Lucky number 13! This week I'm joined by my work boyfriend (with intentions of making him my work husband after our date this weekend), Amir.
We talk about where we work (and how certain people have touched our lives), coming out as a gay black man, the gentrification of San Francisco, music (of course), and other random shit.

In this episode, I speak with Mada about kitty litter, winning a Daft Punk album from a radio station, not being "that guy" at a DJ set or tribute band show (with a public apology to Darwin and the rest of Temptation - A Tribute To New Order), DJ Honda, how music saved Mada's life, it's okay to cry, and racial stereotypes.
When Rick Astley's 'Together Forever' comes on while you're talking with a future guest about their playlist you record a short episode.
Thanks, everyone, for getting the podcast up to #85 in Comedy.
Part 2 of my chat with Mada will be released early next week. Stay tuned.

Unlike J.J. Abrams, I have a title for my ninth episode.
This week, I'm joined by Mada. We discuss a whole range of random stuff in this episode. She talks about how fucked up our country is right now, how Portishead saved her life, and her hatred of lettuce in burritos.
A little mini-episode, highlighted by seeing three great tribute bands last night - Temptation (New Order), Erasure-esque (duh, Erasure), and Truth or Dare (another duh, Madonna). They'll all be performing again at The Ritz in San Jose, CA on 2/1/19. Definitely worth checking out.
Thought for the day: Try not to be an asshole. We have enough of them in this world already. Thanks!
Working on getting a guest for the next episode. In the meantime, I wanted to briefly talk about mental health and addiction.
If you are struggling, please don't be afraid to reach out for help. There are plenty of people who have gone through what you are going through. It doesn't matter if you've relapsed or are feeling suicidal, there's help. Don't be ashamed to ask.
In this episode I speak with classically-trained pianist, Garrett Collins. Garrett talks about his upbringing, living in Paris, his work to help the homeless, and some spiritual aspects that he has implemented in his time.
