Back at it again Shore Thing Pod Nation! Happy to be back for an episode nine. The crew sit down with the head of the Context Is Everything Media Network/Talent CEO, Dr. Lotto, and his first client, JM Cooks! Topics of conversation include how the whole city of Asbury Park came together to celebrate for the revival of the Asbury Park Music Awards and the crew provide their thoughts on the event. We also discuss the significance of not only creating the art, but the social media content the artist must create behind the scenes to make a name for themselves, and all the challenges/rewards that comes with it. We get into who the infamous Dr.Lotto is and how he found his way into the scene, all the art he’s created, and what it is like to manage talent. Thanks for listening!

Teddi, Matt, Charlie, Joey are back together for the first time in 2026, and we’re talking all things February! In Kim’s absence, we have our first special guest to the show, Joey’s fiancé, Sam! We talk about rodents predicting the weather, and how that holiday is flawed! We also talk about all things that make Valentine’s Day a good holiday for us! We also talk about how we are surviving this winter. Warmer days are ahead, stay with us chat.

Kim, Charlie, Teddi, Paulie, and Joey dive into all the holiday events that get them into the Christmas spirit. From their favorite traditions and movies, to the festive happenings around town so far, the crew shares what makes this season feel special. They open up about what gets them through the holidays, reflect on what they’re thankful for this year, and look ahead at what’s to come.

Thanks for being part of this ride with It’s a Shore Thing — the holiday episode is one you won’t want to miss! 🎄✨
