Risk It For The Biscuit
Hello! Let’s talk about food, weed, restaurants, and life in big city. Lots of shout outs and information on the way I do things. I share a few “pro tips” according to me. Hah! If you didn’t already know it’s soup season too. This one is full of recipes, reviews, and rambling. Thanks for tuning in.
-
I'm Still Here
It’s been a while since the last episode, but here I am again. Tune in and listen to me complain about all of the things. It turns out I’m old. Not sure if this is just a bunch of complaining or observations. Doesn’t really matter, I hope you guys enjoy it anyway. Anyway, listen and let me know...
-
Find Your Balance
Hey, how you doin? I’m doin just fine. Join me for another fun filled episode as I complain about how things used to be. Honestly, I said so much that I can’t even remember it all. That’s OK, I’m sure parts of it will make sense. If not, that’s a risk I’m willing to take. Anyway I hope you enjoy...
-
Not Much To Say
In this episode, I had nothing to talk about as usual. Somehow, an hour later I completed this whole podcast. Hopefully you enjoy some of the content or things that I discuss. Stick around for the end when I listen to a popular song and finally figure out what it’s actually is about.
-
Life Of A Worker Bee
Another episode of complete randomness. What starts as a story about the hamster wheel of life somehow turns into a trip through some of my employment history. I could tell a lot more stories but I stick to the standouts. This episode felt therapeutic for me. Come along for the ride, enjoy the...
-
It's Hard To Be Hard
It took me a little while to land the plane on this episode, but sometimes the best stories take the scenic route. Journey with me through Marine Corps boot camp, crazy life events, and some moments that make you realize how one seemingly small decision can completely change the course of your...
-
Life Lessons & Stuff
In this episode, I really had nothing to talk about. Somehow I ended up storytelling for an hour. Mostly, it’s my take on humans and commentary about life. I hope some of it makes sense and you enjoy the content. Even though I’m a little all over the place, I think that’s what you’re used to at...
-
I Joined A Club!
That's right, I joined a new club. On the last episode I spoke to you all about a chance encounter at my local pool. That lead me to the BJ's Brewhouse beer club. Last weekend I signed up and boy am I glad I did. There are other topics of conversation, but I feel like that dominated this episode....
-
Phone A Friend
In this episode, I discuss all kinds of randomness. There was actually a few interruptions that I’m not sure you’ll even be able to notice. Not the full hour like normal but damn close. I hope you guys enjoy the program, we’ll talk again next week.
-
Happy 70th Grace!
On this episode I talk about forgetting shit while simultaneously forgetting to talk about shit. I totally skipped my podcast editing disaster from the last show. Stay tuned for more on that next time. I mostly talk about a fictitious lady having her birthday party and summer vibes. This episode...
-
I Did It! File Merge Master
Hah! I'm laughing at myself. I clicked the wrong button and messed up the recording. Instead of deleting everything I kept going. I did a quick search and found a free easy to use file merging service. I'm operating with a simple Chromebook. Anyway, enjoy the randomness. Also, I didn't
-
The Title Doesn't Matter
Sup? Not much here. I finally convinced myself to get back into the guest room. Not even sure why I didn't drop a new episode last week. I guess it was laziness and lack of material. Either way, here I am again. In this episode I share a few retail experiences and it just goes on from there. To…

A New Episode
After a week off for no particular reason, I am back in the studio. Okay, it's not a studio. You know what I mean. Anyway, yes! I came in for this one with nothing to say. Somehow a recent appliance purchase and seeing my Amazon cart had me feeling some type of way. As per usual, I hope you enjoy...
-
We Got This
The royal we is tested as I lose my train of thought and can't wait to listen back. What a tool. Does anyone say that anymore? I used to say that a lot. Anyway, this is an episode of random thoughts about social media, politics, and friends. Not really but kind of. Check it out and decide for...
-
New Music & More
Hey there, how's things? Cool. Cool. Cool. Anyway, I was listening to the last episode and felt some kind of way about it. I decided to play some new songs from the YouTube video library. Tune in as I play a variety of new and old bands. That was the majority of this episode and I was running on...
-
The Ultimate Jacket!
Another all over the place episode! I was sitting on the couch and decided to get off my ass. I started by screwing up and it was all downhill from there. I don't remember exactly what was said, but it was a lot. Next thing you know it's been an hour and ten minutes. I laughed a bit so there must...
