Among other things, Marisa Hunter is a certified Erotic Blueprint coach and educator. She sat with us to talk about sex and pleasure, and offered some words of encouragement for each of us to relentlessly pursue our own pleasure.

You might think that by “Life”, I mean, like, “Biogenesis.” But no. Mike Garcia is the singer of a hot new band out of Long Island called “The Rook”. Check them out! @therookband … He is also a huge nerd and a lawyer and an accountant and a mythology aficionado, but we somehow managed not to get to any of that in our 90 minutes. We catch up about being dads, the PR-NY connection, and honestly we reminisce alot about the music scene on Long Island from ‘93-‘03. Opening songs “Why Can’t We Have More” and “Haunt This Town” by The Rook. Check them out! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: Th ..read more

Josh has been a good friend for nearly 3 decades. He teaches Writing and Literature in Denver (but he's a NYer). We talk about a variety of topics, but focus on Games (and Gaming) and the human mind (including how we learn, why we like the things we do, mental health, etc).   Some background: I've given Josh (and others) crap about D&D for many years, and here we really get into an analysis of why some people like it and others don't. Also get into video games, having kids, etc. Life, bro.  Josh is what I would call a “Bibliophile” or “Literati”, and he uses a lot of big wor ..read more
