#5 | Pizza, Falling in Love, Kid Money, War

Welcome -- one and all! -- to another episode of our conversational podcast, Constellation. This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Last Stand's duo of producers, Dustin Furman and Ben Smith. Dustin tells us the tale of how he fell in love with his wife, and wonders how and when we knew we knew we loved our significant others. Ben asks about so-called 'kid money', or the cash young people earn and spend. How did we raise funds as children and teens, and how do we feel about the ever-growing economic power of kids? Dagan's topic is nitty and gritty: Pizza! Geographic specificity, topping choices, snootiness. The whole deal. And finally, Colin wants to talk about war, and an American society that seems to find itself militarily-engaged once a generation as if history never happened at all. Should we fear the repercussions of prolonging, escalating, and facilitating a conflict that has nothing to do with us? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

#4 | Valentine's Day, IRL Side Quests, Next-Gen Leaps, Clothes Shopping

For this week's all-new episode of Constellation, The Brothers Moriarty are pleased to draft The Washington Post's Gene Park into their ranks, as well as Sacred Symbols' very own Chris Ray Gun. Gene wants to delve into so-called 'real-life side quests,' the things we keep ourselves busy with on the side for one reason or another. Chris reflects on generational jumps in gaming, particularly the leap from PS2 to PS3 and Xbox to Xbox 360, which he identifies as the greatest shift we've yet experienced. Dagan tells us about his Valentine's Day experiences and expectations, and whether the holiday has long-since overstayed its welcome. And finally, Colin hates shopping for clothes, and he wants everyone to know about it. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

#3 | Anime, Old Man Moments, Guilty Pleasure Movies, Home Ownership

This week's episode of Constellation is a doozy. Micah joins us to ask about our so-called "old man moments," and if we're evolving into our parents. Dustin waxes poetic about anime, and how it has slowly-but-surely taken over the world. Dagan wonders if he should be more curious and open to new experiences, rather than falling back on the same old guilty pleasure pieces of entertainment and fiction. And finally, Colin inquires about the trials and tribulations of home ownership, and how it's (mostly positively) shaped each of our lives. Learn more about your ad choices.

#2 | Modern TV, Home Cooking, Social Media, Billionaires

 It's time once more for Constellation, Last Stand Media's conversational podcast. For this episode, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by the co-hosts of Defining Duke: An Xbox Podcast. Cog wants to chat about contemporary television, our respective migrations to digital subscriptions, and how our viewing behaviors have changed over time. Matty is curious about the ways we interact with social media, and how we deal with the overwhelming negativity it can introduce. Dagan brings cooking to the table (pardon the pun), and inquires about the cast's culinary skills, tastes, and expectations. And finally, Colin expresses concern over the very existence of billionaires, a few thousand global citizens who are so beyond the traditional definition of "rich" that it defies their very sense of reality.

#1 | New Year Resolutions, Ancient Apocalypse, Artemis Program, Hidden Talents

Welcome one and all to the first-ever episode of Constellation, Last Stand Media's new conversational podcast. For each episode, Colin and Dagan are joined by two random guests from LSM's orbit to discuss four random topics, and this time around we're pleased to be joined by the other two-thirds of Sacred Symbols: Chris Ray Gun and Dustin Furman. Dustin wants to discuss the vaunted New Years Resolution with an eye towards whether they serve any function at all. Chris was recently captured by Netflix's docuseries Ancient Apocalypse, and wonders if an Ice Age-era civilization predates all we know about our past. Colin is amped about NASA's successful Artemis I launch, and sells the crew on why a return to the moon is a great thing (if not inevitable). And finally, Dagan considers the likelihood that we've all missed-out on discovering some of our truest talents, a sign of the rapidly passing years and our inability to manage our infinite potential.
