Episode 029 - 2022-2023 Recap: What I've been up to this last (almost) year. Lots of rambling and self-interrupted stories (and anecdotes) in this one. From jiu jitsu to starting my lifting journey, my outdoor activities, to me complaining about the changing of the seasons, it's all here, folks! Just kidding, but we do get a tad introspective at times while reflecting - just the nature of the beast, I guess. I talk recent comings and goings, and I spoil some future plans for upcoming episodes. Episode 030 - sTs 013 (Not a Friday the 13th Memorial Special??) or "Failure" coming soon. The council will take this request into congress, and come back with a decision. (aka I'll pick one, then do the other one after that) I forgot to mention this is a musical cultural anthropology class being offered to you at no cost (donations to the university help), and is worth 1 elective credit towards any major/minor program of your choosing. Not redeemable for any monetary exchange. All exams are open book, note, and internet. All classes are pass only. This is going to be on the test. Don't worry, cause it's in your notes, too (and my shownotes). No video (Spotify) this time because (Formerly Anchor) no longer lets me upload MKVs, and I don't want to record in mp4, so until that changes, check out youtube for the video of me moving the picture around a few times before nothing else happens Intro: @00:07 Fukkit, Dutchman - Flash Bang Outro: @59:14 George Strait - Where the Sidewalk Ends ("Pure Country" Soundtrack) GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS If you can't be safe, then just be careful I LOVE YOU ALL. TODAY IS A BEAUTIFUL FUCKING DAY TO BE ALIVE. ANYWAYS: Check out my website: https://stsbedcast.com

In our second non-Halloween special, I run through all of the scary/horror movies I've watched this year along with some Halloween plans/ideas, and I dive into a bit of the reasonings for  my ratings (good or bad) for each film. I also highly recommend checking out The Vast of Night on Amazon Prime, because it's seriously one of the best movies I've seen in years.  Intro: @00:47 Atlanta Rhythm Section - Spooky Outro: @32:51 Santana - Soul Sacrifice - Live at Woodstock 1969mm GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS   If you can't be safe, then just be careful   I LOVE YOU ALL.   TODAY IS A BEAUTIFUL FUCKING DAY TO BE ALIVE.

In this one, I talk about creating, and the power of self-confidence. We create this through our  foundation of positive mental attitudes/energy, and just good vibes. I explain the meaning (to me) of my favorite personal mantra, and things get me a little energized at the end. It's a good one.  We can work on building our confidence by showing up for ourselves day by day, and when we can't,  then we have a bank of experimental data from our past where we DID, and we can draw inspiration from this to keep on keepin' on. This is a good one.    Intro: @01:25 Yung Gravy - Betty (Get Money)   Outro: @31:48 Sonny Cleveland - Bring it on Back    GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT     SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE     SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS     If you can't be safe, then just be careful     I LOVE YOU ALL.     TODAY IS A BEAUTIFUL FUCKING DAY TO BE ALIVE.   ANYWAYS:     Check out my website:      https://stsbedcast.com     Email me: [email protected]     Follow me on twitter/instagrum:      @sumbedcast

In this one, I give some updates on how my last jiu jitsu competition went, training for the next one, how lifting is going, what IT projects I'm working on at home/in my free time (also certs), and  just check in. Next episode is going to be a themed episode, but I'm not sure what about yet.  Enjoy! Intro: @02:01 Funeral Fires - Party Puke Outro: @29:24 Girl Talk - Play Your Part (Pt. 1) GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS   If you can't be safe, then just be careful   I LOVE YOU ALL.   ANYWAYS:   Check out my website:    https://stsbedcast.com   Email me: [email protected]   Follow me on twitter/instagrum:    @sumbedcast

