We’re baaaack! Season seven kicks off the only way we know how: with absolute chaos. And by chaos, we mean a hysterical round of Kiss, Marry, [something].

What starts as harmless hypotheticals spirals into hot takes on Furries, a very sexy talking car, and a total meltdown over the rules (because do they even exist?).

Buckle up for an episode full of the unhinged logic you’ve come to expect from us because honestly, the rules never mattered anyway.

Season 6 of the podcast is wrapping up—and in true Gen X fashion, we’re doing it our way: a little chaotic, a little nostalgic, and completely unfiltered. For this special season finale, all four of us (yes, miracles happen!) are finally able to record at the same tme, answering the questions you—our gloriously curious, sarcastic, and slightly unhinged Facebook group—sent in. From deep thoughts to weird rabbit holes, nothing’s off limits. It’s part AMA, part group therapy, and 100% real. You’re welcome. (or… maybe sorry?)

In this episode, we are diving into the world of GenX digital nomads—that’s right: people our age who are living and working from foreign countries, cool cities, or just wherever the Wi-Fi’s decent and the coffee’s strong.

So how do they decide where to go? How do they find a place to stay? And most importantly, how do they do all this without losing their minds (or all their chargers)?

We’ve got TWO guests with us today—yes, two—who just so happen to be married and currently living the digital nomad dream. (Bonus: Courtney and I have known them since college, so we’re legally allowed to ask inappropriate questions).

Tune in as we grill them about all things nomad-life, take notes for our own escape plan, and try not to sound too jealous.
