ARTICULATE with Steve McJones

"It's not about what the equipment does, it's about what you can do through that equipment. That's where the soul is."This week on Articulate, we're joined by local Philadelphia D.J., WUSTA. He walks us through his introduction into the scene, the creativity involved in production, and how the scene's progressed through the years. Never underestimate the Art of the Vibe.Hey guess what?? Articulate is now streamable with video on Youtube- a new visual aid for articulation, to help you understand (or judge harshly) all the beautiful guests and their full aesthetic. Plus, of course, the gracious gift of laying eyes on your beautiful host each episode. I'm just here to give the people what they need.Thanks for listening and have a good week fam. The world's not over yet.Music:TOOGOOD - OUTBACK (feat. WUSTA) See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

"Heavy Metal is the most conservative of all loud music. Let's face it, not even a gym teacher could get as many people to dress alike."This week on Articulate, Paige Campbell comes on to elaborate on Metal- its history, culture, and transformation into a lifestyle. You ever burn down 30 churches before?? Now that's metal.Dip your toe in, perform some illegal activities, and have a metal week.Music:Metalicious by Alexander Nakarada | https://www.serpentsoundstudios.comMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comAttribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

"If you were ever abducted by aliens, the first thing I'd ask is whether they came from a planet where people also deny science."When was the Universe created? Are we alone? Is the 4th dimension bussin'? None of these questions are answered in this weeks episode, a beautiful conversation with local comic Nicky P. A silly conversation about the new James Webb telescope snowballed into getting to know Nicky's passion and drive for learning, playing music, and doing standup comedy. Strap in and keep your arms in the vehicle at all times.Sweet dreams and even sweeter weeks to come.Music:Premonition of Tomorrow by Keys of Moon | https://soundcloud.com/keysofmoonMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comAttribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0)https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

“I don't drink these days; I'm allergic to alcohol and narcotics- I break out in handcuffs.”This week, let's give our guest a great big Howdy! Thomas Patrick hops on Articulate this week to walk us through his creative process in writing, stand up, and painting. A lot of what comes through is emotional outlet- especially after becoming sober and fully processing past events. This process helps reveal and accept more about ourselves in ways that can be harsh, but also, sometimes f*ckin' hilarious.Keep your eyes on the prize, and don't forget to vibe.

"Being in the army is like being in the Boy Scouts, except that the Boy Scouts have adult supervision." This week local skater Pete Eckenroth joins for an episode about the good ol' B.S. of A. baby. From the structure of ranks, to getting stabbed, and fun (probably true) conspiracies, this episode packs in everything you'll need (but probably never need) to know about Boy Scouts. Spoiler: You'll likely never be as cool as an Eagle Scout.

"You explain, man, what's going on in your brain. You can't tell somebody what's happening, what's going on in your-" ... "Why don't you just try?" HOLY COW we did it. 100 episodes. In this episode we take a look back at the highs and lows over the past 2 years. Great episodes like Amid Livid Covid Frustrations (EP29) about a kid trying to graduate in a new pandemic-ridden world, or Standing Up Again (EP76) and the story with the hillbillies helping suction kerosene out your gas tank... and then all the not-so-Articulate episodes which shall not be named. Those episodes can die. A comprehensive look back. Thank you all for the validation and attention over the past 100 episodes, and I hope you have a good next 100!

"Words make you think. Music makes you feel. A song makes you feel a thought." Neurotic tendencies to do the same thing over and over again sometimes pay off. This week Samantha Padgett walks us through her 3:1 Ableton ratio for creating the perfect loops. The inspiration for her music comes with a nostalgic and emotional tie to academic learning, soundscapes, and memories; a connection that hopefully we can all make.

"It has become quite appallingly obvious that our technology has exceeded our humanity." This week on Hot Ones, Ben Staab hops on to dish out some spicy hot takes regarding a passionate distaste for the metaverse. As technology progresses, more content is shoved in our faces, leaving less time for breathing room and thinking in the real world and more time for contemplating pointless decisions. As they take away our connections in reality, what will we really have moving forward? Will we still have what we consider to be life? Beauty? Definitely not sanity, especially after listening to this episode of Articulate, with Steve McJones. Stay safe out there fam... but like not too safe. Enjoy!

“Money is good for nothing unless you know the value of it by experience.” This week on Articulate, we're joined by the professional accountant Logan Malin as he guides us through his experiences with trivia night, living out of a car, and keeping obligations from becoming jobs. A good outlet always helps; but so do comedy and drugs, so it's really up to you to just pick your poison. No tomar drogas y tengas una semana fantasica.

"Just do it." This week we have roast master Romaine Rosner on to discuss what it takes to drop out of school to pursue a career in comedy; a lot of practice, lying to your parents, and regret. Tons of regret. But also- a clearly pure talent, skill, and a big ol' pair of courage. Have a W, you deserve it.

Ever wonder if the same rules apply with atomic structure? This week Jamie Fitz joins Articulate to cover the world of nanotechnology- a wide array of engineering projects on the molecular world.

