ENCORE EPISODE RECORDED 1/12/21

Start with a laugh, stay for the honesty. We take a candid tour through the world of boobs—how asymmetry is normal, why fitness often shrinks volume, and what actually happens when you choose implants. From puberty hopes and pregnancy curveballs to post-baby realities, we unpack the expectations that shape how women feel in their skin. Then we get practical about surgery: choosing a qualified surgeon over a bargain, sizing with restraint, understanding incision options, and why warranties and the 10-year mark matter more than most people think.

Our guest, David (@dm.shoots2), is a photographer who’s seen more varieties of breasts than most doctors’ brochures. He breaks down what looks natural on camera, how placement and material affect the final look on lean bodies, and the truth about “cheap” work that leads to shelf lines and rippling. We compare saline deflation to silicone’s slower leaks, debate over-the-muscle vs under-the-muscle, and talk capsular contracture, recovery discipline, and the surprising ways clothing and confidence shift after surgery.

There’s a creator economy angle too. Social platforms push tame versions of boudoir while real demand lives on OnlyFans and Patreon. We talk licensing, exclusivity, and how photographers and models build ethical, profitable systems that respect consent, comfort, and creative control. Through it all, one theme holds: every breast is unique. Even with the same surgeon and implant, bodies tell their own stories. The winning strategy is choosing the look that fits your life—natural slope or full projection, subtle side boob or bold upper pole—and owning it without apology.

Ever wonder what your year in music says about your actual life? We dive into our stats and instantly hit a fork in the road: one of us is a pop punk lifer (Alkaline Trio, Sum 41, Paramore), the other a card-carrying rave kid with a soft spot for hip hop and a surprisingly cozy country streak thanks to car rides with the kids. Along the way, sourdough crunch ASMR makes a cameo, and so does the most honest truth of all: your platform and your day-to-day routines decide what really plays.

We compare Apple Music and Spotify quirks, talk about how minutes listened can lie when you sample thousands of tracks, and laugh at how a single 36-song album can dominate a season because it’s safe for the school pickup line. Genres become a mood map: dance and electronic for the gym, hip hop to keep energy up, alternative rock for everything in between, plus unexpected oldies and folk-rock detours with Lord Huron and The Cranberries. We also get into the Euphoria soundtrack effect, why full albums still matter, and how teaching workout classes quietly skews top songs with instrumental bangers that hit just right.

If you’ve ever built a “me in music” playlist or sworn off shuffle because it ruins a lift, you’ll feel seen. If you love the chaos of going from Eminem to sixties pop in one car ride, you’ll feel seen too. By the end, you’ll have practical ideas for organizing your listening around your real routines—workouts, commutes, kid-safe drives—and a fresh way to read your Wrapped or Replay as a story rather than a scorecard. Press play, then tell us your top artist and which lineup you vibe with more. Subscribe, share with a friend who has the opposite taste, and leave a review with your top three genres for the year.

The brighter the colors, the bigger the smile—remember when fast food had mascots, Taco Bell had a talking chihuahua, and McDonald’s seats looked like fries? We dive into why the 90s felt alive and playful, and why today’s beige minimalism leaves so many of us craving the loud, weird energy of that decade. From TGIF and Blockbuster pizza nights to candy stores and sleepovers, we map the rituals that made Friday feel safe and special.

We also pull apart the media shift: local news that felt grounded vs the modern clickbait machine where corrections never catch up. That change reshaped how safe we feel, how we parent, and how we trust strangers. Along the way we revisit the toys and shows that stuck—Rugrats, Doug, Hey Arnold, Rocco’s Modern Life, Ren and Stimpy—and why sly, adult-wink humor aged better than most reboots. Our tour hits music too: 90s country with heart, alternative and ska you can dance to, and the eternal Backstreet vs NSYNC debate that still lights up group chats.

