just too damn easy to binge. Made it impossible to do a season by season review.

Good God! This person has lived one hell of a life. Prepare to listen, and not be able to sleep later!

Mental Illness is Fun!

Mental Illness is Fun!

Scarlett decided to scare me by talking about their hallucinations, so I figured you should be scared too!

Watching: Memories (1995)

Watching: Memories (1995)

I got real sick, and didn't know what else to do, so I decided to watch Memories (1995) with Scarlett. The movie is an anthology film made by the same people who made Akira, and is currently free on Tubi

Talking About: Friends Seasons 1-2

Talking About: Friends Seasons 1-2

Since the death of Matthew Perry, I decided to binge some Friends, and introduce Scarlett to one of my favorite shows. Gotta do my best to educate the youth!

Scarlett Has Problems

Scarlett Has Problems

I swear every episode devolves into Scars wanting to have relations with the worst people. That's going to be every episode from now on.

Nov 01, 202301:07:25
Who Wants to F### a Vampire!?

Who Wants to F### a Vampire!?

I don't know how this conversation got started, but some way or another, Scars wouldn't stop talking about having sex with vampires. It then became my sole duty to record this conversation, and make sense of it. We also rant about Stephen King for a bit.

Trigger Warning: Trauma Dumping with My Guest, Scarlett Valentine

Trigger Warning: Trauma Dumping with My Guest, Scarlett Valentine

So, this is an interesting one. After a long hiatus, I 'm back with my friend, Scarlett Valentine (They/Them), who tells us all about their harrowing life. The trigger warning isn't a joke. For much of this episode, pretty much every horrible thing you can think of is mentioned. This person has lived through a lot in their 20 years, and is sharing only a slice of it here. Thankfully, the second half of this episode isn't as trauma heavy.

The Rainey Street Ripper: Is There A Killer in Austin?

The Rainey Street Ripper: Is There A Killer in Austin?

Things have been getting really tense over the last couple of months, as a series of bodies have been pulled out of Lady Bird Lake near Rainey Street. The spike in the frequency of the bodies showing up have many believing there is a serial killers lurking Rainey Street. The fear has now spread to me.

You're Owed 183k Dollars a Year! Find Out Why!

You're Owed 183k Dollars a Year! Find Out Why!

For whatever reason, price differences tickled my brain again. Something about how much TV's used to cost back in the day compared to now, and well. You know what happened. I fell down the rabbit hole, and discovered a lot more than I bargained for.

Mar 07, 202335:20
Is A Nuclear War Really That Bad?

Is A Nuclear War Really That Bad?

Been a sec, but I'm back with some interesting findings. Did you know that the US gets hit with something worse than a nuke at least 10 times a year? It's true. 10 times a year, and still the world turns. Find out more in the episode!

Terror Finds League City: The Texas Killing Fields

Terror Finds League City: The Texas Killing Fields

A little something different with this episode. Couldn't get the Texas Killing Fields off of my mind, so I decided to dip my toe a bit into the whole true crime thing. This is experimental, different, and not very good. I know that, but I figured I wanted to try something new.

5 States of Texas Update!

5 States of Texas Update!

Finally, after much number crunching, I plotted in the 5th state of Texas, then figured out how it would change the political landscape of America.

Jan 15, 202307:44
5 New States Coming to America?

5 New States Coming to America?

The idiotic Texas Secessionist movement has been getting attention again, and besides annoying me, it reminded me of an actual little known fact about the Lone Star State. While we have no right to secede from the Union, Texas does have the ability to split itself into 5 states at any point in time, an ability that no other state has. This was granted to us as part of our admission to the Union in 1845. I go over this fun oddity, and discuss how it would affect the United States if this were to happen. A lot of math was done, and a lot of headaches were suffered to figure all of this out, so I hope it was worth it.

IT'S COLD!!!!

IT'S COLD!!!!

It's 13F outside, with a wind chill of -3F IN TEXAS! WHAT'S GOING ON!? Also, hi. I know I've been gone again, but a lot has happened, which is usually how my life goes. Good news is that I'm back with a new episode. Gonna try for at least one of these a month. Seems like a much more doable schedule. Today, I go over where I've been, The Callisto Protocol, Dead Space, DS2, and much more!

I Swear I'm Not Neglecting You

I Swear I'm Not Neglecting You

I kinda hate that life is so busy that I can't do all of the things that I want to do. Bugs me. Anyway, I finally got around to beating God of War, and I have some interesting feelings on it.

Hell on Earth: Rooster Teeth & Achievement Hunter

Hell on Earth: Rooster Teeth & Achievement Hunter

The details that keep coming out about the truly horrific conditions at Rooster Teeth and Achievement Hunter are shocking, to say the least, especially to fans. I attempt to wade through it all, and wrap my brain around it.

GTA6 and Goldeneye? It's been one crazy week.

The Texas Killing Fields, and the Phantom Killer

The Texas Killing Fields, and the Phantom Killer

So, I nearly bit through my tongue in my sleep again, so it's really hard to talk. Getting really tired of this. I did manage to talk about some spooky events, while talking about the writing projects I'm working on.

I'M BACK, BABY!!!

Intro, Outro, and Background music by White Bat Audio. Video: 2 Hour Synthwave MIX - L.A. Sunset // Royalty Free Copyright Safe Music. 


I'm finally back, and settled in. I hate moving. Despise it, but I finally got everything out of my old house, and now I'm settled in the camper. With all of that worry behind me, I now have the strength to make content again! Yay! 

On this episode, I honestly don't know what I talk about. I ramble on about a lot of things. I know I talk about my book being released, its sequel, and my other writing projects. I talk about how much I love my new job, and I'm pretty sure I ramble on about Russia, or some shit at the end. Not really sure why. Guess it's just been too long since I've done this that I just had to get it all out of me. Anyway, I hope y'all enjoy!
