WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.919 What's happening? My friend? It's johnny motions and this is emo do Joe. 2 00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:14.160 Well, Holy Hell, man, I can't leave here for a month 3 00:00:14.199 --> 00:00:18.359 and then world war three breaks out. I guess I can't take a break 4 00:00:18.440 --> 00:00:22.559 anywhere. Man, it's been busy. I know I was going to take 5 00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:24.760 a break. I told you I was going to take a break in November. 6 00:00:24.839 --> 00:00:29.399 I never did. So I needed to take a break in February and 7 00:00:29.760 --> 00:00:32.920 yeah, feel a little better. I get stressed out around the holidays. 8 00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:35.840 I see people, I see old friends and family and I think I'm not 9 00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:40.119 doing well enough in life. So I get back in my little routine come 10 00:00:40.200 --> 00:00:43.640 January and think I should be doing better. So I start looking for jobs 11 00:00:43.640 --> 00:00:45.759 and things like that. I think I've told you my jobs just kind of 12 00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:49.320 whack because the thing we sell, I'm in sales, and the thing we 13 00:00:49.359 --> 00:00:52.560 sail, the price just keeps plummeting. So if you work on a commission 14 00:00:52.560 --> 00:00:56.359 in the thing that you sell keeps plumating, you don't make very much money 15 00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.880 at all and that sucks. And I'd been telling friends and family about this 16 00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:02.880 for a while and they're like, Oh yeah, no, stick it out. 17 00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:06.680 You know you always jump from thing to thing, too fast, too 18 00:01:06.719 --> 00:01:11.159 soon. Well, I heard from my supervisor the other day. He feels 19 00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:15.599 exactly the same way I do and he's about ready to leave. And apparently 20 00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:19.200 so we're like three other people in the office, but since I work in 21 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:22.239 sales, I'm not in the office and I don't typically talk a lot of 22 00:01:22.280 --> 00:01:26.560 Shit at work. So yeah, apparently they all talk shit about the bosses 23 00:01:26.000 --> 00:01:30.159 all the time and I just wasn't wasn't around to hear it. So I 24 00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:33.719 thought I was the only one felt like things weren't going so well at work. 25 00:01:34.359 --> 00:01:37.120 So in that aspect, I guess I feel a little better now that 26 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:41.000 I have others who feel the same way about work, but that doesn't make 27 00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.799 work any better, it just makes the situation a little more comfortable because I'm 28 00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.719 not alone. So I have to find something to do that makes more money 29 00:01:47.799 --> 00:01:51.519 or stay focused on my hobbies here. So let's update on what we've been 30 00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:56.040 doing. All the NFT people that we've interviewed. Man, that's a tough 31 00:01:56.120 --> 00:02:00.560 racket. So what really looks like? What happened is remember game stop. 32 00:02:00.959 --> 00:02:04.760 You know, obviously the store and the stunks. I think a lot of 33 00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:08.800 those people from Wall Street bets the reddit thread that the people that missed out 34 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:14.039 or lost a bunch of money on game stock, I'm sorry, Game Stop 35 00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:17.080 Stock. I think those are the same people who then came over to you, 36 00:02:17.280 --> 00:02:23.280 the nft world, and decided that that was the next place to get 37 00:02:23.360 --> 00:02:28.039 rich quick. And not talking about the artist, obviously the artist. Onen't 38 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.639 you hear about it self included. You hear that people are spending a bunch 39 00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:35.800 of money over there on art, quote Unquote Art, you get excited and 40 00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:38.560 you want to go participate. So my heart goes out to the past artist, 41 00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.680 the nft artists I interviewed on the podcast here and I hope they're doing 42 00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:45.759 well. I've reached out to a few of them to see if they wanted 43 00:02:45.800 --> 00:02:49.039 to come back and they said yeah, but they really hadn't committed to coming 44 00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:52.840 back and actually do an episode because, you know, things are tough. 