Questions or Comments: Slip It In Here!

The creatures are having a moment, and somehow the conversation gets both stranger and more educational with every animal. Matty, Megan and JJ dive into some of the wildest stories from the animal kingdom, including researchers detecting cocaine and other human-made substances in sharks, Greenland sharks that may live for centuries and the eight senses sharks use to navigate the ocean.

The conversation then moves to Virginia’s annual Chincoteague Pony Swim, Jimothy the unusually shaped viral raccoon, the black squirrel that interrupted a Detroit Tigers game at Comerica Park and the yellow-bellied marmots behind OnlyMarms and Fat Marmot Week.

Megan also introduces Matty and JJ to Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey before the trio tackles this week’s Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs, involving a surprisingly pleasant Michigan Secretary of State visit, Dunkin’ beverage buckets, Ariana Grande’s album-release strategy, inconveniently reliable bowel movements, a wordless CVS encounter and Matty’s problem with The Hawk.

In this episode:

• Cocaine and other human-made substances detected in sharks
• Greenland sharks, sharks’ extra senses and the Sharktivity tracking app
• Why surfers can be mistaken for prey
• The Chincoteague Pony Swim, Saltwater Cowboys and a deeply confused palomino-versus-Appaloosa debate
• Jimothy the raccoon, animal influencer culture and a rogue squirrel at Comerica Park
• OnlyMarms, yellow-bellied marmots and Fat Marmot Week
• Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Honey
• A Slipper’s voicemail about testing “noodles” in public—and the challenge for listeners to try it themselves
• Dunkin’ beverage buckets and Ariana Grande’s album-release strategy
• This week’s Slip It Ins and Pull It Outs

First dates can go from awkward to alarming remarkably fast. Matty, Megan and JJ unpack some of the wildest BuzzFeed dating-horror stories and identify the red flags that should send someone straight toward the exit. Matty and Megan also share their own first-date fiascos, involving a kids-menu PB&J eaten with a knife and fork, butterflies released to Céline Dion and fruit-flavored Tic Tacs served like bar snacks.

Then Matty introduces his latest Best Bet—the EOAT adjustable dumbbell set—before the conversation turns to online resale shopping, questionable return strategies, the Running of the Bulls, Grindr’s expensive AI membership and the espresso martini-and-fries pairing that may have become a summer tradition.

In this episode:

• First-date horror stories and the red flags that turn awkward into alarming
• A buffet, a forgotten wallet and a liquor-store escape plan
• Dessert pressure, unexpected belly rubbing and an invitation to meet Mom
• Matty’s Plenty of Fish date featuring PB&J, butterflies and crème brûlée
• Megan’s speakeasy date with Tic Tacs, cigarettes and one very slow beer
• Matty’s Best Bet: adjustable dumbbells for home workouts and travel
• Poshmark, Depop, ThredUp, The RealReal and the online resale rabbit hole
• Running of the Bulls reactions and the risks tourists willingly take
• Espresso martinis with fries and Grindr’s premium AI-powered Edge membership

We sit down with Dr. Stephen Paul Edwards to unpack the seductive pull of toxic attraction, the red flags we rationalize, and how a relationship can mirror the parts of ourselves we avoid. We get real about shame, intimacy, boundaries, and why vulnerability is not weakness but a kind of power that changes how you date and heal.

• Dr. Stephen Paul Edwards’ background in spiritual counseling and relationship work
• The Venus Flytrap story and how a “dangerous” romance starts
• Why we chase high-stakes chemistry and ignore obvious red flags

We jump from Pride Month chaos to a CNN moment that feels tailor-made for us when Andy Cohen surprises Anderson Cooper and the conversation somehow circles back to our infamous “favorite nuts” question. Along the way we obsess over a July 3 Times Square ball drop, Madonna’s Grindr-powered pop-up, a surprisingly deep would-you-rather, and the everyday drama of products, payments, and backyard mysteries. 

• Matty spotting Andy Cohen on CNN and the “favorite nut” callback
• Revisiting AC2 in Chicago and how the nut question keeps spreading
• America 250 coverage, eight Times Square ball drops, and broadcast-only logistics
