I found this kid on youtube a while ago. I’m not sure when or why exactly. I must of been looking into getting a new laptop and he came into my algorithm somehow. Watched a couple of his videos and I liked the content. He just point the camera and made some edits. You could see that he wasn’t taking YouTube overly serious. He had a good amount of view, definitely making some money but YouTube wasn’t his main hustle. At least that’s what it felt like
A few days ago I was looking into Lenovo laptops and Linux and he popped back into the feed. As a programmer that’s kind of his things. I watched a couple videos just to see what he was up to, and bro was doing alright for himself. In school, working at a startup, learning a language. During which he made videos showing how he managed his time to do this. While at some point he was living out of a van(which is dope)
I don’t know what it was but maybe it was the tech he had or the cat or the unkept hair but subscribed. Something about this kid I’m just rooting for him.
Today I saw this video of him being vulnerable and I fucked with it. So I thought I’d share it with yall. It hit home for me. James rocks!

I just finished watching Andrew Schulz’s new special “LIFE” on netflix. I know that dude has been in the headline about his comments about Black women during his interview with Shzt and gigs. But personally I don’t think dude is a bad guy, certainly not a racist. I think Andrew is a guy like me and you. A guy in the know. A guy with his finger on the pulse. As a comedian should. Schulz’s is an equal opportunist offender lol everyone can get these jokes.

I found an old Jerry Hsu interview with GQ where Jerry talks about some of the origins of Sci-fi Fantasy, his style and his influences as he grow up in skateboarding watching other Pros.
An old interview but new to me. At the time of this interview Sci-Fi Fantasy wasn’t even a board company. Jerry was just making shit and putting it online. Which is what I try to do. Find something cool and share it with the people. Lately it’s been a lot more articles and videos, music and what not but I am aware originality is what people want. Shit originality is what I want.
Jerry Hsu is definitely an American original. And it’s skaters and people like Jerry show you how to carve your own path by just watching what they do because you not going to find another person like him.

I’ve been fasting since Monday so it’s only natural I start watching foodie content on youtube to torture myself and I came across Matty Matheson. I’ve seen dude for years online and in that hulu show, the bear. Never dug too deep on the guy but I like his style and tattoos.
That’s kind of myself when I see someone interesting, I see them and just watch from afar for a bit to see if it’s just an act or if they’re the real thing. Matheson has been popping up and coming across as this rugged dude that knows how to cook/actor/internet personality and messes with motorcycles.
So yesterday finally I typed his name into the ol’ YouTube search bar and a living proof interview popped up. Instantly I was like I got to see this! Living Proof hasn’t failed me yet when it comes to introducing me to interesting people and if they’re during an interview with Matheson this guy must be real and have a hell of a story. And for sure it was! Peep this.

If you’ve been tuning into the radio show, you may have picked up on some of the songs we played from Leon Thomas. Honestly I wish I could just play you the entire album “MUTT”, Leon’s sophomore album. It was a surprise to me to know that he was actually making music when I rediscovered Leon Thomas. When I saw Leon Thomas’ face I quickly realized that he was the actor on Nickelodeon that was always carrying a guitar. I believe he had played some performances on Victorious but I hadn’t heard anything as far as a personal album ever come during that time or anything after his period on Nickelodeon. Plus that was over 10 years ago at least. Leon has gone from a child actor to a full blown artist as well as a grown man. Even if he had made an album I don’t believe that it would be as soulful as MUTT is today. Artists need time to live and understand a bit of pain and love to make an album like MUTT.
This morning on February 20th, 2025 Thomas’ performance at NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert was released on Youtube. Showcasing what years of carrying around that guitar and life experience has culminated into.
WOW, Treasure in the Hills if definitely going into the library for me.
Set List“VIBES DON’T LIE”
“YES IT IS”
“MUTT”
“Breaking Point”
“Treasure In The Hills”
If you like me and you hear an artist, love their music, and instantly want to know more about them, I found an interview with the Breakfast Club from a month ago where Leon Thomas sat down and spoke about his time on Broadway and Nickelodeon, his production and his history that most of us probably aren’t familiar with.
