Human: Unfiltered

In this episode, I sit down with Lil Ribbit for a raw and deeply human conversation. We talk about their journey of self-discovery as an asexual and aromantic person, growing up in the Mormon church and eventually leaving, and how trauma can leave lasting effects on both mind and body. #interview

🙏

Julian reflects on his bond with his brother — a lifelong creative partner and adventure buddy. From growing up with the mindset of “two against the world” to planning trips and sharing dreams as adults, their relationship remains one of his strongest sources of support and inspiration. #convo

Mission accomplished.

Julian shares his dream as an artist: to create music that connects deeply and becomes the soundtrack to life’s biggest moments. Whether it’s a wedding, a moment of grief, or a late-night drive with friends, he hopes his songs can capture what makes life truly meaningful. #humanunfiltered #music

Julian Bugbee is a Kalamazoo-based musician with roots in Detroit’s suburbs. A multi-instrumentalist and composer, Julian reflects on growing up in a split family, the role reading and writing play in shaping his songs, and why music is so deeply human. #humanunfiltered #music #connection

Grace reflects on the overwhelming, life-altering fatigue caused by cancer treatment — a level of exhaustion far beyond normal tiredness. In this heartfelt moment, Grace captures a reality that can only be fully understood by those who have lived it. #humanunfiltered #cancersurvivor #stage4cancer

Foxen shares her incredible journey through childhood homelessness, undiagnosed autism, and bipolar disorder—and how art, fandom, and self-expression helped her survive and grow. From drawing and digital art to chaotic fursuit attempts, her story is raw, funny, and deeply human. #humanunfiltered

At 15, Iris kept writing the word hope on their wrist to remind themself not to self-harm. They promised that if they made it through high school, they’d make it permanent. At 19 they did just that. This is the story of survival behind their first tattoo. #humanunfiltered #cultsurvivor #iris

Iris shares their story of a restrictive upbringing in a traditional Catholic homeschooling cult. In this clip, they explain how their parents’ beliefs took a sharp turn—sparked by a new pastor’s liberal views and a clash over birth control in their local church. #humanunfiltered #cultsurvivor

For Rozbot, clowning isn’t just about jokes or costumes—it’s about connection. In this clip, she shares how storytelling, character work, and building joy through shared experiences are at the heart of what makes her performances truly special. #humanunfiltered #rozbot #realstories #transjoy

Natalie keeps it real—she’s just a girl who loves her cat and the Kardashians. But as a trans woman who passes, she uses that privilege to help open doors for others, even in spaces where she might not be fully welcome herself. This is what quiet advocacy looks like. #humanunfiltered #natalie #tran

Micah Dailey-White talks about the heart of his comedy—that one friend we all know. Whether it's the friend with a thousand excuses or the one who never stops talking, his sketches tap into real-life humor and relatable chaos. #humanunfiltered #micahdaileywhite #realstories #youtubechannel

Henry (aka Headband Henny) breaks down why his music isn’t as intense as Kendrick’s—and who he vibes with more. In this clip, he talks about keeping it fun, light, and party-friendly, and why Drake or Tyler, the Creator feel like a better fit for his style. #humanunfiltered #headbandhenny #viral

Micah Dailey-White used to go by a different name—because he didn’t think anyone would ever buy a ticket with his real name on it. In this clip, he opens up about that insecurity and what it means to finally feel seen and supported as himself. #humanunfiltered #micahdaileywhite #realstories

Natalie shares her deep love for makeup and the powerful boundary she sets: she only puts it on or takes it off for herself. In a world where appearance is often policed, her approach is a reminder that beauty should be self-defined — and self-owned. #humanunfiltered #natalie #realstories

At the University of Chicago, Rozbot was on track for med school—until she realized the path required a mindset she couldn’t embrace. In her words, “You kind of have to have a bit of a God complex.” #humanunfiltered #rozbot #realstories

