Just Hear Me Talk

Ep. 16: Tsunami Sea | Lyrical Line-Up

Listen in on another episode as Gian does a lyrical line-up for a new album that was recently released by Spiritbox called Tsunami Sea.

Ep. 15: A Letter To "The One"

Listen in on a special episode where Gian's romantic side makes one final appearance between going on a hiatus from the dating world. Things have been pretty rough in that department, as many people can attest to, so the moral of the story is to focus on the "bigger picture" and let life flow without forcing anything. Surely this letter won't bring tears to anyone's eyes.

Ep. 14: Birthday, Sickness, and Depression

Join Gian in another episode as he reflects on age, sickness, and seasonal depression colluding together shortly after turning 27 years old. There is also a moment where the state of the world is mentioned and how much it sucks for a lot of people right now. Fret not as Gian feels the pain of those going through a rough time and offers words of encouragement. Lastly, he reads an interesting mantra from one of his (already) favorite books called Single on Purpose: Redefine Everything, Find Yourself First by John Kim.

Ep. 13: Self-Love Above All

Listen in on Gian discussing words of wisdom on the topic of self-love. People often self-deprecate to the point that seeps into how they often treat others. Relationships are tarnished and only evolve into a vicious cycle all because people do not practice better habits on how to treat themselves better. There is much to take away from this episode as listeners are encouraged to take a step back and analyze their self-love meter.

Ep. 12: Feel The Rasp | Lyrical Line-Up

Ep. 10: You Are Not The A-Hole

In today's episode, Gian reads posts from the AITAH subreddit. Listen to the five handpicked posts that Gian reads and gives his two cents on, along with absolutely judging some of the write-ins with horrendous grammar. Surely there will be some comedy in this.

Ep. 9: Spotify Got Me Wrapped Up

Gian returns for another episode to discuss the famously known Spotify Wrapped. He talks through his own Spotify Wrapped and the justification for why his top songs, artists, and podcasts were ranked the way they were. This one is an ease back into the swing of things after the Thanksgiving holiday.

Ep. 8: Nothing But The Worst

Gian reads a short poem that he made which stemmed from slight frustrations whenever someone left him on delivered for days or even weeks. This episode was created in good humor and was diverted toward no particular person. Once again, do not take anything said in this episode seriously.

Ep. 7: You Live And You Learn

Listen in on another of Gian's personal reflections, specifically about how he has grown throughout his dating life and how men need to be better. He also offers advice for those who are currently single and those on the brink of wanting to end their relationship.
