Can You Tell Me A Story?

Hi friends!! I know we're already at the end of January... but happy 2025 :) Thanks Nate for being my first stranger-turned-friend of the year

Hi friends! Here's an end of year episode for ya'll :) Stranger-turned-friend, Madison, joins us on the pod today. We chat about her ADHD diagnosis and journey towards sobriety, becoming more self-aware and stepping away from toxic friendships, and doing things for their own sake. My favorite thing about her is how open she is in following what lights her up. She loves learning about skincare, writing poetry, graphic design, coding. And then I find out that her job is an accountant.

Hi friends! My next stranger-turned-friend, Elias, is a quiet and introspective lover of music. We talk about Elias' experiences as a music student in Finland (he's a drummer boy!) and how My Chemical Romance helped him accept himself as he came to terms with his gender identity and struggles of body dysmorphia. We also explore how becoming more aware of our reactions helps us to be kinder people, and how alone time can be used for creative pursuits and self-reflection. Oh, one last thing - Elias wants to challenge you to go back to an old hobby and give it another go. No expectations or judgment. Go rediscover your old loves again :) Till next time,  Gladys

Hi friends, I got new mics! I've always wanted to record conversations on walks and park benches in public, so I picked up two wireless mics. Anyway, this is the first conversation I've recorded with my favorite person, Paola, and it's also her birthday today!!!

Enjoy these 3 BIG things and more:

Hi friends, In the 2nd episode of ANALOG, I have the wonderfully self-aware and curious stranger-turned-friend, AccidentalCISO, on the pod. He is a former Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) who burned out after working in a toxic tech career for years. Itching to build a slower life for himself and his family, AccidentalCISO finally started his own consulting firm and now works from an RV, traveling 6-8 weeks of the year in pursuit of a life that centers on travel and nature.

Hi friends! I'm excited to share this conversation with stranger-turned-friend, Kevin, with ya'll

Hellooooo friends :) I had the lovely pleasure of chatting with Adam, who tuned in from the comfort of his front yard as he slow cooked some pulled pork for Super Bowl Sunday. If only you could see the look on his face - sun shining on him, birds chirping in the background - it was pure bliss and peace. Our conversation was honest and heartfelt as Adam shared his life story about being homeless and climbing out of his rock bottom through incremental decisions to be more accountable and treat the people around him a little bit better everyday. We talked all about creating meaningful friendships and relationships, knowing what truly matters in life (hint: it's not work), our ideal day, and saying "I love you" more often. Enjoy the pod!   Till next time,  Gladys

Hi friends, One day in July 2023, I stumbled on a reddit post of someone pouring their soul out, talking about how they transformed their life through small, incremental changes. They started from rock bottom - trauma, nihilistic depression, the whole nine - and was at a point where they had to find a way to... live. I was so compelled to know their story that I messaged them. And that kids, is how this episode was born. Here's all the magic: - How Clarence fell into nihilistic depression - Being autistic, being told you're not good enough - Why Clarence only knew about the pandemic 4 months in - Why do we tend to get more motivation when doing things for others rather than ourselves? - The reason why Clarence became obese after being sexually assaulted - Clarence's process of overcoming his early age speech impedients and what it taught him about communicating with neurotypical people - What can neurotypical people do to understand people with autism - Clarence's encounter with a police officer - What advice would Clarence give to a 15 year old with autism? - Benefits of meditation Above all, Clarence is one of the most genuine and sincere human I've had on this podcast. Please enjoy this lovely conversation :) Till next time,  Gladys

Hi pals! It's sunday, and you know what that means. Another banger of an episode. One of the big joys of chatting with strangers on this podcast is having the space to allow serendipity to do its thing. Sometimes, the conversations are deep, dark, introspective, and insightful. Other times, it's lighthearted, random, and delightful. I think this episode has a gentle blend of both. Anyway, we have Toni from Romania today! It was 3am for him, and boy did we spend a beautiful hour together. We talked all about: - Toni's reflections on his time working at a Romanian casino - How casino life ruined his English lol - What he learnt about himself during therapy - Learning how to accept our parents - Dealing with our own emotions and so much more

She is the creator of Quest of, a delightful deck of self-reflection cards, that encourages its players to sit down and be present with themselves. How often do we make time for that anymore?

