BEING A GECKO IN NEW ZEALAND Aug 16, 2023

Show notes

This episode starts with two interviews I did on the streets of Auckland, New Zealand: the first is with a local bartender who talks to me about bad spending habits, moral quandaries, eating burgers, Kiwi life, and more. The second is an American transplant who I get into a really deep conversation with about the meaning of happiness. It was cool. I like talking to people in real life because I can look them in the face and tell they are real people. I sometimes think all of the callers are actors being paid to Truman Show me.

Then we end with a caller who is exhausted by being the "mother figure" amongst his peers and wishes to walk the universe.

Today is your birthday. I am a gecko.

“I NEED TO KICK MY EX OUT” Aug 13, 2023

Show notes

A man stresses over whether or not to kick his ex-wife out of the house after financially supporting her and her kids for several months, while he also deals with a stalker ex-girlfriend.

We talk about the various avenues of his life that have brought him to this point and what he hopes for his life in the future. This was a pretty intense one with a lot of layers to it.

Then a mail carrier tells me about several altercations she’s gotten into with neighborhood dogs, and we talk to a caller who has far overbooked her schedule.

“I’M A LONELY GAMER BOY” Jul 30, 2023

Show notes

A caller wakes up to his best friend and his girlfriend having sex at his place, causing him to wonder if he will be a "lonely gamer boy" forever.

Then we revisit the concept of "gooning" - watching several screens of porn at once - with a guy who adopted the lifestyle during the pandemic and is suspicious that he might have an addiction.

Finally we transport to the streets of Denmark where we discuss what makes Denmark the happiest place in the world, thoughts on America, and other stuff.

Walmart at 3 am was a bad idea. I am a gecko.

“I PLAY IN A NUDE VOLLEYBALL LEAGUE” Jul 26, 2023

Show notes

A professional nude volleyball player tells me all of the ins and outs of what goes on at a nudist resort. No pun intended. Seriously. There’s a lot less sex going on than I thought.

Then a caller tells me about his dating life after testicular cancer left him with only one ball. He also goes to the same college I went to and we make a lot of niche references to the various places that people smoke weed on campus. It’s a deep connection.

Finally we transport to a park in Amsterdam to talk to a Dutch student filmmaker about messing with tourists, his thoughts on America, and life in general.

Sorry. I am a gecko.

A woman shares her thoughts on being older than most of her co-workers at Starbucks and why she continues working there despite some negative experiences and a pending dream of running a business.

Afterwards 2 amateur graffiti artists tell me how they defiled various billboards including one for an adoption agency which I guess is kinda messed up.

Lastly we transport to the streets of Glasgow Scotland to have a very open conversation with a man who just left a detox facility.
