I Just Can't Stop Talking!

Ashton is transitioning RIGHT NOW. And you have a chance to help her! Please look below for donation info! We recorded this about a year ago, and it is FINALLY here for your listening pleasure! And what a pleasure it will be. Ashton takes us through her journey, how her identification as a woman has impacted her life and how transitioning into herself is only beginning. She has put in a year of voice work, hormones, and advances in style; she is currently recovering from surgery, and the process is exactly as challenging and expensive as she made it sound a year ago when we recorded this. The most exciting part of this discussion for me, is trying to figure out if I am an egg myself. If you don't know what an egg is, then you really gotta get listening! And once you know what an egg is, you are encouraged to decide whether or not YOU think I am one. Below is a link to donate to Ashton's recovery/medical fund, and every little bit helps your girl out! When you make your donation to Ashton, you are also REQUIRED to vote whether or not you think I am an egg! Votes will be tallied, results will be announced, and a consequence of the winning side will be revealed...

Woah! Where is that title going?? This one is wild. My dad and I sit down and talk sobriety. I am more sober than I have been since 12, and he is a sobriety champion, and we talk this topic out from all angles! Bill is a voice actor in Quarantine Radio Theater, and a thespian you can catch in some local productions if you're lucky, he's also great at building restoration! He's a lover of animals, and our dogs join the podcast as well. Getting to have a talk like this with my dad was incredibly special for me, and objectively I know this is going to be a great one to hear. I don't want to spoil it, my dad is a great speaker and we'd both love for you to hear it all from him! This week's charitable encouragement, chosen by my dad, is Safe Connections. https://safeconnections.org/ Safe Connections offers a variety of resoures and services for survivors of domestic and sexual assault, so follow the link, and click the word donate in the upper right corner. Love you all very much! Hit me up and lemme know what you think, or hit me up if you just wanna talk about something!

This episode was a blast! It's always a good time to talk to Mat. Mat Lewis works at a brewery, and this is our spin on that standard two-white-guys-talking-beer kinda podcast episode! Just a really great conversation, with a really great guy to talk to. Learn how to make beer, how it can fulfill you creatively, and how it needs to be talked to appropriately. We used to have hours of talking like this when we worked together at a different brewery, so it was really nice to have some drinks, and have a good time. I'm glad to share it with you, hope you enjoy. Then later, I hope you visit Mat, and enjoy some beers! Mat wanted to make sure that anyone wanting to donate to a good cause be encouraged to pick their favorite local mental health nonprofit to donate money to. Mental health is an incredibly important thing to support, and bolstering the local resources is one of the best ways to contribute to our cultural shift towards healthier minds inside healthier humans! He also wanted me to include a local mental health nonprofit of my choosing, and so here is a link if you'd like to donate to the Missouri Mental Health Foundation! https://www.missourimhf.org/donate/ --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/christopher-burke17/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/christopher-burke17/support

Jordan and I sat and talked for a while! We had such a blast, aaannnd it's a long one. If you've ever wondered anything about us as a couple, the answer is probably somewhere in this jam packed episode. We did a bit of catching up, but then we unpacked. We unpacked five years of relationship stuff! It was a lot of fun, it got real, and we talked about a lot of stuff that doesn't come up super often, and all amidst our ENGAGEMENT TIMES! So just sit back, relax, treat yourself to breaks when you need them, and enjoy a big ole lovey relationship episode. Unrelated to everything we talked about, Jordan's pick for a charity or cause for listeners to donate money to, should hey wish, is Greenpeace! Greenpeace is a global network involving many organizations which bring attention to environmental problems as well as solutions. If you want to donate, there is an option in the upper left corner of their website, this link will take you there. https://www.greenpeace.org/usa/ Thank you so much for listening!

