MOON GLOW RADIO

February 18, 2023 08:00 - 54 minutes - 37.8 MB

if you didn't know-- i'm a radio host too! every month, i host a music radio show called 'i don't do drugs' and it's based on music. episodes are archived online, so they're always available at moonglow.net. this episode is close to my heart, and i'm obsessed with the track list. enjoy this slight departure from my usual content; track list below. for remember, as always, for podcast updates, follow @yourfavoritecupofcoffee on instagram and/or email [email protected]. availab...

my best friend of 9 years chose meth over me

November 28, 2022 01:00 - 49 minutes - 34.3 MB

i know that title is absolutely wild, but so is the tumultuous nature of my break up with my best friend of nearly a decade. addiction is a really touchy and important subject, and it's not so simple as someone 'choosing' drugs over their loved ones; it is very much a disease. it's not something that anyone is immune to, even people with trust funds and good jobs. addiction didn't change my friend, only amplified the many issues that we already had. everything happens the way it's meant to, ...

my first true crime podcast

June 10, 2022 14:00 - 23 minutes - 16 MB

hello guys, and welcome to my episode! truth be told, this transition to true crime is not only brief, but it is fleeting. i completely misunderstood a homework assignment that i was assigned a few months go, so i have an unrealistic amount of research that i did on three random cases. soooo y'all give get these facts. lmfao. we're taking a brief look at three cases; the lauren smith- fields case, the tamla horsford case and the kendrick johnson case. my heart goes out to the families of all...

lets talk about drugs

October 19, 2021 20:00 - 25 minutes - 17.7 MB

this is not a podcast that condemns or condones drug usage-- but we're damn sure gonna talk about it. i feel like with the recent influxes in fentanyl related deaths, it would be almost disingenuous not to talk about it-- especially considering that i'm from the northeast where things have gotten really bad. i've written papers about the sweeping nature of escapism, that we suffer from in our society, and even started a documentary about the oxy- to- heroin pipeline. listen here, to hear me ...

let's gossip about my life for the past 3 months

August 25, 2021 14:00 - 31 minutes - 21.4 MB

hello loved ones. it's been awhile. welcome to the first episode of season 3, bitches.  I am literally so spent. i have no way else to describe it-- life has been moving wayyyy too fast for ya girl. my internship, school, astrology consultations, the two books i'm trying to finish, boys, girls, nonbinaries, and my quickly deceasing bank account-- it's all absolutely kicking my ass. so, this podcast was a nice break.  SONG PLAYED: 'andale' by cousin deeky.

being in your 20s is the ghetto

March 07, 2021 18:00 - 11 minutes - 8.05 MB

i have truly never experienced an intense culture shock like that of being in your 20s. the transition from teenager to older teenager is almost despicable. i  genuinely hold that your teens don't end until you're 23.  you're seeing people you went to middle school with pop out their third kid and you're seeing people that were the top of your graduating college class killing it on onlyfans. (no shade. we support sex workers here). i'm 25, which is MILES better than 21-24, but hopefully not ...

rumors

December 07, 2020 02:00 - 12 minutes - 8.28 MB

have you ever walked into a class/ a shift and you immediately learned something about yourself? i'm blessed enough to be a thousand and five years old and at this very point in my life, i do not care about that type of stuff. not that that can't change-- but right now i'm doing okay. but i have heard some absolutely batty shit about myself. i completely understand that rumors are an absolutely vital part of the human experience and that high school 100% never ends, but that doesn't mean i c...

let's talk about felonies

December 07, 2020 02:00 - 14 minutes - 9.82 MB

don't let the title fool you, i'm actually literally so boring, i have no felony charges, do not worry. i feel like there is so much that goes unsaid about the 'justice' system that we have. between all of these jailhouse shows, and prisons in the US being a part of the literal backbone of our economy, shouldn't people know a but more about it? not that i'm an expert but you know who is? google. also on netflix, ava duvernay's 13th and when they see us, are amazing places to start. remember,...

