Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed is a podcast about modern life — the small things, the bigger shifts, and the moments that make you pause and think, “Are we really doing this?”
It’s not about being angry. It’s about paying attention.
Sometimes it’s funny. Sometimes it’s thoughtful. Occasionally it’s a little irritated.
Mostly, it’s honest.
Half joking. Fully iritated
The side hustle is supposed to mean extra money and extra freedom—but sometimes it just means more hours, more expenses, and a second job you can’t afford to quit. In this episode, I talk honestly about the promise of side hustles versus the reality.

Protecting Your Peace.
Some people will smile to your face, shake your hand, and then tear you apart the second you walk away. In this episode of Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed, I talk about toxic coworkers, fake friendships, church hypocrites, and why protecting your peace has become one of the most important priorities in my life. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve realized not every argument deserves a response, not every relationship deserves another chance, and not everyone deserves access to my life.

Remember We We Had To Wait?
Remember when you couldn’t just Google the answer? When you had to wait for your favorite TV show, develop film to see your pictures, or call someone’s house and hope they were home?
In this episode of Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed, I take a trip back to a time when life moved a little slower. From dial-up internet and paper maps to cassette tapes, video stores, and actually being patient, we look at how much the world has changed—and whether all that convenience has really made life better.
It’s a nostalgic, lighthearted conversation about growing up before everything became instant, and why maybe waiting wasn’t always such a bad thing.
⸻
I think it fits the nostalgic style you’ve been going for with the podcast while inviting listeners to think back to their own memories.

Tickets, Fees, and Ruined Experiences
Remember when getting tickets actually meant something?
You’d camp out, stand in line, maybe even make a day out of it.
Now you sit on your couch, hit refresh 47 times… and still lose to a bot.
And if you do get tickets?
Congratulations—your $75 seat is now $163 after “processing,” “service,” and “we felt like it” fees.
Today we’re talking about ticket prices, hidden fees, and how convenience completely sucked the life out of the experience.
This is Unfiltered and Slightly Annoyed.

Yes, Becoming a Millionaire Is Still Possible
A lot of people believe becoming a millionaire is out of reach these days, but a study by Ramsey Solutions looked at more than 10,000 millionaires and found a very different story. In this episode of Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed, I break down some of the biggest findings from the study—how most millionaires actually built their wealth, the role of retirement accounts, income levels, habits, and why becoming a millionaire may be more ordinary and achievable than most people think. If you’ve ever wondered whether the American Dream is still alive, this episode is for you.

Nobody Owes You Attention
In a world where everyone is posting, sharing, reacting, and demanding to be seen, it’s easy to believe attention is something we deserve. But the truth is — nobody owes us a listen, a follow, a reply, or a platform. In this episode of Just Say It, we talk about the difference between seeking validation and earning respect. From social media outrage to everyday conversations, this episode breaks down why authenticity, value, and honesty matter more than chasing attention from strangers. Sometimes the hardest truth to accept is also the most freeing: you stop performing when you realize nobody owes you applause.

Just Say it
How many conversations have you avoided because the timing didn’t feel right… or because you were afraid of what might happen after you spoke up?
In this episode of Unfiltered, Jason dives into the uncomfortable truth about honesty, communication, and the things we leave unsaid. Whether it’s telling someone how you really feel, standing up for yourself, apologizing, setting boundaries, or finally chasing something you’ve been overthinking — sometimes the hardest part is simply saying it out loud.
This episode explores why people stay silent, how fear controls conversations, and what can change when you stop rehearsing life in your head and start speaking honestly. Real talk, relatable stories, and a reminder that clarity is almost always better than regret.
Because sometimes the words you’re avoiding are the exact words you need to say.

Nobody Notices Your Early Work and That’s Fine
Nobody’s watching.
Nobody’s commenting.
Nobody seems to care.
Sound familiar?
In this episode, I talk about what it really feels like in the early stages of creating—when you’re putting in the work and getting little to nothing back.
This is the part most people quit.
But this is also where everything is built.
I get into why this phase matters more than you think, how to stay consistent when it feels pointless, and why not being noticed right now might actually be your biggest advantage.
Because one day, people will find your work…
They just won’t see the quiet reps it took to get there.
Keep Going!!!

Do It Scared
This week’s episode is a little different.
I’m reflecting on my recent conversation with Frank Somerville — what it was like stepping into an interview that pushed me outside my comfort zone, handling nerves in real time, and why taking chances matters even when you don’t feel fully ready.
Sometimes growth doesn’t come when you feel confident. It comes when you do it scared.
I also talk about betting on yourself, trusting the process, and why some of the best opportunities happen when you stop waiting for the “perfect” moment.
Raw, honest, and straight from the truck studio.

