About Left Hand Right Brain Podcast

Left Hand Right Brain is the podcast where JD Lopez, comedian and self proclaimed sensitive artist, has a free flowing conversation with other artists breaking down their creative process and exploring our personal foibles. But, it's not as pretentious as it sounds. We talk about all this and more while kicking back, cracking wise, and having a good time.

   LHRB 389: One Step Closer to The End w/ Paul & Andres

   This week JD brings back longtime collaborators Paul Karolyi (https://www.instagram.com/paul_karolyi/) and Andres Becerril for a reflective, and at times uncomfortable, look at what this show has been and what it isn't anymore. JD revisits clips from nearly a decade ago, forcing everyone to confront earlier versions of themselves: the voices, the ambitions, the awkwardness, and the assumptions about creativity, success, and identity. What starts as a clip show quickly turns into a broader conversation about how podcasting has changed, why it's harder to be authentic now, and whether it's better to burn out or deliberately walk away. Along the way, they get into friendship over time, the shifting meaning of "making it," and the reality that not everything you build is meant to last forever.

   LHRB 388: The Beginning of The End w/ Patrick Scott

   This episode marks the beginning of the end for Left Hand Right Brain. This week JD is joined by longtime friend and comedian Patrick Scott (https://www.instagram.com/impatrickscott/?hl=en) to look back at where this podcast started and what it's become. We listen to clips from one of our first episodes together from 2016 and react to them—what holds up, what doesn't, and how much (or how little) we've actually changed. The conversation moves between comedy, relationships, career choices, and the pressure to grow into something more. It's an honest look at friendship over time and the strange experience of hearing your past self speak back to you. More than anything, this episode reflects what the podcast has always been: a record of where I was at the time. A running diary of conversations, ideas, and people who mattered. This is the first of several farewell episodes with guests who shaped the show along the way.

LHRB 390: Podcasts Never Die w/ Royce & Mallory

Published 18 May 2026 · Transcript excerpt

[…] He's been doing a whole series on all the four virtues. Yeah. Uh, the four star, you know, temperance, justice, wisdom, and courage. And, uh, so the last one that he put out was about wisdom and he was talking about, you know, just being able to put something down and, uh, you, you just don't have the time in the day to do everything. So you gotta stop something if you want to evolve. Yeah. You got to be, you got to be deliberate. Yeah. And that just really hit me this time. And the idea of stopping some of the things I'm doing, I'm even pulling back on the, you know, pursuing the standup stuff as well. […]