Yup, the title says it all.  Bruno's the kind of person you want to keep around for a long time.

**CAUTION: CONTENT CONTAINS POLITICAL TALK AND CONTROVERSIAL OPINIONS. TUNE IN WITH AN OPEN MIND** The Knuckleball Podcast is an exploration of what it means to be human. Each episode, I'll sit down with a stranger or friend for a totally random and unscripted, but cozy and free-flowing hour of introspection and good fun.  Thank you for tuning in. Can't wait for you to jazz with us. // Convo starts at 2:25 mins // Good day friends!  This week, stranger-turned-friend Rob is bringing the metaphorical (White) house down. Hah, get it?  Not gonna lie, part of me feels uncomfortable and almost reluctant to share this episode. This is the first time I've put a magnifying glass to my deep sense of political apathy and boy, do I feel ashamed. Mostly for feeling like I've dismissed my duty as a responsible citizen.  The other part of me feels re-energized. I left this episode feeling so full of curiosity and an urgent need to educate myself about what exactly is happening in our world today.  And that's what I hope you'll take away from this episode. Not the (possibly) controversial political opinions. Rather, leave with the encouragement to continue questioning the world around you. In this episode, you'll enjoy 5 things (and more!):  1. Why should I care about politics? Why should anyone?  2. Rob's empathy for Donald Trump 3. Which would hurt more - being immoral or being a bad politician? 4. What is a good life to Rob?  5. Are Marvel Movies less valuable than Michelangelo's David? Thanks Rob for turning a light on for me.  And if you enjoyed listening to the podcast, I'd appreciate it if you could take a quick 15-20 seconds to leave a review on Apple Podcast and share this with one friend who might groove with this. It'll mean the world to me.  Come say hi to me (I answer everything!) : Instagram - knuckleballpodcast Discord - https://discord.gg/QkzMpbbq

The Knuckleball Podcast is an exploration of what it means to be human. Each episode, I'll sit down with a stranger or friend for a totally random and unscripted, but cozy and free-flowing hour of introspection and good fun. It's light, it's heavy, it's funny, it's heartwarming, but most importantly, it's human. Thank you for tuning in. Can't wait for you to jazz with us. // Hi friends! I know, it's been a while... sorry... BUT boy, do I have something delicious to make up for my absence. Part 2 of Mel is here! More random than the first one, but equally funny with little nuggets of truth in it. While piecing this episode together, I was laughing all the way through. The sheer bursts of energy and chemistry and all around, goodness of this masterpiece is palpable. As Mel would say: This is a rollercoaster that you'll need two teeth to ride in. Because girl has standards. So buckle up, kids. In this episode, you'll enjoy 3 things (and more!): 1. Weird things that we lie about 2. The "struggle" in wanting to be accepted but not wanting to fit in 3. Mel's unbelievable NYC subway encounter with a woman who had a bullet hole in her leg And if you enjoyed listening to the podcast, I'd appreciate it if you could take a quick 15-20 seconds to leave a review on Apple Podcast and spread the word.

The Knuckleball Podcast is an exploration of what it means to be human. Each episode, I'll sit down with one stranger or friend, and we'll ponder about our existence and all the elements of the human condition. // Hi friends! Gosh, I'm so excited to share this week's episode with ya'll. I have the wonderfully chaotic, Mel, on with me today. The biggest thing I love about her is how free-spirited she is. The girl does whatever she wants, whenever she wants. Is that a bad thing? Maybe? But we could all use a little of that IDGAF attitude once in a while. Mel and I laughed over: 1. What's it like to be a sugar baby? 2. Solipsism - is reality really anything beyond our senses/perception? 3. Her very inappropriately funny sexual alien space jail dreams Please enjoy!

COVID got me in the first week so apologies for the extra late episode :( This week, I sat down with Frank and we had a wonderful conversation about pain and lust. What started out as a quest to find out Frank's deepest desires and goals in life ended up in a rabbit hole to understand our relationship with pain and happiness. It's a whirlwind of an episode and I hope you enjoy it! Instagram - knuckleballpodcast

She might've been a stranger... but boy did I feel like I was talking to another version of me.
