  8. Ep 246 | The Art of Storytelling

    With the awards season having come to a close last week with the Oscars, it seems as good a time as any to talk about one of my favorite subjects: movies.

  12. Ep. 242 | Rise of Burress

    On a clear night, when looking up at the stars, it is hard not to be amazed at the vast universe that exists around us, and how small we are comparative to everything around us. Every now and then, it is important to reflect on the sheer magnitude of what goes on beyond our planets atmosphere…
