Peaches, Aaron, and Trent rip through the absurdity of modern America: college kids turned radicals, media gaslighting, doomsday cycles, and why half the gym should just put some damn clothes on.

Why This Episode Matters:This episode is a deep, grounded reminder that longevity in music doesn't come from chasing trends or algorithms. It comes from doing the work, living life, and letting experience shape the sound. Recorded in person at Nothing_Neue's Brooklyn studio, the conversation is reflective, practical, and quietly powerful.Who is Nothing_Neue:Nothing_Neue is a Brooklyn-based producer and artist whose work sits at the intersection of broken beat, soul, hip-hop, and experimental rhythm. Alongside his own artistic output, he works within the music tech world, giving him a rare dual perspective on creativity, industry pressure, and identity.What We Dive Into:* Why living life is essential to making meaningful music* The danger of chasing “radio friendly” or algorithm-approved sounds* Separating your artistic identity from your day job* Morning practice, discipline, and removing creative pressure* Letting unfinished ideas have value instead of forcing outcomes* Why support has to be active, not passive* Choosing an unconventional path and accepting unconventional resultsThree Key Takeaways:* You can't skip life and expect great art: Music gets better when it's informed by lived experience, not constant output.* Unconventional paths come with unconventional timelines: If you choose authenticity, you have to accept results that don't mirror anyone else's.* Practice removes pressure: When music has a guaranteed place in your day, everything else becomes bonus time.Before You Go:If you've been forcing productivity or measuring your work against someone else's success, take a step back. Build your walls, rooms, and houses before worrying about the final home. Progress isn't always loud.Chapters:0:00 – In-studio intro from Brooklyn0:57 – D'Angelo, life experience, and making music too close to the work2:46 – Why living life improves creativity4:04 – Gym vs bike analogy for creative process4:46 – Printing demos and listening away from the studio6:45 – Distance, objectivity, and breaking critical habits9:28 – Substances, creativity, and emotional avoidance11:42 – Pain, avoidance, and emotional honesty13:48 – Family, mortality, and confronting old wounds16:55 – Reprioritizing time, discipline, and energy19:57 – Discovering The Big Leap and the upper-limit problem24:38 – Self-imposed ceilings and early musical validation28:46 – Playlist Retreat, imposter syndrome, and belonging32:54 – Music as a communal experience36:12 – Letting ego step aside for collaboration40:41 – Translating inspiration into technique45:24 – How Nothing Neue practices instruments48:54 – Learning taste, preference, and musical language52:02 – Weed, reading, and rethinking time55:18 – Walls, Rooms, Houses, Homes creative framework58:53 – Morning practice and removing pressure1:03:18 – Weekday vs weekend creative routines1:05:24 – Recent releases and upcoming remixes1:06:27 – Favorite hardware and inspirations1:07:41 – Artists that changed his thinking1:07:57 – Best free tools and YouTube as education1:12:55 – Learning fundamentals vs chasing shortcuts1:17:44 – Rapid-fire questions1:18:33 – Loneliness in the music industry1:20:06 – Underrated “product” for creatives1:21:26 – Advice ignored and advice worth ignoring1:23:24 – Authenticity over chasing radio success1:24:40 – Undoing algorithms and passive consumption1:27:21 – Active support, community, and closing thoughts1:29:02 – Final recap and ProducerHead outroList of References from the Interview:Songs / Artists* D'Angelo* Lyric JonesBooks* Making Records by Phil RamoneHardware / Tools* SP-404* Alpha Juno* SeratoConnect with Nothing_Neue:* YouTube: @NothingNeue* Instagram: @nothing_neue* Spotify: Nothing_Neue* Apple Music: Nothing_NeueConnect with Toru:* Website: torubeat.com* Instagram: @torubeat* YouTube: @torubeat* Spotify: Toru* Apple Music: ToruCredits:This episode was co-produced, engineered and edited by Matthew Diaz.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, it's one of those episodes where nothing is technically related… and yet somehow it all is. Very Friday energy (but HAPPY MONDAY!!!). We kick things off with Tate entering her unzipping era (a big-girl milestone no one prepares you for!!!) and come to terms with the fact that we've officially become the parents we SWORE we'd never be (hahahaha). We have another SHOW REC (is this our new thing???) - His & Hers.. Then react to Matt Damon and Ben Affleck's take on Netflix and filmmaking (I think we agree?? I mean we are to the point that Harrison bought a phone lock box sooooo). Then it's toddler parent life as usual: discovering that “tractor wheels” are apparently a food, relying on DoorDash as a legitimate parenting strategy, and settling a cohabitating Bicker of the Week we didn't know we felt so strongly about (do you dry off IN the shower or ON the bath mat??). Mid-episode chaos includes gym drama involving a smoothie bar heist (and learning about Harrison's fascination with bank robberies?!), home updates (haunted light, breakfast nook plans, and our couch ordered on vibes alone), and a very real debate about whether Dad gets any say in nursery design. We also talk through our night nurse plan for baby #2 — why we're doing it again and what we learned the first time around. We close with Tate discovering SHOPPPING (hello sparkly cowboy boots), why buying kids clothes for their “future age” is a scam, a viral moment where a mom throws an iPad out the car window (we have thoughts), an alarm clock that charges you to snooze, and the comment section absolutely lighting us up over the word “de-thaw” (WOOPS).  LOVE YOU GUYS!  Timestamps:  00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:05:18 Tate's latest “big girl” milestone: the “unzipping” phase  00:07:22 We've officially become the parents we SWORE we'd never be 00:10:21 Show rec: His & Hers 00:11:16 Matt Damon + Ben Affleck on Netflix “ruining” movies (kinda true?) 00:13:22 Our continued war against Apple products (phone box, middle of he night Apple Watch)  00:17:45 PSA: “tractor wheels” are apparently actually a top-tier toddler food 00:19:00 Our Friday night parenting hack: DoorDash 00:21:40 Bicker of the Week: dry off IN the shower or ON the bath mat? 00:23:34 Gym chaos: the smoothie bar heist 00:30:46 Home updates: haunted light, breakfast nook plans & the new couch 00:41:13 Hot take: does Dad get a vote on nursery design?! 00:46:11 Our night nurse plan (and why we're doing it again) 00:51:35 Why you should stop buying “future size” kids clothes  00:53:07 Toddler shopping: Tate picked her own sparkly cowboy boots 00:56:31 Things We DMed Each Other: Mom throws iPad out the car window 00:59:36 Things We DMed Each Other: Alarm clock that charges $10 to snooze 01:01:50 From the comments: “de-thaw” is not a word (apparently) 01:03:04 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod --------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Merit Beauty: Right now, Merit Beauty is offering our listeners their Signature Makeup Bag with your first order at https://www.meritbeauty.com *Doordash: Parenting can be chaotic, unpredictable, and complicated.

