Zoom is our world now. All hail Zoom. There is no anything; there is only Zoom.

Having said that, it doesn’t mean we have to be monsters during meetings. On this episode, we’ve got our best good suggestions on how to Zoom like a responsible grown-up!

Okay, look. We’ll be honest. We’ve picked up some bad habits since the coronavirus locked us all in our houses. Ryan’s even eating pretzels now. PRETZELS! It’s time to take our fitness back from the darkness, and the Smiths are back in this time of need to give you some pretty decent tips on how to stay in shape when you can’t go to the gym!

This is the first episode of a very special coronavirus season of Adult Harder, and we’re pretty excited to be back, tbh. #Brag.

Oh, you still rent? Cool story, BABY. Real adults buy real estate, and it’s high time you learned the ins and outs of being a major property mogul. It’s like being a property brother, but usually you’re shorter, and not a twin. WHO’S READY?

In the epic conclusion of our inaugural two-part episode on being gainfully employed so you can buy whiskey and chips, we share some hot takes on how to not be a terrible co-worker…then we’re once again joined by our friend Val, who talks about office pranks, workplace romance, how to flame out of your job in a bright, beautiful blaze of terrible, terrible glory, and more.

Have you ever tried to raise money for a good cause? Boy, it’s hard. It’s like people want to keep their own money in their own wallets because they don’t know how much joy it would bring you to raise three more dollars. Well, we’re here to help! This week, we talk about some of the pitfalls of fundraising, and we offer some excellently good advice on how to fundraise better.

Mother’s Day. Amiright? It’s like the Saw movie franchise of holidays. Because every year or so, you think, “Oh. Wow. Is there another one of those? I forgot about that. But it’s definitely there, isn’t it?” And you know what? IT IS. Because Mother’s Day is just relentless. AND IT WANTS TO PLAY A GAME.
This week, we go brain-deep into the problem of Mother’s Day: why it’s strange, why the best good sons don’t get their own holiday, and what presents you should definitely NOT get your mom for her annual special day. Join us, won’t you? It’s a very special episode of Adult Harder.

It’s hard to not be a total jackass at a concert. If you’re at the same concert as our new favorite listener, Jamie from Kansas, that is. Following Jamie’s very strict orders, we explain the best way to not suck at a concert, and to be honest? We pretty much nail it.

When someone else’s wedding bells start ringing, you have just one job. JUST ONE JOB.

Don’t. F***. Things. Up.

Unfortunately, ruining someone else’s wedding is easier than you might think. Just ask Ryan, who tried preeeeeeetty dang hard to ruin Clayton’s first wedding. NICE TRY, SMITH.

This week is all about being a better wedding guest, and it goes way beyond not throwing up on the dance floor (though that’s an A-#1 tip).
