This week we’re diving into the world of conspiracy theories and the heartbreak of end-of-life choices. Expect unhelpful answers, a few tears, inappropriate giggles, and an AMA that will probably reveal too much about both of us.

👉 A listener writes from Grey Lynn about a friend whose obsession with fringe conspiracies has gone from Bill Gates’ “microchips” to Paul McCartney being replaced in 1966. Once the life of the party, he now derails every conversation with the conspiracy du jour and calls anyone who disagrees a “sheep.” Do you cut ties, call it out, or just keep baa-ing along?

👉 Jamie shares an impossibly tough situation: his father-in-law, a big character in a big family, is dying of cancer and wants assisted dying to avoid pain and burden. His wife is devastated, the siblings are divided, and their kids are 13, 8, and 5. How do you support your partner through it, and do you prepare the kids — or protect them?

Finally, in our AMA Clayton reveals his ultimate dating “ick,” and Suran shares her irrational fears

⚠️ Please note: this episode contains sensitive conversations about assisted dying. Take care when listening.