45 00:02:52.919 --> 00:02:54.840 Art didn't sell, didn't sell enough. They weren't able to quit their jobs. 46 00:02:54.840 --> 00:02:59.240 The dream didn't happen. And I could get that because I've been in 47 00:02:59.319 --> 00:03:00.280 rock and roll for a long time, you know, I played music since 48 00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:05.520 I was a little kid. And Yeah, everyone wants to be or at 49 00:03:05.599 --> 00:03:07.919 least back then, everyone wanted to be a rock star. Then people wanted 50 00:03:08.000 --> 00:03:12.840 to be, you know whatever, athletes, pro athletes, and then people 51 00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:16.479 wanted to be youtubers and twitch streamers. Well, the latest things, everyone 52 00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:21.039 wants to be an nft star. Now there's not that much room. There 53 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:23.520 is not. You know, only a few people can be a stars and 54 00:03:23.639 --> 00:03:27.840 make the big money, and everybody else that thinks it's the Oh, all 55 00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:30.439 I have to do is get discovered it. I don't think it's quite that 56 00:03:30.439 --> 00:03:32.639 easy. I think a lot of other influences have to come into play at 57 00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:37.759 exactly the same time. But obviously one of those things is persistent. So 58 00:03:37.840 --> 00:03:40.759 if you're not there the moment the other influence is coming to play, well, 59 00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:46.319 you're fucked. So if you're an artist into NFT's, by all means 60 00:03:46.319 --> 00:03:49.000 you should keep going, because I know I am. I'm just not spending 61 00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:53.240 my life on twitter talking about it. I don't think everything you do has 62 00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:55.759 to be talked about. You can do some things that you just don't talk 63 00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:00.759 about on the Internet, right, like your work, your projects, things 64 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.479 like that. We're anything. What you just bought, what just date? 65 00:04:03.879 --> 00:04:08.319 Who Cares? Oh, but it builds community. Yeah, but so does 66 00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:11.599 doing those things in real life. Yeah, I don't don't need to bag 67 00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:15.759 on social media. I don't think it's bad inherently. I think what people 68 00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:18.920 claim is the is the bad or the results of social media is actually the 69 00:04:18.920 --> 00:04:24.959 results of not doing the other things in life. Like if you still go 70 00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.160 out and have fun, go to picnics or whatever the fuck you do, 71 00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:31.199 go and meet your friends at bars and go Dann seeing and play pickleball, 72 00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:36.120 joined Sports Leagues, go to Church. If you're at church, person like 73 00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:41.160 do those things too. Don't just be on social media. If you're only 74 00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:44.920 on the Internet, only shopping on Amazon and Ebay and then going back over 75 00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.720 to facebook and twitter and instagram and just that's your holy day old daily schedule. 76 00:04:49.680 --> 00:04:55.560 That's that's just nuts. And of course I'm trying not to have my 77 00:04:55.600 --> 00:05:00.959 life as much nuts. So I'm making a conscious effort to do more things 78 00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:04.839 outside and with real people now that covid is kind of diminished, and that 79 00:05:04.879 --> 00:05:09.120 means I'm yeah, I'm just working on things away from the keyboard, frankly. 80 00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:12.120 So, yeah, I mean because I do. I share tons about 81 00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:15.360 my life, obviously on a podcast, but oh my God, like not 82 00:05:15.439 --> 00:05:17.160 nearly as much as the rest of my life. Can you imagine? Like 83 00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:20.279 it just literally like a tip, not literally, but the tip of an 84 00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:25.480 iceberg. What I share on a podcast is just the things I think people 85 00:05:25.560 --> 00:05:30.959 might find interesting and help them think differently about the world and themselves, whereas 86 00:05:30.000 --> 00:05:33.199 the other things I think about, no, I can't talk about things I 87 00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:38.399 think about for real for the rest of my life. Oh my gosh, 88 00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:43.319 let alone. Just you know, daytoday, routine boarding stuff like this is 89 00:05:43.319 --> 00:05:46.319 boring enough. Is just Monday and I'm just talking about talking about stuff. 