We're back! And I'm gonna keep making this podcast as a great excuse to have some fun conversations with some fascinating people. As often as possible! This one is just to catch up on some life stuff, and talk about what's next for the podcast. I'm happy to be releasing episodes again, and I've had such an amazing experience recording the episodes we have on deck. Thank you so much for listening, I promise to keep doing my best for you! Among the new stuff I wanna do, I'm including an opportunity to donate to a good cause. Later episodes will have causes picked by our guests, so today will be one I wanna include! https://blackpowerblueprint.org/donate/ Here is the link to donate to the Black Power Blueprint. This group is working hard in the north side of St. Louis, to transform the community into one owned and managed by the members of the community, and with infrastructure and coordination to continue making improvements indefinitely. They're outstanding, and more important than ever during a time in which the city government is close to completing a decades long project to displace an entire community of people. If you're wyt, just think of a donation as reparations on your terms! I dunno if I'm qualified to say that at all, but I'll say anything I wanna if I think it'll get you to donate! Whoever donates the most and sends a screenshot or some sort of proof to IJCSTpodcast@outlook.com, WILL get a gift! To be determined and announced officially, at a later time. Love you all so much!

Wow! What a big episode for us to end poetry month with! T-Spirit herself sat down over zoom and talked with me for a while about all sorts of amazing stuff. First of all, she has a new book out now! Some Things Must Be Heard! I've said it before, and I will say it again, this should be required reading/listening for any poets or fans of poetry, as well as a required book for anyone's 2021 reading list. After listening to the audio book which comes with the book itself, you will feel empowered and creative and ready to take on the world. You deserve that. Follow everything she does on facebook or instagram; more importantly, be sure to get your copy of her book, then book her for your events, get your own Intimate Expression, and be on the look out for her writing workshops! You can find all those things and more at https://tspirit.net/ As always, find me on tiktok and facebook, and hit me up with any feedback or fun stuff you'd like to at IJCSTpodcast@outlook.com Love you all so much! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/christopher-burke17/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/christopher-burke17/support

Been a little while since we've had an episode this long!!! And you know I just love the long ones. Zach Brown is an amazing person, and a very talented poet known as the Word Nerd! He and I have a lot in common, haven't had the chance to talk this much before, and neither of us had a time limit, so we just let it RIP! Poetry talk, current events talk, and tangents galore. Not to mention exploring the amazing game of Find-the-Right-Word! He truly had a lot of great wisdom to share as well. And his amazing poetry is scattered through the episode, more towards the end, and very worth hearing! Jordan even makes a surprise appearance, and if you listen close enough you just might catch her! If you want to check Zach out, find Word Nerd Poetry on facebook and instagram.

Wow, what a special episode this is! The man who welcomed me to the StL poetry scene, the man who lives the life of a creative in all ways, the man himself, Chris Ware! I am so grateful we got to sit down and talk for the first time in a while. He had so much good wisdom to drop in our affirmations, gratitude and pride time. We get to hear about all the great things Chris is working on, as well as which ones you can check out and how, and we hear some epic poetry, some old and some new!

Oh wow, do we have an epic episode for you today! Kisha, Unlimited the Poet, the founder and owner of The Woke Brand is our guest, and we got into it! She had plenty of gems during our affirmations, proud and grateful talk. We got into some good business talk, and you won't get all her secrets, but if entrepreneurship is your interest, then she is an amazing person to listen to. We managed to talk plenty about poetry too, and she shared two POWERful poems with us. Seriously, if all you do is listen to this episode for the poems she shared, then you'll be so happy. Make sure to check out The Woke Brand on Facebook or Instagram, get some customized clothes, some of her original designs, or find something for someone you know!

Oh dang! What is up??? Not much here, just a full life and poetry discussion with Blakk the poet, the man himself: Jared Lewis!!! We do our usual stuff, he had nothing but wisdom and happy vibes for us, and then we get deep talking about poetry! You've gotta listen to the full thing this time (I know, I know, as if you'd ever wanna do anything else), because he spits some perfect poetry towards the end and we close it out with one of his new favorite poems. Be sure to follow him on the socials, and start by checking out his instagram @47_blakk_74, we talk about what he's got going on lately and it's a lot of cool stuff to check out! So enjoy.

Just a long long episode about poetry! Poetry month is coming up, and IJCST will feature as many poet interviews as possible, so to set the tone for that, Jordan and I talked about all things poetry we could manage from our lives, and definitely missed some stuff! The reason it took so long, is not only because we have both done a ton of poetry stuff, but also because we were having TOO MUCH FUN recording together. So enjoy the joy, and enjoy the poetry! The best poems got shared at the end, so good luck making it that far!

