Buzzed Conversations

Episode 65. It's been a while. It's been a long while. Not only have the boys not recorded as often as usual, the routine of writing descriptions has become foreign. Listen to the episode to find out what on earth was discussed!

Episode 64. With Chris having been on a podcast listening spree of his own, he presents a concept for him and Jason to dig into. This concept is the deeper meanings artists have beneath the surface of their music. From Kanye to Pink Floyd, Kendrick Lemar to Paramore, the boys peel back the layers about these subtle messages behind the tunes we all know and love.

Episode 63. Following up on our last episode, we had another chat with the boys of A Less Sh!tty Monday to talk about what leads people to start a podcast, the dichotomy format, and a bunch of other stuff. Check out more episodes from both podcasts!

Episode 62. For the first time ever on Buzzed Conversations, Chris and Jason did a collaborative episode with the creators of A Less Sh!tty Monday podcast! This episode will be a little different than what you're used to hearing on Buzzed Conversations, as it's actually an episode from their podcast. Check it out here and then head right over to pardyanddanse.com to give their other episodes a listen!

Episode 61. This podcast has been a bit absent in the past few weeks. Many changes are being made to Bafustago and it's progress, as well as it's relationship with SOSICO and the production of Sessions. This is nothing to be alarmed about though! The usual crew is here to catch everyone up in this micro-episode, and provide information about what's been going on, and why the podcast hasn't been on it's normal release schedule. No need to worry! Just tune in to this brief explanation if you've been curious!

Episode 60. Blass89 and his collaborating group of musicians sit down with Chris for SOSICO Sessions. They discuss the journey from a somewhat reserved lifestyle to a heavy, high energy, hip-hop entity. After the interview, Chris and Jason talk about the emotions that go into music writing and performing, and the differences between recording music and performing it. Also, check out the video performance by Blass and the band over on SOSICO's youtube channel!

Episode 59. During a much needed break, the Bafustago crew decided to put together an episode without Chris, primarily just to see if they could pull it off. This episode dates the day after the Game of Thrones series finale, and naturally the discussion follows a path about movies and television. The group discusses finales in general, and the efforts of producers to do fan service while also staying true to their product.

Episode 58. In this very unique episode of SOSICO Sessions, Chris undergoes a new challenge as he must improvise nearly the entire conversation to keep up with the fascinating characters of the band Zoink Zulag and the Galactic Shag. It's a fun one, so be sure to also check out the video of their performance!

Episode 57. Our good friend Scott aka Newtral released "Butterflies", his newest album! We attempted another live stream and listening party as we had done previously for episode 20. This time we had more success getting things to work (still not perfect but hey, that's the Bafustago way). This episode is different from most, as you'll be listening to the full discussion from the live stream, including the songs from the album. Head to our youtube channel if you'd like to see the video version!

Episode 56. Our resident WWE expert, Zach, joins the fray for his 6th episode, and recalls his experiences from visiting Wrestlemania! Listen as the group discusses the ins and outs of the event!

Episode 55. Jesse The Tree and the Tree People bring a new element to the SOSICO Sessions interview as they open up a box of props and ramp up the difficulty for Chris to focus. He nails it, as usual, and gets some great responses out of the band to questions about their origins, their future plans, and their ideal superpowers. Be sure to check out their 3 song performance filmed on location in conjunction with the interview by visiting SOSICO on youtube!

Episode 54. Zach returns to the conversation with a wealth of knowledge regarding the Mandela Effect. The boys discuss the bizarre human tendency to collectively believe false truths, and learn that there are many more examples of this phenomenon than most people realize. The conversation turns towards alternate universes and the group revisits their self-constructed paranoia about their discoveries.

Episode 53. For this Sessions interview, Chris talks with Knellz about his not-so-serious modeling career, his process when writing songs, performing his songs live, first CD purchases, and Linkin Park. Jason and Bre join the conversation after the interview to wrap it all up with a brief chat about finding new music to listen to.

Episode 52. The crew gets a little deep and serious (for a couple minutes) while discussing society's reaction to scandals. Should we separate "bad guys" from their work when stories break about them, or should we shun them entirely? As usual, the conversation branches off, this time regarding new music and our innate human ability to prejudge new artists without giving them a chance. Enjoy!

Episode 51. Chris welcomes BKLYN Lo for this 3rd installment of SOSICO Sessions and while the interview still covers music, it turns into sharing some fun personal experiences, particularly involving the U.S. - Canada border.

As we arrive at episode 50, the four founders reminisce about the podcast up until now. In order to try to remember some of the good times, Chris creates a little game for the group to play. Everyone tries to guess what each of the first 49 episodes were about given no information other than the obscure, and at times seemingly meaningless episode titles.

SOSICO Sessions with Bafustago continues in this second interview! Chris dives into the world of some boys who just love to make music together, and he uncovers some deeper stories from the guest of SOSICO Sessions Episode 2: Bochek! Chris and Jason wrap it all up with some thoughts after the recording!

After years of gaming on PS4, Chris and Jason finally decided to take a leap and try out mouse and keyboard, making the switch over to PC. The boys talk about what they expected before the change, and what they experienced once they actually went through with it. One could only describe the feeling of setting down the controller and moving with WASD as "waking up from a coma" as you watch your in-game character stumble around as if they forgot how to communicate with their own limbs. Enjoy!

The boys are working on a new show with their friends over at Sosico! In this episode, Chris interviews Spocka Summa just before a live performance (video available on Sosico's site} and then the boys wrap it all up with some random chatter like usual!

Occasionally the boys put very little thought into a topic for an episode. This is one of those times. However, a conversation ensues as always, covering items like "choose your own adventure" stories, mobile game gimmicks, and more!