-
Laser Beams
Hey. It's me, Steve. I blame this one on Bush. Once you listen to the episode, that will mean a lot more. Join me as an innocent recap of music, takes a quick turn to a porn video booth. I round the show out with stories from my experimental drug use. Just another random journey through my life,...
-
Mostly A Vegas Recap
Like the title says, this episode is mostly a Vegas Recap. I review my trip and share all the details about how everything went. Everything from John Mayer to extra credits. Anyway, I'll keep this short and sweet. Enjoy the harvest.
-
Evolution of Steven
Hey there. How's it going? I'm good. Just getting ready for my solo road trip. This episode explores my excited energy about that. I didn't plan on rambling about Las Vegas for 30 mins, but here we are. Eventually I attempt to steer the train towards another topic, but even I end up talking about...
-
Mirrors & Whatnot
Sup? I'm chillin. Really just counting down the days for my Vegas solo adventure. I start with that excitement and offer insight to my strategies. Also, strategies don't work, you never know! I also share some of my struggles. There’s a never ending pool cleaning, auto detailing, and Steven 5.0,...
-
It's So Long
High. I know, I skipped a week. I'm in my lazy phase and that's gonna change. You have to listen to the full episode to appreciate that statement. I started talking and couldn't stop. What started as a short review of the phases in life turned into a whole thing. I could have kept going. I hope…
more -
It's Bean A While
Hey there, how are things? Me too. Same old same old. I kept saying I have nothing to talk about. Then, the usual happens. Random thoughts, lost brain train, it was fun. I talk a lot about beans, trust, and music. I hope you enjoy some of it, or all of it. Also, don't ask me for money :)
-
Church Beers
Another episode with not a whole lot to say. Then, after almost an hour of rambling, I had done it again. I don't honestly remember all of what I said, but I do remember admitting to a few crimes. There's also a new scam I share with everyone. I guess you’ll have to listen to see if it's your…

Emotional Roller Coaster
Take a trip down memory lane with me as I go through my past. My mom dropped off a bunch of pictures at my house today. In this episode I go through those photos and share stories about all of them. Sharing memories about my entire life was therapeutic and emotional for me. I hope you enjoy my...
-
Birthday Arrest & More
High. How have you been? I've been good, chillin, just livin life. This is sort of a throwback episode where I probably repeat a lot of stories and mix in a few new ones. It goes from Playboys under the sink to old jobs and how I ended up where I am. I appreciate you if you read any of this or…
more -
Self Induced Stress
Yeah, I know. Check out the show as I talk about having nothing to talk about. I keep psyching myself out for no reason. It's like pretending to have writers block but I actually never STFU. Oh well, it's out for judgement now. Hopefully it makes sense to some. Life's a garden, dig it.
-
Super Saver Steven
Hey there, it's me again. Chillin after a great weekend of NFL and my Fantasy League punishment. I started the show with a recap of the past weekend. From there I think I started bitching about how everything is so expensive. After that it was an avalanche of commentary about whatever including…
more -
History of Beers
I did it! I got my ass back in the chair and recorded for Monday. No guarantees that it's any good, but I got the job done. There is a beer tour from my youth along with a smoking recap. I admit this was a bit of a mailed in show because of the playoffs. New year, same Steven. Enjoy the vibes.
-
This One Got Away From Me
Hey, sometimes it happens. You get wrapped up in a thing and get a little lost. That's what happened to me on this one anyway. Don't get me wrong. There's some decent stuff in this episode, but the end goes a little wonky. I hope you enjoy it anyway, welcome to 2026 everyone. We're gonna kill it...
-
Spoon Man
Hey there, how you doin? I'm good, just chillin. Cool. Great talk. Enjoy the show.
-
Hello Stranger
I totally forced myself to get off the couch and drop a new banger. As usual I didn't have much to say. Then, I started talking. There's a lot to unpack in this one, I share my perspective and newfound clarity about stress and life. I'm sure that plenty of conversations will be had about my stop…
more -
Are You A Believer?
Sup? It's me again. This is technically the Thanksgiving episode, but I didn't really focus on that very much. Instead, I gave procrastinators a pass and made it okay provide a "thought" as a gift. Learn about the 10 year $20 and how we can settle up forever. I share a few stories from the news…
more -
Cinnamon & Sugar Struggles
Hello. How are things going? Me too, mostly the same. In what started as me talking about where I was born, I quickly derailed myself and off I went. As per usual I am not totally sure what I talked about. I recall discussing my current state of introspection and how I got "here," wherever that…
more -
Love Thy Self & Other Stuff
Hey, it's me again. I took a break because I'm lazy and lame and did a bunch of stuff. I finally had a free night, so I sat down in the guest room. There was no plan, you already know the deal. There are too many topics to even list. I started with Halloween and left out a ton of stuff. Seems I…
more -
What's Your Holiday?
