We're not sure what’s weirder: birds or people. Working together, finding common ground, and understanding another’s perspective, whether you’re building a nest or building a Subway sandwich, sometimes it seems that collaboration is the least practical and most frustrating thing we attempt to do.

Luckily, there’s a framework for that! Pulled out of a dusty sales text book and given fresh life, our hosts unpack the personality test that helps bring teams together, and that Josh used to woo Maddie with once upon a second date…

...yeah, people are definitely weirder.

Our second threesome of AT&NT starts how all the best ones do: with a drinking game.

Aaron Foyer is a reformed investment banker, energy and climate expert, and one of our favourite people. In this episode, he leads us in a discussion of energy and climate, the polarization of the media, and unveils his plan to take over the world through rational discourse, intelligent policy, and honest media (*swoon*).

It’s getting hot in here, let’s take off all our coals.

We are now on Clubhouse! Follow our club, All Talk & No Trousers.

What do a global pandemic and a guy wearing too much cologne have in common? They're both the source of some challenging conversations.

On the one-year anniversary of the COVID-19 lockdowns, Maddie & Josh review the most bizarre and contentious parts of the year. From puppies to protests to pantslessness, they wrestle with the things that divide us and the things that unite us.

You may want something stronger than fridge wine for this one.

If you read a book and you don't tell anyone about it, did you really read the book? Are audiobooks just reading with your ears?

Josh and Maddie recap the books they read in 2020, and make a few recommendations, but mostly they discuss everything from Maddie hosting murderers in her home to whether it's acceptable to highlight in books. You know, just like a normal book club.

Sapiens (Yuval Noah Harris)

Behavioural Economics: The Basics (Philip Corr & Anke Plagnol)

Vagina (Naomi Wolf)

Lying (Sam Harris)

This (Michael Gungor)

If you tell me a secret, and I keep it, will I have to lie?

We all have secrets, but without having conversations that free us, we might be missing out on real connection. In this week's bonus episode, Josh and Maddie get tangled in the webs of secret keeping.

You didn't really think we'd keep this conversation to ourselves, did you?

Deceit, trickery, and — teddy bears? Let's be honest, there are an infinite number of ways to lie, and just as many ways to get caught, so Josh & Maddie swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth...whatever that means.

At least their pants aren’t on fire, since they aren’t wearing them anyways.

We have our first guest!!

We're opening ourselves up to all levels of the universe here, with our favourite tarot goddess: the eloquent, the energetic, the powerful Paige Pinder. We sit down to talk all things spirituality, what it means to go inward and the journeys we take to our highest selves and greatest desires in this crazy world.

We also find out what's in the cards (ahem) for Maddie & Josh.

No matter what you believe in, this is a journey worth hearing.

Pop that prosecco, friends, but don't hit your face. The Maddie Party kinda sounds like a Great Gatsby, sequin-covered roaring twenties kind of party, and we aren't mad about it. In this episode, you'll meet your podcast and party host, the razzle, the dazzle, and proof you don't have to choose between smart and sexy; ladies and gentlemen, Maddie.

*Psst...like all real-life parties, it's not all sparkle. We get into some real chat about Maddie's eating disorder. If that's not a happy place for you to be, take care of you first, and we'll catch ya in the next episode :)*

Finally, it’s all about Josh.

It seems only fair that if you’re going to listen to them talk, you should know a bit about who's behind the mics. Join Maddie as she cracks Josh open, giving a little glimpse of what’s going on in that strange, wild mind. You’ve been warned: welcome to The Josh Show.

Dating is hard. Whether it's awkward first dates or crafting the perfect profile, it all makes you wonder if this is how it has to be. Josh & Maddie dig into why Disney ruined us, how to filter quicker by being more authentic, and that at least we can all agree texting sucks. Hope springs eternal, because true love is totally out there...right?
