Ep. 41: It’s June (And It’s Almost Over)
Hello! Welcome to another month of trying to survive. Covid restrictions are being lifted a little more everyday in LA, so we’re talking about that and it seems like every other topic under the sun. We are LIVE Sundays twitch.tv/iozeimartian

Ep. 40: 4 Weeks
It’s been four, maybe even five weeks since my last show, so let’s catch up. This month is the 1 year anniversary of the podcast/streaming. Combined with the fact that it’s been a while, this episode is the longest episode to date. You can expect a healthy mix of tangents, brain fog, and distractions along the topics of: love/relationships, people, the state of the world and humanity, and my life. Streaming LIVE (and making up words) Sundays @ twitch.tv/iozeimartian - follow and get notified when I go on to join us in the chat!

Ep. 38: It’s April, Next Month: July.
We talk about a lot on this weeks episode: a little bit of radiation, talks on politics, death, and penises. I get upset at that fact we can’t leave each other alone and I’m sure this is all out of order. If you’d like to join us in the chats, we are LIVE Sundays twitch.tv/iozeimartian
4/12/2021 • 1 hour, 10 minutes, 51 seconds
Ep. 37: How Are You?
I’ve been gone for 4-5 weeks now, and in that time one question has been on my mind, “How are you?” How have you been? How have I been? How have we really been? We talk about this, I go off on a tangent about a couple other things and end it with a discussion about the beauties of nature. LIVE @ twitch.tv/iozeimartian
3/29/2021 • 1 hour, 8 minutes, 20 seconds
Ep. 36: 02/21/2021
The longest episode ever (I think) ! Which is funny because I wrote the least amount of notes. We get into talking about some of the things that’s been going on the couple of weeks I haven’t been on: the super bowl, germs, Valentine’s Day, and babies! I’m sure we talked about more, otherwise it wouldn’t be the longest episode. As always we are LIVE Sundays @ twitch.tv/iozeimartian
2/22/2021 • 1 hour, 26 minutes, 33 seconds
Ep. 35: It Feels Like Tomorrow Is Also January
It’s still January when we recorded this and let me start off by saying, I’m pretty sad. There was a humming in the last episode, thought I fixed it, guess not. After some tests, realizing my mic is probably broken :c so this is your hum warning ** doesn’t sound as loud as the last episode.. I think? We talk about that, a little about stocks, and a lot of me just venting through other topics because I’ve had 31 mental breakdowns so far this year. We are LIVE on Sundays twitch.tv/iozeimartian
2/1/2021 • 1 hour, 27 seconds
Ep. 34: Is January Over Yet?
This week, we talk a bit about gender & sexual identity, a bit about the people clearly upset and making videos over the presidential inauguration (is it really that much of a surprise when you’ve known the outcome since November?) and I end it with something that makes the most sense, but that I am just finding out at the delicate age of 30 something.
1/25/2021 • 1 hour, 1 minute, 36 seconds
Ep. 33: 2021 So Far
Hello! I am back after two Sundays of unexpected work and craziness. In this weeks episode we talk a little bit about what went down at the capitol, life, and briefly mention a new find in 2021. We are LIVE Sundays @ twitch.tv/iozeimartian
1/18/2021 • 1 hour, 7 minutes, 6 seconds
Ep. 32: Hella Late, But That’s Okay
My holiday break has been a complete blur, and it’s very obvious. We try to talk about the CASE act - a 5,593 page bill they’re trying to pass that could potentially hit every day streamers with fines up to $30,000. ** I did find the source afterwards, and as suspected the original article was taken down and another article put in its place. We do talk about other things, including Christmas and someone asks me a question about me that made me understand myself a little better. We are LIVE every Sunday on twitch.tv/iozeimartian