90 00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:50.639 I feel like sometimes, but I can talk. So to get back to 91 00:05:50.680 --> 00:05:55.040 it, let me. Let's recap about what we've been up to. So 92 00:05:55.120 --> 00:05:59.360 we had the NFT artist. That's fun. I like encouraging people to do 93 00:05:59.519 --> 00:06:04.160 art. It's a great outlet have hobbies. But one of my longstanding kind 94 00:06:04.199 --> 00:06:09.839 of philosophies is that you don't have to turn your hobby into fucking money. 95 00:06:09.959 --> 00:06:13.480 Just relax and have fun. Hobbies cost money. Spent a little money and 96 00:06:13.519 --> 00:06:17.560 have a hobby. If it's NFT's cool, if it's designing and FD's cool. 97 00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:21.240 Design them and try to sell them, but you know that's the hobby 98 00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:25.519 you don't. Don't get upset if you don't make money, because making money 99 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:29.360 should not be the goal of a fun hobby. Same goes for podcasting. 100 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:31.319 Man, there's so many podcast to tell you how to podcast. It's pretty 101 00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:34.839 easy to figure out how to podcast. It's a lot harder to figure out 102 00:06:34.839 --> 00:06:39.519 what to talk about or even how to talk, but with practice you'll get 103 00:06:39.560 --> 00:06:43.680 good at all of those things. Making money at a podcasts know why. 104 00:06:43.720 --> 00:06:46.680 I mean. Don't start a podcast just to make money. That's like starting 105 00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:50.519 a band just to make money or creating an nft just to make money. 106 00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:56.199 There needs to be effort in your art, in your creation, otherwise they 107 00:06:56.279 --> 00:07:00.360 just won't be value and it they'll be monetary value sometimes. But is that 108 00:07:00.399 --> 00:07:02.759 all? You just worried about money? I mean that that's a whole different 109 00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:06.439 conversation. If you just worried about money in life, this is not the 110 00:07:06.480 --> 00:07:11.959 podcast for you at all, because we talked about hobbies and art and mental 111 00:07:12.000 --> 00:07:15.439 health and things like that. So money is secondary at best. So have 112 00:07:15.560 --> 00:07:20.319 a hobby, have fun. And so the talking thing. Remember, we 113 00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:25.480 talked about I was going to do voiceover. So I not going to do 114 00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:30.600 long form voiceovers for their mention the reasons I had mentioned. Manly sitting in 115 00:07:30.639 --> 00:07:33.360 a closet for too long, or even any kind of space for more than 116 00:07:33.399 --> 00:07:39.800 a fucking hour. Really long form audio books, you are sitting there for 117 00:07:39.839 --> 00:07:43.360 hours until you're done, you know, basically reading a page after page after 118 00:07:43.360 --> 00:07:48.360 page, and it's not for me. Short form commercials and things like that, 119 00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:51.240 so I've been hitting up the local ad agencies and people that do the 120 00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:58.240 hiring for that moving forward. They're awesome. See good on my checklist here. 121 00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:00.279 Whatever I've been talking to, I feel like I talked to you, 122 00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:03.240 like I talked to my friends, but I sometimes forget what I updated each 123 00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:07.000 friend about and I always fear like I'm going to repeat myself and sound like 124 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:13.240 a senile old person. So we had talked about voice acting and starting a 125 00:08:13.319 --> 00:08:18.519 nonprofit revolving around drums. So those things are all still moving forward. They 126 00:08:18.560 --> 00:08:22.639 take time when you're poor, not poor poor, but I mean my job 127 00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:24.040 doesn't pay much more than the bills. It's one of those kind of month 128 00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:28.120 to month situations right now. So when you have to save up for things 129 00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:33.000 like trademarks and stuff like that, it literally takes months. You have to 130 00:08:33.000 --> 00:08:35.960 wait. So the progress is slow going, but you know persistence will pay 131 00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:43.159 off and I'm moving forward on the nonprofit, on the drum thing, of 132 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:45.320 which, again, they don't need to move to a place that I can 133 00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:48.240 actually play a full real set of drums or rent a place or, you 134 00:08:48.240 --> 00:08:52.200 know, have money to rent a place. The idea will not really work 135 00:08:52.279 --> 00:08:56.080 that well with electric drums. I have some of those and maybe I'll just 136 00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:01.480 start playing just to quote unquote, start building a community. But anyway, 137 00:09:01.559 --> 00:09:03.960 yeah, so the voice acting stuff is moving on, moving along, just 138 00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:11.120 slowly but sharedly, and the EMO Dojo, Drum Drum Dojo, I guess 139 00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:15.720 you call it, Drum Studio, that's moving forward, as well as the 140 00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:18.759 nonprofit, because that it's going to be a nonprofit. And then I heard 141 00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:22.720 something so pertaining to this show. I keep wondering what I should do with 142 00:09:22.759 --> 00:09:26.360 this, because I don't like to keep sharing more and more about myself. 