Emerson Dameron's Medicated Minutes

Annoucement!
Emerson Dameron's Medicated Minutes
04/08/24 • 1 min
Quick announcement about some of my IRL meatspace doings.
If you are in the Los Angeles area, I will appear Live! on Risk! The live storytelling show that goes there! On Tuesday, April 16th, at the Lyric Hyperion.
Get yr tickets so it won't be crickets.
If you are not in the LA area, I'll do it anyway. Your life will be touched by the second-order effects of the pure thrills of the attendees at that show as I kill them softly with my song.
it will be a true story, a story of true love of the sort that perhaps only I am capable of. There will be no obfuscation or nebulosity. You'll have a great time, and so will I, especially if you are there.
Tickets are available! But, for how long?
Show up, hang out together, and only together, we will end the loneliness epidemic.
You don't have to do anything. I will provide the entertainment. All you have to do is sit there. You don't even have to laugh. I don't want you to laugh unless you want to. Or unless you laugh involuntarily. That's the best kind.
Tuesday, April 16th, the Lyric Hyperion in Los Angeles. Be there. It's the only thing in Los Angeles that night worth doing.

Embrace Chaos: Self-Love, Sadism, and the Power of Creativity
Emerson Dameron's Medicated Minutes
10/03/24 • 61 min
What if the very things you think you can't control are exactly where your power lies? On this episode of Medicated Minutes, we challenge you to rethink the inevitability of life's events and the importance of personal responsibility, all wrapped in Emerson Dameron's signature humor and wit. We kick off with a passionate monologue that tackles these existential themes head-on, urging you to embrace life's chaos rather than resist it. From the ironies of trying to stop the unstoppable to finding freedom in the mundane, we present a philosophy that turns conventional wisdom on its head.
Can you love yourself without succumbing to the trap of fame? We then pivot to a deep-dive into the paradoxical dance between self-love and sadism, exploring how public attention can wreak havoc on mental health. By drawing parallels with historical figures and examining consensual sadistic practices, we illustrate the necessity of rigorous self-discipline and mutual respect for personal growth. This segment is a hard-hitting look at how embracing one's flaws and leveraging past pain can pave the way for true healing and transformation.
Finally, we explore the transformative power of shedding one's ego and embracing observational awareness. Through the poignant story of Scarlet Obscura, a Nova Scotian artist seeking meaning in Los Angeles, we emphasize the importance of creativity and curiosity in understanding both ourselves and others. This narrative serves as a testament to the power of art and self-expression amidst life's unpredictability. Tune in to discover how you can harness creativity, humor, and empathy to navigate the chaos of existence and find deeper meaning in everyday life.

Podcast Q&A
Why did you start this show?
I'm very interested in self-improvement, and not in a detached way. I believe self-help is the most revealing and most often overlooked facet of the American literary canon. Probably most importantly, since I was 14, I've been heavily inspired by the radio programs of the late Joe Frank, and the show is my humble tribute to his genius.
What do you hope listeners gain from listening to your show?
Catharsis, poetry, paradox, dark humor, surrealism, and surprise.
Which episode should someone start with?
Don't start from the beginning! Anything before this year is a crapshoot. Start with Reciprocity Now or get the best-of collection.
Which have been your favourite episodes so far?
I became a big fan of the show during mid-2023, with Fear of Death is the Beginning of All Foolishness, Ask a Sadist, and Reciprocity Now, and I know for a near-certainty that the best is yet to come.
Which episode are you most proud of?
Reciprocity Now
What is your vision for your show?
As the show gets better, I'm inspired to put more work into it. The episodes I have planned for 2024 are way, way more risky, complex, and well-thought-out than anything I've done previously.
What is your favourite other podcast that isn't yours?
Desert Oracle. The Duncan Trussell Family Hour. A few others.
How did you come up with the name for your podcast?
Originally, I'd planned to focus on mental health, various psychopharmaceuticals I've tried, and other drug experiments, some of which I conducted live on the air. It's taken a broader focus since then, although those things still come up. "Medicated Minutes" is also a song by Smut Peddlers, from which I shamelessly cribbed the name.
