Pessimism At Its Finest episodes

  • Episode 68 - The White Tent Obstruction, Featuring Nickelback. A Free Film by TIFF!

    This episode starts with a critique of the efforts made by the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) to execute a Nickelback concert. It was giving FREE. Also, why are all of the film premieres during the day? How can us working peeps attend? Corrections must be made and this isn’t about the strike. We have a few days left and I think that things may turn around for the festival. The film selections are great though!

    I also discuss:

    • “After Everything” will be released tomorrow!

    • Chris Evans’ got secretly married! 

    • More on Kylie Jenner and Timothee Chalamet at the US Open

    • Steven Tyler injured his vocal cords and I cannot see Aerosmith until 2024

    • Annie and Mau from Couples Therapy (if you want to watch a trainwreck). Here is a link to some of the chaos that ensues between this couple - https://youtu.be/kwseWFY-wIc?si=j4ZGQEu4b9e8lCpt 

    • Socializing less to invest more time in my passion projects

      • Hope that you all enjoy my musings! See you in the next episode!

          • Episode 64 - Love Is Blind - Season 4, Episode 1-5 (A Netflix Series Recap)

            Zach gave us all the ick from singing with the worst vocal we have ever heard in our life. I cannot get over it.

            Love is Blind is back for Season 4 on Netflix.

            I wasn’t going to recap this but it was too good not too.

            • The Mean Girls (Micah and Irina),
            • Zach giving Irina the ick,
            • Paul second guessing Micah,
            • Micah second guessing breaking up with Kwame,
            • Kwame not deserving Chelsea,
            • Brett and Tiffany are immaculate vibes,
            • I forgot Jackie and Marshall were even there,
            • the pool party,
            • the Zach and Irina break up,
            • and Zach going back to Seattle to meet with Bliss. 

              • I can’t wait for new episodes on March 31st!

            • Episode 63 - Alexandria vs. The Cemetery Manager/Mausoleum Specialist

              I know I sound so dead in this episode but it's because I am legitimately exhausted. I am also partially distracted by the WWE Channel playing in the background.

              In this episode I discuss:

              • Bullying my mom into ordering the WWE channel for me
              • Why I cannot understand the love triangle that is Hailey Bieber, Justin Bieber, and Selena Gomez
              • The Kardashians are in their FLOP ERA and they will not be invited to the MET Gala
              • Drama with the Cemetery Manager and Mausoleum Specialist, a 4 year story line (and a lesson in the world being a small place)
              • My thoughts on Zach’s season of the Bachelor
              • Why I don’t want a season 2 of “In Love All Over Again” on Netflix

              • Bonus Episode 6 - Sex/Life (Season 2): A Netflix Show Review

                I WILL NEVER LIKE COOPER! If you are #TeamCooper, this is not the episode for you!

                In this recap of Season 2 of the Netflix show, “Sex/Life” or “SexLife”. I will discuss episodes 1-6, my thoughts on all of the characters, and the happily ever after finale (which leads me to believe that there will be no season 3). As you know, this show is mainly sex scenes and it did not fail to deliver on those! We discuss the couples: Cooper and Bille, Cooper and Francesca, Billie and Majid, Brad and Billie, Brad and Gigi, and Sasha and Kam.

                Also, lets not forget the iconic and hilarious moment in Episode 6, 17 minutes and 41 seconds in (thank me later).

                This season had a better storyline than the first but it was not as well acted. I do love the ending and how everything came full circle. It was a good look into the nuances of marriage, first loves, happy endings, and second chances.

                Overall, I would rate season 2 a 3.5/5 (similar to my rating for season 1)

                This episode is dedicated to Willie, the man who keeps on signing me up for spam emails.

                Happy New Year everyone! It is 2023 and I bring to you the first episode of the year! No, I do not have a vision board or plan for the year, but it will be great (Somehow)! 

                In this episode, I discuss the following: Kevin McCarthy and the US Speaker of the House Vote, my opinions on reading Reverse Harem books, my friend confusing Ireland with Irish Man, Prince Harry becoming an overnight meme sensation, Andrew Tate’s horrible song, and an overall podcast update.

                Antonio is back with his hot takes!
                This episode is an extension of Episode 59 - The King and Spadina Debate. In this episode, we discuss why I give off Hinge Vibes, Urban Planning Men being a Red Flag, Blundstones, communication on dating apps, and City Place. My intro ends and Antonio starts at 4:50.
                We also touch on the following Toronto intersections: King and Spadina (Alexandria’s favourite), Front and Bay (Urban Planning Man’s favourite) and Bloor and Bedford (Antonio’s favourite).
