In episode 31, I talk to Becca about her years being fat. Since the early years of her childhood, she had always been on the heavy side. Today we go on a waddle to remember, as we explore how her life was growing up fat. She talks about the events leading to her fatness, the way she felt as a fat teen, her ongoing battle with bulimia and her weight-loss journey. Becca slimmed down once in 2014, gained it all back and has again slimmed down. This is her journey.

In Episode 30, I'm joined again with my old high school friend Edward and this time we talk about his 15-year-old crush on Sara. If anyone knows Edward, it is very likely they've heard him talk about Sara and what this person has meant to him. That said, being in unrequited love with someone for so long is on the extreme side and I want to get to the bottom of this. How did this seemingly average woman get this guy hooked for so long? Was she cute and bubbly? Sure. But is she seriously worth all the thoughts and dreams? Edward takes me on a trip back in time to tell me the whole story.

On episode 29, I talk to Edward about his life as a homeless person. We first met in 2001 and were good friends in high school and the years that followed. The last time I saw or even talked to him was probably in 2015. About two months ago, he messaged me on Instagram and I found out that he has spent the last two years of his life homeless and living out of his car. I knew then that I had to get to the bottom of his story and have him on the podcast. If you're curious about homeless life in Southern California, the mystery gets completely cracked here.

On episode 27, I swap Palestine stories with Tommaso. We talk sneaking into where we don't belong, brushes with possible death and how it didn't live up completely to the horror show people made it out to be. Tommaso is really into all of it and has a much stronger opinion then I do. I was mainly in on it for adventure. Feel free to send any questions or comments to [email protected].

Them, That and This is back! In episode 26, I get into a sticky situation and interview Matt about his addiction to pornography. He talks about first jerks, six-hour Pornhub sessions, the kind of porn he loved, and the toll it took on his relationships and life. As of today, porn's grasp on Matt has loosened significantly, but the looming threat is always there. Feel free to send any questions or comments to [email protected].
