The Amazon Prime Minister - Imaginary Friends Sep 07, 2021

Show notes

On our constant quest to understand why tf our minds do what they do, we took a pit stop in Imagination Land- specifically Imaginary Friend...Town? You get it. This isn't an actual quest and we aren't actually stopping. I've over thought this entirely too much already. ANYWAY - please enjoy one theory of where they come from, their assumed purpose and several terrifying and curious examples of imaginary friends. We tried finding funny ones but apparently parents are more freaked out than amused by them.

Tangents & True Crime - Canadian Residential Schools Aug 31, 2021

This weeks Tangents & True Crime is about an ongoing injustice that has caused years of generational trauma on Indigenous families in North America.

Here for a good time, not a real time - 911 Calls Aug 24, 2021

Show notes

It was after an hour in a hyper fixation on funny 911 calls that I realized that some of them (most of them) weren't even real. Too much time had already been spent to abandon the notation so this is essentially us reading a script from a Netflix show. Please enjoy as we attempt to re-enact funny 911 calls- with a sprinkle of a history of the how the number came about. You're probably more interested in that now, huh. Great. Sorry.

Every Tuesday, just me flicking my unicorn - 100th EPISODE Aug 17, 2021

Show notes

100 EPISODES!! If we’re honest- we never ever thought we’d get here and we certainly did think we’d have so many of you hanging out with us. We are more grateful to you than we can even begin to say and hope you enjoy this virtual sleepover where we continuously squeal, sniff, cry and laugh while sharing your messages. We did our best to integrate the audio but some sections may still be a little hard to hear in the car or in a house of screaming children….heads up from a friend. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for all of the love & support. CHEERS TO ENDLESS MORE!

The landing gear is down and so am I - Sharing Your Scandals Aug 10, 2021

Show notes

It's that time again! We asked you to send in your hometown/workplace scandals and once again, you did not disappoint! If you can sit through 30 minutes of tangents and Love is Blind talk, you'll be handsomely rewarded with stories of mystery & mehr-dehr! That's murder spelled phonetically to read like you have a french accent and I don't think it translates well but you're not here for top tier descriptions are you?

Ope! Extra Snowflake - Fallacies Aug 03, 2021

Show notes

Society planted these weird seeds in our minds without us even realizing it called Fallacies. These ideas make us feel trapped in impossible either/or scenarios or completely fictitious dilemmas. We find ourselves afraid or ashamed to give up on things or move on from people or activities that no longer bring us joy because we've spent so long in that season, like time is a thing that can be wasted. We thought fallacies were going to be a fun thing to discuss and an interesting challenge used to retrain our brains - turns out we just got rage-y about politicians and the social climate of the world for an hour straight. Sorry, we know it's only Tuesday. It's gonna be a long week.

I can be right or I can be rich - Traditions Jul 20, 2021

Show notes

We're back on our bull sh*t, trying to figure out where things like Birthdays and the Tooth Fairy came from and why the Easter Bunny lays eggs? I can almost guarantee none of the origins are what you would have guessed. We also take a moment to give you a completely inaccurate lesson on Greek Mythology, just for funsies. Please leave your favorite correct greek mythology tidbit below to educate us because we clearly need it.

Let's all manifest the freedom of Britney Spears - Free Britney Movement Jul 13, 2021

Show notes

This is a story about a girl name....BRITNEY B*TCH. The time has come for us to talk about hashtag Free Britney. It is important to note that we are mediocre at best when it comes to researching, remembering timelines and staying on track so if you came here to educate yourself on what is happening with Britney & her conservatorship, we're barely prepared to have opinions so we're definitely not qualified to translate legalities so please take anything we say with the biggest bucket of salt that you can find. We're doing our best to highlight where we think things went wrong and just how terrible the early 2000's were for pop stars & the pursuit to understand the importance of mental health. Alright, now all eyes on us in the center of your screen just like a circus.
