    #10 | Embarrassing Moments, Breakfast, Escaping Technology, Documentaries

    On this week's all-new episode of Constellation, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Last Stand's coordinator and shopkeep Micah Watson and executive producer Ben Smith. Micah comes to the mic eager to talk about breakfast: Eggs, bacon, potatoes, French toast, waffles, pancakes, cereal. The whole shebang. Dagan prods each of us to share a truly embarrassing story from our past, ones we've never discussed before in any setting. Ben waxes about the power of documentaries, their endless draw, and how they seem to make even the most mundane topics thoroughly interesting. Finally, Colin breaks down how he feels technology is making his life worse, and how to escape all of modernity's many bells and whistles. Can we undo progress and recapture a simpler time?

    #9 | Superstitions, Trading Cards, ADHD, Ketchup

    It's time yet again for another episode of Constellation, and this week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Sacred Symbols co-host Chris Ray Gun and Defining Duke co-host MrMattyPlays. Chris discusses his ADHD diagnosis, the bombardment of stimuli we're all subjected to on a daily basis, and how we retain focus in such a busy world. Matty dives into his trading card obsession, specifically with Pokémon cards, which he loves to collect and grade. What are our respective histories with card-collecting? Dagan's eager to get superstitious, exploring the various ways we try to appease an unknown set of rules while navigating our lives, rules that make little sense and bare virtually no consistency. And finally, Colin comes to the staunch defense of ketchup, which he thinks should be included in your meals as much as possible. Ketchup forever!

    #8 | Meeting the Listeners, Packing For A Trip, Exploring New Cities, Hotels vs. AirBNBs

    We (the Brothers Moriarty) are pleased to welcome LSM Executive Producer Dustin Furman and LSM Coordinator Micah Watson to the show, and this week, we're focusing our topics on our recent trip to Texas for An Evening With Last Stand II. Dustin reflects on meeting our audience at not only our recent event, but events past, and on the pure and undeniable power of positive fan interaction. Micah wonders how we go about packing for trips, and how we all spin the wheel when it comes to preparing for the unexpected. With none of us having ever visited Houston, Dagan's topic is framed around exploring new places, and our inclination (or lack thereof) to make the most out of limited time. Finally, Colin wades into the ongoing hotels vs. AirBNB debate, one that seemed long-settled until recent years, when hotels started making a roaring comeback.

    #7 | The Perfect Crime, Ghosts, Life Hacks, Vacations

    It's another week, which means it's time for another brand-new episode of Constellation, Last Stand Media's conversational podcast. This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by the Dukes: Lord Cognito and MrMattyPlays. Cog kicks things off with notions of vacationing, how we carve free time out for ourselves, and what rest and relaxation looks like in our respective lives. Matty inquires about the crew's various so-called life hacks, and how we manage our time, activity, and production in a world that demands so much of us. Dagan is curious if any of us believe in ghosts, if we've had eerie encounters in the past, and what we make of the possibilities of the ethereal plane and the truly unknown. And finally, Colin winds things down with a thought exercise: The perfect crime. In an era of modernity, technology, and constant connection, is such a thing even possible today? If so, what would need to be accounted for?

    #6 | Pet Peeves, Life After Death, Drinking, The Soundtrack of LSM

    We're pleased to welcome a very special guest to this episode of Constellation: The man behind all of Last Stand's music, Ramon Narvaez (aka Colin's best friend since freshman year of college). This week, Dustin asks what our pet peeves are, and what trivial human behaviors drive us mad. Dagan discusses the ups and downs of drinking alcohol, and our various bouts with it (or lack thereof) over time in our respective lives. Ramon goes into the nerdy weeds to outline how Last Stand's soundtrack came to be, and how it's evolved over time, with special attention paid to production and inspirations. And finally, Colin wants to know the answer to a simple-yet-monumental question: What happens when we die?

    #5 | Pizza, Falling in Love, Kid Money, War

    Welcome -- one and all! -- to another episode of our conversational podcast, Constellation. This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Last Stand's duo of producers, Dustin Furman and Ben Smith. Dustin tells us the tale of how he fell in love with his wife, and wonders how and when we knew we knew we loved our significant others. Ben asks about so-called 'kid money', or the cash young people earn and spend. How did we raise funds as children and teens, and how do we feel about the ever-growing economic power of kids? Dagan's topic is nitty and gritty: Pizza! Geographic specificity, topping choices, snootiness. The whole deal. And finally, Colin wants to talk about war, and an American society that seems to find itself militarily-engaged once a generation as if history never happened at all. Should we fear the repercussions of prolonging, escalating, and facilitating a conflict that has nothing to do with us?

Glad to have a conversational podcast from LSM!

Being a fan of Colin’s since BEYOND, I appreciated him and the guys at KF doing the 4 topics weekly in a conversational podcast. That eventually fell to the wayside for KF so I’m glad Colin revived the format over here at LSM. Always an entertaining listen!

Another Banger from Last Stand Media

If you enjoy off topic tangents podcasters tend to go on while doing a show then you’ll love this show. This was conceived because Last Stand Media’s other podcasts couldn’t contain them! It’s a similar format to another one of their great shows, KnockBack, but instead of two hosts there’s four and instead of one topic, each of the hosts brings a topic they want to discuss. Like the hosts’ views, you’ll get a wide range of topics that I’m sure you’ll find one that you can enjoy and relate to. Five outta five Last Stand! Keep up the great work!
