Opposite of Neutral

Season 2, Episode 2: Potential Spam


Listen Later

In this episode, Chris and Evan sift through the quirky and curious aspects of spam, both as an email nuisance and a canned delicacy.


In a blend of facts, fiction, and fun, they explore the unexpected connections between email spam and Monty Python and discuss the global phenomenon of Spam, the food product. Evan reads through some of the spam received at the podcast's email address. They do a deep dive into the concept of digital hoarding - why do we cling to old emails, documents, and even USB cables from the early 2000s? Or is that just Evan?


They then pull at the thread of decluttering and the challenge of letting go, whether it's physical items or digital files.


What big milestone is Chris about to hit on Instagram? Why does Evan still have robotics shirts from fifteen years ago? And what did Chris make with spam that has Evan pining for onigiri? Listen to find out. 


And don't forget to tune in for our next episode exploring the marvels of small world experiences.
