  1. A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Trailer Reaction (and other NYCC thoughts)

    A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Trailer Reaction (and other NYCC thoughts)

    On my first SOLO episode, I talk through my reactions to the trailer for A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, and some other thoughts from NYCC. I attended Day 1 of New York Comic Con last week, primarily to get this sneak peak at the new trailer and hear from the creator of this world and author of A Song of Ice and Fire, Fire and Blood, and Dunk and Egg, George R. R. Martin himself. He was joined by the showrunner Ira Parker alongside the two leads, Peter Claffey and Dexter Ansel. You can view this full panel at the link below, but be warned that George drops a MAJOR spoiler in the middle. I absolutely adore the worlds that George has built, and am obsessed with Game of Thrones, particularly the first five season. I've also read the books for GoT and AKOTSK, and have visited at least five filming locations because that's what I do for fun :). Just based off the trailer and the panel, I have high hopes that this show will make people fall in love with this world again, from a different angle, since its less about dragons and thrones and more about the oft-overlooked "smallfolk". Enjoy, and see the links below for the full panel, the trailer, and a deep dive breakdown by my favorite nerds over at the Ringer!

    The War of Art with Kaptain

    On this episode, I chat with my old friend Kaptain (Stephen Kaplan), a very talented electronic music producer and performer. I've been good friends with Stephen since middle school, where he was prolific in multiple instruments and bands, and I've watched his growth as an artist over the past two decades. We did a pod over Zoom back in 2021 and it was fun to run it back with him in person. We first talk about his new full video set that was just released on YouTube, Kaptain: Live Electronic Set at Spectra Art Space, which showcases his artistry and skill. We also get into a bunch fun and silly tangents on marching band, YouTube rabbit holes, and more.

    Doing The Work with Danny Patka

    Welcome to the first episode of Heating Up! After a four-year break, I wanted to revamp this podcast passion project, and my life coach Danny was the perfect first guest. I've changed so much since starting Just Kidding, in 2020 and Danny has played a key role in my growth and evolution.

    Tyler, the Creator Concert Live Reaction

    Guess who's back! After a four year hiatus, we are back with a special epsiode where me and my brother Nitin share our instant reactions to Tyler, the Creator's concert at Capital One Arena here in DC. We captured our live reaction on video (which will come out later) and this was my first time recording in person, which was extra special. Hope the audio doesn't suck ass, but even if it does the next ones will be better.

    Spittin' the Truth with Nile Ross

    This week, I talk to my friend and fellow Buddhist Nile Ross. Nile has been making hip-hop music for over ten years, and his style ranges from hype, catchy party music to very conscious and political topics. Nile and I talk about his pivot from football to music, his artistic family, Buddhism, as well as his strong feelings on the BLM movement and the need for reparations. Stick around till the end to hear a clip from his powerful song, Second Chances.  Enjoy!

  8. Healing Through Yoga with Elaine Oyang

    Healing Through Yoga with Elaine Oyang

    Four years ago, I suffered a tennis injury that led to two years of chronic leg and lower back pain. After seeing almost a dozen medical professionals including PTs, doctors, and chiropractors, I finally met Elaine Oyang. She is a certified yoga therapist, and after just four sessions with her, she gave me a simple sequence of yoga poses that helped me finally become pain-free. Her philosophy is that she can give her students the tools and framework to succeed, so that they are not ultimately dependent on her for their health. She specializes in chronic pain, but also is trained in Meditation, Guided Relaxation, Ayurveda, and Holistic Nutrition.  I talk to Elaine about how she pivoted from Biology to Yoga Therapy, and the differences between standard group yoga classes and Yoga Therapy. We also talk about Eastern vs. Western philosophy of health and the power of lifestyle change.  Enjoy! Guest Links Elaine's Website Elaine's Youtube Channel Elaine's Instagram