Whew! Talked about a bunch! Did our affirmations, gratitude, pride, and mental health check in, and then I just talked a bunch about what has been keeping me busy lately! Didn't get to it all, but I got to a lot of good stuff. So I addressed some podcast feedback, and talked about what this podcast is right now. I talked about my Park Day and some awesome news! Also a little about future podcast episode ideas that should be just a whole heck of a good time! I talked about my justice road trip to Jeff City to oppose the Senate Bill 26! If you care about me at all, or if you care about justice and American laws and culture at all, then do everything you can to oppose SB26! If you're getting a little sick of the podcast, by all means support sb26, I do imagine it could be the death of me. Love you all so much! We're doing it! Keep doing it!

Hands down, best episode yet! Hondo is a great friend, and an even greater activist. He was on house arrest during the recording of this episode, hopefully with the end in sight. He shares as much as he can about his journey, from his upbringing, to his entry into activism, from the events leading to his house arrest, to where we are now, and we talk plenty about where we need to go next. I'm not gonna spoil anything, I'm gonna let him tell you! We talk briefly about donating to a fund for Hondo to aid his activist pursuits, especially given his current circumstances, so if you would like to do that, for now send money to the $projectchristopher cashapp, *and make sure to include the name "Hondo" in your donation*. I am using my cashapp rather than a crowd funding site to ensure all money can go to him and not fees and such. If you want to get money to him another way, feel free to reach out to me at IJCSTpodcast@outlook.com. And since I just cannot stop (fucking) talking, I also got to share some about my recent work with the Uhuru Solidarity Movement. Specifically, I talk about the aldermanic race in St. Louis' 3rd Ward, and the challenges faced by Herdosia "Kalambayi" Bentum as she works with the International People's Democratic Uhuru Movement and the Black Power Blueprint to restore north city to a place its residents can call home, and to lay an economic foundation owned by the community which can be built on for years to come.

I had bigger plans for this week's episode, but due to unforeseen mental health struggles those plans will have to wait! I talk about those plans, as well as what kept them from taking place, and what to expect in the future! I made sure to do our affirmations, as well as proud and grateful talk. I also managed to ramble a whole lot about what's been going on with me outside of the struggles. I really love you all so much, glad to have some sort of episode for you. And this episode was meant to be even shorter, but true-to-form I just couldn't stop talking! So there ya go. Be well, take it easy, do the right thing, and enjoy the ride!

Well here it is! A complete and up to date account of my mental health. Nobody asked for it, yet here it is anyway! Much more detailed than I usually care to go, including the nature of my trauma, the nature of my repression, my struggles with denial, resentment, and imposter syndrome, as well as my interventions and growth. Jordan joins me after the first ten minutes, and we managed to be silly through some of the more serious matters, but we waited to get extra silly for the end. And you thought that was it? HAH! I haven't even mentioned the most exciting part of this episode yet!

What? Season 2 already??? Well that was quick! Jordan joined me to talk about a whole bunch of stuff. And as you know, as soon as I get audio and tech figured out, I mess something up, so hopefully you don't have too hard a time hearing her! Anyway, we will make these mistakes a thing of the past soon enough. We did affirmations and talked about the ole G&P (gratitude and pride), talked about our podcast listener info, and played a new game called What Do You Hate More??? This week we compare online-story-recipes to Staged-prank-videos... and boy what a solid matchup! We did some poetry and just had a whole lot of fun.

