August 10, 2022 62. The Practice: The Professional & Intent
Hang on to your headphones because this book ain't over yet! We are back talking The Practice. These two chapters were pretty concise, so we get some beefy stories in this episode, such as Catherine's origin story and when Brittany decided to become a full-time musician. Even though neither of us were feeling these two chapters, we did have some great discussions about free and low paying gigs and talent versus skill. Also, what's Catherine's problem with Kroger brand tortillas?

July 27, 2022 60. The Practice: Trust Your Self w/ Cassie Holmes
New book time! We are starting The Practice by Seth Godin today with Cassie Holmes (@kassarilla), violist, photographer, medical professional, and Brittany's BFF. The first section in this book is "Trust Your Self," and did we learn to trust ourselves? Maybe? Maybe not? We point out some serious issues with this book while also discussing aspects that we enjoyed, but maybe could have been done better. As usual, it's not all serious; Brittany questioned her reading comprehension, Catherine gets triggered by positive thinking, and Cassie fakes axe throwing. Enjoy!

July 20, 2022 59. American vs. Canadian Music Showdown w/ Wendy Tabor
TW: suicide

You asked, we delivered! We got together with Wendy Tabor (@designerwithfire) to discuss what/who we think are the most influential American and Canadian rock musicians in honor of the 4th of July and Canada Day! Music isn't the only thing we attack, Wendy hates on American beer, Brittany hates on the metric system, and Catherine declares her stance as Switzerland.

June 29, 2022 56. Opposite of Butterfly Hunting: Ch. 7 & 8
TW: eating disorders, anorexia, self harm, suicide, abusive relationships, anxiety

Straight from Georgia's heat dome (and from Colorado) we are back with Chapters 7 and 8 of The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting! Evanna digs deep, telling about the end of her stay at Peaceful Pastures and recovery post-institution. We marvel at how Evanna turns anorexia into a relatable condition and how we all picture life moving differently. Brittany tells the story of her first boyfriend and Catherine brings up Mendelssohn's Midsummer Night's Dream. We also announce a new tier on our Patreon page! Stay tuned for more details!

June 22, 2022 55. Opposite of Butterfly Hunting: Ch. 5 & 6
TW: anorexia, eating disorders, body dysmorphia, domestic abuse, sexual assault, self harm, suicide, suicidal thoughts

It's just us today continuing on Evanna Lynch's journey in The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting. We reach possibly Evanna's rock bottom as she is committed to a rehabilitation center specializing in eating disorders. We hit on some serious and non-serious topics in this episode. We think back on how popular being skinny was in the 2000s and visit our own disordered eating tendencies. Brittany hates on thee metric system, and Catherine tries to pick up Tom Felton. We discuss J.K. Rowling and the controversy surrounding her personal views and how to balance the physical and mental aspects of mental health.

June 15, 2022 54. Opposite of Butterfly Hunting: Ch. 3 & 4 w/ Matt Richards
TW: eating disorders, anorexia, bulimia, suicide, depression, abusive relationships

Matt Richards, co-host of MMM Conversations, joins us today as we continue through The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting! Evanna continues down the path of anorexia and ends up being hospitalized. Even though none of us have been through an eating disorder, we are all amazed by the relatability of Evanna through her experience and her as a person. We open with a cross over with The Hobbit, the last book we have read! We discuss using dark humor as a coping mechanism, therapy, and Neopets. Brittany gets Ireland and England mixed up, Catherine learns what a feeding tube is, and Matt reflects on a better, younger time playing Pokemon. Listen all the way through for some Harry Potter hot takes!

June 08, 2022 53. Opposite of Butterfly Hunting: Foreword - Ch. 2 w/ Reiner Slay
TW: rape, eating disorders, anorexia

Reiner Slay, vocalist of Concrete Supergun, joins us to open The Opposite of Butterfly Hunting, which might be the most real book this podcast has read so far. Evanna Lynch, actress for Luna Lovegood, opens up about her struggles with anorexia. These chapters focus on Evanna's mindset as a 10/11 year old and how that led to her future struggles. We also get in touch with our pre-puberty selves, remembering how hard being a teen and pre-teen really is. Anyone remember the ridiculous sizing at Abercrombie in the 2000s and 2010s? Also Brittany describes an easier time eating maple leaves, Reiner gives some insight from a male perspective, and Catherine questions if she ever hit puberty.
