Free Gear Haul: MXL 990, Behringer CO2s & More

I didn’t have a plan for this episode—I just felt like recording. I talk about the hot weather, hanging out with my cats, and the box of free audio gear I just got from someone on Discord. Inside: an MXL 990, Behringer CO2s, contact mics, and a Tascam DR-05. Lots of mic talk, a bit of gear history, and some casual hanging out.

Trauma or Social Anxiety? Untangling the Roots of Fear

In this episode, I open up about my subconscious fear of strangers and how it affects my daily life—even something as simple as leaving my room. I explore where this fear might come from, and whether it’s rooted in childhood trauma, social anxiety, or a mix of both. Together, we’ll unpack the difference between trauma-driven fear and thought-driven social anxiety, and talk about how they can overlap in powerful ways. I’ll share what it feels like to live with these patterns, why the body sometim...

Settling Into My New Place

I'm officially moved in! Join me as I recount the harrowing, yet ultimately peaceful, journey of moving my cats, Starshine and Sydney. I'll share my biggest fears about them escaping, the reality of my "spoiled and pampered" felines, and how we're all adjusting to our new place. Plus, an update on their new diet—and mine—after a week of moving chaos.

Sock Over the Mic

Sometimes you need a sock over your mic to tame the plosives—but never to tame your opinions. Whilst utilizing a new blackout Blue Yeti, Bree aka Slime talks audio gear, wired headphone superiority, and the chaos of everyday life, with cats, weather updates, and a side-eye at Joe Rogan’s climate commentary.

Cats, Coffee, and Moving Boxes: A Sunday Audio Journal

In this laid-back audio journal, Bree (aka Slime) hangs out with Starshine and Sydney while reflecting on an upcoming move, the quirks of renting a tiny room, and the joys and frustrations of microphones, EQ tweaks, and field recorders. From noisy neighbors to Dollar Tree’s strange obsession with energy drinks (and complete lack of coffee), it’s a casual, cat-filled snapshot of a September evening.

The High-Pass Filter and the Quiet Place

In this episode, I record a quick podcast on a Saturday afternoon using the CAD-Equitek E50 microphone. I discuss the challenges of getting a clean recording due to loud road noise outside my window. I talk about moving into a new place soon. I also talk about my love for microphones, sharing my interest in three new microphones that just came out - Behringer D3, CAD E150 and the Golden Age Project FC1 MK3 - even though I can't afford them. I reveal that a fellow Discord server member is sending...

Slime's Adventures: Microphones, Moving, and My Marvelous Cats

Join me, Bree (aka Slime), as I hang out and share what's been happening. I’m testing out my Mackie EM-99B microphone again and discussing why I'm moving to a new, quieter place soon. The cats—Starshine and Sydney—are a big part of the move, and I'll fill you in on why it's so important for them. I also talk about my experience with my DBT group, my recent microphone obsessions (and my restraint!), and what to expect from my future ASMR podcasts once I'm in a better recording environment. I even...

Energy Weapons and Indie Rock Bangers

Today’s episode kicks off with a dose of real life — from starshine’s 4 AM antics to Sydney’s bed-ruining barf session — before pivoting into fresh music and strange tech. I talk about constantly changing my podcast cover art (thanks, Gemini), and then dive into today’s Joe Rogan Experience with Garry Nolan, where energy weapons, Havana syndrome, AI, and UFOs creep into the mix. On the music side, it’s a stacked lineup: Spoon surprise-drops two new tracks (“Chateau Blues” + “Guess I’m Fallin in ...

Midnight Cat Chaos, AI Rants, The Long Tail of Music, and New Indie Music

In this episode, I kick things off with a story about my cats (especially Starshine) waking me up at 3AM to be fed and climbing all over me. From there, I go off on a rant about ChatGPT misgendering me, then pivot into the political—Trump, the National Guard, fascism, and why I believe he's a modern-day nazi. I also dive into Anthony Fantano's latest YouTube video about the flood of "mid" music and explore the idea of the long-tail era in music. To balance out the ranting, I share some new sound...

Messages, Comebacks, Open Reel Ensemble & Infinite Sources

First up, Spotify decides to get chatty with a new messaging feature. Then we revisit the late-90s when Radiohead’s “Let Down” finally lands on the Billboard Hot 100 —28 years after its release. From there it’s back-to-back freshness: a blistering new hardcore track from End It , followed by the legendary Slick Rick making his return. I’ll take you on a left-field journey with Japan’s Open Reel Ensemble , bending tape into music. And to close it all out, the heavy and hypnotic Deftones with thei...

Code 7 at Dollar Tree, Cheap Gear, Forgotten Candy & Fresh Tunes

In this episode, I kick things off with a dramatic Code 7 at Dollar Tree after trying to pay with a $100 bill—because apparently, that’s too fancy for $1.25 lemonade. From there, I rant about my Vocaster One only giving me 24v phantom power (and why I ordered a budget CAD CX1 interface to fix it), plus my excitement over the Akaso Brave 4 camera arriving—just waiting on that micro-HDMI cable to finally test it out in webcam mode. I also give some thoughts on the Behringer Bigfoot mic I’m using i...

️ Gear Frenzy & Dreamy Tunes: ASMR Beginnings + New Toys

This week I’m deep in mic land—rocking the Mackie EM-99B, unboxing plans for an Akaso Brave 4, and yes… I impulse-ordered a Behringer Bigfoot (lol). Big moves ahead: I’m diving into ASMR content soon, so expect whispers, taps, and all the tingles. Along the way, I spin two tracks from Slow Pulp and float into a hazy groove with Night Tapes. Gear talk + vibey music = perfect mix.

