Be Yourself, Do It Yourself A.J. Chiarella

Kicking it off with weekly LIVE Be Yourself, Do It Yourself Episodes. I had my friend Nyrell, someone I grew up hanging with since our days in Yonkers Middle School. We talked about how he became a barber through DIY means, entrepreneurship as a whole, and self-help and self awareness that he often speaks about on his own podcast "Talk Ya Ish." This was an awesome and inspiring conversation for me and I'm stoked to see him killin it.

This conversation is actually a throwback to August of 2020 when I spoke with my boy Blass 89 (@fingers2fat) during the 24 hour live stream that we did. Blass is an amazing local artist, talent, and friend. This conversation was really just us catching up after not hanging out for several months. We talked about growing up in Yonkers, making music, Taco Bell, and being yourself. Would love to do a Part 2 at some point.



Check out Blass' music on all streaming platforms. Follow his socials (@fingers2fat) on Instagram.

This week's guest was my close friend, sax player of Keep Flying, John James Ryan. John was one of the guests I immediately considered when I first thought of the idea of creating  podcast based around DIY culture because he has truly done it all. He has seen the world, he has worked multiple different parts of the business, and so much more.

This week is an episode I streamed live on the Shakeout Twitch channel a few months back with Matthew Geroni (@gravmasterhash). I came across Matt through Tik Tok because he makes awesome videos about punk rock. We talked about DIY music, some of the best shows he's attended, and his podcast "Only  Posers Don't Listen To Podcast."

Happy New Year!!! I'm back at it with another episode. I am going to be as consistent as possible this year (hoping to post a new episode every Monday)! This week's episode is actually a throwback conversation with my Dad from August 2020. We talk about growing up in Yonkers, listening to rock and hip hop music, baseball, and how he got detained in Russia. Let me know what you think! And follow me on YouTube and instagram

This was an awesome episode of the podcast where i spoke with my friend Fernando who co-owns/runs The Fox and King, a promotion company based out of the Bronx. Fernando is an awesome guy that is working to build up the music community and it was a pleasure having him on. If you are a musician or music lover who lives in Westchester/The Bronx, this is definitely a dude you need to know about. Hope you enjoy! Feel free to leave a review and subscribe to the podcast. Cheers!
