Episode #203 | Eight Years In & Still Underway.

1/12/2026
Eight years ago, Alison Gieschen and her husband — a merchant marine — made a deliberate decision most people never will. They planned a ten-year circumnavigation of the world and committed to it. Not on a whim. On purpose. In this episode, Alison joins me from a friend’s boat in Bora Bora — her own Wi-Fi wasn’t cooperating, and instead of forcing it, she chose not to intrude on the show. That alone tells you a lot about who she is. We talk about what life underway actually looks like — not the romantic highlight-reel version. From the reality that there’s no such thing as downtime on a boat, to one-hour dinghy rides and five-mile walks just to get groceries, to sailing through COVID when they could keep moving but no ports would let them in. We get into being stuck in Ireland with the pubs closed, why the sailing community is as tight as it is, her favorite place so far — the Corinth Canal — and the hardest places they’ve been and why. Alison also shares why documenting the journey through blogs and books matters, her love of scuba diving (including an upcoming trip diving with sharks), and yes… why she wanted a chicken as a pet — with a diaper — and why her husband shut that idea down immediately. This conversation isn’t about escape. It’s about commitment, discipline, and perspective earned mile by mile. Still underway.

From hitting the gym and eating better, to checking in on your brothers and dropping the ego long enough to actually get that check-up done. Because being a man isn’t about ignoring the pain. It’s about owning it, learning from it, and leading by example. Whether you’re a father, brother, husband, or just someone trying to be better than yesterday — this conversation is your reminder that strength isn’t silence.

#200 - The System. The Struggle. The Son. — A Father’s Fight to Stay Present

11/8/2025
Some fights don’t happen in the ring — they happen in the courtroom, in the quiet moments, and in the space between a father and his child. In this episode, Cory opens up about what it’s like to fight for time with his son — the frustration, the heartbreak, and the moments that make it all worth it. It’s a raw look at love, fatherhood, and the system that tries to test both. This conversation isn’t polished or filtered — it’s honest. It’s about showing up when the world makes it hard, and holding on to the moments that stop time. If you’re a parent, or if you’ve ever had to fight for something that mattered more than yourself, this one’s going to hit home.

🎙️ DOME DUMP: Fall — My Second Favorite F-Word

10/18/2025
Caffeine’s flowing, sarcasm’s loaded, and we’re diving headfirst into Fall — my second favorite F-word. Talking Halloween chaos, calling out bathroom bandits at the gym (yeah, that crime scene I saw this morning), and setting the record straight — ladies, you’re not immune. I worked in bars for years... y’all can turn a restroom into a full-blown disaster movie faster than a drunk guy chasing karaoke glory.

Dressing up has roots older than we think, dating back to ancient festivals like Samhain, when people wore masks to protect themselves from wandering spirits. Over time, it evolved into what we know today — a night where identity, imagination, and rebellion all collide. Halloween costumes let us become the version of ourselves we don’t always show. The brave, the twisted, the funny, the free. Whether it’s superheroes, monsters, or some sarcastic middle finger to normal life, what we wear says something about who we are — or who we wish we could be for a night. Behind the makeup and masks, it’s still about connection — laughter, stories, and the reminder that pretending can sometimes reveal the truth.

#198 - From the Grind to the Groove: Jeff Canada on Doing Music His Way

10/3/2025
Jeff Canada spent almost 20 years grinding as a full-time musician — chasing gigs, running roads, burning it at both ends. Then he walked away. Family. Stability. A real job. But here’s the thing: he never quit music. He quit the rat race. Now Jeff’s back in the game on his own terms. No chasing, no begging, no playing songs he doesn’t believe in just to keep the lights on. He’s writing, recording, and performing what he wants, when he wants — and that’s the raw truth every creative can relate to. We talk about the grind, the reset, and the freedom that comes from finally saying “no” to what you have to do, and “yes” to what you want to do. 🎙️ Simple. Real. Powerful. That’s Be Raw. 👉 Full episodes & more: https://berawpodcast.com Get ahold of Jeff: https://www.instagram.com/jeffcanadamusic/?hl=en Sponsors who keep this chaos rolling: Live Rishi – https://liverishi.com – Use TABLE50 for 50% off.

