Alpha-Bytes Ep. 17 | Q is for Queer
Members of the LGBTQ+ community have long been and continue to unfairly be cast as outsiders. Special guest Doyle Cowart leads a discussion with Raysan and Zachary about carrying that burden, compartmentalizing identities and healthily engaging with those we think of as “queer”.
Alpha-Bytes Ep. 16 | P is for Phineas
This is an episode for all the pet owners and dog lovers out there. Raysan and Zachary reminisce about adopting their dog and the rough training that followed. Raysan draws parallels to parenting and Zachary eats some humble pie.
Alpha-Bytes Ep. 15 | O is for Oil Dependency
It is a severely limited resource over which wars continue to be fought. So how did we end up in this predicament and how can we get out of it? Why does Zachary think not caring for creation is sinful? In this episode Raysan stays curious and Zachary gets a bit preachy.

Alpha-Bytes Ep. 14| N is for Nerd
There’s a nerd alert going off at Alpha-Bytes. Raysan and Zachary host a round-table discussion about what is popularly called “nerd-dom.” Why are nerds so passionate? How did the fringe sub-cultures become mainstream and how does that affect its artistic integrity? Why won’t Hollywood showcase Asian superheroes? Worst episode ever!

*We apologize for the less-than-desirable sound quality. There were some unresolvable technical issues but we did our best.
**Zachary is aware of his mistakes. For the nerd record Superman first appeared in Action Comics #1 in 1938, Kamala Khan (Ms. Marvel) is Pakistani, not Indian, and as luck would have it immediately after recording he recalled several comic books with Asian leads, but the episode had to be cut at some point.
Alpha-Bytes Ep. 13 | M is for Music
By far the art form that has been most influential in both their lives, Zachary and Raysan share about their personal experience with music. Join them as they expound upon synchronicity among band members, the way music influences us through various elements, and learning guitar to score dates.
Alpha-Bytes Ep. 12 | L is for Legality
How should we differentiate between morality and legality? Does the effectiveness of a law matter or is it purely an expression of desired values? Is there any merit to harm-reduction theory or decriminalization? Raysan and Zachary (joined by the self-proclaimed “podcast supervillain”) evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of traditional systems in another controversial episode.
