WHY I FEEL LIKE A COMPLETE FAILURE

There are only so many podcasts a person can watch. Religious people will say that you just need to read the Bible and pray more. Meditation teachers will say that you just need to meditate more. Gym people will say that you just need to lift weights more. There are only so many things a person can do to distract themselves. Inevitably, the pain always finds it's way back.  I am a total failure. A complete and utter failure. I went back to school and got a Master's degree to close a gap on my resume, and got myself back in to my career field. Then the pandemic came along and put another gigantic gap right back on my resume. I failed to close that gap in enough time to save my relationship. I could have gone to work part time at McDonald's or Disneyland, instead I spent 3-4 years building a YouTube channel under the assumption that the channel would pay out significantly more over time.

SUBSCRIBE TO THE POP PUNK RADIO YOUTUBE CHANNEL TO HELP US GROW

Episode 23 is our fourth "Bubblegum & Pop Rocks" playlist.

Bands and artists in this playlist include:

The War In Kids, Kid Vision, Jason Furlong, Tom MacDonald, CandyLion, Biffers, Mutant Monster, The Home Team, Havoc Faction, Outloved, As Time Fades, Side Project, Misery!, All Along, Lupopunk, Keep This Up, Enso Amina, Crashing Waves, Storm the Bay

Features and discussions include:

-Review of Nearsighted by Kid Vision. Fans of pop-punk / hip-hop along the lines of MGK or Jason Furlong might want to check this one out.

-Many of the songs in this week's playlist were requests from our listeners or the artists themselves. The requests may have been made weeks or possibly months ago but we never said we were quick. We do try to honor as many requests as possible but we also have themes each week. So some songs may end up being pushed back if we have another playlist in mind for that particular song.

-Brazilian athlete Felipe Nunes is possibly one of the most inspirational skateboarders I have ever seen. His video segment in Thrasher Magazine's "Limitless" makes me look back on the two years of athletics that I lost to depression following a major knee injury and say to myself "what were you thinking?" Felipe lost both of his legs at the knees when he was young but that hasn't stopped him from becoming a Professional Skateboarder with the Birdhouse team. Check out his video on YouTube if you're in need of some inspiration as you won't find it included in the Spotify playlist.

-Support the bands and artists that you enjoy. The world can be a negative place sometimes. A little support and encouragement goes a long way. The Beatles didn't happen overnight.
