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!

We're Gonna Need A Bigger Boat with William "Bill" Eck
Holy crap! It's episode 30! I can hardly believe we've made it this far. To say I’m grateful doesn’t even begin to cover it. Thank you so much to every guest who’s joined me on this journey, and to every listener who’s tuned in. Your support means everything.
For this special milestone episode, I’m thrilled to welcome back my dear friend Bill. Nearly two years after our original conversation, we’ve finally reunited for the long-awaited sequel. And trust me, we picked up right where we left off.
In this episode, we dive deep once again—exploring the strange inner workings of infamous cults, revisiting some "wild" shared memories, and celebrating the 50th anniversary of one of our all-time favorite films. Plus, we also couldn’t resist dissecting a few of our favorite action movies and reveling in all their glorious absurdity. Thanks for hanging with us and being part of the madness for 30 episodes!
Listen to my first episode with Bill right here!
Thank you for listening!