This is a catchup episode, and I try to wrap up (sort of) the last some months, but I mainly talk about stoicism, some books I'm reading about it by Ryan Holiday, then gave a jiu jitsu update/recap, and kind of a short-term timeline. Thanks for sticking around for this one. More to come soon.    Intro: @00:40 The Band - The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down  Outro: @33:55 Bob Seger - Turn the Page (Live in Detroit '75)   GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS   If you can't be safe, then just be careful   I LOVE YOU ALL.   ANYWAYS:   Check out my website:    https://stsbedcast.com   Email me: [email protected]   Follow me on twitter/instagrum:    @sumbedcast

JUST FOUND OUT EPISODE 21 sTS 07 WAS BLOCKED (ON YOUTUBE) BECAUSE OF BOB DYLAN AUDIO, OOPS.    This is our second annual Not a Halloween Special, even though it's still a few weeks away. I start off by attempting to read "The Raven" by Edgar Allen Poe, but my furry co-host wasn't having it. Then I talk a bit about Halloween and scary movies in general. Next episode coming soon.    Intro: @01:49 : Warren Zevon - Werewolves of London  Outro: @35:21 : Warren Zevon - I'll Sleep When I'm Dead   GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS   If you can't be safe, then just be careful   I LOVE YOU ALL.   ANYWAYS:   Check out my website:    https://stsbedcast.com   Email me: [email protected]   Follow me on twitter/instagrum:    @sumbedcast

This one's about one of, in my opinion, our most important skills in not only becoming fuller and better people, but also expanding our perspectives, and developing more fulfilling lives: learning. I get a bit off track at times, but eventually get back on the wagon in the end.    Intro: @00:14 : ELO - The Diary of Horace Wimp  Outro: @36:20 : CSNY - Almost Cut My Hair   GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS     If you can't be safe, then just be careful     I LOVE YOU ALL.     ANYWAYS:     Check out my website:      https://stsbedcast.com     Email me:    [email protected]     Follow me on twitter/instagrum:      @sumbedcast

This one I talk a little bit about the unfortunate events that happened in Afghanistan, language learning, BUYING A HOUSE, and a few other things. Even though I literally just finished this, my mind is a wash right now, and I can't remember what all else I covered. Please listen, if you wanna know the rest. For the last several episodes, I've been coming back after the outro song plays to give my sendoffs, so the timestamps are really just for when the music starts; not necessarily when the episode is starting/over.  Intro @00:03 : Rob Base & DJ EZ Rock - It Takes Two Outro @37:15 : Santana ft. Chad Kroger - Into the Night GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS   If you can't be safe, then just be careful I LOVE YOU ALL.

This one I go over what it means to go through change in your life (both positive and negative), relate some life lessons I've learned through Jiu Jitsu, and then go over what it means to adapt to situations that might not be of your choosing.    Intro @1:09 : Black Sabbath - Changes   Outro @36:40 : Portishead - Glory Box   GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS   I LOVE YOU ALL.   ANYWAYS:   Check out my website:   https://stsbedcast.com  Email me: [email protected]   Follow me on twitter/instagrum:    @sumbedcast

This episode is all about anxiety. Kind of a short one, because I really just wasn't sure what to say about anxiety since it's so hard to describe to others if they've never felt it. Hopefully I did a good enough job at getting the point across, but if not, Google is your friend (or feel free to reach out).    That being said,    GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT     SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENCE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE    SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS     I LOVE YOU ALL    *Sorry for the minute or so of silence before the outro song.

HI :D  This one's kind of a short one, so apologies if you were looking for a longer episode. Not that I couldn't talk about this more, because I'm sure I can, but this just felt like the right length for now. Part 2 can come at a later date if anything more needs to be said about it, but for now, I'm okay with it.    This one's all about seeing the world, and people, specifically, through different perspectives, and trying not take everything at first glance. Just like we don't (can't, thanks to publishers) judge books by our first impression of their covers, we shouldn't judge people unless we look at their experiences that have brought them this far on their journey, and it wouldn't hurt to look at the world through their eyes.    GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT    SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS    I LOVE YOU ALL    Intro: @00:00 Mid-break song: Darth, the Pissed - "Mechanic Dystopia" @16:50   Outro: Rare Earth - "I just Want to Celebrate" @33:22  https://www.darththepissed.bandcamp.com  ANYWAYS   FOLLOW ME HERE:    Twitter: @sumBedcast  Instagram: sumbedcast   Email: [email protected] or [email protected]

