  • American Groove - #86 Chronicles of La Tacos
    2024/11/20

    A tangy, crunchy, and wild motherfucking journey to the taco shack. We dove deep into the butthole... I mean world of Tacos. Kicking it off Taco John's potato olé, apple grande (has cheddar cheese on it) is making a come back . To debating on the upscale side of Chinese takeout. Of course what's the tea on Paris Hilton’s epic “Simple Life” food deliveries. Listen and if you're like us, and are into late-night burrito cravings. Looking forward to fall, for the caramel apple fudge like it’s a spiritual experience. We got you.

    We ain't done son. The love for munchies turbocharged our quirkiest comfort foods experiences. Why they hold such a special place in our hearts? It can be your hometown Chinese joint. Or even that perfect blend of spicy nacho cheese. A way to think of it is "food" is the universal glue holding our stoned urges together. Sit back, spark up, and enjoy this savory meets sweet, cause fall is here and we are living for it.

  • American Groove - #85 Dijon Pretzel Jives
    2024/11/19

    Man, next-level random. mind-fuckers n' amazing flavor combos. We start off vibing about meat sticks and mustard, no Dijon, or spicy brown? Then spiralling into this wild idea about what Jesus would be like in the modern world. Think of, Cheechified robes, Android phones, and definitely driving a beat-up Corolla. Trust us, when we say this most realistic depiction of modern day Jesus. Oh, and did we mention the Louis? Just your friendly pug reminder.

    Then we hit warp speed into political conspiracies of course. Voting weirdness into the direction of French silk pie? It's like politics meets dessert, meets existential crisis! All rolled into one cosmic joint ready to be smoked, baby. Jive till you groove, light up, and let the chaos wash over you. Can't stress it, to say you’re gonna want to be here for the vibes. Peace n' nostalgia meets politics, oh yeah!

  • American Groove - #74 Stoned-Strained meditation
    2024/11/12

    I found myself exploring the meditative world, by going to a Meet-up. With chairs outnumbering attendees. the scene was set for a session that would be anything but typical; Portuguese in this case. I counted chairs, and waited for the meditation to begin. I was amazed by the tranquility of the setting. Even the dog attending took to meditation, curling up for a cozy nap. Awesome experience that wasn't just about silence or the meditation practice itself. Rather about the unexpected joys and communal quirks. Making it memorable, and so worthwhile you want to do it again.

    Diving deeper, we expand into cultural insights. Like the contrast between European land ownership norms. Also, with Native American communal land practices. Being blown away by the culture differences. We spice things up with some tea aboutReese Witherspoon's business savvy. And our personal movie favorites of course. Mixing meditation, and blending in pop culture with a cherry on top. This blend of meditation misadventures and cultural mind fucks offers a unique twist. On finding peace in modern bullshit... I mean media. Showcasing comedy woven through our attempts to connect, reflect and relax. Namastay, shalom, and may peace be with you.

  • American Groove - #82 Rocky Horror Revelations Show
    2024/11/05

    We embark on a nostalgic and journey to do the tiem warp with "The Rocky Horror Picture Show". Exploring why this cult classic continues to captivate audiences across the globe. Karissa and I discussed our first encounters with the film. Pointing out it's unique charm that demands group viewings rather than solo experiences. We laughed about the absurdity of the storyline. And how the film's community viewings turn into vibrant, interactive events.

    Of course we veer into a broader discussion. About the role of movies in cultural expression, and societal norms during the 1970s. We delved into how films like "The Rocky Horror Picture Show". Served as a subtle rebellion against societal constraints. Blending horror, comedy, and risqué elements to challenge, and entertain. Our chat is filled with personal stories, reflections on societal changes as well. And the celebration of the film's enduring impact on pop culture. Join us for this lively exploration of cinema's wild side, and the lasting appeal of a film that broke all the rules.

  • American Groove - #80 Politics, P*%n, & Salami
    2024/10/25

    Delving into the complexities. Of car maintenance, and the hidden costs that surprises many vehicle owners. We shared our personal moments. It's about the unexpected expenses, like Dave's convertible tops and tire replacements. Illustrating the broader theme, of financial surprises in everyday life. Opening the discussion up to bigger societal and political reflections. Where we mix humor n' insight. Being french critique's for a moment. Hearing the political speeches, and the confusing repetitive banter. Often found in modern discourse, and holy shit the lizard people are real!

    We transitioned (the non trans type) from personal financial woes, and oh vey's. To a lively discussion on current political figures, always a blast. Enjoying a spirited debate on the impacts of political decisions on our daily life's. Throughout the ole' episode, the intercourse... I mean interplay between personal experiences, and broader societal issues. Invites all to reflect on how the personal is often political. Hey, were here to offer a perspective. Possibly an idea worth listening to, all you got do is sit back light it up, and get groove'n thru the experience.
