  • Why Animated Characters Can’t Survive a Horror Movie
    Feb 26 2025

    In this episode, I start off trying to figure out which animated movie characters would actually survive a horror film, because let’s be honest, most of them wouldn’t make it past the opening scene. Then, I get into my childhood fear that swallowing a watermelon seed would turn me into the Hulk (and a small part of me still kinda believes it). Finally, I wrap things up with a wild story about driving on the 110 freeway, where things escalated fast and somehow ended with a full cup of coffee being thrown at my car. It’s a bit of a ride, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and see where the conversation takes us!

  • I Blame Humpty Dumpty for Everything
    Feb 21 2025

    In this episode of Carlos’ Thoughts podcast, I start off talking about eggs, because seriously, why are they in everything? That somehow leads me to Humpty Dumpty, I dive into sleep patterns, and Paddington in Peru, and somehow end up talking about SNL. I wrap it all up by sharing why I think everyone should try to have more friends. It’s a bit of a rollercoaster, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and see where the conversation takes us this time!

  • The Giraffe Isn’t Giraffing
    Feb 18 2025

    In this episode of Carlos’ Thoughts podcast, I start off talking about the John Deere company and how, for absolutely no reason at all, their merch is actually kind of cool. From there, I get into my biggest goal in life, being a dad, before somehow transitioning into why 7/11 (the store) and the date 7/11 should be a national holiday. And to wrap things up, I confess that I used to believe giraffes were fictional creatures… and honestly, a small part of me still kinda does. It’s a wild ride, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and let’s see where the conversation takes us this time!

  • Why I Think About Death… and Also Swallowed a Penny
    Feb 11 2025

    In this episode of Carlos’ Thoughts podcast, I start off by diving into the idea of death, how I’m scared of dying, but also… not really? From there, things take a turn into brain stuff, like whether an MRI scan can tell if you’re racist and if some people are just hardwired to be addicts. And somehow, I end up talking about that one time I swallowed a penny. It’s a bit all over the place, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and let’s see where the conversation takes us this time!

  • J. Cole Deserves a Holiday
    Feb 5 2025

    In this episode of Carlos’ Thoughts Podcast, I kick things off by celebrating Black History Month and reminiscing about my first African American friend, Devan aka the Black Moses. From there, I dive into my favorite artist, J. Cole, and somehow end up talking about Magic Johnson, Kendrick Lamar, and SZA. Speaking of SZA, I also get into her new movie with Keke Palmer, One of Them Days. As always, it’s a bit of a wild ride, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and let’s see where the conversation takes us this time!

  • The Michael Phelps Musical Nobody Asked For
    Jan 30 2025

    In this episode of Carlos’ Thoughts podcast, I start off talking about how weird swimming is and how I never actually learned how to do it. Then, things take an unexpected turn as I pitch a musical biopic about Michael Phelps, complete with a dream cast and a list of original song titles. Just when you think it can’t get any weirder, I wrap things up by pitching another musical biopic, this time about Magic Johnson, called Irvin, Can You Fly? It’s a wild ride, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and see where the conversation takes us!

  • I Went Vegan for 10 Minutes
    Jan 21 2025

    In this episode of Carlos’ Thoughts podcast, I start off talking about Fortnite and the infamous Impossible Starbucks sandwich. From there, things take a turn into veganism, then back out to Chappell Roan and some of her songs, before circling right back to veganism again. It’s a little chaotic, but that’s just how it goes around here. Tune in and let’s see where the conversation takes us this time!

  • OJ Simpson, Casablanca, and the Minions
    Jan 17 2025

    In this first episode of Carlos’ Thoughts Podcast, I talk about my first idea for a podcast back in 2018 and why it never came together. From there, things get pretty random. I get into the fires going on in LA, OJ Simpson and Johnnie Cochran, the Minions, Casablanca, and whatever else popped into my head while recording. It’s all over the place, but that’s kinda the point.

    Let’s see where this goes!
