Ep. 235: X Marks the Simulation
Tony’s first full day off school? Spent in a music-fueled frenzy until 4AM! Meanwhile, Mike earned a day off and soaked in the Denver Art Museum like a classy gent. 🎨🎧
We talk:
Album update: first song done ✅, live shows coming 🎤, and 10 unreleased tracks dropping all summer long ☀️
Korean soap operas are WILD right now. Trust us.
Pigeon-guided missiles. Yes, that was real. 🐦💣
The weird and ancient origins of the symbol “x”
Radiation exposure and why you might glow with curiosity
Could we ever run out of music? Not if math has anything to say about it 🎶📊
Simulation theory: Are we all just Sims with better graphics?
Swearing: Every culture does it. Let’s f***ing talk about why.
Tony’s debate-watching confession and a Graham Hancock vs. Flint Dibble showdown 🧠💥
Elon vs. Trump: Beef of the Billionaires
AI musicians… is Tony out of a job soon?
That Japanese soldier who never stopped fighting the war. For real.
Why maps are lying to us
Aerogel. LOOK. IT. UP.
And quantum mechanics makes a strong case that… we’re probably in a simulation.
Cheers!

Episode 229: The Avery Jacob Frequency
It’s Friday night in Colorado, the weather’s going haywire, and everyone’s battling a chest cold (forgive the occasional cough!). But that didn’t stop us from sitting down with the powerful rapper, bassist, songwriter, frontman, teacher, and free thinker—Avery Jacob.
Tony and Avery quickly discover a mutual connection through Denver drum phenom Alex Armstrong—turns out it really is a small world.
In this episode, we dive into deep conversation about creativity, purpose, and the art of teaching the next generation. Avery opens up about his creative process, the key to making timeless music, and what fuels his drive. We also explore the spiritual side of music, staying grounded through life’s chaos, and the value of flexibility in chasing fulfillment.
Then we get into Avery’s thoughts on neonatalism, his fear of snakes, and the great philosophical debate: can you separate the artist from the art? Oh—and the most important question of all (at least to Avery): what’s his favorite cheese? Tune in to find out.
Another episode in the books, and we’re stoked to share it with you. Avery Jacob is a force, and it’s always an honor having him on the show.
Cheers,
m&t

Below is an excerpt from DJ Matt Cassidy’s website:
“I play feel good music that elicits a feeling in me. I pride myself in the ability to transition that energy to the audience which generates a unique experience that heightens the senses.”
In a world filled of limitless media, DJ Matt Cassidy prides himself in the art of discovering new sounds/music that will keep him sounding different from the act before or after him. He has been heavily circulating the Denver music scene as an independent act for over 20 years. Staying true to his urban roots, his sets pay homage to the artists who have inspired him throughout his career. His performances dominate stages, with original productions and unique edits that leave audiences with nothing left to be desired.
