Chapter 100 Retrospective

Well, we're finally here. What started out as a bi-weekly, zero-budget podcast hosted by an awkward stoner has evolved into a still mostly zero-budget podcast, still hosted by a somewhat less awkward stoner. But in all seriousness, it's been a wild, interesting ride. I've been able to meet and chat with people from Spain, Italy, Sweden, and Australia. I've discovered countless hours of new music. I've done crossovers and worked with people that without this platform (and the growing circle of friends) I would have never done. I made mistakes and fowled up more than once. And I would like to think I've grown as a person and understand my platform and voice better.

For the 100th chapter, I've brought back returning guest August West to do exactly what this podcast does best: smoke weed and ramble. Amongst a lot of reflection, we also ruminate on Sephora shipments, a tenuous connection to Comic Book Men, tackling the pandemic one chapter at a time, where exactly Curb Your Enthusiasm falls on the spectrum of stoner comedies, the best protection against sound: air, forcing celebrities to listen to doom, Genghis Tron on top of a mountain, and how to say Cave In.

The intro music for this chapter was put together by Matt C. White and the closing music is the DOD theme presented in full for the first time, presented by Ken Wohlrob of Eternal Black and Joe Kelly of Suburban Elvis Studios.

Thank you to everyone else who has been involved in some capacity, whether it was as a guest, artist, merch maker, or for helping me out along the way.
