In this episode recorded a week after the capitol building... riots? coup? idiotselfiepalooza? we, joined by Bo Bedingfield and Aubrey Kupstas, tackle the nature of truth, its elusiveness, and the emergence of truthiness and a culture that propagates relativity of evidentially true things.

In this episode Aubrey definitively deems Supermarket Sweep a sport, I turn rambling about competitive eating into an endurance sport, Gogi says making porn is too performative to be a sport, Ken turns organizing a list about what sports are actually sports a sport, Benjamin calls Hope a sport.

In this episode Ken has the greatest day of his life because taquitos, I have a fine dining experience at Terrible's, Gogi puts a high premium on froyo machines, Hope spies mid-pandemic crowds at the Mongolian BBQ.

In this episode we are joined again by Aubrey Kupstas and for the first time by Chirag Tasker, both of whom give us great perspective on the diversity of human personality.  Aubrey tells us what it's like to be an INFJ (along with MLK Jr. and Nelson Mandela), which is rarest type,  Chirag calls for a Myers-Briggs brand manager, the test tells Hope she has similarities to Don Knotts, Benjamin questions whether figure skaters even have personalities and then blindsides us all with a profundity bomb, I drink gin, Matt uses the test to shore up personal weaknesses, Gogi feels that she thinks that she thinks that she feels, Ken is, of course, the "walking contradiction" type.  Our sound bear lets us down but we persevere nonetheless.

In this special unedited episode we celebrate International Free Listening Day - April 11 - by talking with the founder of free listening and Urban Confessional, our very own Benjamin Mathes, and do a sample listening with Matt and Gogi.  We explore this curious phenomenon, why it gained such widespread popularity, and its effect on listener and listenee.

In this episode recorded days before Meghan Markle's Oprah interview we are joined by Xenia Boyes, a British-born geologist who shares her insider perspective on the royal family (spoiler alert: she sources most of what she knows from watching The Crown just like everyone else.)  Matt gives Jane Goodall the Freudian slip, Gogi throws open the doors to Buckingham Palace, I go to London and eat eel, Benjamin flexes his mastery of geology with a dad-joke meme.  And it turns out we all go too soft on the royals as we now know they're all just a pile of racists prats.  At least we got to call them inbreeds.

In this episode prolific dreamer Aubrey joins us to see if there's any real meaning to unlock from dreams or if they're just our nighttime brain waste.  Matt wears a light sweater and crushes our souls (unrelated (maybe?)), Hope gets a visit from a dark lord, Ken says we can't read in our dreams and we all lose our shit, I say the words "mental regurgitant".

In this episode we are rejoined by bird behavior expert Lori Luttrell as she once again lends her insight to the avian brain.  Matt reveals the birds aren't real movement, Ben's spicy college nickname is exposed, Hope is disgusted by dolphins, Gogi decides to avoid making a decision until one is made for her, Ken's dog Ghee makes a solid decision, and my dream of an international Franciscan Fried Chicken franchise hits a major snag.

In this episode Gogi introduces the crew to the concept of positive family tickles, Ken gets on his trusty research horse and connects tickling to fascists and Charles Darwin, Aubrey recalls a major family tickle faux pas, I almost decapitate a baby, Hope uses a head scratcher in a place other than designed, Matt sneezes(!) and wants a consensual all-bro tickle party.

In this episode, Vincent Tang joins in to give us an insight into the finer points of turning a conscious person unconscious.  Ken starts us off with some microphone jiu-jitsu, Hope tells two tales of getting a ball to the face, Matt waxes poetic on a tennis rally, Gogi gives an update on Nepal's illegal substance policy for all the jet-setting hedonists, I get enthusiastically accosted by a bomb-sniffing dog at JFK Airport.
