I won't lie. I'm fucking busy. Today is the day that I have to record, and it's already 10pm and I haven't written a word. Therefore you're getting a repeat...but don't worry, it's one of my favorite episodes. I think you'll like it. Don't forget to email me!  

Episode 130: Goodbye To All That...Again

When you work at a slaughterhouse you have to be prepared. You have to wear the proper protective gear, and you have to know that at the end of the day you may be covered in blood. 

Episode 129: The Slaughterhouse

From time-to-time we all feel like we are doing the right thing...then we end up drinking three gallons of water and pissing every fifteen minutes and we have to question our approach. 

Episode 128: Sugar

Every once in a while you find yourself trapped in a hedge maze with no escape. That’s normal...right? 

Episode 127: The Maze

Episode 122: Mr. Noah And The Drugs

Sometimes we do things begrudgingly and they end up paying off. 

Episode 121: Just This One

There’s this geosocial app for smartphones that is geared towards gay men to have quick encounters with people in their vicinity and promises to deliver a hit-it-then-quit-it scenario…like something that can be wiped away with a dirty towel from the hamper and forgotten forever. But sometimes it’s not so easy to get rid of. 

Episode 120: This Sort Of Thing

I love telling stories. I tell what some would call lies. I have always had trouble distinguishing between what happened and what might have happened. And I remain unconvinced that this distinction, for my purposes, matters. This podcast is a weekly story from my life that I tell as accurately as I see fit.
