The Deep Drive
The Deep Drive
Micah and Thomas
There's only one way to fully understand The Deep Drive, and that's by listening to it. Humans are odd creatures, and Micah and Thomas are fascinated by how we function, communicate, and feel in everyday situations. The two hosts are quite different from each other, making their conversations lively, entertaining, and full of banter! Join the boys as they explore topics that relate to literally everyone.

Progress
The boys clash heads as they discuss human progress, and question the methods of defining and assessing it. There's no space to take a mental break as the two fire on all cylinders from the start. How do we know the difference between "progress" and "change”? Are things truly better now than they were a thousand years ago? How far has science actually gotten us? Speaking of science,  Micah finds out by experimentation that Thomas is ticklish.

Lying
We've all lied, and some of us do it a bit habitually. Micah and Thomas discuss what it means to lie, the value of intent, and when it might be acceptable to tell a bit of a fib...if that ever is acceptable. Thomas also admits during a round of "Two Truths and a Lie" that he has recently urinated on a carpet...the reasons for which he explains in excruciating detail. Amidst the kerfuffle, the two mates talk seriously about times they've lied...

Misunderstanding
What seems to be a harmless conversation on communication quickly turns into an emotional chopping block as the boys discuss each other's worst qualities. Thomas slaps Micah several times, as the boys are in hilarious disarray. Plus, the two discuss their mutual love of music and its creation, and the fear of risking it all in the name of passion. Micah also gives dating advice to an unknown teen in the "Mailbag".

Advice
Micah and Thomas give some advice on giving advice. They carefully walk through four important checkpoints, in order to determine the "do's" and "don'ts" of those situations we've all been in. Picture this: your friend comes to you in a panic. It's her dad. He broke her hairbrush again. She asks what she should do. Should she call child protective services (even though she's 26), or is this a sign that she should switch to a more uncombed and 2-days-a-week shampoo and coconut oil conditioner ritual that will keep her natural follicle minerals in tact? She can't decide. She needs YOUR advice! The choice is yours. Don't mess up.

Individualism/Communalism
The Deep Drive takes on a weighty and controversial topic as Micah and Thomas discuss two popular ideals in the light of international conflict. Individualism, in its extreme form, tends to ignore the downtrodden and oppressed, while communalism in its most intense form can oppress the very freedoms that make us human, and forms an idealistic sense of community that doesn't actually exist. Amidst these difficult discussions, Thomas apparently believes that many penguins died in the Gulf of Mexico, Micah sings a sad song, the two have a quick disagreement about fences and, surprisingly, war is good proof we should all be on a low-carb diet.

TIMEEEEEeeeeeeee
Time is scary. And it puts so much pressure on us. And we all conform to society's standards of what we should do with the time we have. But why? Also, the boys sing that song that goes: "(Ooga, shaka, ooga ooga, ooga shaka, ooga ooga) I can't stop this feeling, deep inside of me, girl you just don't realize, what you do to me".

Addiction
Chances are you're addicted to something. The boys try to tackle a controversial topic that spans the broad terrain of addictions; everything from sexual and substance reliance, to "workaholism" and the surprise king of addictions...Micah admits to having had past, not-so-terrible but not-so-beneficial addictions, while Thomas tries to explain how devastating an addiction to film-making can be.
