  • What_s the World Coming To_ - March 15th 2026
    Mar 17 2026
    On our current show, George Bautista and I sit down for a real, unfiltered conversation about the current state of the world — the good, the bad, and everything in between. It’s not about headlines as much as it is about perspective, experience, and trying to make sense of the times we’re all living through, with some humor, honesty, and a little bite along the way. If you enjoy thoughtful discussion that isn’t afraid to ask questions, challenge ideas, and still find moments to laugh, this is a conversation you’ll probably want to be part of

  • Dismissed from Starfleet! - March 1st 2026
    Mar 2 2026
    We always thought getting into Starfleet was the hard part. Years at the Academy, grueling simulations, psychological evaluations, learning how to negotiate with hostile alien species before breakfast. They told us only the best of the best earn the uniform. What they didn’t tell us is that one questionable subspace transmission and suddenly you’re standing on the bridge hearing, “Gentlemen… you are relieved of duty.” Apparently Starfleet frowns upon “experimental communications initiatives” that accidentally destabilize three sectors and a sponsorship deal.
    It’s not easy getting dismissed from Starfleet. Do you know how much paperwork it takes? There’s a form for misuse of a tricorder, a form for improper shuttle parking, and I’m pretty sure there’s a separate form just for “creative differences with Command.” We tried to argue that innovation has always driven the Federation forward. They responded by escorting us out with two security officers and a very polite Vulcan who assured us this was “the logical outcome.”
    The real sting is that Starfleet Academy acceptance rates are lower than surviving a Klingon dinner party, and we actually made it. We survived warp core drills, holodeck malfunctions, and at least one awkward mixer with the Andorian debate team. But in the end, it wasn’t a Romulan plot or a Borg invasion that took us down. It was Command calmly stating, “Your services are no longer required.” Boldly going where no one has gone before is inspiring. Boldly packing up your locker because you got dismissed? Slightly less inspiring… but still very on-brand for us

  • Are You Tough Enough_ - February 22nd 2026
    Feb 23 2026
    In this industry—and in this world—you have to be tough. Not loud. Not arrogant. Tough. Tough enough to hear “no” a hundred times and still show up the next morning ready to create. Tough enough to sit in rooms where people question your vision, your talent, your worth—and not shrink. The entertainment business will test you. It will test your patience, your confidence, and your character. If you can’t face confrontation, if you can’t handle uncomfortable conversations, you won’t last long.
    Being tough means saying what others don’t want to hear. It means standing on your beliefs even when it costs you opportunities. As an artist, you’re constantly being pulled in directions that may not align with who you are. People will try to reshape you, soften you, commercialize you, or silence you. Toughness is knowing who you are and refusing to betray that for applause. It’s being able to look someone in the eye and respectfully say, “That’s not my vision.”
    You also have to be tough enough to push through negativity. There will be people who talk down to you. People who underestimate you. People who try to make you feel small because they feel small. The industry can be filled with ego, insecurity, and power games. Toughness is not letting their behavior dictate your self-worth. It’s developing a thick skin without developing a cold heart. It’s staying disciplined when others are distracted, staying focused when others are critical.
    On this show, we talk about that real toughness. Not the fake bravado—but the inner strength it takes to survive and thrive in this business. We break down what it means to stand firm, to endure rejection, and to protect your integrity at all costs. Because if you’re going to build something lasting in this industry, you have to be strong enough to weather the storms—and bold enough to keep your voice when the pressure is on.

    Our First Star Trek Show 🚀
    Warp speed engaged. For our very first Star Trek episode, we’re boldly going where we probably should’ve gone years ago: straight into a spirited conversation about the greatest Star Trek film of them all.
    We’ll break down why this one stands above the rest—story, characters, themes, and that unmistakable moment when Star Trek stopped being just sci-fi and became something deeper. No rankings. No shouting. Just two lifelong fans having an honest, smart, and occasionally funny conversation about what makes this film endure.
    The real question is… can you guess which movie we’re talking about before we say it out loud?
    Set phasers to discussion. Engage. 🖖

  • The Precious Life Of The Artist - December 21st 2025
    Dec 23 2025
    This upcoming show is a reflection on the precious life of the artist. It speaks to the unseen battles creatives face every day—the manipulative people who seek to exploit talent, the drugs and distractions pushed as escape, and the constant pressure to compromise one’s soul to survive. In a world that often takes artists for granted, this show is a reminder that the artist is not disposable. Artists are vital, sensitive, and essential to culture, truth, and humanity itself. Protecting the artist means protecting something deeply valuable in this world.
