Picture this: you're stuck in an elevator with your best friend and a dog, and the only thing keeping you sane is a playlist you downloaded on a whim. That's just one of the many adventures we recount in this episode, starting with a fun-filled celebration of Max's birthday and the launch of Strawbango Sour Strips. We also gush over our latest collaboration with Ghost and share some behind-the-scenes excitement about the upcoming Apple event.

From there, join us on a rollercoaster ride through Max's trip to New York, where Taylor will be walking in New York Fashion Week—a lifelong dream come true. We also share our honest takes on Ghost Hydration Sour Strips flavors and tackle the pressures of always being the "goofy guy" in social settings. Plus, hear our mixed feelings about a recent dinner at a new Mediterranean spot in Houston and the hilariously stressful elevator malfunction that left us laughing and learning important survival tips.

We then shift gears to some heavy-hitting topics like global powers, nuclear threats, and the delicate dance of US-China relations. We also take a nostalgic detour, reminiscing about the good old days of Blockbuster and VHS tapes. Dog owners and home renovation enthusiasts will find plenty of practical insights, including tips on joint supplements for pets and the joys and challenges of managing a multi-dog household. We wrap up with reflections on our Instagram personas versus real-life dynamics, clothing longevity, and the ups and downs of running a gym. This episode has a bit of everything—humor, heartfelt moments, and plenty of insights.
