Dear fellow white people, this episode is for you. It's time to WAKE UP. This is a plea to those who have been basking in their ignorance to step up and join the Black Lives Matter movement, and here's why...

Trigger warning: mental health, suicide and police brutality are discussed in this episode. 

We’ve all heard about the classic “it’s not you, it’s me” breakup speech, but what if “it’s not me, it’s you”? This week my friend Ana and I discuss the problem with being in a relationship when engaged in mental illness and the importance of learning to love yourself before you can love somebody else (can I get an AMEN? - Ru Paul). This is PTPB’s most personal episode yet, so naturally, a LOT of f-bombs were dropped in the making. 

TRIGGER WARNING: Mental illness is the focus of this episode, specifically depression, bulimia & mental/emotional/physical abuse. 

If you need to talk to someone regarding your mental health, Canada has several resources including @wellnesstogethercanada and the Hope for Wellness Help Line dedicated to all Indigenous peoples across Canada @ 1-855-242-3310 (toll free).

Remember, you are not alone & your mental health matters.

Is astrology a God-like power? Was this dumpster fire of a year always written in the stars? This week Paloma, Abi and I talk about astrology's influence in politics, human behaviour and history, the part ego plays and much, much more. Oh, and Paloma actually manages to finish Abi’s chart reading, despite the many tangents we go on.

This week, Joe and I continue our discussion about our experience testing positive for COVID-19. In part 2 we cover how our friends & family reacted and what we can do as a community to get through the pandemic. Thank you to all the front line workers busting their ass to fight this damn thing!

TRIGGER WARNING: eating disorder warning, if you should like to skip this part of the conversation, it begins at 19 minutes and ends at the 23 minute mark.

My dear friend/talented electronic music producer/fellow COVID-19 survivor Joseph Julien joins me to dish all things COVID. We talk about out the similarities and differences between our experience with the virus and dare I say it... find a cure? 

In the final episode of my Breaking Jehovah's Witness series, Mark tells us about his teenage years as a J-Dub and shares his heartfelt story about how he broke away from this religion. Kate continues to get mind-mangled and tries not to cry. 

This week Mark answers some lingering questions from Breaking JW Part 1 and things get real as Kate and Mark start exploring his childhood. No Harry Potter references were butchered in the making of this episode.

Join me and special guest Mark Julien as we deep dive into the world of Jehovah's Witness! Mark will share his experiences having been born and raised in the religion while I butcher Harry Potter plot lines and use Michael Scott to understand it all. We hope you enjoy the very first episode of Pass the Peanut Butter!