Natalie opens up about the duality of her childhood — moving between struggle and stability, carrying heavy experiences while looking like any other happy kid. Now, as an adult, she’s found strength in those early challenges. #humanunfiltered #transvoices #realstories

Rozbot reflects on balancing two worlds: football and dance. In college, after losing weight and helping start a hip-hop dance crew, she began prioritizing joy over pressure. #humanunfiltered #rozbot #realstories

Some people communicate through music. Micah may not always speak like a scholar but rhythm & melody fills those gaps. #humanunfiltered #micahdaileywhite

Rozbot breaks down her iconic make-up and the lengths it takes to perform without your face melting off. #rozbot #humanunfiltered #clowngirl

Being honest with yourself isn't always easy. Listen to Micah talk about how being honest with himself was a hard talk, but a necessary one. #humanunfiltered #micahdaileywhite

Henry shares how flirting at a friends house ended up with him marrying the love of his life. Who knew footsies could lead to marital bliss? #humanunfiltered #headbandhenny #newlyweds

Natalie shares her perspective on disclosing her trans identity while dating. She emphasizes the importance of doing it on her terms — not out of shame, but because it’s a meaningful part of how relationships evolve. #transdating #humanunfiltered #transgender

This beautiful insight from Rozbot is the entire reason I wanted to interview her. Check out her amazing performance and mindset! #humanunfiltered youtube.com/shorts/v-2tL...

Riding your bike for hours just to support a friend's musical aspirations is impressive and incredible. Our community isn't quite as magical without Jeffrey but his love won't soo be forgotten. #humanunfiltered

Natalie opens up about her complicated relationship with religion. Though she still believes in God, the trauma she experienced — especially within Baptist churches — has kept her away from organized Christianity. Healing from religious trauma is a long journey, and she’s still walking it. #religion

Israel isn’t just posturing against Iran or Syria—it's escalating conflict across the region while committing genocide against Palestinians. Bombing refugee camps, blockading aid, and displacing millions isn’t defense. It’s domination. And the world needs to say so. #CeasefireNOW #FreePalestine

In this episode of Human: Unfiltered, we sit down with Foxen, a member of the furry community, for a conversation filled with vulnerability, imagination, and truth. #furry #humanunfiltered #interviewseries

The U.S. says it’s close to finalizing multiple trade deals—just days before a wave of Trump-era tariffs kick back in on August 1. Countries aligned with BRICS could face even steeper penalties. The threat of tariffs is back on the table, and markets are already feeling it. #trumptariffs #trade

Central Texas just lost 27 lives—many of them children—to flash flooding that rose 29 feet overnight. We have the tech to prevent this. What we don’t have is the will. Updated maps, safer infrastructure—these save lives. Cutting climate funding isn’t “fiscal responsibility.” It’s negligence. #usa

Trump and Zelenskiy held a call today to discuss Ukraine’s need for more air defense systems, including Patriots, as Russian strikes intensify. The call came after the U.S. paused some weapons shipments. Hours later, Russia launched its largest drone and missile attack on Kyiv to date. #ukraine

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is a Reverse-Robin Hood heist: 💸 Massive tax cuts for the rich 💔 Medicaid slashed for 12 million low-income families 📉 $5 trillion more in national debt They’re not building a stronger economy—they’re gutting poor folks to fatten billionaires. #bigbeautifulbill #usa

Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is back in the House—loaded with tax cuts for the rich, deep Medicaid cuts, and a $5 trillion debt bomb. Republicans are fighting each other over it. Democrats are united against it. Meanwhile, 12 million people could lose health care. All for a billionaire’s PR stunt.

