In this episode, we unpack life in Los Angeles during wildfire season—smoky skies, evacuation zones, and the surreal sight of flames glowing in the distance. We also reminisce about summer anthem nostalgia, debate the ethics of nine-year-olds with tattoos, and share theories about fitness transformations that seem a little too good to be true. Somehow, we find ourselves talking about Civil War balls, cat tongues, and conspiracy theories involving secret tunnels. It’s a mix of reflection, humor, and the kind of randomness that makes this podcast one of a kind.
