drop-IN Sessions

The drop-IN Sessions is a podcast of rambling conversations immaculately researched and planned by two verbose fools, one of which has been writing a blog www.dropthebeatonit.com for ten years to critical acclaim from Vice, The Guardian, and the New York Times, and the other, a man who just wants to be heard. We are Alfie and Domingo, and together every week we vacillate on an array of carefully plucked subjects from the ether, from regret, to obsession, to being a parent, to fizzy water. It’s all here. We hope you enjoy.

From late summer, we go in on change. Nothing changes if nothing changes, but does anything need to change, we could just stay put. Or do we all need to go full MJ in front of the mirror and make that change shamone.

Is monk-like asceticism all it’s cracked up to be. I get gunned on my attempts to walk the path of purity, a whole lot of filth comes out in the wash.

In today’s modern day interconnectedness of everything, has our attention span gone to shit. Can we focus on anything anymore, are we doomed forever, or should we just roll with it, own it, be all over the shop.

We go all in on memory. Do we remember what happened, what we want to, or what we need to. Who ever let truth get in the way of a good story.

What makes a man a real man. Does such a thing even exist. Is this all for the better, or are things getting so blurred we’re all cruising through the fog blissfully unaware of the pile-up ahead.

The love-hate relationship of our lives, we talk through all things football, what it gives and what it takes away. How we wish we could care less, and yet when Saturday comes we start all over again.
