In this heartfelt and honest bonus episode, Ken Ledesma opens up about the journey behind Star of Aetheria, reflecting on creativity, friendships, and the often misguided pursuit of wealth. He shares personal insights about how chasing riches has impacted those around him and draws inspiration from Will Smith’s take on happiness and the value of life’s simple pleasures.
Ken also speaks on his deep love for The Nerdvana Experience and expresses humility as he begins to see success on the horizon. He touches on the challenges of dealing with injury, weight gain and loss, and how those moments taught him the importance of staying productive and grounded.
Things take a real turn when Ken recounts a call from someone who took issue with something said on TNE—but he stands firm in his commitment to freedom of speech and honest expression. The episode closes with deep gratitude for every listener who continues to support The Nerdvana Experience.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