"If my soul's impeccable taste in music throws you off, then learn to tune me out." What's up skaters? This week Mr. Peter Eckenroth hops on the pod to discuss various music choices we all make daily. Where do our main influences come from? Why do Dads have such good taste? What's the best way to experience music, and why is it a phone speaker out of a plastic cup in the 8th grade? From Barry Manilow to A Day To Remember, all your burning music questions are answered in this week's episode of Articulate.

"The chief enemy of creativity is good sense." This week, you're gonna have to let us nerd out real quick as we've got Manny Brown and Tyler Wolf here to talk about dirty underwear and all the stages of grief that follow. Stand-Up Comedy; sometimes an idea just comes to you, sometimes you gotta put the work in, and sometimes you just relate to people that don't trust their farts either.

"Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one." Hello from a screen about 7-10 inches from your face, you ready for a reality check? Just in case you forgot, none of this is real and you can do whatever you want. There may be some stuff you deal with for a bit, but the simulation has to end eventually... Check out Brandergram and NowRoasting, it's good stuff! Also have a good week maybe.

"I wanna do it because it's fun. It's fun to do bad things. I want to do hoodrat stuff with my friends." Oh you want another comic on the podcast? Say less. This week Drew Montana joins to discuss his deertagging-past with yetis, flaming arrows, and how mailboxes are absolute garbage and deserve to be treated as such. We also get a glimpse into where his style comes from, the effort it takes to start and consistently do comedy (especially through a pandemic), and how cool talking pandas are. Check out Durag and the Deertag podcast and check Drew out on local shows in Philly and NYC pretty much whenever. And maybe have a good week too, possibly.

"The world is too noisy and distracted to probably ultimately survive. Everyone needs to shut the f*ck up. The answers are in silence. Monks set themselves on fire to protest and to make this point. Just consider it." Akaash Shukla joins this week to discuss the wisdom we've gained from some of our philosophical mentors like Ram Dass, Garry Shandling, and the "inconceivable" guy from Princess Bride. We discuss how venturing into the self and submitting to the process has affected our comedic takes, and how they may play into society as a whole. Also go check out his podcast, "It's Just Another Excuse" and come see us at 2street on Tuesday nights. Good luck, and let's all cross our fingers in hopes we can make it to next week.

"You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is: Never try." Ever wonder what it's like to know without a doubt that you're a garbage failure of a human being? Try doing stand up comedy, you're consistently reminded and it's amazing. George Miller comes on to discuss his background, how it led him to becoming a sweaty mess on stage, and in turn how bombing can make crushing that much more gratifying. Have a good week. Or don't.

Hey guys here's a little essay I wrote up around my recent encounters with a normal routine and why it's important to find appreciation in it, even if you often find yourself bored or put off.

Trevor Darmour, (Party McFly [Trilly Ray Cyrus}), joins us this week to discuss how the conversation around mental illnesses have changed with the more recent generations to be more open and honest, which may or may not be the best thing we could be known for. While it says a lot about the progressive nature of people, it unfortunately doesn't change the way mental illnesses affect us. Each of us have our problems, whether that be anxiety, addiction, enjoying superhero network television shows, depression, literally anything that keeps you down. This episode attempts to tackle how these things can affect us, getting to that realization, and some possible solutions on working through them. As always, stay safe goons and have a nice week.

"Young Papi" Quincy Avery hops on the podcast this week as Articulate's first New Jersey guest. When we first met, it was in a very professional setting; yet somehow we found a way to connect immediately on creativity and motivation. In this episode, I brush on some of the psychology behind motivation, which is (according to the APA) directly related to learning. We both expand on how it applies to us, and our experiences thus far. To us, it seems like a great way to level up and to truly ask yourself an important question: "What's next?"

"Write to please just one person.

In this episode, two happy brozos sit down to have a conversation about the weird state of feeling content. Reaching a place of peace seems like an unachievable challenge sometimes, and when the world keeps beatin' ya down its hard to be comfortable getting comfortable. From Maslow's hierarchy to expressing truth to shining your light, a broad range of hope is exposed in this week's uplifting conversation.

There is a STRICT difference between Computer Science and Computer Engineering, and it's not just a word. Zach Schmitz is here to talk all about his degree and passion that involves technology you use everyday... EVEN THE WAY YOU'RE SEEING THIS NOW. This episode is proof that most of us know nothing (probably)- especially me- and shouldn't be afraid to ask the wrong questions. Zach wanted me to let you know that he meant transistor pins instead of base emitter and gate, if you choose to follow that storyline. Either way, learn about your phone, your brain, and AI a little bit in this week's episode, and live a happy present life. PLEASE.

Love Donnie Darko? Wish you could listen to the movie on the go? Don't worry, your boy Steve's got you. Happy Halloween.

What better to get ya into the Halloween season than a bunch of bozos sitting around talkin' scary? This week some fellas dive into the history of Halloween, the psychology of horror, and some top tier movies to watch to celebrate the October festivities. Celts? All Saints Day? Scary Stories to Tell In the Dark? Make-Out Reef? Real Experience with Ouija Boards? Freezing to Death? What more could you ask for? Holidays mean more now than ever before. Celebrate when you can, have fun, live life, and buy into goofy holidays. Hope everybody's doing well.
