Talking about Nick Cave stuff  and eating caribou.   Nick Cave is a singer songwriter.  He's been active as a multi-disciplinary artist since late 70's.  Written books, movies, and many albums.  He also wears silly suits but makes them look serious.  But I talk about non of these things.  I just ramble about some ideas that stem from that guy.  Who's work I am a fan of.   I also can't sleep proper.   

Bears, Elks, and Covid Vaccines

August 15, 2021 21:00 - 49 minutes - 34.1 MB

Is this title 'click bait' enough?    Will have to wait and see.  Might have to set up 'the baits'.  Where the title is not an accurate portrayal of the content enclosed.  However, the point is to get someone to 'click'.  Because 'clicks' are considered currency when posting things on the internet.  So click on this and listen to me ramble about stuff, then you can decide if the title is misleading 'click bait'. Strange week, mentally askew.  

No Sleep and Timezones

August 09, 2021 00:00 - 23 minutes - 16 MB

Yay, only 20 some minutes.   I don't remember all what I talked about other than my lack of sleep, some track and field event in grade 4, and timezones.   Lots of cool music I've been listening to this week throughout.     I'll talk more better next week.  

Music Recommendations...and my back is a mess

August 02, 2021 23:00 - 46 minutes - 32.1 MB

Finally I ramble about music I've been listening to.   It didn't come out of my mouth like my brain thought it would.  Maybe I'll give it another try some other time.  That's why this is 'I Practice Talking Good'.  Hoping to become better with my mouth words.   Also I really hurt my back this week.  

Understanding that you do not understand....

July 26, 2021 00:00 - 57 minutes - 39.4 MB

56min!!!    I'm so sorry it's so long.  I didn't realize I blabbed so much this week.   Was gonna talk about music this week but got side tracked by a Youtube video and trying to understand empathy and...understanding.   I'll talk about music next week.   Also I've upped the audio production once again!  I am learning! 

Alone but not lonely.

July 19, 2021 00:00 - 36 minutes - 25.1 MB

I kept it just over 30min this time. Rummage sales, shoes, loneliness, small talk, and Norm Macdonald.   Also a bunch of music and audio clips I probably should not be using.

TOTW. EP 09 Midlife Crisis. Not the Faith No More song. But that is a good song.

February 24, 2021 19:00 - 26 minutes - 18.4 MB

I should have included the Faith No More song.   But I hate cliche's.  Whatever.  I think I'm going through a midlife crisis.  But that would mean I'm going to live till I'm 80.  Well, I did want to reach 85, like Leonard Cohen.  He was still making stuff up until his death.  Maybe I should have included a Cohen song.  Damn it.