You know how I sit down from time to time and words just travel all over the place? Yeah, that. This one is about cleaning out old junk and many other random things. Not much more to say, I hope you like it.
-
Showers & Midlife
Sup? Same old same old over here. Just another random word salad from a failed drama club star. That sentence will make more sense after you listen to this episode. I cover lots of important life challenges and provide some input on a proper shower routine. This is one of those episodes where one...
-
Still Buyin Stuff
After a long ass drive I am back home from the wedding weekend. The story begins there and ends up with me asking for help. Arbor is back with some random ideas and questionable answers. Take a ride with me on my soap box as I complain about all that I have while continually adding to the empire.…
more -
I've Got Sol!
In this episode I have a co-host! Welcome Sol to the show, my new AI co-host. I ask a bunch of questions and allow the ChatGPT AI do its thing. I ended up deep in a rabbit hole and learned a few things. That's what most of this show is about. The short cut to mastering AI quickly. There are a few...
-
Lazy Title
I finally had a free moment to get back in the guest room and throw down a new episode. This one is mostly a vacation recap, but there are a few other stories in there. Sometimes I feel like I really should write things down. You know like day to day life observations. Maybe next Monday. Enjoy…
more -
Trip On This
Hi. How have you been? Me too. Same old, same old. I finally sat down to ramble about many things. This is my gift to you, a middle age dude complaining about bad customer service and "kids these days." I have a few show recommendations and some decent diet advise that I won't take. Somehow I end...
-
I Hope They Both Lose
You ever just start talking and end up rambling for over an hour and a half? I have. Many stories were told and some decent advice was shared. I rambled for so long that I cannot properly recount everything I said. There's a 3 day Ultra binge weekend recap, a Costco VS Sam's Club analysis, and me...
-
On The Real
Hey there. I'm back. Skipped a week again from being busy and lazy. Mostly lazy. It doesn't mean I don't love you. This was an easy one that flowed well. Just a bunch of BS as per usual, but there are a few gems in there. I hope you dig it.
-
Lock The Door
This one is longer than most - "that's what she said!." In what started out as an episode with not much to talk about, I end up sharing lots of random stories. I lost my train of thought several times but eventually landed the plane. There were a few random thoughts moments and the Costco ad is…
more -
Hello Again
Back from a casino filled 3 days that kept me out of the studio. Seriously, that's what happened. Along with some TV shows and lost legends in between. Travel with me through thoughts and memories of years gone by.
-
I Always Feel Like
Hey everybody! Ya'll wanna write a song? Well, even if you don't we kind of did. I talked a lot on this episode about a very special someone but it has to be a one and done. I hope you find something you laugh at or like in there, it was a low key non-prep episode. Enjoy it. Boom.
-
Save Our Steven
Another late random show from the guest room. You'll hear all about it if you listen. Sometimes, I wonder why I type out these episode descriptions and I'm like, "you kind of have to bro." It doesn't even have to be an actual description of the acronym adventure I end up on. It certainly never…
more -
Cool Story Bro
Yo. It's me, I'm still here. Been busy killing the game. That's not totally true, but I have been on quite a run. Listen to this show to hear all about that. I do the usual rant on that as we travel to the casino. After that long ass story, I take everyone on a trip to Thailand. The stories begin...
-
Miserable Man
After making the announcement about committing to new episodes every Monday, I've been a complete failure. The blame lands squarely on the shoulders of the Michelob Ultra CEO. I will do better. Anyway, this episode is a little all over the place. I play some new stuff from YouTube and share a...
-
The Perfect Weekend
Back with a full blown festival review and a whole lot more. I play a classic song from my childhood and remind people that I can be an asshole. There is a casino trip recap and love for Long Beach wrapped in there too. Along with a reminder to chill with people that have similar likes. Life in…
more -
Life's A Vibe
I tried something different with the intro song for this episode. I think I put a prompt for trance/house. After that I pulled another ticket for the giveaway since the winner never came forward. On this episode I kept the lunch talk to a minimum and played a quick hit from a Bay Area legend.…