Frank Somerville Unfiltered – Part 2
Part 2 of my conversation with Frank Somerville is here.
We go deeper into recovery, public perception, lessons learned, and what people often misunderstand about addiction and rebuilding your life. Frank speaks candidly about growth, resilience, and moving forward.
Honest, raw, and unfiltered.
If you haven’t heard Part 1 yet, start there.

Frank Somerville Unfiltered - Part 1
Quick heads-up before we start: this conversation was split into two parts, and Part 1 ends right in the middle of our discussion. Nothing went wrong — Part 2 picks up immediately where this one leaves off.
This week’s episode is a special one.
I’m joined by Frank Somerville, a longtime Bay Area news anchor and Emmy Award-winning broadcaster whose voice and presence became familiar to viewers for decades.
In Part 1, Frank opens up about life these days, staying active, routine, recovery, and what it’s like navigating a new chapter after years in the spotlight. We also talk about Oakland, identity, and perspective.
Real conversation. No script. No filters.

Sayings That Miss (PART 2)
In this episode of Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed, we’re running it back.
We already called out some of the most overused sayings that don’t quite make sense… but there are plenty more where those came from.
You know the ones—phrases people repeat without thinking…
Sayings that sound deep, but fall apart the second you actually break them down.
From “everything happens for a reason”…
To “it’s always the last place you look”…
To the classics that just don’t hold up in real life—
We’re picking them apart, one by one.
No overthinking. No sugarcoating. Just real reactions to the stuff people say every day.
If you’ve ever heard a saying and thought, “wait… what?”—this one’s for you.
New episodes drop Mondays…
This is Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed… stay sharp.

Quotes That Hit…and Sayings That Miss
Some sayings sound deep… until you actually think about them.
In this episode of Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed, we’re calling out the everyday phrases people repeat without question—things like “I could care less,” “everything happens for a reason,” and “it’s always the last place you look.”
Yeah… no kidding.
This one’s part humor, part reality check. We break down why these sayings don’t make sense, how they’ve somehow survived this long, and why it might be time to retire them for good.
If you’ve ever heard a phrase and thought, “wait… what?”—this episode’s for you.

Pet Peeves That Kill My Vibe
We all have them… those little things that shouldn’t matter—but absolutely do.
In this episode of Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed, I’m calling out the everyday nonsense that instantly kills my vibe. From people driving with dogs on their lap, to slow walkers with zero awareness, to the small habits that somehow feel way bigger than they should… yeah, we’re getting into it.
This isn’t about being negative—it’s about saying what everyone’s already thinking but won’t say out loud.
If you’ve ever been irrationally annoyed in public (or behind the wheel), this one’s for you.
You’ll probably laugh…
You might nod along…
And you’ll definitely recognize a few of your own pet peeves in here.
New episodes drop Mondays…
This is Unfiltered & Slightly Annoyed — stay sharp.

When A Fire Becomes A Switch
There was a time when starting a fire actually meant something.
You had to gather the wood…
Stack it just right…
Strike a match and hope it caught…
And when it finally did?
You earned that fire.
Now?
You walk over… flip a switch… and boom — instant “ambiance.”
In this episode of Unfiltered and Slightly Annoyed, we’re talking about fireplaces… but not really.
This is about how convenience has slowly replaced experience.
From wood-burning fires to gas inserts…
From Blockbuster nights to streaming…
From doing things the hard way… to barely doing them at all…
Somewhere along the way, we traded the process for the shortcut.
And yeah — it’s easier.
But is it better?

Be Home Before The Streetlights Come On
In this episode of Unfiltered and Slightly Annoyed, I found myself thinking about how different growing up used to feel.
It started with something simple — the old movie theater down the road from my house getting torn down. Seeing it disappear brought back memories of roller rinks, Blockbuster nights, riding bikes all day, and the one rule every kid had: be home before the streetlights come on.
No phones.
No tracking apps.
No constant notifications.
Just freedom, boredom, and figuring things out as you went.
This isn’t a “things today are terrible” rant — just an honest look at how much the world has changed, and why growing up back then felt a little more carefree.

Navigating Social Media Without Losing Your Mind
Outrage is everywhere. But does every disagreement require a meltdown?
This episode dives into social media toxicity, constant offense, and the importance of protecting your peace.
Not everything needs a reaction.

Stop Charging Me to Spend My Own Money
Somewhere along the way, customers became responsible for covering every cost of doing business.
3% card surcharge? Processing fee? Convenience fee? When does it stop?
In this episode, I question the logic behind pushing business expenses directly onto customers — and why we’re just expected to accept it.
If you’ve ever looked at a receipt and thought, “You’ve got to be kidding me,” this one’s for you.
Unfiltered. Slightly annoyed. And not apologizing for it.