In this episode, I sit down with the one and only Lee Priest at the iconic Gold's Gym in Venice California, to unpack the real foundations of bodybuilding: hard training, simple nutrition, and ruthless consistency. Lee shares what his actual contest prep looked like (including the cycles people still argue about), why modern bodybuilding often looks "softer," and the intensity mindset most lifters have lost. We also go deeper on focus, distraction, and why phones are quietly destroying training quality, and even life quality. If you're serious about building muscle, staying powerful as you age, and cutting through the noise, this one delivers.   5 Bullet Points: Lee's real contest-prep cycle, explained simply Why "more gear" often makes you worse Old school training principles that still win The intensity mindset most lifters avoid Phones, distraction, and lost training quality   About Ben Ben Pakulski is the Chief Performance Officer to elite executives, successful entrepreneurs, and top athletes.With over 25 years of experience, he coaches high achievers to build the physical, psychological, and metabolic resilience required to lead at the highest level. As the creator of the Muscle Intelligence framework, Ben specializes in aligning biology and behavior to drive sustained peak performance. His mission is to redefine what's possible for people in their prime and push the boundaries of human potential.   Guest Bio Lee Priest is a legendary Australian IFBB professional bodybuilder known for world-class proportions, freaky density, and a brutally honest voice in the sport. Rising through the ranks as a teenage standout, Lee earned his pro card in the early 1990s and became one of bodybuilding's most iconic physiques through the late-90s and 2000s. He's respected not just for how he looked on stage, but for how he trained: hard, simple, consistent, and focused on execution over ego. Today, Lee remains a fan-favorite for his unfiltered opinions on modern bodybuilding culture, drugs, training intensity, and what it actually takes to build an elite body.   Time Stamps: 00:00 - Meeting Lee Priest: A Bodybuilding Legend 01:45 - Lee Priest's Early Career and Challenges 03:28 - Training at Gold's Gym: Memories and Changes 07:53 - Competing and Training Philosophy 11:18 - Reflections on Bodybuilding and Life 32:58 - Commonwealth Connections and Prime Ministers 33:13 - First Exposure to Olympia 33:35 - Comparing Bodybuilders: Then and Now 34:18 - Training Techniques and Intensity 42:06 - The Role of Technology in Training 46:23 - The Importance of Family Values 47:06 - The Influence of Social Media 48:15 - Longevity and Health Concerns 53:37 - The Impact of Modern Lifestyle on Kids 56:02 - Concluding Thoughts and Future Plans 57:31 - Personal Reflections on Training and Health 01:00:16 - The Evolution of Training Methods

