Hudson (Guitarist) and I talk about hurricanes, Houston, Texas culture and Texan values, politics, music and relationships.Note: the views expressed in this interview are not my own, but I do find it important to listen to the views of others and try to understand them. That is the goal of this recording; the goal is not to express my opinions. If anyone is curious about my opinions, I get into them on previous episodes. I encourage anyone who leans left and wants to hear someone who leans right explain his worldview to give this conversation a shot! It only goes political for a portion, and the rest is just personal conversation. All the best~

What a phenomenal night this was! Third in the live installments, Happy Sad Talk Thing brings you a stacked lineup of freestyle rap battles featuring Gideon Elson and Remi wolf, musical comedy genius from Jack DeMeo and Chase Rosenberg, and glorious musical harmonies as always from Trousdale! (Audio note: the audience was not mic'd properly, so the laughs aren't very loud, BUT TRUST ME EVERYONE WAS INTO IT!)

What a glorious evening! Fantastic live variety show from the kitchen floor of my apartment. Bible readings, slam poems, improvised screenplays, Frank Ocean covers, and more! Featuring Jensen McRae, Commedus Interruptus (Jack DeMeo, Chase Rosenburg, Ryan Wagner, Antonio Chicco), and BAUM! A night for the ages truly, chalked full of absurdism, #realtalk, sweet jams. Enjoy!
