    KJ cries Happy Tears as Harry Potter meets Darts

    KJ cries Happy Tears as Harry Potter meets Darts

    That's right. This was the episode I cried. 
    The latest episode of The KJ Today Show is now live, and it's packed with incredible moments and meaningful moments. We delved into the world of darts, pop culture, and even had a special guest from Harry Potter! Here are three key takeaways from this episode:
    1. Positive Vibes and Happy Tears One of the standout moments from this episode was when I nervously shared a personal story about finding joy and happiness after a period of grief. It was a powerful reminder that even in challenging times, we can rediscover ourselves and experience moments of pure happiness. The podcast highlighted the importance of embracing change and growth, even after facing significant losses. Hear how our trip to New York for the US Darts Masters re-ignited my joy and hopefully inspires you to do the same!
    2. Engagement News and Proud Mom Moments  From interviewing top darts players to chatting with Matthew Lewis from Harry Potter, the episode showcased how no matter what you do in life, family matters. From the engagement announcement by darts world champion, Luke Humphries to a proud "Look What I Did, Mom" moment from fellow darts pro, Nathan Aspinall, get ready for all the feels. 
    3. Building Community and Creating Magic Through Darts The conversation with Matthew Lewis about the differences between darts culture in the UK and the US provided fascinating insights. The discussion touched on the unique aspects of darts as a sport, the role of tradition and community, and how the sport is evolving to attract a diverse audience. 
    I invite you to WATCH the full episode on our YouTube channel to catch all the exciting moments, engaging interviews, and positive vibes. Let's continue to celebrate the joy of pop culture, connect with inspiring individuals, and spread positivity in our community. Thank you for being a part of the KJ Today Show journey! 🌟

    Hello, Kinda Nerdy fans! In our latest episode, we had an absolute blast podcasting live from PopCon in Indianapolis. It was a special episode filled with laughter, heartfelt moments, and of course, all things nerdy!
    Joined by Tia from Geek Vibes Nation, we celebrated her first in-person appearance on the podcast, which added an extra layer of excitement to our discussions.
    We kicked off the episode with a fun anecdote about my less-than-stellar singing encounter with John Barrowman, setting the stage for a day filled with fandom and excitement.
    The episode was packed with highlights from PopCon, including our interactions with stars like Elijah Wood, Andy Serkis, and the actors from "Lord of the Rings." I shared a particularly memorable moment from the Andy Serkis panel, where he revealed the unexpected inspiration behind Gollum's voice—a cat having a hairball!
    We also delved into our fundraising efforts for Indie Neighborhood Cats, featuring exclusive "Lord of the Rings" art cards, and discussed the incredible array of activities available at PopCon, from gaming panels with the voices behind Red Dead Redemption and GTA V to unexpected delights like darts and wrestling.
    Our discussions were peppered with personal stories and reflections on how PopCon brings different fandoms together in a unique and inclusive way. We wrapped up the episode feeling grateful for the community, the shared passions, and the new memories we created.
