This one’s personal. I know most of my blog posts have a personal flavor to them, but this one? This is different. This isn’t about my politics or media or music. This is about my life. Not a plea for sympathy—this isn’t some “my life is so hard” post. This is just the truth, and … Read more
Tonight’s show pulls no punches—literally. The entire playlist is built around some of the heaviest, loudest, most iconic albums to come out of 1992. It was a year that gave us some absolute monsters, and this setlist is nothing short of a sonic gut punch in the best way possible. We kicked things off with … Read more
Good morning, friends. Hope you’re doing alright out there. Let’s talk music for a minute—and not just any music, but the kind that sticks with you. The kind that makes you stop what you’re doing and say, “Who is this?” That happened to me recently, and it’s been bouncing around in my head ever since. … Read more
If you’ve been listening to Rolling with Scissors for a while, you know I like to feature artists who go deeper than the charts—artists who shape a mood, break form, and aren’t afraid to experiment with sound and silence. That’s why I’m excited to say that we’ll be featuring the new Bon Iver album, SABLE, … Read more
I didn’t know a damn thing about Oceans of Slumber before I played them on the show last night. They’d been hanging around the edges of my radar, but I’d never really taken the time to dive in. Then I hit play… and that voice came through—and everything stopped. I found myself asking, “Who is … Read more
What Happens If We Erase DEI? When I was in school, I had an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) every single year. From elementary through high school, it was the thing that kept me from getting completely lost in the system. Without it, I would’ve been written off like so many other disabled students—quietly pushed to … Read more
It’s Monday. I’m in the studio recording tonight’s Rolling with Scissors — and it just so happens to be Christopher Walken’s birthday. Which somehow feels fitting. There’s something about his strange rhythm, his unpredictability, that matches the emotional shape of this week’s lineup: a little wild, a little eerie, and full of tension and release. … Read more
This morning I went out for a drive—not to clear my head, but to get a damn donut. That’s it. A little sugar. A little music. A few minutes to feel human again. But like most days lately, the world decided to throw me a few reminders I didn’t ask for. While I was out, … Read more
It’s been quiet here lately—not because I’ve had nothing to say, but because life has been making a lot of noise in its own way. Not quite a week ago, everything shifted. I won’t get into the details, but I’ve been handed one of those unexpected resets that shakes up your foundation. At 46, I’m … Read more
This week’s Rolling with Scissors comes to you from a brand-new studio space—because, as life tends to do, it threw me a curveball. Last Wednesday, I found out my lease wasn’t being renewed. By Saturday, the new studio was rebuilt and (mostly) functional. Let me repeat that: full teardown, move, and rebuild in three days. … Read more
