Why Do We Need Sleep?

Today I’m diving into, well actually just barely dipping my toe into, the massive creative writing project that is The SCP Foundation. I’m joined by my friend Steak who loves strange phenomena and conspiracies, to just tell her about this organization and what I found on their website. I’m by no means a professional with this stuff, there is definitely a bunch of things I missed. I highly suggest just going to the website and diving in yourself! It’s pretty wild stufffffff. https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/universe-hub

On this episode of The Neighborhood Creep I’m talking all about spiders! I’m joined by my good friend Erica who is a tarantula hobbyist that went from a fear of spiders like me, to owning over 60 live tarantulas! Listen to me attempt to explain where spiders and tarantulas lie as organisms, some interesting facts, and Erica’s impressive and effortless recollection of multiple tarantula species’ names as she gives us a look into her fascinating hobby.

Today I get a little science-ie and try and break down why exactly we need sleep and what happens during that process. There were plenty of things I missed and maybe even explained poorly, so I encourage you to look into it on your own as well. It’s interesting stuff!

Honestly, not too stoked about this one. The rain in the background made my edits to the audio very apparent but I did record this about 3 months ago and never posted so I figured why not. Hope someone enjoys! Thanks for listening nevertheless.

I randomly thought it would be a cool idea to rewatch some childhood movies that I haven’t watched SINCE I was a child. But the gag is, I’m doing a “pre-watch summary” beforehand and talking about what I remember and what I think happened. Then I’m watching the movie and coming back the second half of the episode with my review! Fun, right!?

Today I have my very first guest, my friend Razor! We talk about the difference between a fear and a phobia, how they are developed, and even share some of our rational-irrational fears. This is my first time doing a podcast with a guest so please bear with me! Any feedback you have is greatly appreciated. Thanks for listening!

Today I talk about dinosaurs! For my first time gathering research and figuring out how to present it all, I think it went pretty well. I hope you learned something new! I do however reserve the right to be wrong, as I’m not a paleontologist.

This is an introduction to my podcast, a little about me and the kinds of things I’ll be talking about in episodes to come.
