Episode #220 Built to Last

The summer heat has arrived on Florida’s Space Coast, and Thad and Scott are feeling it. From parched gardens to failing ACs, the guys kick things off talking weather, rainwater collection, and a fan motor/capacitor crisis that leads Scott to a clutch save by ACE Hardware on US1 in Titusville.

Then it’s a deep dive into how convenience is reshaping the world around us — from the stuff we buy to the way we work. Are we losing our grip on quality and pride? Or is there a new kind of craftsmanship emerging in unexpected places?

After the break, powered by Lo Presher’s track “War,” the conversation gets global. With blackouts, border shifts, and rising tensions, the world feels unstable — but the call for leadership, resilience, and real connection has never been clearer.

Smart, grounded, and full of those “yeah, I feel that” moments.

After a good rain, the garden is thriving, and the guys chat about how the tomatoes and veggies are loving the weather. They also give a big shout-out to Che and his latest episode of The Social Contrast, where he and Thad dive into music and meaning with tracks from Florida’s own Lo Presher.

The Social Contrast Podcast: Reflections on Lo Presher: Episode 5 #music #rock #environmentalism

http://www.youtube.com/@modernsophist

In our fifth episode of “The Social Contrast”, Thaddeus T and I we will be discussing and analyzing three songs from Florida band, Lo Presher. From these songs we will interpret their message as to how it pertains to the band’s art and how it reveals relevant existential, political and societal issues that connect to the backdrop of the surf culture, transcendentalism and self-awareness. In doing so, we resolve to answer the following questions: “How should we view the relationship between existence to the construct of the world as we know?” “Where do we draw the line when it comes to our trust in political powers?” “To what extent is our responsibility in environmentalism?” A VibeFarmer Production Recorded at 6Mile Studios https://www.vibefarmer.com

Episode #208 Reflecting with Scott

Happy New Years everyone! 2025 he here and we are motivated to make it count. In this special episode, Scott takes a step back to reflect on the journey of Adjust the Mic—from its creation to the people who have shaped it along the way. He opens up about the evolution of the show, the connections made, the challenges faced, and the personal growth that has come with it.

This episode is different. It’s personal. It’s outside of Scott’s comfort zone (and, honestly, after listening back, he kinda hates it). But sometimes, stepping into discomfort leads to the best stories.

A big thanks to Thad for the gentle but persistent nudges to make this happen.

If you’ve been following the show for a while, this one’s for you. FYI MUCH was missed and not discussed. Look forward to reflecting with people on some of that content in future episodes. Thank you for everything!

Check it out if you’d like—no pressure, but we’d love to hear what you think!
