    What I Needed to Give Up in Order to Gain Peace (*somewhat controversial)

    2026/08/13 | 1h 4 mins.
    #259. A re-release of a favorite, Things I Left Behind to Gain Peace, and some of these may be rather controversial. In every era of my life, whenever I notice I’m a little on-edge, I realize I’m more often in need of releasing what doesn’t suit me rather than adding to my life. What are you releasing in this era?

    How Hard Can It Be? Boys Do It — & Other Musings with MadsMitch

    2026/08/06 | 57 mins.
    #258. Maddy has been one of my favorite people to follow on socials for years, so when I found out we were crossing paths in Los Angeles, I had to have her on NTS. We’re chatting about her fresh (somewhat traumatizing?) start in LA, the parts of going viral nobody posts about, why we’ve both decided we need significantly more whimsy, our correct opinions, and so much more.
