DJ and Harry open up about how weird and uncertain everything feels these days. They share personal stories and tips on dealing with all the chaos, from how to avoid burning out when life gets overwhelming to how to figure out what's true and what's not in the media. The conversation also hits on the importance of staying connected with people – because having a solid support system and a sense of community makes a huge difference when things get tough.

Despite some heavy topics, the vibe stays pretty light and fun. DJ and Harry crack jokes and even get into a few playful debates over the silliest questions – like whether a hot dog is a sandwich or if pineapple belongs on pizza. They even compare notes on how many times a day they check their phones (spoiler: it's a lot). By the end of it, you'll feel like you hung out with friends who not only gave you some solid advice on handling life's curveballs but also made you laugh along the way.
