242: Be Curious! Be Informed! | With Miss Ice Aug 14, 2020

Show notes

It’s time to end the week right! Time to be curious and be informed! Today, we’ll bring the positivity and fun! We’re catching up with Miss Ice this week! Captain Influence and his city was wiped from the face of the Earth by a freak storm. Or was it? Is he ok? Do we really know? Is truth relative? What's the answer to the universe, life, and all things?

42.

Now you know everything. And can pick up anything! Assuming you have chopsticks. Oh! We also talk about what we're watching (and we'll review some shows for you) and Miss Ice gives some good watchlist suggestions! Oh, and our conversation is quite enriching. Sort of like vitamin-D enriched milk.

Good luck.

241: I’m Pretty Awesome… | With Caffeinatrix Aug 07, 2020

Show notes

It’s time to get positive, have fun, and nerd out! It’s Friday! Caffeinatrix returns! Captain Influence has new Origins of Sayings. I review My Spy. We talk about Far Cry 5 and fishing while getting shot at. We get into a fascinating discussion about altruism/doing the right thing for others, even in the time of Covid. We talk about having confidence about how awesome you are. I mean, I finally figured out that I'm pretty awesome.

No wait. That wasn't me saying that... that was Natalie. Or was it Nality? Nat? Natalya? Trend Setter?

I'm so confused.
