Total Wore!

War! This month on High-Dere. But not before wishing Ian and Joe’s Moms Vivienne and Gayle. We love birthdays. And then our heroes go through the Wikipedia definition of War, and it’s informative to say the least. The guys realize that when you get down to it, War is a very broad reaching phrase that is valid in many different arenas and applications. And the different types of war, including Total War could be happening around us in many different ways without us even knowing they’re occurring…...

555-FRDM

This month on High-Dere, Ian and Joe decide to close out the year in style by jingling all the way through an episode of grab bag madness. They most certainly earned their way onto Santa’s naughty list. They kick things off with an apology to Tom Delonge after poking fun of Blink-182 while discussing UFO disclosure, a subject both are highly interested in. Joe provides a loose list of interesting topics to cover while Ian, per usual, does his best to keep up with the chaos. They question the leg...

This month on High-Dere, Ian and Joe stick with the quarantine in the midst of a celebration of April 20th....for NO special reason at all!!!Everyone is still in quarantine.

Self-Quarantined

This week on High-Dere, Ian & Joe self quarantine and record their first ever remote show from their separate studios as the COVID-19 virus slithers it’s way into the United States. Advised by the authorities to “self-quarantine,” we test out what could be a new remote process for the show during these unknown and strange times.

Coolidge Did It

On this month’s FaceLifted episode of High-Dere, Ian & Joe discuss death of the old and birth of the new; evolving lives, stories, entertainment and crimes that make up this crazy-ass world we exist in. Apparently Ian feels that to see his stolen stuff again would be akin to THE Disciples seeing Christ again after his death...or seeing Superman return to life after HIS death. Crazy! Then we dive into the death of creative productivity due to technical software issues and how they completely ...

On this brand spankin' new High-Dere, Ian and Joe talk about what has been going on in their lives since they were last seen in 2017...it's a lot.

#FakeNews?

In honor of newly elected President Donald Trump, we discuss the difference between mainstream and alternative media, which one is really giving us “Fake” news and how the world is starting to wake up to some pretty deep things.

Simmenem

With a 180 degree turn from the first opening, this week we talked about personas and how people choose to present themselves to the world and to those around them. Is Eminem as angry as he seems? Does Richard Simmons suffer from emotional childhood abuse? Did Joe and his band pay for Jared Leto's dinner one night in Dallas? And finally, what the hell are the Barkley Marathons?

Arnie Grape Wins an Oscar

Out of the gate, we extend our right hands to congratulate Leonardo DiCaprio (Arnie Grape) for his first Oscar win for The Revenant and with the other, we take a puff and turn the Spotlight to the Academy for snubbing African American actors. We toss ourselves into the salvage yard and discuss the infamous Netflix documentary, Making A Murderer, and if WE think Steven Avery killed Teresa Halbach. We finish out the show by questioning the motives behind murder and what a sleeping position reveals...

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes

We take a step back into the early 90s to examine television then vs today while questioning the current big business trend of corporatizing communities into artificial shells. Ian shares an interesting article which spawns our thoughts on the collective consciousness and how it's easily manipulated through the media. Before daydreaming about the future of true spiritual freedom, we get lost in the rat race of our human history and the effects that cause fatigued members of society to "exit the ...

Tainted Titty Milk

High-Dere! This week we're "hot and ready" like Little Caesar and announce the launch of our Kickstarter campaign for our short horror film, Thoughtform.

Forming a Thought

This week High-Dere is back with a vengeance, and a special guest, Martyn. Come with us in the first show of 2016 as we give everyone the low-down on what ElfTree Media has been up to in the weeks we’ve been gone; fabricating a short film, Thoughtform, based on the Olivia Mabel story heard in Ep #52. Hear us go on about our process developing the story, orchestrating the test shoot for the teaser, and compiling a top-notch Kickstarter campaign to raise our $10,000 goal.

Jedd Eye

In this week’s SPOILER FREE episode of High-Dere, we talk about our short film, 2015 as a whole, and we visit a galaxy far, far away... After an early morning viewing of Star Wars The Force Awakens, we sit down and celebrate 60 episodes by doing what we do best. Chilling and talking. That’s why you love us, and what we’ve loved about 60 episodes of the show! Starting with Tiny houses and how our trip to Texas went, we spontaneously reviewed Adele's new album 25. 3 out of 5. And then we moved on ...

Gaga Ooh La La

This week on High-Dere we look at solutions vs. band-aids and as if Marilyn Manson’s music can be considered art. Hint: Yes. In a time where the world is giving thanks, we take a look at things that are broken about our system, like the Federal Reserve, the band-aids being put on things, like surgeries or medications for a lifetime, and possible solutions to the human illness, such as viewing your own actions as those of a young innocent being. Through a battle between emotion and logic, we wish...

Il Haut

This week on High-Dere we reflect on the November 13th events in Paris, and end up not giving a shit about Ronda Rousey! On the evening of November 13th, a series of coordinated attacks were executed in Paris and, at the time of recording, claimed 139 lives. In reflection of this, we try and wrap our minds around why human beings and religious groups enact acts of violence toward other groups of fellow man…or woman. We keep it plain and simple on this week’s episode of High-Dere. But if you want...

Green Salsa

This week on High-Dere we talk about how people change, and how people change people. Have you ever heard yourself on a recording and heard a side of you that was so awakening to you that it changed some of your behaviors forever? And to have it all happen because of some Karma was just the icing on the cake for Joe. People change throughout their whole lives, and we talk about growing up and being the same person, yet different. We also bring up how weird it’s going to be to see Harrison Ford a...

Ojai-Dere

Take a walk down our own memories lanes this week as we talk about many different and awesome ways to tell and influence a story. In yet another show that has many more topics than points, we revolved around the subject of writing and stories. We go through many different types of creative outlets we’ve had in our lives so far (short films, music, theatre, screenwriting). Creativity and storytelling can come about as a craft project like Joe undertook this week, or as an 11 year old Ian who imit...