For anyone who’s never lived it, the grind of being a full-time musician on the road is brutal. It looks glamorous from the outside — the stage lights, the crowd, the energy — but behind the curtain it’s endless miles of highway, cheap hotels, gas station food, and chasing down the next gig. The schedule isn’t 9 to 5. It’s 24/7, because when you’re not playing, you’re driving. When you’re not driving, you’re hustling for the next show. Nights blur into mornings, and the “days off” are usually just recovery days. The music industry doesn’t hand you balance — it demands sacrifice. Family time? Rare. Stability? Nonexistent. Your guitar case becomes your office, and your bandmates become your roommates. Every paycheck depends on how many tickets you sell, how many drinks the bar moves, and how long you can keep grinding without breaking down. That’s why Jeff Canada’s story hits hard. Two decades in the trenches taught him what the road takes from you, and why sometimes walking away is the strongest move you can make. Because when you come back on your own terms, it isn’t about survival anymore — it’s about the music.

#197 - That’s the Only One I Got

9/27/2025
Brains came in swinging with insults, savage humor, and one of the coldest lines I’ve ever heard. We lit each other up, laughed until we were crying, and even got into the big “what if” — like losing an inch off our dicks every time we told a racist or rude joke. Yeah, you read that right.

From smoky clubs to packed theaters, comedy has been the one place where people can say the things everyone else is afraid to admit. It’s raw, it’s risky, and it’s honest. The best stand-up comedians take real life — the pain, the absurdity, the awkwardness — and flip it into laughter. That’s why comedy keeps coming back stronger, even when the world tries to cancel it or tame it. Audiences crave the truth, and comedians deliver it in a way that cuts through the noise. This episode with Brains taps right into that. The art of stand-up isn’t just about punchlines — it’s about timing, courage, and being willing to take the hit if the room doesn’t laugh. It’s storytelling with teeth. It’s where vulnerability and savagery meet on stage. Whether you’re a die-hard comedy fan or just someone who needs to laugh at the chaos of life, this conversation proves the scene is alive, well, and ready to burn brighter than ever.

Surfing isn’t just a sport; it’s one of the oldest forms of human expression on water. Born in Polynesia and carried across Hawaii, it was more than riding waves — it was culture, community, and identity. When surfing hit California in the early 1900s, it evolved into more than tradition; it became rebellion, lifestyle, and art. From wooden boards to today’s high-performance designs, surfing has always lived outside the polished highlight reel. That’s why it still resonates. Surfing isn’t about perfection. It’s about raw balance between chaos and flow, about staring down a wave that could crush you and choosing to ride it anyway. The same reason surfers paddle out is the same reason conversations matter on Be Raw Podcast: conversations that live outside the polished highlight reel. When we talk about surfing history, we’re talking about earned perspective — stories carved into water, passed down through generations, and lived by people who know the ocean doesn’t hand out easy wins.

From the ancient Egyptians who prized it as the “flesh of the gods,” to the legendary California Gold Rush of 1849, the hunt for gold has shaped history, sparked migrations, and built entire towns. Gold prospecting has always been more than digging in the dirt—it’s adventure, risk, and the hope of striking it rich. In the American West, prospectors used simple gold pans and sluice boxes to pull flakes and nuggets from rivers, while modern gold hunters now mix tradition with technology—metal detectors, dredges, and advanced mapping. The common thread? The thrill of discovery. Gold hunting has never just been about wealth; it’s about freedom, grit, and chasing a dream. Whether you call it gold prospecting, treasure hunting, or simply the search for something bigger, the history of gold is the history of ambition. And today, people like Tom keep that tradition alive—out in the dirt, chasing the same glimmer men risked everything for centuries ago.

