ROCK CRAWLING RC AND OTHER RABBIT HOLES: Back To Unscripted

A laggy webcam and an old Mac kick off a surprisingly honest grab-bag chat that jumps from Jerk's problems to real-world consequences. I talk through what I’m changing in my workflow, why I’m recording on CapCut, and how a simple edit pass can make a podcast feel smoother without turning it into a glossy production. If you care about podcasting, video recording, or just keeping your setup running without buying a new machine, you’ll hear the practical stuff like RAM upgrades, storage, and why I’m still uneasy about putting everything in the cloud. Then we pivot into hobbies and the kind of community that actually feels doable. I’ve been looking at RC cars, especially RC rock crawling, and I break down why it looks fun: the upgrades, the mechanical tinkering, and the slower “race” format. There’s also a personal angle about crowds, pickle ball, and why I often choose hobbies I can do solo, while still wanting a small circle to interact with. From there, I scroll headlines and land on stories that range from political memes and media reactions to gut-punch tragedy. The Table Rock Lake duck boat story leads to a serious talk about safety basics like life jackets and decision-making under pressure. I also share thoughts on recreational marijuana legalization in New York, including the public impact, edibles, and why child safety and emergency room visits keep coming up in the debate. If any of these topics hit a nerve, subscribe, share the episode, and leave a review, then tell me what you think. #theobjectivejerk #podcastlife #livingabroad #expat #veteranlivinginphilippines #passport bro #conspiracies #politics #popculture #livinginthephilippines #truecrime https://objectivejerk.buzzsprout.com FIND ME ON: X - @theobjectivejerk INSTAGRAM- the objective jerk FACEBOOK- objective jerk podcast TIK TOK- objective jerk
