Distraction: Impossible Joe Novak, Matt Zadell, and Nic Tyler
-
- Sociedade e cultura
We've all found out the hard way just how important a good distraction can be while the world around us burns. A distraction can be anything: games, shows, movies, experiences, ideas, and beyond. Join lifelong friends Joe Novak, Matt Zadell, and Nic Tyler as they tackle the impossible mission of finding the bright spots in a dark time. Even though they're focused on distractions, the team certainly won't ignore the things they want to be distracted from.

Side Mission: Musical Chipotle Obsession
I know we said new episodes every 2 weeks, but we can't seem to stay away! Turns out we record way too much when we get together, enough even to make a second distraction out of it. In video games, a good side mission is distracting and enjoyable without necessarily moving forward the main plot of the game. In our version of a Side Mission, you may hear things that are a bit more introspective or off-the-wall than our Main Missions compiled in a shorter format. Let us know at DistractionImpossible@gmail.com if you enjoy!

Mission 2: No Mission Is Complete Without A Mixtape
Join our team as they talk about what's new in their lives, what the Warner Bros/HBO Max deal might mean for their future distractions, why mixtapes pack an emotional punch at any age, and much more.
Every 2 weeks Matt and Nic will attempt to expand Joe's musical horizons by each making him a mini-mixtape based around a chosen theme. Spoilers: The first theme is Love. They'll be discussed in two weeks in Mission 3, but we invite you to check them out as well and let us know what you think!

Mission 1: Assembling the Team
Welcome to our very first episode! This one's longer than future episodes as we spend some extra time getting to know our team and why we've taken on our impossible mission (not to be confused with the franchise with the similar sounding name...). We also discuss what sorts of things distract us from this crazy world of ours, as well as some of the things we're looking to be distracted from. Come start this weird and wild ride with us!
