Tangentially Speaking with Christopher Ryan: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3hpbKKgQu2Gs4azk3uIVFK?si=b51a492c649e4553

Hello, good morning, good afternoon, friends and family. The same thing, I think so. As the title suggests, this episode has a lot of stuff in it. A few topics stick around, but mostly we are jumpin'. Consider us frogs in this episode because we are hoppin' from one topic lilypad to the next. It's fun. It's casual. We make jokes. Hopefully, we do not offend. We are very uneducated on most of the topics we speak about, but it is important to start conversations. At the least, we will spark that in your own life and maybe give you a slight smile from time to time. Perhaps even a giggle. And if there is anything that any of our besties would love for us to talk about, please DM us on most social media platforms @bestiesintent. Twitter or Instagram would be good options. Maybe Twitter??? 

I hope everyone is having a lovely day and week. If not, take some time for yourself, and maybe this episode has something to help lighten your spirits.

Please share with all your other besties. If you want T-shirts, we need to grow!! Thanks for listening, and stay tuned for all our media on all the platforms.

The Power of Ten (Watch it and Expand your Mind)
https://thekidshouldseethis.com/post/eames-powers-of-ten

Ryan and Erik catch up on the beautiful Friday afternoon. This episode is short, sweet and a bit raunchy. We dilly during the first ten minutes, but move on to more difficult topics; our ideal funeral, capitalism’s symbiosis with the (global) media, and boobs on Instagram. We question the general obsession with true crime podcasts and ask why these horrible stories are so damn intriguing, and possibly even comforting… Thankfully, towards the end we get into some mind-numbing nonsense to send you on your merry way for the rest of the day.

Hello, how are you all? I hope you're ready for a beauty of an episode, for sure one of our best yet. We have some entertaining conversation that will carry you through the day as if the clouds are upon us. We talk about Shaksuka, how we cook, national women's day, gender, dog breed ethics, music and so much more. Please do come along for a conversation that's packed with pizzazz and fun loving fun!!

Big shout outs to Caleb Pressly and Kodak black for being ultimate sources of good comedy.
We talk about the predictive mold of art. Ryan loves the ‘friends take a journey’: collective heroes tale. We ask the burning questions, are sitcoms realistic? Is bing-ing racist, and accents? And to what extent do we value friendship and social interaction. Erik talks his job - intensive long term care, in children. Ryan gives his feedback and where the ethics lay.

Bing!:

Hello friends! Hear the birds, touch the tree's branches and take today to love living in the outdoors. On this weeks episode we began with the values and virtues of (not) eating meat. Then, we invest a good chunk of time discussing (our) yearly goals! And it takes us to a dive into the differences between our two approaches to maintaining a focused lifestyle.  We get into that wintery feeling when we speak on the joys of skiing. And most IMPORTANTLY cover the daring topic of insect body dysmorphia. Join, sing and play along, this week on Besties INTENT. Please, no cursing and keep your body parts outside of the moving vehicle.

Hello, errrrbody. Today we did an impromptu interview of our main squeeze Erik, one of your lovely podcast cohosts. This interview happened naturally, and I think we both got a lot out of the chat. So hopefully, you do as well and learn a bit more about how each of your host's minds works. Grab yourself a love sack and enjoy this jam sesh of minds. Love you all!! Thanks for staying true to your boyz! We're working hard for you, and we want to grow to the moon. Spread the word and spread the love. WE ARE BESTIES INTENT!!

Hello party people!!!!! We talk about a lot of things here today. Especially some fabulous recommendations which will be listed below. Enjoy yourselves and really submerge into the depths of the besties intent landscape. Wonderful things can be cultivated in this world of splendor. But presence and awareness, the ability to give full attention is key. Otherwise you may get nothing from us. Most importantly be open and have fun with it.

The Overstory

richardpowers.net/the-overstory/

If you want to seem much smarter than the two people? Do you desire the feeling of heightened intelligence? If you want a boost in cognitive morale, well this one is for you.

Ryan describes his full blown freak out as he acclimates into apartment lifestyle near Amsterdam, NL.

Erik’s been jobless for the last five months. But, he just got employed as a nurse of pediatrics in Denver! Watch out for some good health care Colorado! Erik and Ryan are both embarking on new endeavors. They brew about the differences between starting work and starting school and how Ryan’s master degree will pose different obstacles than bachelors or even Eriks nurse degree.

Enjoy and sing along. 

We are moving around! Moving to Europe, and even grown men miss home. 

This was recorded back in the day when Kanye was out there teasing us with the Donda release: are you a true fan if you get annoyed? Does anyone remember book socks from elementary school? How about the auditorium book fairs with the Harry Potter posters and Abe Lincoln figurines?

AND, and, n'...Erik’s dedication takes him to the brink of exhaustion. Lost in the rockies Erik flirts with suffering a major freak out. Listen in!
