Ah yeah!! Back like we never left! On this episode we have an in depth discussion with Ohio mainstays J. Rawls and Cas Metah. We'd be lyin' to say we weren't geeked to talk to these dudes. I believe they set the bar when it comes to hustle and work ethic. So when we found they did an EP together ("Criminal Blinded" out on Fat Beats) we had to get them on to talk about it. On the first half of the show we discuss the recording process and the inspiration behind the concept of the EP, as well as other projects from both J. and Cas. We all know J. Rawls as an producer and MC, but many don't know he is an educator as well and he shares with us how he uses music to relate to and teach his students. Edutainment at it's finest!

The second half of the show Cas Metah talks about how he stays so productive as well as his thoughts on the different scenes within hip-hop. He shares his experience on trying to break free of being typecast as a certain type of emcee.

We hope you enjoy listening as much as we enjoyed making it!!

Greetings beautiful people of planet earth! Ya boys are back at it with a heater of an episode! We were blessed to have the opportunity to chop it up with the multidisciplined homie Omega Watts. Many know of him as a producer, MC, and DJ. In addition to these talents he is also and independent art-director, graphic designer, photographer and of course avid record collector. Ohmega and Nomadik crossed paths in the early 2000's when they both lived in Portland, Oregon. Well as you'd suspect things have changed since then and we get to discuss what's going on with him and what he's up to these days. He takes us on his journey through music, graphic design,the loss of his father, marriage, fatherhood, friendship, and life! This dude is seriously oner of the most genuine human beings! We hope you are as blessed by the conversation as we were.

This is an interview I did with my mother's mother, Grandma Colleen Pitts (O'Farrell) in 6 or 7 years ago. She died on February 14, 2024, and so now I'm releasing this episode in her honor.

We discuss a variety of things—losing her husband to cancer, difficulties in families, depression, losing my dad in a car wreck, and even the blackouts of World War II.

She was a gem of a woman, and I'm excited to share a little bit of her perspective with you.

I love you, Grandma.
