Today, my guests are Amanda Nyx, a painter, teacher, and installation artist, along with former guest of the show, musician Michael McFarland. I’m such a huge fan of the work Amanda and Michael do in the Cleveland area, especially their work on the McFarland Manor shows, so I wanted to have them on to help spread the word about their new project for Ingenuity Cleveland, entitled “Zen Soundscapes” In our chat, we go over the purpose of Ingenuity Cleveland and how getting involved with that space took Amanda and Michael in new directions as artists. Amanda goes deep on the history and purpose of zen gardens, and Michael explains how their project will be taking the traditional zen garden and enhancing it with technology. Most importantly, the reason I recorded and am releasing this today is to help Amanda and MIchael spread the word about their fundraiser for this project. All donations made before August 1st will be 100% matched by Cuyahoga Arts & Culture Match Fund through a partnership with a new crowdfunding platform, ioby, which worked with Michael and Amanda to secure these matching funds.

Our 27th episode is recorded from Jordan’s 8th-floor, luxury apartment in North Olmsted! With a view of the gorgeous North Olmsted skyline, which features Great Northern Mall and Walmart, the boys started the episode off discussing the beer of the week, which was Sibling Revelry’s Ohio Native Festbier. The first topic of the night, our Top Five, deals with heartbreaking sports memories. Jordan, who’s not a native Clevelander, focuses on Houston teams and Tottenham Hotspur, while Jimmy and Dan give their top five saddest Cleveland sports moments. Buckle down, folks — this one gets really depressing really quickly. We then transition into the LOTL Poll of the Week, which has to do with the Browns: do you think the Brown’s look better or worse after the first two games? Around 80 percent of Facebook and Twitter followers said they feel better about the Brown’s situation after two weeks. After that, LOTL reviews the agonizing Browns’ loss to the Saints on Sunday, the disaster of Zane Gonzalez, the Josh Gordon trade, and then they preview the Browns – Jets game on Thursday night (9/20/18). We conclude by previewing some fun events in Cleveland coming up soon, including IngenuityFest, Ohio City Street Festival, and the Solon Fall Festival.

For our 26th episode, we debuted a new intro! We jump right into a discussion about our poll of the week: which holiday movie do you prefer: scary, or Christmas? The boys go over the poll results and chat about which holiday movie they prefer. Then, we do our Top Five, which was our top five favorite holiday films. Dan and Jordan went with Christmas, and Jimmy went with halloween/scary movies. After that, we preview several interesting events coming up soon in the CLE, including a local music festival in Cleveland Heights, the Eastside Cleveland Flea, the Ohio City Street Festival and IngenuityFest 2018. We close out the episode discussing that crazy Brown’s game, which saw the Browns end their losing streak, but not break their winless streak. Dan, Jimmy and Jordan discuss the pros and cons of the Browns 2018 debut, and what they think will happen in week 2 against the Saints. The boys also discuss what Dan calls the “Jekyll and Hyde Tribe,” who seem to be fluctuating up and down. LOTL talks about the Josh Donaldson trade, the erratic bullpen, and which teams are the Tribe’s biggest threat.
