She shares how faith and family anchor her, why she’s bringing black country energy into her sound, and the vision behind her new BLKJAC project. From winning WDIV Super Singer at 15 to the 2025 Majestic Takeover, this is real talk on resilience, representation, and redefining Detroit music.

Suzanne Nagel is the founder and owner of the Om Lounge yoga studios in the Strip and East Liberty. She is a mother, teacher, and leads retreats around the world. She is known as a mentor for young instructors and also for her rigorous classes that push students to achieve more. Our first conversation was one of my earliest and most popular episodes. It encouraged me to keep going with the podcast when I saw the success I had with our first talk. This episode covers more personal topics including relationship advice, how to succeed as a yoga teacher, our yoga peeves, and much more. We mentioned @AubreyMarcusPod and @silvermanastrology

Bob Freyer is one of Pittsburgh's most significant active visual artists. He has a long history of repping the city with his complex work that taps into his background in hip hop/graffiti, skateboarding and comics. He has sold art to some of the cultures finest including legends like KRS and Rakim. While we don't put too much stock into any awards it is pretty cool that he has won the Pgh City Paper's 'best visual artist' award 2 of the last 3 years. We had a ton of common ground to cover and talk for over two hours about art and his process, conspiracy theories, sopranos and breaking bad, star wars, and a lot more. We shouted:
