A few months back, I spoke with my freind Amy Dubin about her Tea endeavor, Janam Tea & I ordered a bag. Claudia and I take some time out of homework helping, to make some tea and chit chat. We are in no way connoisseurs of tea, so our language in discussing tea is pretty elementary. But fortunately, Amy has a class on her website called "Sexify your Palate" which teaches you how to embrace what you love by learning about what you love, how to tell yourself and others what you love and be...

At "The End".....you'll find La Sirena...Ditch Plains Beach, Montauk, NY.... the Food Truck lady. My friend Lili. What do you get when you mix an Italian-Argentine with some punk rock, hippy lifestyle, deep breathing, creative, Motherhood pushin', food lovin', freedom seeker...and the beach?... You get my guest, Lili Fasanella. One of my many awesome friends brought into my life by my wife Claudia. Enjoy.

Oto Tachihiko (Location: Fukuoka, Kyushu Island, Japan)I met Oto about a decade ago through another freind, Rich Hoak. Oto was Ubi Quitous at the time and has since changed his name, due to the "Death or near-Death of Ubi" He is a human Phoenix. I love this guy because he comes off as "real" yet still creating a buzz when walking in public. He dresses different than others, he acts different than others, yet it's totally him. Almost like someone from another Universe showing up on Earth. He i...

Pepe Bermejo (Location: Madrid, Spain)A musician who started at 19, formed a ton of bands, left his successful but spiritually draining banking job to pursue his music further.

Pepe would hang out with Jason and I when we were forming Terrible Double Head Fishy and was present for all of our live shows. He's even in the live footage at Cross...

Claudia Amaya (Location: Bronx, NY)Claudia is my wife. I wanted to interview her back at the beginning of the Bestowed series, but our schedules didn't match up for a 40+ minute bock of time. With kids, something always pops up.Anyway, we speak about her time in film school, her film festival experiences and growing up in both El Salvador and Rockville Centre, NY. She is a very well rounded individual and keeps me inspired ever day. I'm very fortunate to be "shelter in place" with her.

Luz & Luna (Location: Bronx, NY)I needed to add a bit of lighthearted kid humor to this podcast. So, I recruited my daughters to help out. We talk about what life is like for them since schools went remote, and socializing in person has become a "no no". Hey, we're all going through it, some are in a much dyer situation than others. We're trying to make the best of it. I look at it like I look at the 1918 Influenza. That was a terrible time, it took society some time to heal. But, i...
