[Podcast] Cozy Corner Ep. 1 - The Super Bowl Blues

This week I talk about how I was absolutely crushed emotionally after the Super Bowl, and just why oh why it meant so much for my team to win (yet they sadly did not); the assorted movies, anime, video games, and books I've enjoyed over the past month; and last but not least, I answer YOUR questions as well as share a pretty fun story about how I "crashed" a famous Disney movie's red carpet event years back.

(What's funny is that for this being the Cozy Corner, I didn't actually have a cup of coffee with me as I recorded this ๐Ÿ˜… Talk about a missed opportunity! What's funny, though, is that I've recorded countless audios about the most spiciest topics out there, but would you believe it if I said it was actually this audio right here that got me the most nervous!?

I dunno but something about recording straight and just letting my flow of consciousness out into the world for the first time like this had me a little anxious. But hey, I survived it and I actually learned a lot from this experience! I'm hoping the next episode feels a little more coherent and better organized, however, be sure to let me know any feedback ya might have!)

XD such a cool story!!

Dova

Haha at first I totally thought she was gonna scam me but she actually did in fact pay me back the next day. Mind you, I was quite young when this happened so while I was naive I did also hope she would end up coming through which she did! And also helped me make quite the memory out of the whole thing too! ๐Ÿ˜† But youโ€™re super right about her being suspicious ๐Ÿ˜จ

Gentle Geek

When you finished the whole story about the Pirates of the Caribbean premiere I got a bit surprised because I was just expecting with my whole heart for the woman to con you and not pay you back the 80 bucks, but if you didn't mention losing the money, I'm guessing she did. Which is hilarious because the entire time she sounded super sus. Guess I'm too suspicious of people making strangers pay for their things, even if it's a temporary solution.

Aww thanks for your support and for joining the Patreon! And also knowing that my podcast preview is what helped seal the deal makes me smile, since while I very much do enjoy crafting all the sexy / spicy audios, it really helps to know I can have a safe space where I can just be myself and speak my mind and share the things that I've recently enjoyed and wanna talk about! So thank you again for being a lovely listener and for also supporting me directly here on Patreon. I can't wait to keep recording more audios of all varieties, including new podcast eps and making y'all smile with each one ๐Ÿฅฐโœจ

Sorry if this is a little long ๐Ÿ˜…, but Iโ€™m usually a silent listener and this podcast made me come out of my shell. Ngl, I was trying to not spend too much money, but I knew Iโ€™d cave in and subscribe to you. What shocked me is that I always assumed Iโ€™d cave after listening to the preview of one of your nsfw audios, but I caved after listening to your podcast preview. It is just so amazing to hear about who you are and what you do outside of the audios!! For the podcast itself, I loved the length. I listened to it today and I got ready and got to and from school. It was perfect hearing you talk about what media youโ€™ve been consuming, and your red carpet story made me actually laugh out loud. I cannot wait to see what else you have in store!! ๐Ÿฉต๐Ÿฉต

Whew, just wanted to make sure! And thank YOU for your contribution to this month's episode! It's hard to answer questions if I don't have them ready to go so I highly appreciate your participation. And like I said, any unanswered questions submitted my way will get put away safely to be used down the road! ๐Ÿ˜‰โœจ

Gentle Geek

Haha no worries! You reply as much as you want ๐Ÿ˜‰โœŒ๏ธ And what I love about literature and books is just how striking their word pictures and visuals can be despite being just words, and then seeing how they relate to a thought or an emotion that the author is trying to convey. So I'm happy you could feel just how on the nose that brutal metaphor was but also be intrigued enough to read the book! ๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ’• And thank you so much for the feedback on this first episode too as I'm still trying to find my legs with it, so to speak. So I'm just smiling to know that whether it was my recommendations, the Q&A section, or even my personal talk with american football and Super Bowl, that it all was entertaining and could keep you wanting to listen all the way through! I'm excited myself to see what next month's episode will be about ๐ŸŽ™๏ธโœจ

Gentle Geek

Aww that means a whole lot to me! Seriously, just knowing that I can help create a space for people where they feel they can just be themselves in all facets of life (spicy, sweet, or everything in between!) And thank you for the feedback on this first episode of this series as I learn how best to host and produce it for maximum enjoyment ๐Ÿ˜‰โœจ

Gentle Geek

Cowboy Bebop's OST is an absolute legend! Fun fact: I got to see Yoko Kanno perform once before back in the day at an anime con! ๐ŸŽตโœจ Oh! I had actually never heard of that film before until I just looked it up (Perfect Days). I'm gonna put it on my "To Watch" list cause that sounds like something that would be right up my alley! Thanks for the recommendation and sharing what you liked about it ๐Ÿ˜ƒ Happy to hear you enjoyed this inaugural episode! Hoping to tweak it little by little so it's even smoother next time around ๐ŸŽง

Gentle Geek

Really enjoy listening to your thoughts, feelings and recommendations. Definitely looking forward to future episodes. I so appreciate how much you share with us and how you foster a community where not only you, but we can express ourselves openly and safely. ๐Ÿ˜˜

I've been listening to the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack on loop lately cause it's just too good! I recently watched Perfect Days and reccomending it to everybody I talk to, a film that appreciates the little things in life. The importance of being present, and how that can make the most mundane task feel significant and worthwhile, all of this with a ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ง๐˜ฆ๐˜ค๐˜ต soundtrack. Can't wait to hear the other episodes! โœจ

Hi Gentle, a few thing that came to mind, I hope it's not too much for one comment So first of all, 45:40 ; I understand it's a metafor, but if that ever happen to me, I would simply pass away ๐Ÿ’€ so brutal way to paint that feeling and so effective too, because it's really like that, something clearly wrong but you are getting dismissed and how frustrating it is, I'll absolutly give a try to that book, so thank you for the recommendation ๐Ÿ˜Œ About the length of the potcast, I think it was the perfect amount of everything: recent events/media recommendation/answering questions and of course you sharing a personal story of yours I very much enjoyed everything (even the super bowl part too, even tho I'm european and know nothing about it, but you made that part intresting too) and I think it's safe to say we who subscribed to your patreon would listen to anything from you, even if you rambling about nothing for 2 hours ๐Ÿ˜†โค๏ธ Can't wait for the next episode ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Cirmos

No you answered my question perfectly (Iโ€™m listening to this at work so ๐Ÿ˜…) but no your question wasnโ€™t long winded , thanks for answering ๐Ÿ˜‹