Sean “Diddy” Combs was acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering, but found guilty of transporting individuals for prostitution—charges that carry up to 10 years. The jury didn’t see coercion, but didn’t see innocence either. Fame doesn’t erase accountability. Sentencing awaits. #diddytrial

Elon Musk’s mad Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” adds trillions to the debt—so now he’s threatening to start the America Party. Trump’s firing back, threatening to investigate Musk’s companies. Just two billionaires slap-fighting while we pay the price. #dumptrump #fElonmusk #bigbeautifulbill #fdt

Immigration raids are leaving crops to rot in California fields. Farmers can’t find labor. Prices are rising. And we’re heading into a food crisis—manufactured by political cruelty. This doesn’t just hurt immigrants. It hurts all of us. Empty shelves and higher bills are coming. #abolishICE #usa

Reuters confirms Syrian forces massacred nearly 1,500 Alawite civilians in March. Survivors describe torture, mutilation, and execution—coordinated across 40 towns. The chain of command leads straight to Damascus. No justice. No charges. Silence. This is a war crime, and the world cannot look away.

The Senate just advanced Trump’s tax bill. It slashes Medicaid, strips housing and energy support, and sends billions to the rich. Low-income families will feel it first: higher costs, fewer services, and no safety net when it’s needed most. There’s nothing bold about punishing the poor. #dumptrump

Trump just cut off trade talks with Canada over a digital tax—Americans will pay the price. Expect higher food and tech costs, disrupted supply chains, and economic strain in states like Michigan and New York. This isn’t strength. It’s self-inflicted harm. #canadatariffs #dumptrump #tradewar

The Supreme Court just cleared a path for Trump to strip citizenship from kids born to undocumented parents. This isn’t just cruel—it’s unconstitutional. It puts millions at risk of losing rights, protections, and their place in the only country they’ve ever known. #scotus #dumptrump #immigration

He went from staying in a homeless shelter to signing a record deal with Columbia—all before turning 23. 🎤🔥 Micah Dailey-White shares the raw, real story behind the music, the internet fame, and the hustle it took to rise from nothing. 📺 Watch the full interview now:

Iran just struck a U.S. airbase in Qatar. Trump responded by hinting at regime change in Tehran. Iran’s foreign minister is now in Moscow, seeking Russian support. This isn’t just retaliation—it’s alignment. And it’s dragging the world toward something far bigger. We need de-escalation. Now. #iran

We may not have a formal declaration, but let’s be honest: the U.S. is at war. We've bombed Iran’s nuclear sites. Troops are on high alert. Retaliation is coming. This isn’t stability—it’s escalation. And unless diplomacy steps in fast, we’re heading toward a war with global consequences. #war #iran

Iran says “surprises” are coming. Most likely? Hezbollah joins the war. Armed by Iran, they have tens of thousands of rockets aimed at Israel. If they launch, this becomes a multi-front war overnight. That’s not just escalation—it’s a fuse burning toward catastrophe. #USbombsiran #hezbollah #iran

Trump just bombed Iran’s nuclear sites and pushed us to the brink of global war. He’s split his own party, bypassed Congress, and destroyed the path to diplomacy. Only 16% support this. This isn’t leadership—it’s chaos. The man who promised no stupid wars just started one. #iranbombing #dumptrump

Iran and Israel continue trading missile strikes. Civilians are dying. Diplomacy has collapsed. And now we’re hearing Iran may be targeting cities to wear down Israel’s defenses for something worse. This isn’t strength. It’s a slow-motion catastrophe. We need a ceasefire—not escalation. #israeliran

We’re not at World War III—yet—but this Israel–Iran conflict is dangerously close to spiraling. Civilians are dying. Trump’s calling for Iran’s “unconditional surrender.” Russia’s warning the U.S. to back off. This isn’t just another flare-up. The world is holding its breath. #israeliranconflict

Over 200 civilians dead. Missiles still flying. Diplomacy canceled. Trump warns Tehran to evacuate—while refusing to back a ceasefire with world leaders at the G7. This isn’t leadership. It’s brinkmanship with lives on the line. The world needs peace. Now. #israeliranconflict #worldwar3 #tehran

As Israel and Iran trade missiles, world leaders gather at the G7 to “discuss de-escalation.” Meanwhile, civilians are dying in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Tehran. The longer this escalates, the more innocent people pay the price. We don’t need more warnings—we need a ceasefire. #israeliranconflict #war
