Episode 62 - Steven Ing -- What if you could prove that being Gay/Trans was genetic?

At first glance you could define Icarus Bell as the musical collaboration between Alan Alski Adams and Matt Noveskey... But Icarus Bell is more than the sum of their parts. Their sound is as diverse as the band's that influenced them. It's no secret that Alan and Matt have a shared history with Blue October and are no strangers to the rock n roll lifestyle. Keeping all this in mind we discussed the hypothetical, "What if alcoholic beverages never existed?" We examine how life would be affected without one of the most arguably dangerous drugs known to man, alcohol. During this discussion we discover a familiarity of how alcohol affected our personal lives. Laughter and very sober (pardon the pun) conversation ensued. Matt and Alan are very awesome guys and their music is stellar. You can find Icarus Bell online at: Instagram - @icarusbellofficial Twitter - @BellIcarus Website - Icarusbellofficial.com

In this episode we had the pleasure of talking to Molly Sinn. Molly was a legal prostitute before the pandemic hit. Our podcast is sex worker positive and Molly is a prime example of showing that the unfair perception of this profession does not always define the person. Molly is very opinionated and intelligent. She is very family oriented and very sarcastic and fun to talk to. The hypothetical that Molly chose was, "What if Psychosis is "feedback" from other dimensions?" We discuss all the possibilities inherent in this question. Is it possible that some of our experiences are echoes emanating from other realities? The line between here and there is discussed along with funny and lively ponderings. You can find Molly online at: Instagram : @MollySinns