143 00:09:26.399 --> 00:09:28.159 Sometimes I just want privacy. And then what am I going to not have 144 00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.679 a podcast for three months because I don't feel like I don't have anything that 145 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.960 I want to share? That would be dumb. But I noticed since I 146 00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:41.600 started this podcast years ago, two thousand sixteen, because I couldn't find any 147 00:09:41.600 --> 00:09:46.600 cool podcast about mental health. Well, now there are a whole bunch. 148 00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:48.039 There's a whole bunch of people doing the same kind of thing. I'm sure 149 00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:50.679 of it. I don't listen to him because, well, I don't listen 150 00:09:50.720 --> 00:09:56.440 to my own podcast either. I listened to different podcast. Anyway, there's 151 00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:01.559 tons of other mental health podcast and I think m like I said, there's 152 00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:05.039 also podcast to tell you about podcasting. While I was listening to this dude, 153 00:10:05.120 --> 00:10:11.279 Tanner Tanner Campbell, he has a good podcast called podcasting sucks, and 154 00:10:11.320 --> 00:10:13.360 they brought up a really good point, like and I don't know, they 155 00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:18.080 don't specifically Keya and on it, but I sure did. When you listen 156 00:10:18.120 --> 00:10:22.360 to a podcast, do you like listening to a single person podcast or multiple 157 00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:26.799 people, and meaning, do you like to hear one person, just like 158 00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:31.919 me, just talk? That's odd to me, or would you prefer to 159 00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:35.919 hear two people are more having a conversation, like you're a fly on the 160 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:39.320 wall, because those are the kind I like to listen to. Now, 161 00:10:39.320 --> 00:10:43.759 when I look at my download statistics for this particular show, the ones where 162 00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:46.799 I talk by myself get more downloads. I find that really weird. I 163 00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:50.240 think you're weird for listening to a person like me to talk by myself, 164 00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:54.080 but I love you for it. You know I love you for it. 165 00:10:54.279 --> 00:10:58.440 And so anyway, I just if you have the gumption to let me know 166 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:03.799 some way and social media, send me an email. John at Emo Dojocom 167 00:11:05.440 --> 00:11:07.720 and let me know. Do you like single person shows or two person shows? 168 00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:11.159 And the reason I ask is because I think I would like to turn 169 00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.200 Emo Dojo into a two person show for the next season, in that each 170 00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:22.200 show I interview another mental health podcaster. So I think that would help in 171 00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:26.679 many ways. For one, I could help promote them, so you would 172 00:11:26.720 --> 00:11:33.679 have more interesting things to listen to and different perspectives to hear. It would 173 00:11:33.720 --> 00:11:37.399 provide a steady flow of guests because there's, like I said, there's tons 174 00:11:37.399 --> 00:11:43.039 of mental health podcast now. Oh and they're also podcasters, so the chances 175 00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:48.360 are really high that they have good Mike, good Internet connection and the show 176 00:11:48.399 --> 00:11:52.919 will sound, you know, audibly pleasant. So for those three reasons alone, 177 00:11:52.919 --> 00:11:56.399 I think that's what I'm going to attempt, unless I get any pushback, 178 00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:58.879 but we'll see. Maybe it's because when I'm alone and I have single, 179 00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:03.879 single person episodes, I'm talking about mental health. So maybe that's why 180 00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:05.600 you guys like those episodes, Barn, because I admit a lot of times 181 