Son joins The Precipice of Delusion and discusses what it’s like to be deeply introverted and how he’s learned to deal with the pressures that come with being a stage performer. Why he considers himself a casual observer to his own behavior and how that’s helped keep him aligned with his values. And how important it has been for him to just keep showing up for himself. Him and Julian talk about their gratitude for not being famous people when they were young and how being an artist in todays climate has shaped their intentions. They also explore managing success and how much they really feel they could take on. Son also takes us on an exclusive journey behind the curtains of his experience smoking the venom of The Sonoran Desert Toad. And how he transcended life and accepted death through it all, and realized that it wasn't all that bad after all. Which has allowed him to step back into life (when he came to) with a fervor for experiencing more and seeing just how much more he can create through his new lens of gratitude and fearlessness. Son Little is a groundbreaking musician and his music is a perfect reflection of the journey that's brought him to this moment. We implore you to spend your day listening to his catalogue.

Freddy Giorlando is an award winning actor and producer, born and bred in New Jersey (Vinyl, Adulthood, Replica). Him and Julian sit down to talk about what growing up in Old Bridge New Jersey, where he assumed he would grow up to become a union worker. Just not the acting kind. What life was like after having a kid at 19 years old and how he decided to give up his entire youth to chase him dreams of being an actor. How having a kid at that age helped him stay on the course, because he wasn't able to be a kid with the rest of his friends. How he learned what sacrifice actually looked like, and how he became obsessed with building this thing that nobody would ever believe he could. He talks about the moment that his decision to do this went from one of irresponsibility to one that everyone was suddenly standing behind. The proof was in the pudding. He never gave up on himself. And now he has a burgeoning career as both an actor and producer in LA, his son is now 16, and he's only just getting started. Freddy is the kind of guy that you can't help but root for. And even if you don't he'll be rooting for you, because that's who he is.

I’m talking to myself this week. Felt like it was necessary to give myself and all of you guys a little check in. There’s a lot going on in my life as of late, and I’m spending some time trying to be thoughtful to the transitions occurring within me. The idea of faith has been on my mind a lot lately. More specifically, the absence of it in my life. And why? How do I learn to buy into something that is intangible? How do I let go of this belief that I am in control of everything and just live an honest life, free of the burden of that same control? What good is discipline if it you’re stuck inside of it and can’t get out. These are questions I'm asking myself and trying to navigate as I unlearn many aspects of my life that no longer feel like they're in service of my growth as a man. Through all the unresolved trauma I am trying to show up differently for myself. As a Partner, a friend, a brother, a son, a colleague and just as myself. This episode is a reflection of where I’m currently at, and how I'm choosing to redirect myself towards a better me.
