Dylanโs Self Description
If I'm not writing, I'm likely doing something outdoors or at a concert. My last meal would be a ribeye and Caesar salad.

Why Dylan?
Dylan came highly recommended by my close friend Sether (the first Rambull podcast episode). Sether and Dylan played lacrosse together at Bowdoin. When I asked Sether if he could put me in touch he said โI think Dylan is hunting for caribou up in Alaska the next couple of days, so hearing back from him may take a little whileโฆโ
True Detective (but only Season 1)
๐ฝ Movie Recommendation
True Detective on HBO. Episode 4 has the best scene of anything Iโve ever seen on screen.
Big Agnes Skyline UL Chair
๐Consumer Product Recommendation
Big Agnes Skyline UL Chair. I have a nasty habit of over-researching gear before buying anything. Thatโs what led me to this chair, and it lives up to the hype. Iโd recommend it for any backpackers/picnickers/sitters in general.
Nugs
๐ฒ Digital Product Recommendation.
Nugs. At the risk of typecasting myself โ Nugs. Itโs a live music streaming service for listening to recordings of concerts. I use the app almost exclusively for listening to Billy Strings shows.
Getting Outdoors
๐ชHabit or Routine Recommendation
Putting myself in environments in which I am not in control of the situation โ typically that means the outdoors. No matter how much you prepare, Mother Nature doesnโt care, and sheโs undefeated. Getting out there puts things into perspective for me on what really matters.

โDonโt look a gift horse in the mouth.โ
๐ฅHonorable Mention
I was told growing up โdonโt look a gift horse in the mouth.โ Itโs a weird expression but a good one, and I try to internalize and express it throughout my day.
From Collins Dictionary: used to tell someone that they should not find fault with a free gift or chance benefit
If you find a bargain, take it. Don't look a gift horse in the mouth.
Tie Dye Shirts from Jocelyn Kowalski
๐ Best Gift
My brother got me two amazing tie dye shirts made by Jocelyn Kowalski (check her out on Instagram at @jocelynkowalski). I've been trying to spend less time on Instagram lately, but it's really cool to see how the platform gives talented and independent artists like Jocelyn the ability to share their work.
Who else is a Billy Strings fan?