00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:11.519 I'll talk to anybody who will come on the show and many times those guests 182 00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:15.960 aren't talking about mental health. They're just talking about whatever they do. And 183 00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:18.519 I can see if you tuned into a mental health podcast and they're just talking 184 00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.600 about, you know whatever. No offense to any guests, but maybe the 185 00:12:22.840 --> 00:12:26.879 maybe you're listening the mental health podcast for mental health reasons. Wow, go 186 00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:31.679 figure. So anyway, that's where I'll try. If I don't hear any 187 00:12:31.720 --> 00:12:35.399 pushback, I'm going to go with that route. I'll change EMO DOJA for 188 00:12:35.600 --> 00:12:39.200 I guess there's called this season four, season five, and we'll let it 189 00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:45.759 rip with multiple two people shows, me plus a guest, and the guests 190 00:12:45.799 --> 00:12:52.000 will have their own mental health podcast and maybe kind of build a quote unquote 191 00:12:52.080 --> 00:12:58.120 community of Mental Health podcasters that start to recur on each other's shows so that 192 00:12:58.159 --> 00:13:03.360 we can continue to make mental mainstream so people stop saying, Oh, I 193 00:13:03.399 --> 00:13:09.720 have mental health. That's how fucking stigmatize a stigmatize. The word mental is. 194 00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:13.440 If you put it next to the word health, people think you're sick. 195 00:13:13.000 --> 00:13:18.399 Nah, people, you've got mental illness. Mental Health is the thing 196 00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:24.559 you want. So onward we march, making mental mainstream. All Right, 197 00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:31.360 so you've probably heard many podcasts in this stream where I use music without permission, 198 00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:33.480 which is cool. I like it. But at one point I had 199 00:13:33.480 --> 00:13:39.279 an entirely different podcast called signal jams, and it was on anchor and it 200 00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:43.080 was just US talking about music. Well, one day anchor just deleted the 201 00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:48.200 whole fucking show with no recourse. They would respond or anything to emails. 202 00:13:48.320 --> 00:13:50.600 Nothing. So fuck anchor. I was pissed at him for a long time. 203 00:13:52.279 --> 00:13:58.039 But now anchor and spotify. Anchor, the podcasting platform, is owned 204 00:13:58.080 --> 00:14:03.440 by spotify, so they're together there in cahoots their one company. spotify now 205 00:14:03.519 --> 00:14:09.080 lets you do a podcast format called music plus talk. So you get me 206 00:14:09.159 --> 00:14:13.399 talking, for example, talk, talk, doc, and then you get 207 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:15.840 to play a song and you can play as many songs as you want, 208 00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:20.080 so long as they're from the songs in spotify as catalog, and I presume 209 00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:22.960 that the artist gets paid for that play and so forth. So what's really 210 00:14:22.960 --> 00:14:26.600 cool? Now I'm going to start another podcast, like my actual fun hobby, 211 00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:31.840 where this one will be a hobby where I help other people spread the 212 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.840 word about mental health. My True Passion is music. So I'm going to 213 00:14:35.840 --> 00:14:41.679 have a blast. I'm starting a new podcast over on spotify called music talk 214 00:14:41.759 --> 00:14:45.200 now. I was going to call it music talk daily, but that was 215 00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:46.960 a lot of pressure. I'm not sure I can put out a daily episode. 216 00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:50.960 And what is daily? Every fucking day, seven days a week. 217 00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:54.120 That's too much. But I do plan to do multiple episodes per week. 218 00:14:54.360 --> 00:14:58.679 So look for it over on twitter right now. You can just start tracking 219 00:14:58.759 --> 00:15:01.879 us. there. You music talk now. That'll be the show. It'll 220 00:15:01.879 --> 00:15:05.600 be a blast and actually I'm going to host it as me, like as 221 00:15:05.679 --> 00:15:07.879 John Emotions, and if people ask what the fuck is your name all about, 222 00:15:07.879 --> 00:15:13.759 I'm going to remind them about this podcast so that they can know that 223 00:15:13.840 --> 00:15:20.679 emo do joe exists and that we've been trying to make mental mainstream for years. 