Valley Tales with West Coast Güero
Surprise, surprise! Finally gotta a new episode for ya! In April of 2024, I—the West Coast Güero—had to check into the ER which subsequently sent me into emergency surgery to fix a case of blood clots. Yes, that’s CLOTS, plural, with an “s.” Scary stuff. Not casual at all. Unbeknownst to me, I had been living with DVT for up to possibly 10 years, maybe even longer. We’ll never know for sure their age! But it was so long, in fact, that after the original clot sat comfortably for a while, a second vein joined the party and formed its own. I was diagnosed with an extremely rare blood...

Good morrow, brethren. We are long overdue for another installment of campfire nostalgia, and so, let's gather!

003 - Get Outta My Bus & Into My Dreams :: 5/21/18
Valley Tales with West Coast Güero
We're back, and very much still in business! Micah has had to take some time to dabble in real life duties the last couple few months, but, alas, the warmth of the summer campfire is glowing upon us again. The tales this week involve the theme of the "outer limits," and what can happen when things are pushed passed what is accepted as normal. First up, we dip back to the opening week of 2006, as Micah began his New Year with a puzzle to solve with his former roommates, in Echo Park, CA. In a time when medical cannabis and social media were still relatively new, and smart phones were not...
info_outlineGood morrow, brethren. We are long overdue for another installment of campfire nostalgia, and so, let's gather! We face very perplexing and uncharted waters in this modern age, and Sindependent Media would like to extend positivity and hope that you are all safe and staying vigilant! It's ok to be dealing with, and mitigating, big ol' balls of stress, we are all human; but here, we present to you a bit of distraction during this global pandemic, in the form of a Valley Tales episode.
Episode 005 was originally recorded in early June of 2018, and Micah covered the topic of "colorful break-ups." We begin in the Summer of 1994, at age 14, when Micah met his first love, his ruca, his always & forever... But by that Fall, his ruca suddenly stopped accepting his mixtapes, and told him that it was over. Crushed, but crafty, Micah came up with his own creative way of handling the curveballs of youthful emotions.
In the second half of the episode, the focus shifts to the early months of 2007 - age 27. Another break-up, another crafty (or foolhardy?) method of self therapy. This time amidst the backdrop of pre-smartphone Los Angeles (oh, it was a glorious time, sorry if you missed it!). A hotheaded version of a late 20s Micah gets presented with a life altering scenario near a crosswalk in downtown LA. Trucha, of the vida loca, my carnales. Orale. And stay casual.
