Here is a fascinating explanation of why everything went to hell in America after 2012: Americans used to spread out, live with likeminded people, but smartphones/social-media put us all into one big room, to get mad at each other: from @Noahpinion noahpinion.blog/p/social-media…
I am on today's episode of "Clean Up on Aisle Podcast," a show that exposes the "dirty" truth about grocery stores, hosted by my buddy Jef Harmatz, a frequent guest on my old "Far Out!" podcast. Here, have a heated debate about frozen pizza. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/epi…
Just got home from a 5-day trip to Havana, Cuba still trying to get my ahead around the incredible architecture, music, rum, coffee, beaches, history, and cigars. The people were absolutely wonderful and the laws befuddling. #Cuba
Last week, I spoke with @DeepakChopra at @aspenideas. Here's his advice for people who are feeling depressed and anxious because of the current state of the world. upworthy.com/depressed-by-t…
Just had an amazing conversation with @DeepakChopra at Aspen Ideas festival about consciousness, AI, Taoism, and depression. You can read about it soon on @Upworthy.

i normally don’t share pictures of strangers but these 2 juggalos painting their face at Bonnaroo is so sweet to me i cannot stop thinking ab it rn lol 😭😭😭🖤
I’m proud to have made the front page on the Sunday edition of my hometown paper. I laugh my ass off that I was placed above one of the biggest events of the millennium.
Thought I might share a life story from a few months ago to brighten your day. Back in March, I spotted a raccoon on the side of the interstate that had very clearly been run over. I pulled over thinking I’d have to put it out of its misery. We ended up becoming good friends.
Back in 1997, when I was 20, I was the "Single Guy" reporter for Torrance Community Television, and I did a spot on how to meet women in the city's many laundromats. I should have won a Pulitzer. youtube.com/watch?v=BOcmY6…
Wrote a few words for @Upworthy today about my favorite story from one of my favorite bands. upworthy.com/beastie-boy-ha…
They picked an American pope, and it wasn't this guy? Blasphemy. #Pope
My house is on a home tour. Come open my cabinets, wash in my bathroom, and judge my kitchen! For reals though, this is a great organization educating folks about unique SoCal architecture, and they are highlighting the neighborhood I love. sahscc.org/site/index.php…
The tip jars at the AMC bar last night at the “Revenge of the Sith” screening paint a dark picture of America in 2025. #StarWars
My show "Alison and Tod : After Hours" with @AlisonRosen is now at episode 52, which I believe is a record. Honestly, have any podcasts made it to 52 episodes? Probably not. For just $3.99/mo. hear the most experienced podcasters on Earth. patreon.com/posts/and-t-ep…
I wrote this tongue-in-cheek piece for @Upworthy three years ago, and it always gets a lot of clicks whenever it's reposted. Sometimes, I'm lucky enough to get an angry DM on Twitter about my full-throated embrace of apathy. upworthy.com/bring-back-gen…
There's something sinister about putting people with any health issue onto a government list. Especially one being curated by a man whose understanding of autism and neurodiversity is highly questionable (at best). change.org/p/stop-the-nat…