it's finally here-- i'm moving to manhattan! i can't lie. i haven't been this excited about something in so long. i am excited for chinese food and walks through the city and learning the subway system and being with my friends and having my own space with a view and being able to strengthen by businesses and hone in on my craft(s). enjoy this hilarious mini cast, primarily regarding the woes of new york real estate and my ridiculous DMs. remember, as always, for podcast updates, follow @val...

an attitude of gratitude pt. 2

May 21, 2020 16:00 - 7 minutes - 5.36 MB

another gratitude list. i'm kind of going through it, i'm not gonna lie. this qt has be stuck inside or alone on these drives, so what am i doing? thinking about the impact of my many tumultuous past mistakes. i couldn't be more thankful for my time in california, but i can't deny the obvious pain i'm still carrying. the best way to combat these types of things is re-examine the reasons i've fallen in love with my present by remind myself how many good things i'm surrounded by, and how far i...

the mental hospital episode

May 10, 2020 00:00 - 14 minutes - 9.99 MB

don't call it a comeback, 'cause you never left. apologizes for the misleading title, but hey. marketing. took a little bit of a different approach this time. i've always written/ recorded movies about mental health because i just literally don't think people talk about it enough. i was honestly thinking about my audio production class and whatever i have due in two days for that and somehow that, and a huge cup of espresso, led me to this. mental health isn't important, it is V I T A L to o...

vallie, the filmmaker

April 27, 2020 04:00 - 26 minutes - 18.4 MB

a personal cast that's close to my heart. my absolute dream is to become a director, and that's exactly what we're chatting about today. i'm talking about four movies that i've been sitting on/ working on for a long time now. film is one of my favorite forms of art, and in my opinion, one of the most important ones that exist. i thank God and Buddha and my ancestors to the DEATH for my storytelling/ audio editing abilities because if i've learned anything, it's that (1) those are my natural ...

ma'am, doesn't your husband have nipples!?

April 22, 2020 20:00 - 16 minutes - 11.1 MB

from possibly one of my absolute favorite tiktoks audio templates ever, i can literally never stop laughing. i was telling one of my friends the story about when i got my nipples pierced (after that, and my brush with pancreatitis, don't you ever talking to me about pain). that got me thinking about the quasi- long list of body modifications that i've done, and the looooong list of body modification that i want to get the absolute second that we're out of lockup. it's alot. art belongs on th...

qu*rant*ne

April 20, 2020 02:00 - 11 minutes - 8.21 MB

bored in the house and i'm in the good holy house bored. this podcast started as an assignment for my on location filming class, and to be completely frank, this is probably the exact mp3 that the professor will receive (hi jodi, love you). based off three questions posted on my instagram: what is the first thing you're going to do when you're out of quarantine?/ what do you miss most about your everyday routine?/ and who do you miss the most who isn't in quarantine with you? i'm sick of thi...

goodbye, cali

April 11, 2020 14:00 - 8 minutes - 5.85 MB

my weekend mini- cast. after four long and important yet undeniably tumultuous years in california, i am finally moving back to the east coast. i could never be more grateful for my time here. i learned more about myself and the people around than i ever thought possible. there is no way on God's green earth, however, that i would repeat any single part of that at all. i can truly say i am leaving with the strongest sense of self i have ever had. thank you for everyone who contributed to my ...

things i regret but would never change

March 23, 2020 22:00 - 11 minutes - 7.94 MB

another mini- cast because my productivity has never seen a downturn of this caliber since i was a senior in college. due t this bullsh_t virus that i do NOT wanna talk about anymore, i've been sitting in my home and reflecting more than usual-- because if i get sick, who's gonna call my mom and tell her? not me. as i wrap up my time in california much quicker than anticipated, i think it's important to be as grateful as i can for all of my mistakes here. i didn't die, so. here is my compreh...
