Showing Promise
Showing Promise is a general-discussion podcast "hosted" by me, Matt. I had the idea of making a podcast back in 2021, and in true perfectionist fashion, I kind of actually sort of started working on it in 2022. If you know me, you know I talk a lot, so this felt like a logical outlet for all those words.
Episodes often drift toward music (because I love it), but really, anything goes. I just enjoy talking to people. So, while there’s no set theme or schedule—to heck with the algorithm—you can expect frequent banter, colorful commentary, and the occasional crass detour. Sometimes it's me and friends, sometimes it's just me rambling like a caffeinated philosopher. I post episodes when they’re done. That’s it.
This podcast is made purely for the fun of it. If you're into conversational chaos with heart, give it a listen. Thanks for being here!

The Fab Two: Seeing Paul McCartney & Ringo Starr Live (Two Unforgettable Shows)
You say goodbye, and I say hello! In this episode I’m diving headfirst into the world of Beatlemania. I’ve been a devoted Beatles fan for as long as I can remember, always dreaming about seeing the Fab Four live in concert. But let’s be real—that was never going to happen across this universe. So, if I couldn’t see them together, I would have to see them individually. After all, they’re still Beatles, right?
I was lucky enough to catch Paul McCartney live on his Freshen Up Tour back in 2019, and just recently, I experienced Ringo Starr and His All Starr Band during their Spring 2023 stop in San Diego. With those two shows, I finally fulfilled a new dream—seeing the last two remaining Beatles perform live. In this episode, I’m sharing my thoughts, emotions, and everything I felt during those unforgettable concerts.
Thank you for listening!
