We realize there's a lot of stress and uncertainty out there right now so hopefully this episode helps bring a little levity to a pretty heavy situation for us all. The Service Industry is kinda f*cked right now. But even though there's plenty to be stressed out about, there's plenty to appreciate. A few restaurants are pivoting in very creative and interesting ways and we want to shout them out. We also get real about what this may mean for the hairdressing industry and our own work life.

Taylor and Adrian switch their recording setup and it causes nothing but problems. This week we’re talking about all the mediocre restaurants we’ve been hitting. It’s a lot. This week Adrian gets mansplaining DM’s about how and why she should send a steak back, we push around a plate of overcooked food in an empty restaurant, and we discuss the places we’ve taken for granted. We watched The Morning Show and think AppleTV+ might be the Aldi of streaming services. So, naturally, we discuss grocery stores. And, Taylor goes to the doctor. We discuss how being in the service industry effects how we approach things when we’re a nervous customer, client, or patient. Last, we’ve got listener emails!

This week we’re trying to reacclimate after a week apart. We discuss why we don’t do well when we get separated and what happens when Taylor loses his personal restaurant and menu consultant. Taylor hit up one of their old favorites while Adrian was in NYC and has some interesting people watching stories. First, a second date with an awkward food order. Then, an unwanted, unliked ex-coworker shows up for dinner at his former place of employment leaving Taylor to flee from overhearing his boring small talk. Next, Taylor and Adrian give their stance on making small talk with clients. Sometimes is it better just not to talk at all? Can one lead-into small talk with “Do you watch The Witcher?” Speaking of The Witcher, you should watch The Witcher…then you should rewatch The Witcher. We have a SPOILER FREE talk about the timelines and why rewatching it is worth it. We’re back into our routine and back to our normal breakfast spot. We discuss the place that’s nearest to our hearts and why a post breakfast nap is pure magic. We round out this weeks episode with a little football talk and why Adrian loves Bill Belichick, hates fake expansion teams, and is very excited for Joe Burrow.

Also, we explore whether or not Pilates had problematic origins…circa 1940’s Germany. Next we talk about some of our client’s though the years who’ve been in the personal training game.
