The Ways of A Gentleman: How to Raise Gentlemen, Leisure, and Public Dress Codes We Forgot

Join me as I sit down once more with J.B. Lloyd - this time to talk through his last two books: The Leisure of a Gentleman and the just-released The Ways of a Young Gentleman, his 16-week curriculum for boys ages 10–18 on character, leadership, etiquette, confidence, and practical life skills. Hey, it's really interesting! I promise. We also get into how people actually dress in airports, ideas for raising better children instead of just more comfortable ones, and whatever else comes up once the conversation starts wandering. So pour yourself any beverage of your choice and join us for another episode of Sipapalooza! Kindly order lotsa stuff at CampfireShoppe.com

Why Celebrity Culture is Finally Dead. What Will Replace It?

Celebrity culture is over. Not “evolving.” Over. Nobody is waiting for the next baby announcement, divorce leak, or red-carpet interview. The old stars still act like strangers owe them attention. They don’t. Their personal lives are content with no audience. The only time they trend is when there is a death, or in the case of nepo babies, their dead parent’s name is attached to the story. The next famous people won’t be actors, athletes, or nepo kids. They’ll be the people who build AI characters — and the characters themselves. Faces that never age, never get caught, never ask you to care that they had a baby. Creators who understand the assignment: give people a story, not a lifestyle to worship. This show is about the collapse of the old fame machine and the rise of the one replacing it. Why the public checked out. Why celebrities still haven’t noticed. And why the most magnetic “person” of the next decade may not be a person at all.

Why Did Sean Lennon BLOCK Me on X?

Sean Lennon blocked me on X. Maybe it was his assistant, lawyer, or whoever runs the account. Doesn’t matter. It still happened, and it was petty. Kindly listen to the podcast and let me know what your thoughts are about this? If a musician on social media writes "GO FOR IT" and encourages a filmmaker to create a music video with his music, is that permission to do so? Yes, it was informal, but "go for it" sure sounds like a greenlight to me! Kindly let me know.

Should There be An AI John Lennon

Imagine the day coming when you can go on whatever your favorite tech is (computer, cell phone, whatever is coming next) and you could speak to an AI John Lennon and ask him about his life and career? None of what he shares will be invented. It would be based upon all publicly available info out there already. I use John Lennon as an example because everyone knows who he was, but this conversation is really about the future of AI celebrities. AI Scott Adams already exists. Which celebrity will be next?

How I am Producing the Life at the Dakota AI Dramatic Series. Part 02

How I am Producing the Life at the Dakota AI Dramatic Series. Part 01 I am producing a dramatic series about LIFE AT THE DAKOTA apartment building in NYC, most famous as the home of John Lennon. I plan to produce at least 1 episode a month for the next 60 months. Yes, that's 5 years. I have written 14 prologues in order to introduce the characters and their lives in the 19th century. The prologues are all pre-1880. The 60 episodes I have in development take place between 1880-1900 with the exception of episode one (1) which includes flashbacks. The technology will improve over time but I am committed to creating recurring characters you will enjoy seeing and hearing. About half the cast are Dakota residents, while the rest are staff, mostly those who worked in the private restaurant and in the basement kitchen. This is a ton of work and I am doing it all myself. At least for now I am. I will be releasing the prologues first. Kindly join me at Patreon/StrangeHistory to be the first to see everything as it comes together and exclusive content.

Moonwatcher: Dan Richter Talks Beatles, John & Yoko, Stanley Kubrick, and More! Part 02

Kindly check out my latest episode of Sipapaplooza. I have a conversation with my friend DAN RICHTER. He is a legendary MIME who was hired by Stanley Kubrick to star in and choreograph the Dawn of Man sequence in 2001: A Space Odyssey. He is also a poet and an artist who was great friends with John and Yoko. In fact, he lived at Tittenhurst Park longer than they did and has amazing memories of NYC and London in the 1960s, and living at the Chelsea Hotel in NYC.

Is Tipping Culture Dead? What's the Future of Neighborhoods and Parenting? Johnny Depp and the Death of the Star System. And more!

Welcome back, fellow time travelers. Grab your matcha latte (or mead, cider, coffee—whatever fuels you) and settle in for another Sipapalooza. This episode dives into the everyday absurdities and bigger cultural shifts shaping 2026. I start with tipping culture: how a once-optional reward for good service mutated into a mandatory guilt tax forced on customers by apps, tablets, and post-pandemic norms—and why it’s time to end it. Then it’s pure Gen X nostalgia as I revisit 1980s record stores through the lens of a great Rick Beato + Professor of Rock conversation: the bins, the clerks, the physical discovery that algorithms can’t replace. I unpack the future of neighborhoods and parenting amid cratering birth rates, rising single living, and the growth of intentional co-parenting and mutual-aid models. Next, Johnny Depp’s post-trial Hollywood return becomes a case study in the collapse of the old star system—where franchises and IP now matter more than any single face, and generative AI is waiting in the wings. I also call out the flood of low-effort AI history “slop” saturating social feeds and why a correction toward real substance is inevitable. I close by paraphrasing 10 practical, no-nonsense lessons from Scott Adams on systems over goals, talent stacks, energy management, affirmations, and more. Real talk on culture, tech, nostalgia, and practical living. Share your thoughts in the comments—do you still tip? Miss record stores? Care about celebrities anymore? Safe travels on all your journeys! Scott

Welcome back, fellow time travelers. Pour a matcha latte (or mead, cider, or whatever you fancy) and settle in for another freewheeling episode of Sipapalooza.This round we revisit the 2004 epic Troy—its stellar cast, box-office success, and how it handled Homer’s Iliad—then contrast it with Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey and the modern Hollywood pressures that shaped its casting and tone. We also dig into the rising wave of AI filmmaking (including Roger Avary’s planned Paradise Lost and an interview with Kavan the Kid), the flood of low-effort AI content on social media, National Black Cat Appreciation Day, the lasting cultural shadow of Elvis Presley’s death, a handful of practical life hacks, and the host’s own focused plans for the next five years: podcasts over endless YouTube videos, AI “Quickies” on Beatles homes, ongoing documentary series, Patreon projects, and more.