Ep. 31: [Insert Relative Title Here]
This week, I give an update on the Quilted Northern toilet paper situation, talk about the evolution of fashion and why I’m glad to be alive today, and I give my opinion on Ben Shapiro and his opinions. All this and maybe a little more. We are LIVE every Sunday on twitch.tv/iozeimartian
12/21/2020 • 1 hour, 25 seconds
Ep. 30: Another Stay at Home Order
This week is a little more organized. We start it off talking about one of the first subjects we’ve ever discussed - toilet paper and where I think it has gone during this second stay at home order. I also bring up the Chinese airlines asking their flight attendants to use diapers instead of the toilets, the fact that anyone who has earned their doctorate in ANY field can use the title Dr. (they fucking earned it), and that it is totally okay that not everybody likes you, because that’s impossible. Join us LIVE every Sunday at twitch.tv/iozeimartian

Ep. 29: Seasonal Depression Check-In
So after a really interesting work week, I decided it was time to check in on everyone. I’m not sure if we really accomplished a true mental health talk, but we talk and talk. I think this is the first episode where I actually address a troll in the chat, so there is also that. We are LIVE every Sunday twitch.tv/iozeimartian
12/7/2020 • 59 minutes, 24 seconds
Ep. 28: Chillin, No Plans

On this weeks episode we have no real plans, and end up talking about: what’s really going on with my exhaustion, my thoughts on designating a different day for food and thanks not associated with terrible shit, show off my new tree topper (obviously gotta tune in to see it) and I share my secret to always having a good b-day/ day in general! We are LIVE Sundays @ twitch.tv/iozeimartian
11/30/2020 • 1 hour, 26 seconds
Ep. 27: So far, So Good pt.2
Immediately after recording last weeks episode, I saw a post about how taxing billionaires will solve overpopulation. We discuss this, the girl who took out her frustrations on me to defend children drinking shit via Facebook comments, my toxic (or not so toxic) trait of being a sarcastic ass, and people in general.

9/28/2020 • 59 minutes, 30 seconds
Ep. 19: No Words

9/21/2020 • 59 minutes, 36 seconds
Ep. 18: New Routine
I took this week to enjoy the black outs, heatwave, and my anxiety. Originally I wanted this podcast to have a set topic for each episode, but as the year 2020 progresses I’m finding it harder to pick one topic or one thing to focus on. Every day it seems like there’s something ridiculous happening. With that being said, I tried to encourage the chat to share stories about things happening in their area, as I talk about the fires and try to remember all the things I told myself to write down. We are LIVE on twitch every Sunday at 12:30pm PST —twitch.tv/iozeimartian
9/14/2020 • 1 hour, 14 seconds
Ep. 17: Short & Sugar Free

8/31/2020 • 53 minutes, 50 seconds
Ep. 16: Who? What? When? Where? WHY?!
There have been a lot of things on my mind this week, but the main things: Why are we trying to regress as a society? Why did I get a text message asking me to vote yes on prop 16 saying it will help fight discrimination against women in the work place, but when I look up prop 16 all it says is it’s going to repeal the ban on discrimination (prop 209) ? This brought us on the subject of discrimination in general, more specifically gay marriage. We are LIVE Sundays at 12:30pm PST — twitch.tv/iozeimartian
8/24/2020 • 59 minutes, 22 seconds
Ep. 15: AMA (ask me anything) - Let’s Talk
I wanted this episode to be a couple of things: a chance to get to know my audience better and to give the people who are only tune in to the podcast a taste of the AMAs (I also wanted to take a break from thinking too much about all the craziness that is 2020) so I gave this episode to the people in the chat and let them set the tone for what we talked about today. I said it in the show and I’ll take it again, thank you all so much for tuning in! We are LIVE every Sunday 12:30pm PST — twitch.tv/iozeimartian
8/17/2020 • 57 minutes, 59 seconds
Ep. 14: Battery Low : Time to Recharge.
It has been a very long week, anything that can go wrong has. My anxiety is through the roof, which means depression has also begun to sink in.. and we also get into something that I wanted to save for another time, but what better time than the present (I guess) to talk about something that straight up confuses you? We are LIVE every Sunday at — twitch.tv/iozeimartian
8/10/2020 • 50 minutes, 49 seconds
Ep. 13: Back To School
I wanted episode 13 to be spooky, and what’s spookier than sending your child back to school during this pandemic? Listen as I share my feelings about the homeless people who have taken over the elementary school behind my apartment, the school districts that have opened, the thing that happened at summer camp this year, and my own personal experience with viruses. We are LIVE every Sunday (12:30pm PST) on twitch.tv/iozeimartian
8/3/2020 • 1 hour, 25 seconds
Ep. 12: The Biggest Joke There Ever Was
We’re back again, talking about coronavirus. Why? Because it’s still a thing affecting all of our lives. Los Angeles has gone back into lockdown, so has Florida; Australia has made masks mandatory, and people are getting shot and killed in France simply for doing their job. If you are one of those people who refuse to wear a mask, out of the hatred of your own heart, ask yourself: how much more selfish could I possibly get? We are LIVE every Sunday twitch.tv/iozeimartian
7/27/2020 • 59 minutes, 45 seconds
Ep. 11: No Official Title/ No Topic
I thought I had a heart attack last Saturday (I’m okay!!) so I spent the week resting and focused on my health. I didn’t have anything planned for this weeks episode or even begun to think about next weeks. So what did I talk about? My health, chatted with people in the live chat about things on their mind and always bringing up how we are each our own individual persons with our own needs, wants, opinions, bodies, etc.. Why do I keep bringing that up? Because it seems that every week someone needs a reminder. And maybe I do too. I host this show live every Sunday on Twitch! — twitch.tv/iozeimartian

