The Story Behind the Sesh

I’m Justin Barone, and I’ve spent the last five years staring into the void of the internet and wondering how we all got here. Thoughts Off The Stem (TOTS420) is my attempt to make sense of the beautifully weird and deeply ironic way humans navigate the world.

I didn’t start this podcast because I have all the answers; I started it because I have a lot of questions about things most people just ignore. Think of this as your weekly reality check—the kind of conversation you have with a friend who’s just observant enough to notice the absurdity in everything, from viral trends to the “logic” of modern society.

What’s the Vibe?

• The Human Glitch: I’m a fan of the awkward, the ironic, and the “why is this happening?” moments of life. I’m not here to fix the world; I’m just here to point out the parts that don’t make sense.
• Infused Philosophy: This is a cannabis-infused space, but it’s not just about the high. It’s about the perspective. We talk education, strains, and how the plant helps us find our footing in a messy world.
• Parenting & Adulthood: I share the reflections that only come when you finally sit with your thoughts—usually the ones that make you realize we’re all just winging it.

If you’re looking for a script or a lecture, you’re in the wrong place. But if you appreciate a sarcastic look at the “simulation” we’re living in, pull up a chair. New seshisodes drop every Friday at 4:20 PM.

Stay elevated. Stay curious.