Back in the day, my buddy Larry (no, that’s his real name) and I had this savage little phrase we’d throw out anytime one of us got wrecked—by a girl, a song, a damn good steak—whatever: “…and there I was…” Translation? Hooked. Gone. Screwed in the best kind of way. So in honor of Larry, here it is— …and there I was… falling in love with blogging. Yeah, I said it. Writing. The thing I used to dodge like a chore is now where I process the chaos. It’s where I get honest, raw, and maybe a little dangerous with my thoughts.

Let’s talk about blogging. Not the influencer fluff or SEO-chasing drivel. I’m talkin’ about the kind of writing that leaves a mark—on the page and on your psyche. Blogging, when done right, isn’t content. It’s a controlled detonation of thoughts. It’s staring down a blinking cursor and bleeding into the void because you’ve got something to say—and no one’s handing you a mic. You want therapy? Start a blog. You want clarity? Strip your soul down and hit “publish.” Blogging is where rage, heartbreak, purpose, and grit all get a seat at the table. You don’t need a degree, a brand deal, or permission. Just guts. It’s not about writing for attention. It’s writing because if you don’t, that shit eats you alive. It’s rebellion with a keyboard. It’s telling the world, “Here’s what I’ve lived, take it or leave it.” Some blogs are clean. Some are chaos. The best ones? They’re honest. And in a world faking it for likes, that kind of honesty is rare as hell. So yeah—blogging’s not dead. It’s just been waiting for people real enough to use it right.

Explosions? Real pyrotechnics. Car chases? Metal smashing into metal. Epic battle scenes? Hundreds of extras in costume swinging swords or charging across fields. Then came CGI, and the industry changed forever. Entire worlds could be built inside a computer—castles, alien planets, entire armies—created with keystrokes. It opened up insane possibilities but also stripped away a bit of the magic. CGI can be jaw-dropping, no doubt. But when the dirt on an actor’s face came from an actual battlefield set—not a green screen—man, it just hit different. Movies got bigger, cleaner, flashier… but sometimes you can’t help but miss the chaos, imperfections, and raw reality of when it all had to be real.

Welcome to Dome Dump—raw, loud, and shit I think you need to hear. This is me, the mic, y’all listening—no notes, no mercy, and whatever’s bouncing around in my dome. Thanks for being here. Take what you want, leave the rest. Mic’s hot. I’m caffeinated. And today, I’m tearing into the truth about AI—no fluff, no filters. We’re not talking about how “cool” ChatGPT is. We’re talking about what happens when the tool starts questioning the hand holding it. 🔧 Why AI is just a wrench—but most people still don’t know how to turn a bolt 💤 How it exposes laziness faster than a bad boss 🪞 Why being replaced isn’t a threat—it’s a mirror 🐭 And what happens when AI starts seeing us the way we see mice in our homes… This one’s for the doers, the thinkers, and anyone trying to survive the future with their relevance intact.

Ep. 188 – Two White Guys Who Married Out of Their League

6/26/2025
Old friends. Same small town. Two very different paths—Army for him, blue-collar grind for me. Somehow, we both ended up blessed with badass wives and families that ground us. In this episode, we swap wild stories, talk about the questionable life choices that somehow worked out, and laugh our asses off about where we came from vs. where we are now. Oh—and he casually drops that his family tree traces back to English royalty. I told him it ain’t a tree, it’s a wreath. Real friendship. Real stories. And a damn good time reconnecting.

First Time on the Mic – My 4-Year-Old Steps Up

6/17/2025
At 4 years old, my son just took his first swing at the mic—and crushed it. No pressure, just presence. This moment reminded me that it’s not about being polished—it’s about being present and real. One mic. One kid. One proud damn dad. ’til next time Be Raw Nation – Keep kickin' ass. — Walt