BEST EPISODE YET! - That's almost all I wanted to type. Seriously, because this is my favorite episode yet! We get DEEP. I love it, and have been refreshed! We talked about so much, I talked about why Isaiah means so much to me, and about how we're doing lately, we did affirmations, and why we're grateful and proud! We talked creativity, and a bit about creativity in the wake of great personal challenges. For Isaiah, creativity has most often meant fashion design, so we talk that and what else creativity means to him now! We also covered growth, tangential to creativity, and also in a separate discussion. He is a growth-minded man, so we covered the topic in a very real way! And we even got deep on sexuality towards the end of the episode! OOOoooOOOooo! Sorry if we get you all hot and bothered before bed. Find us on the socials! If you're on a platform with rating and reviewing, PLEASE do it! I'm just a lil guy, and it'd sure mean a lot. And if not, then you can tell folks about it if it's really something you like and can see forming every episode, get them in early! Together, we'll take this shit to the moon! Or somewhere, I dunno, we'll figure it out! I believe the almighty Anchor gives you the chance to donate if you really love me and want this podcast to get better, so check that out if you feel so inclined!

This episode is all about storytelling! Obviously I only scratched the surface, so storytelling will come up nonstop moving forward. We did our usual IJCST stuff, gratitude, pride, current events, but we tried to do them all in story form this time! I uncovered the long lost origin story of storytelling, and shared it with you all! We talked about some more modern examples as well, how it's all interpreted in our brains, and did some general fanboy behavior over storytelling in general. Peace, Harmony, Laughter, and Love, to you and yours! PS: It has been called to my attention that in a previous episode I accidentally called Dead Eye Dick by Kurt Vonnegut non-fiction. That was a slip of the tongue, it is ABSOLUTELY FICTION.

This was just a good ole fashioned podcast episode right here. We talked about a bunch of stuff! I'm writing this description over a week after recording, so when you listen please tell me if I forgot to mention anything in here! Talked about some local artist friends of mine dropping new music! Talked about the book I'm reading, and I will surely be talking about it more in the future, but if you wanna check it out yourself after hearing me talk about it, the book is Dead Eye Dick, by Kurt Vonnegut. Mentioned more about my favorite elected official Cori Bush. And got DEEP into a comparison I used while talking to my mother recently, about capitalism/old culture vs progress/new culture.

Hey everyone! Finished the CJ journey stuff in this episode. I talk ride-alongs, what the education meant and what I think about it, and my transition out of the pursuit of law enforcement. (and transitioned into the pursuit of happiness ahahahahaha) Before all that, we had an intro that was very full and uplifting! (other than the end of it) Anyway, I fact-checked the 6MWE thing I mentioned in the intro, and I was right, it's fucked, and we need zero-tolerance for shit like that. (no, seriously, absolutely do not let anything like that ever go un-checked. get em.) The ride-along part is longer than I expected because I really let myself have some fun while recording it!

Hey everyone! In this episode I began to tell the story of my Criminal Justice journey! First we brought up some shitty things happening in Missouri, and Jordan joined me briefly to talk more about the show We Are The Champions! As for the CJ journey, this episode only gets into the relevant backstory, the transition into a focus on Law Enforcement, and parts of my time spent studying Criminal Justice. My thoughts on the education itself, and how it informs my activism now, will all come in Part 2 of this journey, next week! Also, I am well aware that I preamble too much, basically nonstop sometimes. Working on it, and you'll hear the results for yourself, so stay tuned! Shitty Stuff from Missouri Follow-up: Kelvin Adams is the superintendent who is leading the closure of 11 St. Louis County schools. There is little which can be done about it now, as the decision will be made the day this episode is released. So should those school close, start with his office to share your complaints and disagreement. It isn't our fault we didn't know sooner, because even though Adams maintains this plan is the product of years of thoughtful deliberation, the plan was shared only last week, a week ahead of the final decision being made. WHATAGUY, AMIRIGHT. Rep Adam Schnelting from St. Charles is responsible for the proposed bill which would shield anyone who hits a person with their car during a riot, or "unlawful demonstration". Senator-elect Rick Brattin is responsible for the proposed bill which would shield anyone who hits a person with their car during a protest. When calling MO reps and senators about those bills, start with their offices, move to your own reps and senators, and then see how many of our state reps and senators you can get a hold of before your lunch break is over!

Whew, talked about a whole bunch of stuff, didn't know if I could stop. Did some honest accounting for my mental health, and had some depressed and angry rants about hating everything... Which is pretty neat I guess! Did some pod-ception, and talked about another pod, on my pod. Talked politics, because nobody is doing that these days, and I really wanna just be unique, ya know?
