Showing Promise
Showing Promise is a general-discussion podcast hosted by Matthew Cementina. I had the idea back in 2021 to create a podcast, and in 2022 kind of actually sort of started working on it. If you know me, you know I talk quite a lot. So it seemed like a logical project. It’s often on music, and I like the idea of going that direction, but I also just enjoy talking to people. So it’s nothing too specific at the moment. Frequently colorful. Sometimes crass. I don’t have a release schedule. I post them as I complete them. To heck with the algorithm. I do it for fun. Please check it out if you are interested in listening to my friends and I or sometimes just myself wax eloquent about anything and everything. Thank you!

Star Wars Celebration London & Blink-182 Returns!
It has been a wild week, but we are back in action! I have recently returned from a trip across the pond for this years Star Wars Celebration. Star Wars Celebration is the ultimate Star Wars convention, and changes location every year it's held. For 2023, SWC went international to jolly old London, England. Over the course of 4 days, ExCel London was completely taken over by Star Wars fandom. Like most pop-culture conventions, SWC features merchandise vendors, props and costume displays, autograph signings and photo ops, live panels, cosplay, games, tattooing, and so much more. It may just be my favorite convention out there.
Plus! They're baaaack. That's right, people. This is not some sick April Fool's joke. Blink-182 has returned. And I need to talk about it. Blink made their return to the stage during night 1 of the Coachella music festival, and it was glorious. Hear my thoughts on their comeback set!
Thank you for listening!
