Hosts Julie and Jenny explore the concept of fun, particularly in midlife. They share personal anecdotes about their recent experiences, including Julie's mishap during a restorative yoga class and Jenny's nostalgic discovery of an old iPod while organizing tech junk drawers.

The conversation transitions into a deeper discussion about how fun can vary from person to person, emphasizing that what constitutes fun can change with age and life circumstances. They highlight the importance of scheduling fun and the challenges that come with balancing responsibilities and leisure time, especially for parents in midlife. They also touch on the societal pressures of comparing one's fun experiences to others, the concept of toxic positivity and a reminder that life is actually quite ordinary, and encouraged listeners to redefine what fun means for them individually.
