Masiel taps into her own life and current events around her to make light of situations and maintain some sort of connection to the outside world during lock down in Chicago. Is this a real pod, a one woman show, an extended rant? Who knows? Join her to find out as she goes on this journey. To finish off the episode, she includes "Artist's Corner" which showcases her own pieces and that of the listeners.
The FMJ crew hit the ground running with goofy news involving a Puerto Rican woman endorsing Trump, a woman in a wedding dress wearing a fanny pack, and a dildo carrying Labrador. Stay tuned as Alyssa convinces Masiel to embarrass herself and sets the alley-oop for next week's shenanigans. It's going to be litty! As always, it's High Noon CST here.
Masiel's car told her she doesn't know how to drive. Alyssa reflects on how the dynamic duo met. The 45th speaks of his importance to Puerto Rico like a scorned ex with delusions of grandeur. Shout outs to Germany and Ireland for giving the FMJ a listen!
Alyssa starts the show off right by running through the intro while Masiel takes a bathroom break. Alyssa and Masiel discuss the goofy stuff that goes on behind the scenes. A matter of unnecessary intolerance and police brutality rubs Masiel and Alyssa the wrong way. A request to fire the 45th is put out into the ether. Artist's corner is an audio recording of a previous performance from ya girl Masi.
Masiel dives into cancel culture and the 45th being the perfect example of it. Talk of work stress, and keeping hope alive in times of severe anxiety leads to the 3 Gs, as Masi comes full circle to bring back her ace, Alyssa. Reflection on a beautiful soul recently lost, Chadwick Boseman and the anniversary of a phenomenal woman gone...Masi's mother. Artist's corner is an untitled piece from a train ride last year. Rest in Paradise Masi's mami!
A five week long hiatus led to Masiel's confusion as she reached a fork in the road. A new drink needs some watering down, but that's not the only thing as Masiel unloads on unspoken annoyances. Alyssa marks another "Shit Masiel Says" segment with random reactions to make silly things downright stupid!
Masiel, in a sleepy stupor discusses not having the use of her bathroom for a few days. The state of things and how important it is that we have our fellow humans best interest at heart. A hilarious new segment brought to you by Alyssa called "Shit Masiel says". Artist corner: Alyssa reads some drunk poems for us to giggle.
Masiel touches on the madness of supporting the kind of politics that cost your loved ones their basic human rights, bursting childhood bubbles and not giving fucks about sugar coating some difficult turds. Artist's Corner, Masiel performs an oldie but goodie "Make Love"
After returning from Florida, Masiel reflects on the sad truth of the history of police brutality and racism just after her fear of it was discussed in the previous episode. The names of victims (nowhere near as many as there really are) were spoken.
Masiel dishes on her first few weeks in Chicago which sounds like something out of a gay novela. A Tampa Bay native, she touches on the Florida man and woman antics that made the news again. Artist's Corner includes a piece sent in by Chicago native Lyriq.
Masiel calls out a friend for her misuse of the term "getting old" while in the company of older people, discusses the funky freshness that is GLITTENS, shares news of her home (Florida), and finds she has to switch to the dark side eeeek! Artist Corner is an untitled poem by Masiel about something that happened and no longer matters but did at some point... Yawn! Wine of the day is Sauvignon Blac.
A new "development" in Masiel's 1 hour photo fiasco's comes to light. A recap on a Cinco de Mayo/Taco Tuesday/Birthday celebration leads to some wine sipping. This week's wine choice is a Petite Sirah. Masiel gets roasted as the worst Covid-19 Target shopper. Honor to mothers and their impact long after they pass is paid. Artist's Corner includes a piece dedicated to Masiel's mother.
Masiel reflects on the excitement and process of recording and publishing episode 1. Her domino effect leads down a path of failed weed experiences, positive growth, not giving a shit in her 30s and the struggle of taking your camera film roll to be developed. Some scripted and some way off topic ramblings and an awesome ending to a relevant thought with a spoken word piece called "Happy Accident" by the host herself.
In the first minisode, Masiel admits to being a novice to podding while being unable to fight the urge to share with the masses. She speaks on her experiences and silly opinions while touching on the lack of smog in LA since the pandemic quarantine, the amount of porn usage and closes out with Artist's Corner which showcases one of her spoken word pieces.
