Podcast #73 What's Going On Lately?

Welcome back to the Not So Fresh Podcast, in episode 73 we discuss: • Given the unfortunate recent events in Uvalde, TX we take a moment to talk a little bit about what happened and voice our frustrations. RIP to the children and teachers who were taken from this world. • We talk about school systems and how one school in a sector of San Diego trains to handle dire situations that may arise. • It's Memorial Day Weekend and for you crossfit heads that means Murph is ready for you to pay dues! We go over a few workout tips on how to get through it. • Events that are going on around San Diego. A local record shop had their art show on Friday 5/27 and a lot of the SD Hip Hop crowd came out. We talk about whether Red Bull BC One around the world could have been promoted better. • A little banter about that Johnny Depp trial comes up, it's pretty funny how it all unfolds so we just mention all the hilarious crap that pops up in it. • There's a local dance instructor that plead guilty to lewd acts with minors. This is someone that is known around a lot of Southern California within the choreography scene that targeted young boys. Basically, f**k this guy. We go talk about the situation and give our take on it. • Claudia talks shit about how Padres fans get outnumbered in their own baseball stadium ala Petco Park. So we go into discussion why that happens and she realizes the Padres are the better team after the Padres just sweeped the Gigantes. • There is a lot more discussed on the podcast amongst all the bulleted info. As always we close the podcast with what we've been watching or listening to since the last podcast. Peace.

Podcast #70 The Legend of Joey Gold. Special Guest: Optic

In podcast #70 We invite Bboy Optic to the podcast along with a deep conversation with Joey Gold. • We start off with an interview with Optic on his background and how it relates to dance. • We have Joey Gold join in on the podcast, if you aren't aware of who Joey Gold is listen in. He was in the San Diego Bboy scene from the early 2000's to his exit from San Diego in 2008. He was a formidable figure in the breaking scene within San Diego. • Joey is an artist, dancer, etc. We go into his time coming up in Arizona and how he came to San Diego with a mission to prove himself in the SD breaking scene. • At the time Joey was hunting the best bboys in San Diego. Hear about his time calling out Tuff Rocking E Swift to battle & having Rainen throw fierce hadouken fireballs at him. • Joey was a candidate for Rock So Fresh, although he didn't become a member of the crew hearing what was going through his head during those moments clears up the air for a lot of us. • We get into how the breaking scene is now, we discuss how the music is now and the way breakers present themselves. Is it all silly to us now? Has it taken a turn for the worse? • Growth is important, over the past decade plus a lot of us have progressed onto other things like family and kids... however we still take a part of our breaking with us into our future. • Joey Gold had an influence on a lot of dancers and how RSF approaches dancing, then he took a French Exit from San Diego. • Optic discusses his view on a lot of what is going on with dancers are doing now. Want to hear what he thinks about breaking in the olympics?! It's a very good discussion. • Optic opens up about why he left Rock So Fresh. Is it still a crew? • We realize we're all on the same page about social media for dancers.... are we in the age of tik tok breakdance? • Plus much much more!! Tune in! Guest appearance by Beat Puppets E-Van Damme for this podcast! • As usual we wrap up the discussion with what we've been listening to or watching since the previous podcast. Optic loves to listen to Gay Ray! Or is it Ray Gay? Anyways tune in. Shout out to Whack Donuts! Is he a sponsor? Maybe he'll send us more donuts since we shouted him out!!! Thanks to Joey Gold & Optic for taking the time to chat and open up about a lot of things some of us didn't know about. Peace - Destijl
