I changed the picture, but the name remains the same. You're still here as well.
We have work to do. Listen along as I read aloud.
In this commercial-free episode, I decompress over the death of my father. I'm not completely done, but it's up now for the world to hear. I'm going to get some pizza and beer to celebrate.Please check out the playlist referenced in the episode here: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0FLr0lWCAM6VtUMjF9r0tQ?si=1db8d00d8b9b4f0b--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/matthew-paradiso/message
Since seasons don’t matter, it’s a new one! Season 3 starts here! He’s here. This took almost four months to make and produce.

I spent twenty minutes recording this with my phone on my couch while watching a guy trim horse hooves. Please give me a listen. I have a lot to say but I’m running on fumes right now.

It's the lighter, softer side of my podcast where I discuss my failings as a husband and future father, as well as why drinking a beer is cheaper than a Zoloft prescription.
This one's short and to the point.

I spend a lot of this episode ranting about media bias and the fairness doctrine, the FCC's appeals to remove TikTok from Google Play and Apple's App Store, as well as polar bear rapists. Fucking polar bears. Also, we learn about Kuala Lumpur.

I rant a lot.
This is shorter than my previous episode, but it's more concentrated.
For best results, take it without food or water, then call me in the morning.

I welcome back the lovely Miss Mel for a scrumdiddlyumptious romp through recording in GarageBand, configuring microphones, having us in mono but still stereo, discussing the future, politics, personal stuff, and lastly, whether our ER doctor really told us we have a few minutes left.

Welcome to a personal episode that last for almost two hours!
Inspired by my wonderful wife, I open up about my last relationship and talk about the effects of domestic abuse.
I also talk about the perfect hotdog and how much wood is in a Lincoln Log.
That last sentence is false.
Mel's podcast is here: https://anchor.fm/mel-para13/episodes/In-a-constant-state-of-being-2-e1k10ci/a-a848n4l

We talk about Mel starting a new podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6d8tATpp5JwNjjuppXbotA?si=kd6Q41jHQm2Lx7c59CpbsQ&
We also discuss why I say we when I mean me and how you should always say you are spending money instead of saving money.
Thanks for listening. And for reading the description. You can't tell how awesome a podcast is going to be without one.

Take action. Listen as I try to unpack my thoughts on school shootings and the Roman empire.
Also, I have a dry throat and sneeze into the microphone. Betcha didn't know that!

In this episode, I use colorful language more than I would normally, we talk about bills passing the House of Representatives without Republican support, Elon Musk's exposure problem, and why I can't record a podcast without listening to a howling cat or sneezing a bunch.
Also, a huge thank you to everyone listening. You've helped me earn ad money! I'm doing it! (Even if it's only $0.04 right now, it's still something!)

I've decided on a format that works best for me.
I'm going to be your civics teacher. We'll cover everything from American Civics class and draw in some World Civics whenever applicable
This episode covers the best way to tell if your government is still functional and the correct way to serve an omelette.
Maybe not on the omelette part. That's next episode. I'm leaving it in here though as I doubt anyone reads this stuff.
If you do, send me a message.

We're getting somewhere now.
Hop aboard as we discuss how 2008 started a crazy development in American history and how I feel about the youth of the nation.
Also, I learned how to put background music into my segments. I'm not sure how to feel about that.

This is mostly the episode for an as yet unknown person to listen to when he/she becomes old enough to hear things. It's not been published widely as usual, and if you are listening and are not the as yet unknown person, thanks for your dedication to the show!
Also, I demonstrate the effects of 7-Eleven coffee and how forgetfulness is apparently a trademark of my life.

The rebirth of a podcast is now.
I'm back baby! This time, I'm in your ears for 90 minutes, A FEATURE-LENGTH PODCAST?!
That's right. I'm trying this thing for the education and nostalgia of it.
I cover TSA, the Patriot Act, September 11, 2001, CNN, MSNBC, FOX, and taping our windows with trash bags after the Department of Homeland Security advised us to after the attacks of September 11.
What a long, strange trip it's been.

The Series Finale
I talk about what's coming, where we've been, how we're doing, and why I made this series.
Also, the sounds of cats crunching food for some ASMR events and mild exhaustion can be heard throughout the episode.
Thank you for joining me for the past few months! I'll see you in the next show!

I unveil my long-term plans for the podcast and discuss my New Year's Resolutions, or lack thereof.
There's a lot of coughing because I'm a dummy who hasn't learned how to drink properly.
I also divulge how many times a day I brush my teeth! (Spoiler alert: it's one.)

This time, I really am sober when I ramble on about my anniversary dinner and talk about past holiday celebrations.
We even discuss why Thanksgiving is the better holiday. (A hint: bringing food is always better than bringing presents.)
Thanks for listening!

This one heads for the heartstrings as I retell one of my favorite stories about love and also try to remember the proper order of storytelling. Miller High Life and Abita Brewing Company played a small role in my mental degradation in this episode.
Please message me or give me feedback so I can improve. Also, stay tuned for a Garageband produced episode in the near future!
