Don't go mistaking paradise for a pair of long legs, and don't go thinking there was ever a better Gen X love triangle than Some Kind of Wonderful.
Friend of the pod and resident cool guy Kenny Stach joins us as we talk all about the risks and rewards of being in love with a friend, stalker Keith, naked girls in locker rooms, THAT KISS, kissable Watts, awkward dates, guyliner, sad paintings, and how a lack of shallowness doesn't make you deep.

The Giving Tree (1964)
Tuesday Mar 07, 2023
Tuesday Mar 07, 2023
If you’ve ever pondered the sometimes fuzzy line between love vs. sacrifice … or helping vs. enabling … or beloved children’s classic vs. entitled child’s manifesto, then this episode is for you.
We’re turning the pages of Shel Silverstein’s classic, The Giving Tree and exploring the themes we thought we loved (???), while unraveling the enigma of the renaissance man himself.
But wait, there's so much more! We dare to ask whether Silverstein was an intellectual hottie and where the hell the forest's village was at, but not before discussing the high cost of lumber, why kids are attracted to ugly images, and of course, the healthy boundaries required in every relationship.

Aerosmith’s Alicia Silverstone Music Video Trilogy (1993-1994)
Tuesday Feb 21, 2023
Tuesday Feb 21, 2023
Content warning: This episode includes discussions surrounding suicide. If you are someone you know is experiencing suicidal thoughts or is in crisis and are in the US, please contact the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988 to be automatically connected to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline for free and confidential support.
As a nod to the “teenage dirtbag” trend, we’re kicking it back to the good hair and bad attitude of our quintessential ‘90s queen, Alicia Silverstone and her epic Aerosmith video trilogy. From “Cryin’” to “Amazing” to “Crazy”, we dive deep into the music videos that inspired us to kick ass, love hard, and live free — all while looking sexy as hell.
In addition to dishing on matching tattoos, sexy gas pumping, scandalous nepotism, and stealing white bread, we tackle old man gawkers, the perks of being pretty, and of course, those magic moments of teenage freedom.

Come for Mariah's waves and kisses, stay for the dogs in sweaters.
