I had no idea what to title this podcast – “Friend Simulator” made me sound like a science geek and “Wining & Dining with Nicholas” sounded like we were dating. Eventually, I settled with for the milquetoast title of Last Night Conversations. However, as you can tell from the short snippet at the beginning, this podcast is anything but milquetoast, but rather a wild roller coaster of laughs, inside jokes and philosophical questions all wrapped up in urban vernacular.
While I have traditionally orientated my podcasts around a single topic, as someone who has been friends with Nicholas (host of Legitimate Psychiatric Emergency & artist behind Self-Titled) for several years, I can’t name many people who are more charismatic or comfortable in front of a microphone.
So, we picked a time, set up the mics, poured the rose and spoke to our heart’s content. So, if you’re ever wondered what sitting in on an unscripted conversation between my friends and I sound like, well, wonder no more. For your convenience, I’ve added a list of timestamps down below as we jump between a myriad of topics during this podcast.
