All Episodes - Catchin' a Beat
Catchin’ a Beat Podcast (Formerly The Spokane Word) is a talk show where I, Keith LaBorde, try and dive into my own thoughts, feelings, and emotions, with the intent of taking a rational, logical approach to why and how I have come to my conclusions. I try to navigate the human condition by getting a better understanding of how my own mind works through the art of conversation with myself and others. This podcast is about anything and everything. It’s an attempt to explain myself. Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/catchinabeat/support

41 - Rusty Restarting with Mace
In this clunky episode, after a 8 month break, I get together with Mace and go on a conversational meander getting into the mucky underbelly of the human condition and beyond. We let the conversation and our thoughts take us where they please. I'm getting rusty though. Mace will be starting a Podcast called "The Stoned Ape Social Hour" which I will certainly be listening too. And also thoughts of doing a Podcast with Brittiny where they will talk more specifically
40 - Buying a Truck?
Yes, I'm finally going to do it. Going to buy a truck and be an owner operator. I'll need all the luck!

27 - Shed'n Dreams
I'm doing this episode sitting in my mess of a garage and ramble on about my silent shed that I am building, and that has take over my garage and mind. I'm basically just thinking out loud tonight. Not much substance.
26 - Laundrocast
We're actually folding laundry during this conversation, and I don't remember any pieces of clothing. Conversation is confounding. Just working through some thoughts while doing chores.

25 - Weekly Thoughts

24 - Meandering with Mace
A seamster, philosopher, psychonaut, Mace is a human that can poke at the nature of anything and incite deep thinking. We discuss everything with hubris and deliberation and it made for such a substantive conversation. I hope to have more of these in the future and could certainly see Mace becoming a pretty regular guest. He is also the creator of Flowstate clothing.

23 - Dance Bitch
Can I convince myself to love dancing? I think so, the real question is who's got the drugs? E-mail: keith@catchinabeat.com www.catchinabeat.com YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCElKZ9kfftfmkzTx6bp8CEg/
22 - Short on Exercise
I'm trying to convince myself logically to exercise more. Modernity is dull and depressing, wild busts are the only alternative. E-mail: keith@catchinabeat.com www.catchinabeat.com YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCElKZ9kfftfmkzTx6bp8CEg/
21 - A Short on Vices
With these shorts, I just meditate on a topic, word, issue, or anything really, and try to articulate what I think about it, hopefully with some poetic prose, or some ironic comedy. I try to defend my whiskey drinking and cigar smoking here.
20 - Red or Blue
In this hot piece I try to think through the implications of the future. Website: www.catchinabeat.com Email: keith@catchinabeat.com Youtube: https://youtu.be/NDRygbipTj8
19 - Made to Sway
We have guests! Brittiny, Brianne, and Mace join me in this long conversation about nothing very important at all.
18 - Brittiny tha Wifey
Brittiny, my wife/fiance, joins me in an entirely random conversation about certain topics. We might end up doing more of these. E-mail: keith@catchinabeat.com www.catchinabeat.com YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCElKZ9kfftfmkzTx6bp8CEg/
17 - Misunderstood
I'm doing this show off the cuff. No script today, I thought I would give it a shot. As you could guess, the topics meander quite a bit, but whatever, it's poignant none the less. Show email: keith@catchinabeat.com Youtube: https://anchor.fm/catchinabeat
16 - Burn Flags
I engage with the fascist anti-fascists on twitter, unpersuasively try to justify flag burning, and talk about my idyllic life. Umberto Eco "UR-FASCISM" https://www.pegc.us/archive/Articles/eco_ur-fascism.pdf E-mail: keith@catchinabeat.com www.catchinabeat.com YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCElKZ9kfftfmkzTx6bp8CEg/
15 - Tweet Skeets
In this episode, I backpedal on my Rittenhouse narrative, share my newfound love for twitter, and try to figure out what reality is really. But I don't get very far. If you'd like information on how to join the show contact: Keith@CatchinaBeat.com or go to CatchinaBeat.com to learn more.
14 - Suffering
Am I getting better? Or is it just drivel? I dive into things I know little about like Buddhism and my own past. I also flavor y'all with a little music of my cajun homeland, so enjoy that.
13 - What Structure?
In this episode I give some structure a try, and also a cigar.
12 - Bottom of Thought
Early morning episode for the first time. I talk about my idea of individualism and collectivism and then I find myself considering the idea of collectivism a little more than I thought I would. But I am a goddamn individual.
11 - Naive Reality
In this episode I try to turn a stream of consiousness from ideas throughout the week into some sort of coherent, insightful monologue. But, it's probably just word salad.
10 - Bitches Behind the Skeet
Hittin' double digits with this one. This episode features a conversation between me, my wife Brittiny, and her best friend Brianne. They listened to the episode with Benjamin and had a few things they wanted to talk about.
9 - Skeet Session: Benjamin
In this episode I talk with an ex friend and we try to figure out what happened. Also the name of the podcast will be changed to Catchin' a Beat officially when the new artwork is created....Enjoy!
8 - Money Man
I'm back, and in these crazy times, I'm trying to make some dough. Just taking the garbage out of my mind by explaining what I've been obsessed with lately, the stock market and options trading. Getting rich or gonna die tryin.
7 - Balls Deep
Back in the garage studio. I'm giving my 2 cents on this epidemic, how I'm getting through with capitalizing on financial markets, and all the goings on of late in my little world.
6 - Status Update
Just wanted to let y'all know I'm still around and doing it, just trying to finish other projects up.
5 - Hard in the Space
Finally dropping another like Khalid. This episode is an experiment with written and off the cuff stream of consciousness. No news or random questions in this episode, this is just how I felt like recording. And visit TheSpokaneWord.live
4 - Word Salad
I went a little longer than I thought, despite not having a completed outline. No news, but I had some mind mapping to discover so I talk about everything from houses, job, and fatherhood. I also contemplate being on the run. And visit TheSpokaneWord.live
3 - Sirloin Slammers
I don't think "sirloin slammers" was said once during this podcast but I did have some meat on my mind. Another solo podcast with weird randomness and some structured thoughts from the mind of myself. And visit TheSpokaneWord.live
2 - Spokant Drive
In this solo episode I bring you some Spokane News and my thoughts on them. I also talk about my newsworthy forays when I was younger. Then I end on answering some random internet questions that I hope y'all will enjoy. And visit TheSpokaneWord.live
1 - Introducing The Spokane Word
New podcast called The Spokane Word. A talk show about everything and nothing. Hopefully we will make you laugh and answer your deepest curiosities about life and the trivial things that happen. It isn't specifically about Spokane, but it is a way for me to get to know my new city better, and meet the folk of this hamlet. It will come out Sundays and will be available on all platforms, including YouTube. I'm hoping for a good audience in Spokane and all around the world. Get to know me and my guests a little better and check out my growth as a human animal as this podcast matures. For me this is a tool to help me get to know other people better as well as getting to know myself better. It is a journey of development from someone who loves to learn. Subscribe yo! Or don't.
