"It's not the expression of the emotion, it's the lack of control that I don't want," Phil. "Well, if you could control it, then you'd probably keep it under lock all the time, cuz you've got things to do, and they're inconvenient" Sarah. A conversation between two people with possibly the most inconvenient relationship...ah the irony. Also, have you noticed, the most passionate male outbursts often occur during the big game? Uncontrollably! Spontaneously! Ah the irony... Stay tuned for part 2, ...

Sarah gets mad at Phil for a few things i.e. saying their relationship is non-linear, and preventing her from "dating." They discuss living in different worlds, and the challenge of expressing different layers of Sarah and Phil which could be called the "track stack" if you're a recording engineer. So, how to live a domestic life, and express the other tracks. The answer seems to be, make the leap and keep going cuz the grass isn't greener on the other side. "There's still some mystery, even for...

Exploration of the parallel plot between Sarah n Phil and author Kahlil Gibran with his beloved Mary Haskell. Maybe yin and yang truly are the most creative combo because many duos share a similar ( often unwritten ) story. Why love someone and choose not to "be" with them? This episode is sprinkled with excerpts from the book "Beloved Prophet" which is the correspondence and journal entries of Mary and Kahlil. Until recently, it was unknown that she played an intimate role in the editing, writi...

Reflections from their trip to Lake Powell where Phil n Sarah hosted an Own It show. Their stage was the deck of a houseboat, their lights were tiki torches.

As scientific as this title sounds, the episode is anything but precise. Think of it as a treasure hunt. There are gems, but we gotta dig. Recorded 2 days after the wedding of Sarah's oldest daughter, new thoughts on monogamy arise. How do you respond to your mistakes? as an artist? as a partner? When is the final decision made about success or failure? When is an art piece or a relationship really done? Sarah and Phil decide it's not so bad, being one another's experiment.

This is an episode of full disclosure. In the true spirit of Own It, Sarah n Phil reflect on their sexual relationship. Towards the end, they are met with tragic truths and they stay in the conversation together. As sex can often be, this is an episode about trust. Trust in each other and trust in the listener. "Are you nervous about the release of it?" Phil asks Sarah. To which she responds, "No, it couldn't be any worse than what people say about me anyway." Does it all just come down to wheth...

Another "song story" experiment collaboration between Sarah n Phil. Since so many people can't make it to the ARC show where Sarah will be reading, we decided to put it on the podcast.

We pulled Harvey the Bus up onto the sidewalk where USARA was hosting "Last Chance BBQ". We talked with people about recovery revolution and galactic revolution which happens to be the theme of our next show.

Two years ago, we met Menace. At the time, he had over 150 tracks recorded on Youtube. He gave his first stage performance at Own It, and had the whole crowd on their feet. We talked with him about how to let go of addiction as the muse for the music, and what comes after it. Own It has always been about evolution of language, truth and art. Menace embodies all of these. As one of the only rappers in Vernal, Utah, Menace obviously has the passion to keep making music, no matter what his circumst...

Recorded outside of LabeledFest, this episode is a few snippets recorded in Harvey the Bus. We talked with Shawn McMillan, Charlie, and Grey Thomas about politics (which is weird for us), mental illness and how to medicate that. We talk about what it means to be a recovered slam poet with Grey. We find that this episode captures a good cross section of LabeldFest put on by Brian Higgins, a pretty cool event with lots of neat films and shit and stuff.

Sarah is reading a book called How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and How to Listen So Kids Will Talk. Somehow this leads Sarah and Phil to talk about the recent trend of micro-dosing and Ayahuasca because Phil's intuition has been telling him to check that stuff out. In an unexpected turn the conversation became quite revealing. Phil talks about feeling blocked and how scary it can be to trust your intuition when it's directing you to something that is taboo in your culture. This episode was recor...

We talk about hedonism and the value of doing whatever you want, the dark and the light of it. This guy did whatever his heart wanted to the destruction of himself, and has come out the other side to where it is quiet and he has nothing to prove. He reads an excerpt from his personal writing, and admit...
