Hey Yall Hey! Welcome to another episode of Grown & Opinionated.  The word of the day is hypocrisy.  New allegations came out about every rapper’s favorite rapper and the internet and culture went into a frenzy with one media person proclaiming “He has a family…. “ LMAO.  What they really wanted to say was “He has a family which includes Mother Queen Beyonce so now it’s important.” I guess Diddy’s family isn’t important.  SMH.  Say it with me “HYPOCRISY”.  Let’s talk about it.    

We’re also taking about Andrew Schulz making a joke about “making love” to Kendrick Lamar.  The internet once again is in a frenzy about this comment.   However, how many movies, shows and songs make fun of male prison rape and no one says ish.  BUT NOW it’s America’s favorite rapper  - this year- we have a problem? Repeat after me “HYPOCRISY”. 

You already know what to do.  Tap in and join the conversation.

Welcome to another episode of the Spun Today Podcast with your host, Tony Ortiz—the show anchored in writing and limitless in scope. In this episode, Tony dives deep into the creative process and storytelling power behind Andrew Schulz's latest Netflix comedy special, "Life." You'll hear how Schulz's masterful blend of vulnerability, humor, and innovative production offers rich lessons for writers and creatives alike. 

Tony also takes us behind the scenes at Ari Shaffir's final live storytelling show, celebrating artistic integrity, perseverance, and the unbreakable bond of creative community—even in the face of industry setbacks. From learning how to mine personal struggles for resonant stories, to understanding the importance of owning your creative work, Tony distills profound inspiration from comedy, current events, and personal experience. 

Plus, he shares his perspective on the upcoming New York City mayoral election, breaks down the legendary Warner Bros deal by Ryan Coogler in the latest "Goats Doing Goat Shit" segment, and, as always, serves up actionable insights for fellow writers, storytellers, and dream-chasers. 

So, whether you're looking for writing motivation, creative strategies, or just a fresh take on culture through a storyteller’s lens, you’ve come to the right place. Let's get started!  &nbsp;  

The Spun Today Podcast is a Podcast that is anchored in Writing & Random Rants, but unlimited in scope. Give it a whirl.