Technology was charmingly inconvenient—payphones, answering machines, floppy disks—and that friction gave daily life texture. Airports let you hug at the gate, diners had smoking sections, and you could disappear until the streetlights came on without anyone spiraling. We’re not stuck in the past; we’re borrowing what worked: color that invites play, rituals that bring people home, and media boundaries that protect our sanity. Hit play, share your favorite 90s memory, and tell us what you’d bring back first. If this episode sparks a grin, follow, rate, and pass it to a friend who still knows every TGIF theme song.

Silence isn’t silent for everyone. We open with the weird whoosh of tinnitus and how a quiet bedroom can feel louder than a city street, then work our way through sleep debt, anxiety, and the hopeful promise of habits that actually stick. One of us lives by a structured wind-down and eight-hour average; the other battles insomnia, racing thoughts, and the urge to clear every notification before bed. That contrast fuels a practical, funny, and unfiltered look at what real rest takes when life is full and emotions run high.

We compare Whoop and Fitbit beyond the marketing—sleep debt vs sleep efficiency, readiness vs recovery, and how HRV, resting heart rate, and restorative stages map to the way you feel when you wake up. There’s also the all-too-relatable moment when a wearable congratulates a “workout” that was actually a panic spike in a crowded store. The takeaway: use data for patterns, not punishment. If your brain is buzzing, it’s not a character flaw; it’s a cue to try different inputs—brown noise, earplugs, earlier wind-downs, and boundaries around late-night scrolls.

We get honest about emotional fatigue during the holidays, grief anniversaries that hit harder in the dark, and the rare times we actually call each other instead of stuffing it down. Safety gets real too: drowsy driving, rumble strips, and why pulling into a rest stop for a 20-minute nap can be the most responsible move of the night. We wrap with caffeine guardrails, small habit swaps that lower cortisol, and a reminder that consistent routines beat heroic fixes. Rest isn’t a reward you earn; it’s a resource you protect.

If this resonates, tap follow, share this with a friend who needs permission to sleep, and leave a quick review telling us your go-to trick for quieting a loud mind.

What would you trade for peace of mind—a full year of your memory, a single person who did damage, or nothing at all? We crack open a messy, honest thought experiment and chase it through the real costs: identity, relationships, and the lessons that only hard seasons can teach. The premise sounds merciful—wipe the worst twelve months, skip the grief, dodge the chaos—but the ripple effects are ruthless. If those months built your boundaries and instincts, deleting them might also delete the wisdom you use to stay safe now.

We walk through the edge cases: picking a “boring” year, erasing only one person Eternal Sunshine‑style, and why pattern recognition matters more than clean timelines. The conversation gets personal—sober choices that changed the arc, manipulation that took time to unlearn, and the way self‑awareness can make you cringe before it makes you better. We also let humor breathe the heavy parts: ADHD love languages (object permanence affection is real), time blindness as a dragon you have to slay to show up on time, and the absurdity of the “boy aquarium” at a hockey game. The stories get unhinged and human, but the throughline stays clear: you don’t become stronger by forgetting; you become safer by integrating.

If you’ve ever wished for a delete button on your past—after a breakup, a loss, or a season that still echoes—this conversation offers a grounded alternative. Keep the memories, mine them for meaning, and level up without repeating the same boss fight. Hit play for honest takes, dark humor, and practical reflections on trauma, resilience, ADHD, sobriety, and friendship that shows up with snacks, rides, and the truth.

Ever been “two minutes away,” then suddenly fourteen, then two again? We start with the comedy of autopilot driving and glitchy GPS, then follow the tangents to where life actually happens: cheer season’s hidden workload, why counting beats matters more than people think, and how left versus right becomes chaos when stage directions flip. It’s the gap between what we assume kids know and what they’re rarely taught—timing, rhythm, body awareness—and why those basics can be the difference between panic and poise when the music cuts.