224 00:15:20.720 --> 00:15:22.679 But that should be a blast. So I'm going to go over there 225 00:15:22.679 --> 00:15:28.759 and do that first kind of pilot episode after I'm done here this. We 226 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:33.440 have different themes for different podcast, for different episodes there on music talk now. 227 00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:37.279 This one is called best show ever, where I'm going to talk about 228 00:15:37.279 --> 00:15:43.559 the best show ever July thirteen, one thousand nine hundred and eighty four at 229 00:15:43.679 --> 00:15:48.480 the stone in San Francisco, so that's going to be cool. I'll be 230 00:15:48.480 --> 00:15:52.000 able to include entire songs from all the bands that played that night and tell 231 00:15:52.039 --> 00:15:56.519 a little stories in between each song. Other topics will be like emotions. 232 00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.960 I'll have one episode that's just sad and I'll expect, you know, play 233 00:16:00.039 --> 00:16:04.200 several songs that make me super sad and maybe another to balance it out that 234 00:16:04.360 --> 00:16:10.759 just songs that make me happy. To that end, guests, yourself included 235 00:16:10.879 --> 00:16:12.480 or welcome, to come on and talk with me about your favorite songs, 236 00:16:12.519 --> 00:16:18.159 your favorite artist and explain, you know, why we put these songs together. 237 00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:22.159 There's a gentleman coming up on the show who has his own Bruce Springsteen 238 00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:26.279 podcast and you know we'll find out. We'll have him pick four or five 239 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:30.559 of his favorite Bruce springsteen songs and explain to us what make those his favorite 240 00:16:30.559 --> 00:16:34.960 Bruce springsteen songs. And even I wants to even cooler, because I don't 241 00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:40.240 know how cool Bruce Bruce Springstein guy is. But one of my favorite aspects 242 00:16:40.240 --> 00:16:45.039 of the show is there's lots of people with bands who I can contact that 243 00:16:45.120 --> 00:16:48.759 have their albums on spotify. So I'm going to talk with Tony and Johnny 244 00:16:48.799 --> 00:16:52.200 my dudes from Sacramento, the band restrained. We're going to have them on 245 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:56.759 an episode of music talk now coming up shortly. That'll be fun to because 246 00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:00.480 I'll actually get to talk to the artist about the songs that they created and 247 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:04.400 listen to their songs in their entirety. I won't get to interrupt them at 248 00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:10.039 all. It's the way spotify plus music plus talks work. Just gotta let 249 00:17:10.039 --> 00:17:12.240 the song play and then you can talk again. So it's all going to 250 00:17:12.240 --> 00:17:17.440 be a blast and I hope you come around and check it out. So 251 00:17:17.680 --> 00:17:19.480 that's all I have for today. Like I've just been laying loan stand out 252 00:17:19.480 --> 00:17:22.519 of trouble, trying not to get too caught up into bad news all around 253 00:17:22.599 --> 00:17:27.440 us, just staying out of the way as they stay all right. recapping 254 00:17:27.680 --> 00:17:32.480 from the top, I wish the NFT artist the best and if you choose 255 00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:37.119 to get into the nft world, just realize it's like the music business, 256 00:17:37.480 --> 00:17:41.359 athletic business, Youtube business. It's all the same thing. It's just really 257 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:44.680 hard to get into and make money. Not a big deal. Don't give 258 00:17:44.759 --> 00:17:47.039 up. Just that's if you're going to do it. That's what you're getting 259 00:17:47.079 --> 00:17:52.279 yourself into. Also moving forward with the nonprofit EMO Dojo, will eventually be 260 00:17:52.279 --> 00:17:57.000 a nonprofit, a nonprofit drum studio. Yes, I love that idea. 261 00:17:57.079 --> 00:18:03.039 In real life, going to be working in local voiceover stuff, TV commercials 262 00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:06.440 and things like that for car dealerships, fun stuff. You won't know it. 263 00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:08.160 I'm not sure I'll be able to get permission to play it for you, 264 00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:12.880 but probably as should be a blast. Stay tuned for that. This 265 00:18:12.960 --> 00:18:18.599 podcasts going to be looking for other mental health podcasters to be guests. So 266 00:18:18.680 --> 00:18:21.000 if you know if any, or you are one, by all means hit 267 00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:23.000 me up. You're totally welcome to come on. We'll have a blast making 268 00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:29.279 mental mainstream and in the next couple of days check on spotify for my new 269 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:37.039 podcast, music talk. Now got it cool? All Right, see that's 270 00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:40.200 talk for like twenty minutes, just talking, talking, but it's still weird 271 00:18:40.279 --> 00:19:00.599 that, hmm, you would listen to somebody talk that long. And now 272 00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:00.440 back to the wall.
