Shawn recently recorded this new track in the pits of his tomb. In this track, we experiment with sounds. Music is a wonderful medium in which to express yourself. that being said a lot of music comes off as repetitive. lets try new things. there's more than one movement, skip to 21:00 for the good good. enjoy...or don't...

QTWN1 Update on Stuff?

Mon, 25 Jul 2022 22:46:06 GMT

Hello there! I hope all is well. so I decided to run an experiment on myself. I gave up watching "news" and "news-related content. i took the path of least resistance and no longer "clicked" on articles or videos containing new related information for such sources as New channels, late-night shows, youtube channels, and new associated websites. Its been a bumpy ride, especially in the beginning, but feeling stronger now. got some cool episodes coming up, of personal voyages and would love to just share them so, as always reach out to me at

QTWN1 Story Time! Be Nice even tho your Pissed

Thu, 14 Jul 2022 00:02:51 GMT

Have you ever found yourself being held back by forces outside of your control and demanded that you can somehow make them to your advantage? Have you ever been told that you cant go home? have you ever worked a job for free when you are hurting for money? This is a simple anecdotal story from my perspective but maybe it's a side you should hear. Treat everyone with love and respect and it will be ok.

QTWN1 Like, Ccomment, Subscribe!

Sat, 21 May 2022 18:50:58 GMT

Well, Well, Well let's see how hypocritical I can get in one breath. "like, comment, subscribe!" is the call to arms of the youtube generation. On the surface and to the ears this sounds, harmless and fun. It helps feed the algorithm to what is popular at the moment and can be very beneficial to the content creators and artists. like anything in life moderation is vital, when blasted after every single video with this phrase it seems more harmful than beneficial, especially for the fan/viewer. Constantly being told, sometimes using empathy "triggers" as means by which to solicit action. On a large scale, it can feel like brainwashing. When thoughts follow encouraging you to abide like "it's the least I can do," before you know it you get a notification every two seconds reminding you to check back in. don't miss anything! fear of missing out becomes an echo in your head. let's talk about this. is this what is best for us? notifications constantly reminding us to come back like a drug that can actually talk. commenting can be a beautiful tool of communication on large and small scales. scroll through any comment thread on any large channel and witness the amount of hate and anger being thrown around. Let's talk about this? is this the best way? I love Youtube and use it multiple times a day. i have had to train myself around the toxic loops and red flag areas. So again let's talk about it. afthepodcast@gmail.com

QTWN1 Why would Walking benefit you?

Sat, 30 Apr 2022 22:00:01 GMT

You know every once and a while you might find yourself doing something positive unintentionally. Walks have been fundamental in the development of my personality, observations, and hobbies. Growing up in an area that encourages walking for multiple reasons has its perks as well, by means of which I fell in love with the activity over time to now where it's a weekly activity for me. Not only are there numerous health benefits, but there are also numerous mental benefits to walking as well. Come take a listen and see what you agree with. Challenge yourself to go out a couple of times a week for a simple walk and share your experiences.

AF 29 Let's talk about Anxiety

Sat, 23 Apr 2022 16:20:21 GMT

Welcome back friends, another awesome talk between our friend Kerem and myself. This week we took a dive into Anxiety and all its many shapes and forms. Most of us have a very stereotypical view of what being anxious looks like typically the "on edge" person, gritting their teeth while their hands are sweaty and heart pounding. In reality, it can come on more quietly in the form that you might not recognize as anxiety symptoms. In this episode, we talk about the lesser-known symptoms and how we have been affected. Through learning and understanding, one can build the foundation they need to overcome the uncontrollable.

QTWN1 Men should Cry more

Fri, 25 Mar 2022 20:08:32 GMT

New day, new time of year, new podcasting platform, and quite possibly a whole new Shawn. Hello friends, very excited for the next chapter in this journey to unlocking the knowledge of "why we are the way we are." New to Acast and proud to give it a little look-see and tell. Spring has sprung in the north and with that means new outdoor activities and more physical actions. Today I wanna start by slowly bringing it back to a standard routine of uploading and see if growth can actually happen. I had some personal growth over the past couple of weeks, found myself able to actually cry again. For so long I was shut off and afraid to feel, and through continuing efforts, I have finally made a breakthrough, listen on to hear what. Thank you so much for everything, reach out to me at afthepodcast@gmail.com

AF 28 "untitled" but empowering talk

Sun, 06 Mar 2022 22:08:26 GMT

Here we are again. It's been enough time so I can say with a full heart that I'm over it and this episode is an afterthought. Still important enough to share with others tho. so many of us are silenced due to fear of losing our jobs, where we don't speak up. Economic standing has so much to do with how we hold and deliver ourselves. Do I have bills to pay? do I have mouths to feed? how easy is it for me to find work in the same income bracket that suits me? There are thousands of reasons why we don't speak up. your not alone, you can speak here with me afthepodcast@gmail.comIWWhttps://www.iww.org/brief history lessonhttps://archive.iww.org/about/official/StJohn/1/

AF 26 Speaking Up For Yourself And Empathy

Sat, 29 Jan 2022 17:41:24 GMT

Speaking up for yourself can be hard, especially if you are afraid of letting someone down. This week my dear friend Kerem joins me in my small but large victory in telling my job I won't give them any more time. Some of us can get lost in"the grind" and the "hustle" for more money. and for a lot of us, this grind feels like being in prison, surrounded by closing in walls, wherein your free time all you can do is sit and watch TV. Beating ourselves up constantly, over not working hard enough at our hobbies and passions. This podcast sometimes feels like an overwhelming wall of work that after working all week I don't have energy and time for.

In our hustle and bustle culture, these days it's fairly simple to find yourself dissatisfied. With constant reminders thrown at you every which way, that your life "could" be better. Social media and pop culture thrive on the idea that "you too" can be like the rest of the rich and famous.
