Badon’s upset this week, especially over us meeting once every other week so David can study for a test — NERD. We ramble about the Vin Diesel memes, a vegan conundrum, and read short and slightly sexy screenplay written by one of our hosts.

Nuno gets performative and introduces the episode this week. David brings up the Israel & Palestine conflict and we somehow go from that, to Yoohoo, to factory farming. We then have a talk about human trafficking and the abuse of the foster care system. We also touch on The Conjuring, people in Venezuela who grind for gold in online games to earn real-life pennies on the dollar, and Bryan's story about a playdate in a pink room.

David opens up the podcast today with a conversation on our levels of intelligence. Are people as smart and/or deserving of praise as we think we are? Then we talk a bit about Bo Burnham's Netflix special, Brie Larson not being liked by her costars, and Impractical Jokers. We also talk about books, 80s films, and Bryan's love of Grease 2. Nuno then tells us about his recent IT Helpdesk interview where his interviewer seemed to be very curious about what kind of animal Nuno would want to be. We end by talking about the pay rates of teachers by state and their happiness levels.

In this episode of As We Digress, we have a long conversation on rock climbing, MMA workouts, and the expense of gyms. Bryan then tells us a couple stories of his old catering days for a wedding. We also talk a bit about musician and YouTuber Corpse and his wonderfully deep voice; and the discrepancy between the prices, quality, and quantity of food at high end (pretentious) restaurants compared to everyday ones. After talking about Nuno's favorite actress Margot Robbie and her interaction with Jim Carrey, we talk about the pretentiousness of avant-garde and high art. And we close with a talk on a couple Jake Gyllenhaal films: Velvet Buzzsaw and Nocturnal Animals.

This week, we talk a lot about UFO's and the existence of aliens. How far does the belief in aliens date back to? Are the people on "Ancient Aliens" getting somewhere? Somehow, we go from aliens, to Julius Caesar. We then reminisce for awhile on our grade-school, and high-school days.

Nuno talks to us about his new favorite director Bong Joon-Ho and his film Memories of Murder along with other impressive South Korean films. We talk about Amazon's "Invincible" and how great it is, feral kids, Nuno's issues with AMC and The Walking Dead, and some old sordid tales of Bryan's. David also brings up the idea of writing stories and bringing them onto the podcast. We also discuss urban exploration and the existence of ghosts. This leads Badon to show us a YouTube video from "Finders Beepers History Seekers" where they saw...something. They're great, check them out.

This week we ramble about tattoos, sexuality, religion, Chauvin, and the possible crumble of the human species. Fun stuff ;) Bryan tells us a story about a "high time" at a hot tub and we also get into a tangent on Demi Lovato and her issues with froyo -- which Badon is very upset about.

This week, we talk about the murder of George Floyd and the ongoing trial which Nuno has been watching. As well as the murder itself, we talk about bystanders and the cowardice expressed by groups of onlookers against a crime in progress. Badon fills Nuno in on his firing, Bryan fills us in on digital blackface, and David proposes another trip to Massachusetts. Badon calls out Nuno when he brings up writing together again. We read David's story intro. Music: Aerobatics in Slow Motion by TeknoAXE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfaXFyNOi_M&feature=youtu.be Cruising the Night Sky by TeknoAXE https://youtu.be/EsbzPHz_scY
The three of us recorded this episode back to back with last week's episode so again, forgive the audio change. This lengthy episode is essentially a rant about Badon's recent firing. After a week of working part-time as "digital content writer", Badon gets fired via email. Apparently, 20 hours of work wasn't enough time to make him as skilled at the job as an employee with two years of experience...who knew?! We then end with a short discussion on loss opportunities and relying on outside elements when creating art.

After a month, three of us get together to record in Bryan's make-shift studio, so forgive the audio change. We go over Bryan's 23andMe results and talk briefly on religion and college requirements. This leads us into discussing the rights of trans children, social justice, Alex Jones, and peoples' willingness to believe whatever they read online. We touch upon the misleading significance of the "unemployment rate" being low and our former president.

After a long hiatus, we're back with a vengeance -- we get into recent news, stocks, and a little bit of conspiracy stuff because why not? We talk about the recent surge in GameStop stock and how volatile stocks are in general. One of the biggest bits in music news surrounds Marilyn Manson -- Badon's favorite artist -- and his numerous abuse allegations. This leads us to discuss the separation of art from the artist. We even touch on fate, karma, computers, college, and new jobs.

We continue from our conversation last week about aliens with “Childhood’s End”; an Arthur C. Clarke novel about the invasion of a seemingly peaceful alien race. David takes a sharp detour and brings up Badon’s 23andMe results. AWD talks about the advancements that come with societal progress. We then have a long conversation about student loans and how colleges/universities scam their student body.

The AWD crew is wearing headphones for the first time and is trying to get used to them. Nuno brings up 90 Day Fiancé and Badon tells the group about a few popular couples on the show. Then we have some gaming, space, and monolith talk; this leads us to discussing the aftermath of a hypothetical impact on a several-mile wide comet.

This is a haunting filled episode of As We Digress. We talk about Bryan’s past experiences and how such experiences can affect how we interact with the world. Badon talks his irrational fear of “The Nun”. We then talk about film adaptations of video games and how horribly they’re often received. Badon gets a bit passionate about The Girl in the Spider’s Web and Silent Hill.

This week on AWD, we start off talking about "American Murder: The Family Next Door" the Netflix documentary; the mind of Chris Watts and how people's analysis of body language gives insight into a person's feelings. The case also brought up an interesting topic of consideration in a relationship; how our treatment of our partner affects them. Badon then brings up "Carmel" another Netflix documentary that covers the mysterious murder of Maria Marta Garcia Belsunce. And then we discuss the destruction of modern cinema. We finish up this week's pod with a talk on "The Keepers" and Netflix's constant attempts to screw us over.

As We Digress is back yet again, and we're back for good! We talk about the 2020 election (considering we recorded this on November 4th) and the popular arguments used against candidates. We then have a bit of fun and talk about some crazy conspiracies and Jared Leto's cult. As I write this, our new president has been chosen. To the listeners of this podcast, readers of this bio, and all the rest...please be respectful to one another. Whether your candidate won, or your candidate lost, let's just be good to one another. Let's not breed more hate and discourse.

This week we got together to talk about our top five favorite movies that involved a pandemic/contagion/disease. After our lists, we finish the episode with some conversation on books we’ve read including a messed up autobiography that Badon read about a victim of abuse who wanted to tell their no-holds-barred story.

We've returned from another hiatus more motivated than ever. Badon and David talk about their cancelled trip to Japan and their plans to become chess masters. Badon then talks about another tale of woe as a dishwasher involving his cursing out of a chef which leads to him trying to recruit Nuno as a coworker. Bryan tells us about how he's been writing his new EP and we ponder the idea of designing merch. David talks about becoming a Twitch streamer so look out for him in the future. And next week, we're gonna have another "Top 5 Movies" podcast; top five favorite disease/contagion related films.

We’re back from our hiatus — for now — to record our first episode in a several weeks. It’s a quarantine edition of AWD and the four of us are on Discord chatting on our webcams. We talk about the global pandemic we’re currently dealing with, politics and the election, and Tiger King. We also talk about Santa Claus and the surprising tradition of “Black Pete” and question how it still exists.
