July 20, 2026 The Computer Wore White New Balance Tennis Shoes
Jake’s shipping up to Boston this week, so we’re partially recording on tour! Because he’s recording from a hotel room, the sound quality is a little different, but the content quality is off the charts! We discuss which stats we’d like to see about our lives, using ChatGPT to express kind sentiments, Boston sights, negativity and groupthink on Reddit, and more!

July 13, 2026 Pre-Internet Problems & Other Bad Decisions
This week, we open by discussing inflation and what we could buy for $5 100 years ago. Then, we’re a little punchy from a late evening recording, and things slide off the rails fairly quickly as we look at what life was like pre-internet, followed by the dangers of our modern world. We wrap things up by figuring out which items we would never buy used. Plus, we discuss the handiness of walkie talkies, old toilets, how to pronounce “syrup”, and more!

July 06, 2026 Safety!
On this episode, we start with a bang, literally! We then help out some redditors figure out a situation after being the victim of a crime, and proper etiquette when someone breaks wind in front of them. Throughout it all, we give our World Cup predictions, our limited grasp of USSR history and the ‘Rocky’ franchise, the rules of the safety/doorknob game, cleaning between the seats of our cars, and more!
