This time, we sat down with Andrew Meagher and Cody Savonen, the brains behind Mugatunes.com. Mugatunes (@mugatunes) is a community of Tastemakers from around the country who come together to share the best music. No bots, no algorithms, no shitty music. It’s human music curation from people you can trust. As an avid Spotify junky, I have had my heart ripped out by mismanaged playlists. So often, money, pressure from major labels, and other factors come into play for getting the top spots on Spotify and Apple Music playlists. Mugatunes is the cure for shitty music curation. Playlist creators, who Mugatunes refers to as Tastemakers, are vetted individually before being allowed to create playlists on the platform. From there, real humans vote on the best songs and playlists, which you can see out in the open on Mugatunes.com. No shady algorithms, just human-driven jams. I’ve been bumping Mugatunes playlists for the past month since I met Cody and Drew at a rooftop party that Mugatunes was sponsoring in Brooklyn. I can attest that these playlists are miles beyond some of what some of the other major players have to offer. To put it simply, I’m addicted. On this episode, we discuss how Mugatunes works as a platform, the beginnings of Drew and Cody’s interest in music, the conversations that sparked Mugatunes in a college dorm room, and their upcoming 20 city Blockparty tour. Without further ado, here is our wide-ranging conversation with Drew and Cody of Mugatunes.

This time, we sat down with Randal Koene, a well-respected neuroscientist and founder of CarbonCopies.org, the outreach and roadmapping organization for advancing substrate independent minds. What is a substrate independent mind? Fair question. According to Carbon Copies, substrate independence is when “our cognitive processes are then no longer tied to a single version of the brain’s processing architecture. Instead, our thoughts and feelings will be able to exist on a variety of processing substrates.” In other words, our minds, our consciousness can exist outside of our brains, the mushy stuff, potentially forever on another platform. Randal Koene has dedicated his life to mind uploading, whole brain emulation, and making it possible, as he puts it, “to choose our brain and body much as we can choose our winter or summer clothes to suit our needs” Randal explains the concept of mind uploading and its implications far better than I will ever be able to so I’ll let him take it from here. This topic is important, and although mind uploading may not seem like a reality, it may be closer than you think and can solve many of the problems we deal with today as we are limited by our biology. So without further ado here is our wide ranging conversation with neuroscientist Randal Koene.

This time, we sat down with Zuby (@ZubyMusic), a professional rapper, podcast host, public speaker, and an overall creative entrepreneur. He recently gained a massive amount of attention by destroying the British Women’s Deadlift and Bench record. The video of him doing so currently has over 1.7 million views on Twitter and he’s been invited to speak on platforms like The Candace Owens Show, Louder with Crowder, The Ben Shapiro Show, and more. How did HE break the women’s records and why did he do it? We’ll get into that soon. An Oxford graduate with a degree in computer science, Zuby quit his corporate job to become a full time, independent music artist. Since then, he has sold over 25,000 albums and recently surpassed 100k followers on Twitter alone. As a British Nigerian who grew up in Saudi Arabia, Zuby has a unique perspective of how different cultures operate. What’s normal to you is not normal to everyone else, something that I am still learning every day. On this episode, Zuby and I get into the mindset behind breaking the Women’s British lifting records, the modern-day attack on free speech, waxing balls in women’s salons, his music career, how to talk to strangers, and more. Without further ado, I hope that you never experience getting your balls waxed and please enjoy this wide-ranging conversation with Zuby.
