Burner Podcast - Episode #3 to #18

Burner Podcast

For our first messy, bairly duct-taped together show, it only felt right to have a chat with Brady: A man who has been a quiet force behind transforming San Diego's little decompression to the full-on regional burn it is today. Arash and Brady also talk politics, Facebooks and Texas.

Burner Podcast Episode 1: Brady Mahaney, OG Community Leader

Arash and Thanasi chat about TED Talks, community building tactics and the differences between New York burners and Southern California hippies.

Episode 2﻿: Thanasi Glavas, Community Organizer

Arash and Aliss get tipsy and discuss the emotional process of changing one's self, the business of life coaching and not quitting film production even after all your stuff gets jacked in Egypt.

Episode 3: Aliss Wang, Life Coach and Filmmaker

Powered only by her will and cough drops, Nicole talks to Arash about Burning Man bureaucracy, turnkey camps, playa politics and what exactly constitutes a "burner."

Episode 4: Nicole Hickman, Regional Contact

Taz talks to a very nervous Arash about crashing a satellite into the moon to create a new crater, fire safety and the regret that comes with spray-painting one’s entire naked body on the playa.

Episode 5: Taz, SDCAP Board Member, Technologist

Arash gives Marc a lot of jealous side-eye because of his awesome radio voice while they chat about fire-spinning safety, sky-diving into Black Rock City and that feeling of invincibility you get after your first burn.

Episode 6: Marc Leglise, Sky Diver & Fire Spinner

Arash and Jake fan the flames of a budding bromance with talks of theghostdiaries.com, atheism and robot sex. Plus Arash may or may not totally perpetuate a lie about Jake.

Episode 7: Jake Anderson, Writer & Filmmaker

Camber and Arash talk consent, gay polyamory and how nice people in Portland are. There is also a beautiful moment of shared tears followed promptly by Arash whining about his ex again. 

Episode 12: Camber Hollywood, Portland Burner and SD Board Member