We share the ADHD reality of starting six tasks and finishing one, the reward breaks that become detours, and the small systems that help close loops anyway. From there, the conversation sharpens: hypnosis, past-life regression, and the placebo effect get a skeptical but curious look. We acknowledge the mind’s power without surrendering to magical thinking, emphasizing safety and consent when “healing” crosses into performance. Then comes pregnancy honesty—high-risk protocols, bile-soaked mornings, and the myth that enjoying pregnancy is universal. Body autonomy is the anchor, including a frank discussion of continuous birth control when it’s the right medical call.

The final act is sex without shame. We confront the orgasm gap, normalize the need for direct clitoral stimulation, and call toys what they are: smart tools, not insults. Partners who collaborate make intimacy better for everyone. We also set a hard boundary on substance use and driving—nostalgia isn’t a pass for unsafe choices. Through it all, the throughline is agency: over your focus, your routes, your routines, your body, and your pleasure. If that mix of candor and humor feels like home, press play, subscribe, and tell us the hot take you’re still arguing with. Your stories make this conversation better—drop us a note or a review and keep it going.

What happens when the scary card isn’t scary at all? We pull “death,” talk through what real endings look like, and watch it open a door to rebirth, revival, and a softer self that finally gets to breathe. Along the way we get honest about the weird panic that arrives when life improves—how fight‑or‑flight lingers, how self‑sabotage masquerades as realism, and how steady communication in a new relationship can feel suspicious when you’re used to chaos.

The spread reaches beyond symbolism. Nurture becomes practical: watering your own grass and letting safety grow slowly. Surrender becomes a permission slip to love again after loss without erasing what came before. The beloved shows up as balance—two people filling each other’s cups, protected by clear words and small daily acts. We share the unglamorous work behind that balance, from resisting old triggers to asking for help before a spiral takes over.

We also wade into astrology as a language for patterns, not a script for fate: double Aries fire, Cancer sensitivity, Capricorn structure, and why “knowing your chart” can feel like finally getting the why. Mental health is on the table too—bipolar type distinctions, psychosis, medication that keeps the floor steady—and the courage it takes to honor routines that keep a brain safe. There’s laughter in the cracks (hello, Mega Aries), but the throughline is clear: closure, care, and choosing the path that protects your peace.

If you’re rebuilding after manipulation or bracing when good things happen, this conversation offers tools, language, and a little light. Press play, subscribe for more honest readings and real talk, and share this with a friend who needs proof that joy can be safe again. Then tell us: what cycle are you ready to end?

Luck is knocking, but only after you put down the picture in your head. We kick off with a collective reading that hits on three themes—release, pride, and timing—then step right into a raw, unguarded session where life’s chaos collides with real tools for steadier days. Think tech meltdowns, car issues, and a live credit card breach caught mid-chat, all reframed through a lens that blends tarot clarity, astrology timing, and grounded self-awareness.

With Janessa back at the table, the conversation goes deeper than card meanings. We unpack why collective messages resonate, how to feel when a pull is meant for you, and what retrograde actually shifts in daily life. Lacey’s reading becomes a mirror for anyone stuck between survival mode and true care. Acceptance shows up as progress. Patience looks like slowing choices. The “guardian” card lands with a nudge to stop protecting everyone else first and start building a practice that protects your own bandwidth. The sun-and-moon dynamic between co-hosts adds context to how friends can amplify better habits—or feed the mania—depending on the moment.

The most surprising pivot comes from a debate on manifestation and realism. We challenge the idea that you must choose one. Manifestation here is attention hygiene: select which facts set your state. Yes, name the hard thing; then highlight how you handled it. That shift rewires momentum without sugarcoating anything. As the cards close on offering, love, and completion, the arc becomes clear: end the cycle that drains you, offer yourself real tending instead of treats, and give luck space to land. It’s honest, warm, and unedited—proof that vulnerability can be a tool, not a trap.

If this episode sparked something for you, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs the reminder, and leave a quick review telling us what card or insight hit hardest. Your notes help us shape what we explore next.
