Silas and Samantha reunite in person for an adventure into the wild world of pickleball… and immediately encounter unexpected coaching, questionable sports etiquette, and a live demonstration of mansplaining in the wild.

Along the way: Silas nearly burns his leg off with a rogue 9-volt battery, Samantha reflects on awkward public moments involving kids, and the conversation spirals into stand-up comedy philosophy, storytelling, romance novels, and whether “smut” is just a misogynistic label for books women enjoy.

Also: Silas announces his upcoming rap song Call Me a Nerd. Because of course he does.
