Ellory is a stand up comedian and writer based in Los Angeles and is truly one of my favorite stand ups I've ever seen live. This was a super special episode for me because I've been following Ellory for years now ever since I first saw her perform in early 2020, and I feel so lucky I got the opportunity to chat with her and pick her brain a bit. Needless to say I'm obsessed with her and you're about to be too. Ellory's socials: IG: @ellory_smith Twitter: @ellorysmith Funnilingus IG: @funnilingusla www.definitelynotfunny.com

Today we are joined by the magical Lexi Staubi, a multitalented artist who truly has the voice of a Disney princess/angel and the most positive outlook. In this episode we chat about what it's like trying to differentiate yourself as talent in the entertainment industry, some spirituality and manifestation, and of course a bit of relationship ~nonsense~. At one point in the episode we even do a quick little sound bath which was so so cool and I have to say that experiencing it in person is completely different than hearing it over the recording so I implore you to find an opportunity for a sound bath in a city near you! @lxistaubi @defnotfunnypod www.definitelynotfunny.com
This is so important. Celebrate wins and celebrate your friends' wins. It's party time baby @defnotfunnypod www.definitelynotfunny.com
Today we are joined by my dear dear friend, Grant Parker. Grant currently runs a hard seltzer startup with his best friend, and really gets to live out his washed-up frat star dreams.

Today we're discussing all things blockchain, and my cousin Jacob came on to help because my internet research proved to be absolutely useless when it came to an explanation I could understand.

Today we are continuing what I am now calling the “New Kids on the Blockchain” series with a little episode about Web3 and what the hell it even is. The fun part about this episode is that I am joined by my wonderful cousin Hannah Dudley, who is basically my sister and best friend all wrapped up in one. The best part is that she studied symbolic systems at Stanford University and actually has some credibility when talking about this stuff, as opposed to my knowledge of the top three articles that come up when I Google “web3”Sources Referenced: https://www.wired.com/story/web3-gavin-wood-interview/https://www.forbes.com/sites/bernardmarr/2022/01/24/what-is-web3-all-about-an-easy-explanation-with-examples/?sh=5afbae122255