Canceled Orders, Ghetto Swiffers, and Niacinamide Dreams

Walmart auto-cancels me again—apparently paper plates are contraband now. After that heartbreak, I clean my tiny kingdom with a knock-off Dollar Tree Swiffer that can’t stay moist for more than two minutes. Speaking of Dollar Tree, I make a fuel run because a podcaster has to eat. Then I crack open a Sparkling Ice Caffeine with niacinamide (yes, I go on a tangent about the actual health benefits of this stuff). Later, I talk about the incredible Joy Crookes and play some of her music, before clo...

From 90s Flops to Modern Chaos: Plague, Putin, South Park, and MUSIC!

In this episode, I fire up the Samson Q2U and dive headfirst into 15 things from the '90s that were actually terrible (nostalgia goggles, beware ). From there, I jump to something less retro but way more unsettling: the plague making a comeback in Tahoe. Then I unpack Russia’s latest strike on Ukraine , before lightening things up with a breakdown of the newest South Park episode , where they go after ChatGPT. Finally, I spin tracks from Rosa Damask, Sadie Winters (yes, the AI one), and DON WEST...

AI That Should Exist, Cranberry Conspiracy, and Göbekli Tepe

On today’s episode, I kick things off ranting about my Klark Teknik order from Sweetwater that arrived defective. From there, I dive into a tech idea: why hasn’t Google baked AI into Google Photos on Android yet? Imagine just saying, “show me all the pictures with my tongue sticking out” — why isn’t that already a thing? After that, we unravel the bizarre “Cranberry Conspiracy” — why are these little red berries suddenly in every trail mix? I also break down how much your average Uber driver rea...

From Containers to Crumb: Superpowers & Fresh Indie Sounds

Slimers, we're back with a wild mix today! First up, I dive into Phoenix's bold experiment—transforming shipping containers into X-WING shelters for the unhoused. Then, I let my imagination run loose and reveal the one superpower I'd actually choose (spoiler: it's not flying). Finally, we vibe out with some songs from Crumb. Lastly, I play some fresh indie tracks from Belair Lip Bombs, and Mewtone.

Road Work, Lemonade, Weird News, and Sonoma County Suing Social Media Companies

First, I talk about the ranom road work going on. Then, I put Sprecher Charged Lemonade to the test, with a side trip into the surprising history of lemonade itself. From there, I dive into some of the week’s strangest headlines you probably missed. And finally, I break down Sonoma County’s lawsuit against the biggest social media companies.

Next, I talk about Starshine and Sydney being the stars of the show. Then, I play a couple of YouTube clips. Specifically, one about a video rental store in San Francisco. I talk about the comeback of physical media. I then play a clip about the Cardboard Genius, Kambel Smith. Finally, I play some MUSIC!

Mind-Reading Technology, Impromptu Song Covers, and ARIatHOME Beat / Freestyle

I begin by just talking about the weather and random stuff like having to reinstall Debian Linux. Then, I talk about a NY Times article about being able to read thoughts. Then, I talk about some random music news. After that, I play some impromptu covers from the YouTube channel, Murosa. Specifically, a cover of the A-HA song "Take On Me" and a cover of "In Too Deep" by Sum 41. Finally, I play a sick beat and freestyle by ARIatHOME.

Slime Show: After Dark Edition (ASMR Special)

Title says it all. I do ASMR whispering for the whole episode. You can hear crickets in the background. I am utilizing a Blue Yeti in this episode. You can also hear Starshine's clicking meow, crinking of a snack's package, tapping on a container, and more.

DBT Group, Linux, Annoying Bus Ride, and ChatGPT 5

Whilst utilizing a Samson Q2U microphone, I first talk about the DBT group from today. Then, I discuss acquiring a Lenovo X250 laptop and installing linux on it, and my linux journey. Then, I talk about an annoying bus ride with a bus driver that kept slamming on the brakes and an overly chatty guy that spilled his Arizona drink all over the floor. Finally, I talk about the ChatGPT upgrade from 4 to 5.

Slime Show: After Dark Edition ✨

Tonight’s episode gets cozy, crunchy, and just a little bit judgmental. First, I take down the smug imposters of the snack world—Garden Veggie “whatever-they-are.” Then we go through my unofficial checklist of signs you actually have your life together (spoiler: owning a functional pen makes the cut). And finally, we wind down with the pure, meditative bliss of feeling a cat’s purr and warm breath on your chest. It’s half roast, half therapy, all After Dark.

My Cats, Grocery Delivery, Public Restroom Handsoap Tier-List, and Budget Luxuries

Today, I’m spilling the tea (and maybe a little mop water) on the rollercoaster that is grocery delivery — from suspicious order cancellations to the mystery substitutions nobody asked for. Then we dive nose-first into the Public Restroom Handsoap Tier-List, because some of you are washing your hands with liquid shame. And finally, I crown the unsung heroes of Budget Luxuries — the small, cheap things that make you feel way fancier than your bank account says you are.

Spa Soap… My Hands Smell Like a Rest Stop

I went to the dollar store for hand soap, skipped the Softsoap, and grabbed something called “Spa Soap.” Now my hands smell like a highway rest stop bathroom that’s seen more road trips than cleaning supplies.

First Day In The Tiny Room

I just moved into my new place with Starshine and Sydney, and it’s already been an adventure. From meeting my new housemates, to watching the cats claim their territory, to having my Walmart order mysteriously canceled, here’s the unfiltered story of day one.

I Accidentally Ordered Uber Eats By Mistake!

I accidentally ordered a few things from Safeway through Uber Eats… and somehow racked up an $8-something delivery fee, $6-something tip, and a $35 total for a bag that could fit in my hoodie pocket. Let’s talk about delivery fees and why my groceries cost more than an actual meal out.
