Scott Smith returns to talk about all kinds of things, primarily with curiosity as to how different eras of music are viewed through people of varying generations. With my longest episode yet, I talk with Scott once again about a large variety of topics including way more than what is seen in the episode title. This episode is deeply routed in concepts of psychology and philosophy with many talks about our natural, subconscious functions as human beings, the rapid advancement of everyday technology, music through the ears of the many, and the autonomous functionality of life amongst micro-organisms. Come with us on our journey, and thanks again for listening!

Just wanted to check in with you guys and let you know what's been going on and what's to come along with a ramble. Simple and short episode this time around. I also have a brief tangent about my experience with online friendships and relationships and how they are indeed possible to maintain. More guest episodes coming soon! (Apologies for the rough audio here and there, I didn't have any pop filters set up today and I couldn't hear myself during this episode because I'm switching out some equipment, things should improve in future episodes, thank you for putting up with it) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

In this episode I talk with my cousin and longtime family friend who is a fellow music lover, musician, cyclist, and deep thinker. We delve a little into memory lane and discuss the bitter-sweetness of remembering the past (or lack of memory) while additionally discussing the missing facts in our modern world and the resulting chaotic conformity of those who mistaken opinions/beliefs for the definitive truth. Additionally we tackle a variety of topics involving the vastness of space and the known universe, creative roadblocks that plague our cluttered minds, faulty automobiles and much more!

In this episode, I talk about my 10 favorite music releases that came out of the treacherous year of 2020 along with a variety of honorable mentions. While 2020 was one of the worst years in recent memory, I can't help but notice that it was a fantastic year for new music, it seems that so many artists have given it their all as of recent and it has to be recognized and commended. Also find out which band has finally managed to overtake Interpol as my favorite band ;) Happy New Year to my listeners! Here's to a much better year moving forward. Artists & Releases Mentioned: Top 10: 1. The Pineapple Thief - Versions of the Truth 2. Muzz - Muzz 3. Deftones - Ohms 4. Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher  5. Jaye Jayle - Prisyn 6.

In this episode I talk with another good friend of mine from School of Rock and a fellow bandmate from a newer music project called Grindstone. Eli Froment is a fantastic guitarist and a fascinating deep thinker of a musician with never ending, skilled endeavors in music. It's been an honor to work with him thus far and it was a pleasure to have him on the podcast. Content-wise, most of our discussion in this episode is driven towards recent video game releases, next generation gaming technology, and ramblings about music, musical habits, and music experiences. Apologies for the sudden increase in volume about 70% through the episode, it happened when I had to restart the recording for technical reasons and there wasn't much I could do on the spot to correct it but tweak the levels where I could, be weary of that volume spike and here's hoping I don't blow your ears out. (This episode contains occasional explicit language).

Welcome to Season 2 of Dane's World! Being the first episode of the new season, I thought it was time to move the podcast to the next level with the introduction and ongoing inclusion of guest speakers. This is something I've wanted to do since the podcast started but haven't had the technical means to make it happen. Finally, I am in a place to where I can have guests regularly on the podcast. Today's guest is Jace Kimbrell, an amazing friend from school of rock and a fellow musician/bandmate in our current project 'Formalities'. Jace is an extremely talented guitarist/vocalist and one of the greatest people I have had the honor of meeting and playing music with. As my current biggest supporter, I thought I'd give him the honors of being my first guest in this new evolution of the podcast. Stay tuned for more guests in the near future, and thank you for watching!  (Sorry for the small amount of audio issues throughout this episode, I can only mix these guest episodes on the spot while recording so it may be a little rough around the edges until I get the hang of things.)

In this episode I dig into the concept of hatred and ask pressing questions about why we hate as humans, what creates a hateful mind, and how hatred may be a more passive and natural experience than many may think. Lots of talks about the distinction between positivity and negativity and when one or the other is appropriate along with the important balance that should be struck between the two.

In this return from hiatus, I discuss a sociological concept known as the Dramaturgical Model (developed by Erving Goffman). Simply put, the theory paints life and the social interactions within it as that of a theatrical production. I first learned about this theory in my Sociology textbook for college and found it not only fascinating but strangely aligned with how I have viewed my own life for a very long time. Feel free to take a listen to find out more. Thank you!
