In a previous episode, we discussed our experience growing up as quiet and shy kids. Being shy and quiet comes with its fair share of struggles and in today’s episode, we figured we’d talk about one specific aspect, which is the feeling of being left out.

We share our personal experience with this terrible feeling, and talk about all the situations in which we’ve felt this way. Along the way, some people have helped us in such situations but others have just made things worse and we tell you all about these specific behaviours. But as always, we self-reflect a bit and figure out a way to cope with this feeling a bit better going forward. More details are included in the breakdown at the end of this description. If this topic speaks to you or you simply want to hear us converse about this struggle, then go ahead and listen to the episode!

Here’s a detailed breakdown of what we talk about in this episode:

Ah the mid-twenties! A wonderful period of your life where your friends are all over the relationship spectrum: some are single, some are married and others just wanna be left alone. No matter what their status is, you want your friends to be in healthy relationships.. And when they’re single, the temptation to set them up with people and see them in a relationship is just so strong! We personally love to follow up on friends’ love lives, get regular updates and try to find potential partners for them. But we wonder... Is this wrong? Should we stop getting involved in their romantic quests? Join us on this episode as we discuss these questions and dig deep about our desire to see our friends in relationships.

In this episode, we figure out what we get out of all this, how it affects us and whether it is a selfish act or not. We also try to find the reason why we can’t stop doing this and reflect on whether this should be stopped going forward. (A more detailed episode breakdown is included at the end of this description.) If you find this topic interesting, go ahead and listen to the episode.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of what we talk about in this episode:

You know that thing that your mind does without you even realizing When it just leads you through a bunch of thoughts and all of a sudden, you are somewhere completely unexplainable in your stream of consciousness and are daydreaming about all kinds of things? One moment, you are thinking about the math problem in the book that’s sitting in front of you and the next, you are daydreaming about becoming an amazing singer and performing in front of thousands of people! Who knows how your thoughts led you there but one thing we do know, is that talking about these kinds of situations is super fun! So come along with us as we drift away into the topic of daydreams!

We ask each other all kinds of questions to figure out each other’s daydreaming preferences and behaviors. We then try to understand how each type of daydream affects our lives in unexpected ways, both positive and negative. From realizing that certain daydreams can mess with your self-perception, confidence and expectations, to discovering that some people just LOVE to daydream about food to satisfy “visual cravings”, we make quite a few shocking realizations in the process.  (A more detailed episode breakdown is included at the end of this description.) If you are curious to hear all about the things we discover about daydreams, take a moment and go listen to the episode.

Here’s a detailed breakdown of what we talk about in this episode:

Shit Talking and Gossiping is something everyone does. Yet, no one likes to admit they do it. Because of all the negative aspects that are shown on the big screen, it feels like we, as a society, have accepted the fact that gossiping and shit talking is a bad thing to do and hence, we deny that part of us…

Who knows? Maybe they are bad, but maybe not. In this episode, we think out loud and try to figure out exactly that.

We share our personal experiences with the endless vicious cycles of gossiping. Then, we talk about the importance of choosing your shit talking and gossiping buddies wisely, as well as the importance of the intention behind the fact sharing. To finish it off, we try to rationalize gossiping and look at the positives of it, such as trust building and bond creations in friendship and we even introduce our own theory behind our need and desire to gossip: herd protection mentality! (A more detailed episode breakdown is included at the end of this description) If you are curious to hear about our take on this fun and exciting topic, press play and enjoy the episode!

Here’s a detailed breakdown of what we talk about in this episode:

These days, with everyone carefully inspecting the environment around them and their social circles, it seems like there is some form of toxic negativity all around us. We all want to avoid negativity in our lives, and with reason! Instead, we encourage positive thinking and good vibes. It’s all about spreading good thoughts and assuring others that they are capable of doing whatever they may be struggling with... But can this be “overdone”?

In this episode, we want to pause and figure out something quite thought-provoking: is there such a thing as toxic positivity? We share our own experiences where we witnessed toxic positivity in others. But that’s not it… We also do some introspection and reflect on how we ourselves may have been sources of toxic positivity in the past. And because a journey of self-growth and personal development is never ending, we couldn’t finish this episode without figuring out a solution to stop being those typical toxic positive people and figuring out how to become better at comforting people! Join us in this episode and listen to us think out loud and get deep about this topic.

Here’s a more detailed overview of what we talk about in this episode:

Back in our childhood, plastic surgery and any kind of bodily modifications (fillers, nose jobs, veneers, implants, etc.) weren't so common...or at least they were quite unheard of. Celebrities were the main ones we witnessed the most doing all these procedures. But nowadays, it’s not just the Kardashians of this world that are doing these... It seems like everyone is modifying their body left and right. So we decided to talk about this in our episode!

We discuss our opinions on plastic surgery and all other kinds of body modifications, as well as what kind of modifications we would personally do on ourselves. Along the way, we even end up talking about if doing such modifications is a sign of a lack of self-confidence. Now, we could keep going on and on in this episode description but there's just too many things to list out here. So why don't you tune in and go down the rabbit hole with us?

Here’s a more detailed overview of what we talk about in this episode:

Crushes can be pretty fun to have. You get to think about them all day, you can make up scenarios that involve them and you can even do fun romance quizzes hoping they will predict the possibility of a wedding with your crush. We've all done that, whether it be a crush on a normal person in our entourage or even a celebrity crush! But what about fictional characters? How would that be different from regular crushes? Unfortunately, it's not something a lot of us talk about so we decided to do exactly that!

In this episode, we are diving deep into the concept of developing crushes on fictional characters from books, movies, tv shows, cartoons, etc. We dish out on some of our recent crushes and many not so recent ones and try to explain how they affect(ed) our lives and how we deal(t) with them.

Hopefully, our discussion will trigger thoughts and memories about your own secret fictional character crushes so you can share them with us through comments or email. If you liked what you heard and can relate to the struggle of developing crushes too easily, then come back next Sunday for another fun episode.
