yeah and most of them only care about the fashion and the whole mob scene with Al Capone and all that jazz meanwhile I was busy just making ends meet so there's a difference
A lot of people still struggle That never really changed
[ john's been through it a couple times with olivia. that's how he ended up working for valentina. at least now he makes enough to keep her and his son comfortable. ]
I wouldn't really compare the Depression to how people have had to struggle in the modern day but also my point wasn't that I wanted to bond over that?

Ok good point but you read a lot and people do that still
And what is a podcast if not a radio show, right?
[ when the homie has low self-esteem and you're trying to gas him up. ]

radio plays are something of a lost art
but I will conceded that some podcasts do capture the old feeling of a good play
most people listen to Rogan or that crime shit though
no subject
Loved them but they were idiots
If you want any recommendations let me know, I preferred the other kind of podcasts
no subject
he's just some guy who likes talking to people
that doesn't make him a genius
the ones like radio plays? you mean?

careful there, you're gonna piss off half the country with that kinda talk 🙂
( but he doesn't disagree. a lot of podcasts feel like they're just people talking about...nothing. )

no subject
All the podcasts I know are because of Olivia so you can thank her for the recommendations
no subject
surprisingly honest
I'll be sure to thank her then
what about movies? also shitty taste?
no subject
Huge Nicholas Cage fan and some might say that makes my taste terrible, others that its good so it's tough to say
no subject
honesty is valuable when most of the people around me are more than willing to lie
you know, I've been curious about his work but I haven't any idea where to start
from the memes, I'll probably enjoy his stuff though
no subject
If you want to watch them sometime, let me know. I'm always willing to watch Nic Cage
no subject
maybe, but that's my reality, so it's more practical to just acknowledge the fact than linger on what or why
sure
maybe something this weekend, if you've got a few hours to spare
not much prep needed this weekend