HI ALL :D   Sorry for the delay. I guess this isn't the longest break between episodes (see the beginnings of this show), but it feels like it's been forever since I released anything. Times have been, trying, at best, and just downright awful at worst, but despite these uncertain times, it's imperative we all stay positive, spread that positivity, and help make the world, and our experiences in it better for all of those around us. Even though Thanksgiving (for US audience; sorry, everyone else) just came to pass, it's important to stay thankful year long, especially in the coming holiday/no daylight season. Be kind to those around you, and help bring light to the world in a period of uncertainty.    Episode 10 coming soon? (Trying to decide on topic, but it'll probably come to be 2 minutes before recording)   GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT    SPREAD YOUR EXCELLENE, AND BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE   SHINE ON YOU CRAZY DIAMONDS    I LOVE YOU ALL    Intro: 00:00   Outro: Pink Floyd - Shine on You Crazy Diamond @33:22 (Dedicated to everyone listening, and everyone struggling out there. Know you're not alone)   SORRY FOR THE TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES DURING OUTRO, SPOTIFY WAS UNAVAILABLE, AND A MIDROLL AD POPPED UP ON THE YOUTUBE VIDEO

YA LIKE DOING GOOD? Well, SOMETIMES ME TOO. EVEN IF YOU DON'T, DONT BE A SHIT. Basically all this episode's about. I also talk about not letting the past weigh on you, and regret in general.   Outro @32:52 : Darth, the Pissed - "The Perfect Monster"   Bandcamp: https://darththepissed.bandcamp.com/r...  ANYWAYS  GO FORTH, AND BE EXCELLENT   FOLLOW ME HERE:    Twitter: @sumBedcast  Instagram: sumbedcast  Email: [email protected]

FIFTH episode of the Bedcast here. sTs 02 (sum/Thin/sumthin) where I talk about Designated Survivor (ABC/Netflix), my recent audiobook adventures (exhilarating, right?), and other topics.

Welcome to the forth episode of the Bedcast. This episode is the first sum/Thin/sumthin (sTs) installment where I ramble about Burn Notice, Professional WRASTLING, and a few other unrelated subjects for a while before I decided to go watch more Burn Notice. Episodes not about a specific topic will be uploaded as sTs', and will be a bit more loose in theme than topic-specified episodes (or at least that's how I'm currently aiming).    ANYWAYS  FOLLOW ME HERE:    Twitter: @sumBedcast  Instagram: sumbedcast   Email: [email protected]

Welcome to the third (second available) episode of the Bedcast. In this episodes, I talk about self-doubt, trying to get past it, so it doesn't block you from achieving your dreams, and try to open a dialogue about mental health and emotions in general. Intro song: "Poncho and Lefty" by Townes Van Zandt from the "Heartworn Highways" documentary   Outro: "You Don't Mess Around with Jim" by the late Jim Croce    Follow me:    Twitter: @sumBedcast Instagram: sumbedcast   Email: [email protected]

Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Bedcast, brought to you with a little extra sumthin/sumthin. In this episode, I talk a bit about finding your purpose, what to do if that isn't immediately clear, and just striving to be a better, more whole person. Please never take anything I say as law, because I'm only qualified to lend a helpful ear; nothing more, but maybe less.  Wonderful intro/outro music by Alomar:    Twitter: @Alomarmusic Facebook: Alomarmusic   Download his latest release, "Soul Case" from Small Mammal Records https://smallmammal.bandcamp.com/album/soul-case He's also got merch available at:  Https://alomar.bigcartel.com °°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°°° Follow me:    Twitter: @sumBedcast Instagram: sumbedcast Email: [email protected]