This episode isn't about motivation. It's about perspective. Cyrus Rustom shares the moments that reshaped how he sees life — from joining the Marines at 16 to escape chaos at home, to surviving an accident he was certain he wouldn't live through, to rebuilding everything afterward. We talk about business failures, discipline myths, opening a company one week before Covid shut the world down and why real risk isn't danger — it's waiting for certainty that never comes. This conversation isn't polished or performative. It's about identity, loss, belonging, and what changes when you realise time isn't guaranteed. Some decisions aren't heroic. They're survival.   3:31 – Learning What Not to Do 5:28 – The Biggest Mistakes 09:35 – The Discipline Lie 12:37 – The Start of Boxica 14:32 - Worst Timing Possible 16:12 – Making People Feel Welcome at The Gym 24:05 – Entrepreneurship 24:52 – What is Success? 36:27 - I Joined the Marines at 16 39:35 – The World of the Marines 54:44 - Crushed Between Two Vehicles 1:01:42 - Perspective Saved Me 1:05:27 - Leaving Was Lonely 1:07:42 - I Wouldn't Change What Happened   Show Sponsors: AYS Developers: A design-focused company dedicated to crafting exceptional homes, vibrant communities, and inspiring lifestyle experiences. https://bit.ly/AYS-Developers   Follow Spencer Lodge on Social Media https://www.instagram.com/madeindubaipodcast/?hl=en https://www.instagram.com/spencer.lodge/?hl=en  https://www.tiktok.com/@spencer.lodge  https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencerlodge/  https://www.youtube.com/c/SpencerLodgeTV  https://www.facebook.com/spencerlodgeofficial/    Follow Cyrus Rustom on Social Media https://www.instagram.com/coachcyrus/ https://www.instagram.com/boxica/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/cyrus-rustom-350a7098/?originalSubdomain=ae

In this episode, we're getting real about money leaks—those sneaky daily and weekly expenses that drain your bank account without you even realizing it. We've been there, done that, and learned the hard way, so we're sharing what we discovered through our own financial journey. Key Moments: Daily & Weekly Money Leaks: Coffee runs and eating out for lunch (we're talking $15-20/day adds up FAST) Impulse buys at gas stations and grocery stores Parking tickets (seriously, just pay the $2 instead of risking a $30 fine) Food delivery fees and tipping on top Grocery shopping without a plan—we used to waste so much food! Subscriptions & Tech: Netflix, Disney+, Prime, Spotify, Apple Music (we literally just realized we were both paying for music services separately!) Gym memberships that never get used (1/3 of gym members are basically donating their money) App subscriptions you forgot about Phone plans that need annual reviews The Big Ones: Vehicles (Chris's hot take: buying brand new is the worst financial decision—you lose 30% the second you drive off the lot) Online shopping and the dopamine hit of "deals" Beauty products and salon services Clothing trends vs. thrift shopping   Chapters: 2:45 - Daily Coffee & Lunch Leaks 8:20 - Grocery Shopping Without a Plan 14:15 - Subscriptions Eating Your Budget 20:30 - The Vehicle Money Trap 26:45 - Our Financial Breaking Point 33:10 - The Year of Monthly Money Meetings 36:50 - Teaching Kids About Money   Let's dive in!

In this episode, the hosts discuss the importance of community and respect in fitness, the balance between open gym culture and group classes, and the future of training trends. They explore the role of technology and AI in fitness, the significance of individualized programs, and the impact of attitude on gym culture. The conversation also touches on morning routines and the rise of jujitsu as a popular form of training.   Takeaways   The main goal of a gym is to help people get healthier. Balancing open gym culture with community is essential. Respect between different training styles fosters a positive environment. Individual design can coexist with group classes if managed well. Setting clear standards helps maintain gym culture. Competitors should respect the space of regular gym-goers. Attitude and respect are crucial in fitness communities. Technology is shaping the future of fitness training. AI can enhance personalized training but should not replace human connection. Morning routines can set the tone for the day. Topics Building a Stronger Community in Fitness Navigating the Balance of Open Gym and Culture Sound bites "Respect is key in a fitness community." "We can coexist together in the gym."

What would happen if you treated your midlife like the start of your athletic prime?Michelle MacDonald sits down with longtime client and PR executive Jodi Echakowitz to uncover how one woman redefined her relationship with health, aging, and ambition. From a scary brush with brain fog during perimenopause to transforming her body, mindset, and daily habits, Jodi shares how prioritizing her health not only gave her a new physique but a new life. Together, they unpack what real consistency looks like for women who travel, work, parent…and still make time to train like athletes. They also discuss Jodi's decision to pursue cosmetic surgery after extreme weight loss, what self-discipline actually feels like in real life, and how chasing excellence, rather than perfection, is the most joyful form of self-respect.
