Jamal Hodge is a cool person who I am surprised wants to talk to me. This is the first half of a full interview with him where we mostly just shoot the shit but then it gets existential? Provocative? Nobody knows they just know they like what it sounds like. Check him out.

Bronwyn (based in Amsterdam) and Dalton (from Parts Unknown) and Sarah discuss mental health tik tok, grifting, compulsory gender identity questions from your employer, jordan peterson, stimulants and dalton's job in customer service for gender neutral childrens clothing https://www.patreon.com/fomofoundation

Dalton and I were on the phone and then I said fuck it let's record another episode because all private interactions should be cannibalized and distributed as content. We discuss telepathy, Succession, our meltdowns, therapy, and killdozers.

On fomo foundation, Dalton joins Sarah to discuss their breakdowns throughout the year -- oh and the kink castle. https://www.patreon.com/fomofoundation

Thirty minutes from a conversation last summer with Brad. Come to Fish Tank next Tuesday 7/18, 7pm, at Brooklyn Greens (virtual golfing and beer and comedy what could go wrong). For tickets both live and virtual ask Sarah 👣

Joan Glackin (@joanglackin) [Spring Chickens Comedy, Desus & Mero] returns to fomo foundation to review some very *exhilarating* "women's content" with Sarah. We're talking fit-spo, fashion-spo, food-spo, and life-spo. This episode is best consumed as video on Spotify or on Patreon at patreon.com/fomofoundation.

Try this"  ~37:08 "I started my own Christian activewear brand and I..."  ~40:33 "1 Piña Colada + 1 Espresso Martini = 7 glasses of Prosecco"  ~44:04 "Cinnamon roll 420 calories (guilt free on vacation) VS salmon + veggies 420 calories (most days wishing I was on vacation)"  ~47:27 "Tall Girl and Short Girl Coexist in the same outfit despite their weight differences" 

Soap dish maker Cassandra Kellam (@earthling.earthling) and soap maker Christine Tan (@xchristinetan) join fomo foundation to unapologetically push their sick and twisted cleanliness ideologies. Cassandra J. Kellam (Upstate New York based designer and sculptor) has worked in concrete over the past five years. Originally a ceramicist, Cassandra shifted to concrete during the six years she lived in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. The architecture, and historic use of the material offered fresh perspective on her personal practice, and fresh ways to learn more about and apply mold making processes.  Cassandra’s recent shift to concrete has offered opportunities to reuse materials like broken pots, bisque wear or old projects and source natural materials to great textural variations and have a more sustainable studio practice. Christine Tan is a freelancer content creator and a soap maker who is passionate about life. She loves design – from architecture, fine arts to packaging. She believes that aesthetics and environmental sustainability can go hand-in-hand; you don’t have to compromise nature to enjoy good design. During her free time, she enjoys traveling, reading and listens to one too many true crime podcasts. [from yacht21.com]

John Swan is a delight. He is bursting at the seams if you know what I mean. Full of life. Simultaneously a calming and energizing force. I don't fully understand the music scene he runs in but hey guess what he was finished in the top 5 at the DMC World DJ Championship finals in 2018. I believe he also teaches NYC children how to DJ which is *very* chicken soup for the jaded adult soul. I hope u enjoy his vibes! Check him on IG at @johnswanjovi.

Very Slacker Parks and Rec meets Adult Wet Hot American Summer vibes. This is a full episode that is free for all the people because my business model is ...... chaos. I hope u lyk.

Part 2 of a 3 episode release of my interview with Ed Malone (@clownguru) whom the NYTimes has called a "deft physical comedian". He's perhaps best known as a "clown guru" (or, in my understanding of that phrase -- a teacher of clowning). Students of Ed's clown class have appeared on Saturday Night Live and a variety of shows on NBC, CBS, HBO, FX, Comedy Central, Adult Swim, MTV, RT as well as major comedy venues throughout New York, including Carolines on Broadway, Gotham Comedy Club and the New York Comedy Club. Ed also teaches Clown at Suny Purchase College.
