Welcome back to Season 5 of the Spiritual Spiral Podcast and first off, you're probably wondering, where the heck did I go over the last two months? Well, one of my cats got REALLY sick and I've been busy studying for an exam so I had to take a little pause from the pod. But my cat Nellie is much better so let's get on with today's episode. As I continue to release music in 2024, I keep thinking a lot about the process of creativity and what I believe are some tools to help me throughout my process

Combating the Cultural "Insecurity Blanket"

How do you feel after you stare at TikTok or IG for an hour? How about thirty minutes of watching the news? Compare that to your emotional state of mind after watching silly cat videos? Notice a difference? HA. I'll consider this "Part 2" of a podcast I recorded earlier this season. For today's episode, I'm still thinking a lot about how we react to certain stimuli in our day to day to lives. From the news, social media, the onslaught of texts and information that enters our periphery each day, how

And here we go! Season 5 of The Spiritual Spiral continues on. For today's episode, I just HAD to talk about the latest season of The Bear. A little context, I'm a HUGE fan of season 1 and 2. From the acting, the storylines, the music, the hypnotic and frenetic pace of the show, I'm all in! So WTF happened to Season 3?! Sure there are still moments of fantastic TV and even when The Bear is mediocre, it's still pretty darn good, but seriously, what the heck happened? Now you may be wondering, why do

HERE WE GO. Episode 2 of Season 5 of the Spiritual Spiral podcast is LIVE. So let me ask you. Have you noticed how there's A LOT of news outlets? No? Well, we've got X, I mean Twitter, I mean X. Free Press, FB news, Apple News, The Times, The Post, good old Fox, The Globe, CNN, CSPAN, MSNBC. I could keep going and going. Kind of like the Energizer bunny. They keep going and going. So, I have a question for you. After you watch the news, how do you feel? Anxious? A little fidgety? Brain fried? TMI

I'm baaaaaaack. That's right, a BRAND NEW season of the Spiritual Spiral Podcast is here. After a four month hiatus, I finally felt inspired to hit that good old "record" button and bring the show back. I'm going to do things a little different and break the show up into seasons. I know, SUPER FANCY. I just can't keep up with the pace of society and while I've tried to keep the pedal on the gas, and release new episodes each week, throughout the whole year, it's just not possible. Don't worry, I'm

Is Everything Potentially Life-Threatening?

The Downward Facing Spiritual Spiral ·

2024/02/05

So many potential reasons to be nervous in today's society but how often are our own fears simply overblown thanks to our blurred perception of reality? Today on the Spiritual Spiral, a quick episode about fear and why I'm trying to rewire my brain's perception of fear. I've dealt with anxiety for a large portion of my life, but I feel my perspective surrounding fear shifting to a healthier and much more manageable space. With the "horrific"(not my word choice) rain storm "pounding" down on Los

A New Artist's Way and Big Magic

2024/01/16

When you create, do you ever think of your audience and how your work will be received or do you solely create for yourself? Can art be both a personal and cathartic experience while also being an attempt to connect with an audience? After a brief hiatus from podcasting, I'm excited to be back on the Spiritual Spiral for the first episode of 2024. I find myself in this odd and precarious spot emotionally. On the one hand, I'm thrilled to have new music to share, but living in a world with so many

Today on the Spiritual Spiral, I'm thrilled to welcome Portland based photographer and web designer, Nathaniel Perales, to the show. I've been a HUGE fan of Nathaniel's photography for a long time. So much so that most of the cover photos of my records or singles typically feature Nathaniel's work. He and I begin by dissecting the crazy intersection where technology and social media collide with the intimacy of creativity. We talk about the emotional ups and downs we feel when we release new art

Aaron and I have been talking about doing a podcast together for a LONG time so it's great to finally make it happen. Aaron's another one of those brilliant people I know who is truly a Renaissance man. He's an entrepreneur, storyteller, author, a CEO, a musician and a HUGE fan of the arts. He is also big on

Well get ready for a FIRE episode for today's Spiritual Spiral as I welcome my friend from high school, Matt Dery, back to the show. Matt is an enormous sports fan with a ton of experience behind the podcast mic as he is currently the host of THREE podcasts; the Locked on Lions Podcast, The Pistons Pod and the Dery Bothers Guardian Cast where he talks Guardians baseball with his brother. But the thing about Matt that I probably love the most is how he has a heart of gold. Matt may never be shy about

Today on the Spiritual Spiral, you're in store for a wonderful chat as I welcome Trygge Toven to the show. Because Trygge pursues multiple creative outlets while having a passion for business and app development, it's fair to say Trygge is a true "Renaissance Man." Trygge is probably best known as a music supervisor but he is also a singer, a music producer, an entrepreneur, a soon to be author and he also just released a new app called Anti Journal. Anti Journal is a modern day take on the diary

Is it the Art, Image or Marketing? Great Interrupters...

2023/08/24

Over the last 8 months, I've been working on a bunch of new music to the point where I have five songs that are done. I'm beyond thrilled and I CAN NOT wait for people to hear these songs. But then my head spins to that exhausting head space of marketing, social media, making videos and then I wonder, what does it take to break through the cultural noise. Which then leads me to the bigger question... Is art REALLY about the quality of the art anymore? Today on the Spiritual Spiral, a three part

Today on the Spiritual Spiral, a little mash-up episode as I dive into a few topics that don't necessarily relate to one another, but they have been on my mind. First up... a quick dedication to Robbie Roberston who recently passed away. I was never really a fan of The Band, BUT I loved his solo record from 1987. It was produced by Daniel Lanois and features U2 and Peter Gabriel so definitely check it out. Then I discuss the new movie Oppenheimer, or as I like to call it, "Boringheimer." Sure,

Mt. Rainier & People Watching are SUPER Boring...

Well it appears Mt. Rainier has officially turned into a total snoozefest. I was on an airplane flying home from Seattle, with a bird's eye view of the tip of Mt. Rainier, right outside my window. And while I was mesmerized by the view, when I looked around the airplane, no one seemed to care. You know why? Because if your brain is stuck on Tiktok or IG, Mt. Rainier is SUPER boring. Oh, and are you a people watcher? I LOVE to people watch. Or maybe I should say, I USED to love to people watch

What if, with a little more self awareness, some curiosity, and a little trial and error, YOU could be the greatest doctor your body and mind could ever need? On today's episode of the Spiritual Spiral, I begin a collection of episodes where I talk a bit more in-depth about health and the connection between the body and the mind.

Why Music May be Losing its Cultural Relevance

2023/06/24

I LOVE MUSIC! You probably knew that already. As a DJ and songwriter, music has always been a huge outlet for me but I also love to listen to music. There are certain records that left a HUGE impact on me; Superunknown, Dirt, Parachutes, Wildflowers, Sea Change and of course OK Computer. And not to mention some of the incredible concerts I've been to which left me spellbound. Sure, I may be a BIT biased, but I believe the effects of music on our body and mind, can be deeply profound, inspiring and

In part one, we discussed the brilliance of Succession and for part two, we talk about the brand new documentary, Smartless on the Road. I TOTALLY understand the mass appeal of the Smartless podcast when it came out almost three years ago. Jason, Will and Sean have fantastic charm and charisma.

It's been about a month since I recorded a podcast. Did you miss me? Did you even realize I was gone or did a sexy algorithm feed you something else to consume? I just got back from a weeklong vacation in the French Polynesia but even before my vacation, I was feeling like I needed a break. Not necessarily a break from podcasting but a break from the golden age of consumerism. Everything is being spoon fed directly to our brain stem. We can watch Youtube videos, shows, new movies all day long but