6/29/2020 • 54 minutes, 15 seconds

6/17/2020 • 43 minutes, 41 seconds
Ep. 5: AMERICA UNITED!
**** FOR ANYONE LISTENING and NOT WATCHING I APOLOGIZE - something happened with the audio as I was recording and I lost it all. So, if sounds off, that is why **** Once again, I find myself talking about what’s going on in America. Why? Because I can’t stop thinking about it - I can’t stop, won’t stop. What’s happening right now is ridiculous. After listening back to this I realize that there a few things I will need to clarify, and there are a few new facts and questions that have come up - since recording this and publishing it - that I will readdress in the next episode. (My brain is exhausted - but I’m still trying.) Please feel free to join me in an open discussion, as I talk about these things live on Twitch -- twitch.tv/iozeimartian -- I am always accepting and open to new points of view, and I’d love to hear from you.

Ep. 4: Relationships and Communication (pt.1)
Geared up to talk about relationships and communication this week, I was deeply affected by the events unfolding in the world around me and couldn’t stop thinking about it all. I tried my best to tie it in to relationships and communication, but ultimately failed and end up spilling all of my thoughts out as coherently as possible, about equality and racial injustice. Ep. 4 is also the first go at running the show LIVE! — Join me Sundays at 12pmPST — twitch.tv/iozeimartian — Please bare with me as I work out all of the kinks, like I keep saying, I’m new to all of this and still learning - and you guys are here to witness all of it! :) So thank you for your continuous patience and never ending support as I mold this show to my vision. I want to hear from you! Come chat with me live on twitch. IMO W/ IO is EVERY SUNDAY, but I will be doing live AMAs (ask me anythings.. and I do mean pretty much anything) so keep checking my twitch schedule for updates on those dates!!! You can always watch any episode on YouTube as well — https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7o6iiKbDuYV-PERoKk5oOw — or listen pretty much anywhere you listen to podcasts. Thank you guys so much! 💖 I CAN’T THANK YOU ENOUGH!!!! I really do appreciate and recognize all of you for making the beginning of this journey incredibly special for me! 💖 ***Also, after much debate with myself over how descriptions are supposed to be written, I ultimately decided I hate writing these descriptions in third person, it’s just me here, feels a little informal for me - a person trying to interact with their audience - and since I formally identify myself as they/them when writing, it can get a little confusing to read.. as I quickly found out when I started writing them.

Ep. 1: Life in Lockdown
The world has been turned upside down by COVID-19. This pandemic has brought up a lot of new conspiracy theories, protests, and a lot of troll-worthy material. After a quick introduction and a lesson on fact vs. opinion, Z tries to jam all of their thoughts from the last 8 weeks into one episode. Can they do it? Let’s find out.
