⁠⁠https://medium.com/@nickbeefman⁠⁠This episode is a slow spiral into the soft underbelly of habit fatigue, emotional constipation, and journaling as a gateway drug to unsolicited introspection. Mike confesses to feeling like a spreadsheet with legs, while Nick doubles down on dredging up teenage trauma with a $4 Kmart notebook and a ballpoint pen. There’s poetry, poop anxiety, hockey tantrums, and a bit too much time spent imagining life in a G-string. We also ask the big questions—like “Who’s actually got it right?” and “Is there any dignity left in white jeans?”

Along the way, we grapple with judgement (both healthy and crack-addict-level), the dopamine hit of gossip, and what it means to get meaningfully uncomfortable. There's a poetry slam. There’s a philosophical argument about bananas. There’s even a discussion about the optimal crotch-seam construction of men’s underwear. If you’re chasing self-betterment but keep getting distracted by your own inner monologue or Savage Garden nostalgia, this one’s for you.
