(ok maybe a little clickbait-y) First off, Mandy finally gets some stuff off her chest. Then we have a discussion all about the side of American History that they don't cover in school. After the Constitution was written, what happened? How did the USA actually become a country? And most importantly-- if you were an 18th-century American, would you be a federalist or a democratic republican?

Hi, this is NOT a football episode for dummies. You probably need at least a little bit of knowledge to understand this episode. But if you know what a 1st down is and have shouted "D-FENCE" at a football game but never understood any of the strategy, this is the episode for you! We get down and dirty on why specific plays are called, and then we get up and clean on the overview of how a football team is managed. GO BIRDS!

If you're Mandy, then the answer is yes.  We are back on the pod- this time tackling a topic that's wayyyy too big to discuss in just 40 minutes.  But we attempt to break down music tastes: why is it frowned upon to like pop music?  Who chooses what "genres" artists fall into and why are they such bad categorizations? And most importantly, are you a pick-me when it comes to your listening choices?  Find out all this and more!  (And please send any good music as we always love suggestions)

Food.  You eat it every day.  It's such a large part of our families, our cultures, our personalities.  Are you more of a go-out-to-eat or stay home and cook type?  Which cuisines are your favorite?  Do you like the same foods that you grew up with or have you branched out from your mother's cooking?  All these questions and more are discussed in our latest episode of Master of None.

Would you wear the ugliest shoes in the world (Birkenstock clogs) just to impress people?  This week we discuss trends and why we feel so drawn to them.  We ask ourselves the hard questions: "Do I want this because I think it's a good product or am I buying this because everyone else has one?"  Tune in to find out how popular we were in high school and to learn about some of the most dangerous popular challenges on social media today.

Well, friends, WE ARE BACK WITH A NEW SEASON.  After our exciting summer, we are here to report on the rest of our adventures in Latvia and beyond.  This week we discuss the biggest differences we saw between Europe and America, and how while traveling can help us broaden our horizons, it's not the only way to educate oneself on world events and history.  (Please excuse Mandy's muffled sound in this episode, there was a microphone technical difficulty.)

Throughout history, civilizations around the world have all had one thing in common: war.  This week we discuss what war entails, if and when it's "justified," and why men seem to be so fascinated by it.  We also talk about our experience living in Eastern Europe during the war in Ukraine.  Feel free to write to us for suggestions, feedback, etc! https://masterofnonepodcast.weebly.com/

To start out: we do NOT support doing drugs.  This week we do a deep dive into the history of America's most popular illegal drug after weed.  You'll learn what ludicrous ingredients are included in the recipe for modern-day crack cocaine, and one scientist who decided to test it as EYE DROPS (in the name of science, of course).  Also, watch out for us this Spring as we will be making an appearance on BBC with some new-found Finnish friends! :)
