  • Episode 34: Why Being Delusional Might Just Save Your Life

    Let's get delusional!
    In this episode, Rio and Neil talk about delusions - the kind of empowering affirmations you tell yourself just to get by in this cruel world.
    What they ended up talking about was a short but packed discussion on using your delusions to your advantage, deconstructing the delusional mindset, how to transform your delusions into confidence, being delusional in the workplace, not 'showing up' for yourself, and being your own cheerleader.
    They were inspired by this video from Madeline Argy, so check it out if you want: https://youtube.com/watch?v=1HfTqJRiutE&feature=youtu.be
    Note: This episode contains triggers related to suicide. Please seek help if you do have suicidal intentions.

  • Episode 33: Accepting the Cringe

    After a very long hiatus, the Sugarhouse Podcast is back and ready to serve another round of unhinged conversations!


    In this episode, Rio and Neil explore the concept of "accepting the cringe." This has been a topic that they've been tackling in their personal lives, and it's about time they talk about it.

    They share what they find cringey about themselves and delve into why they want to acknowledge their cringey sides. Along the way, they discuss their fears around getting old and looking old, explore the idea of performative acts of kindness, and how much they miss the old Kanye.


    Unfortunately, this isn't some thought-provoking tutorial on how not to be cringe -- just two homies trying to be at peace with the embarrassing, awkward, or uncomfortable parts of themselves. Hope you enjoy and thank you for still listening!

  • Episode 32: Post-Election Feelings and Believing in "Miracles"

    Rio and Neil are back at it again with brand new haircuts and the same old Tanduay!  

    Neil starts the show by revealing that he's a manic pixie dream girl. Meanwhile, Rio asks what's stopping them from being e-boys/e-girls? Then, they get serious for a moment to discuss the outcome of the elections and analyze if toxic Kakampinks played a crucial part in BBM's victory (aside from his troll army).  

    Several shots later, they ask themselves: Do you still believe in "miracles"? How do you pick yourself up when life keeps punching you right in the gut? What does it really feel like to be independent? Also, ga taga-tuga ang duha nga walay anak ug Parenting Masterclass.   

    With extra special bonus content: - uwu noises & surprise song and dance numbers (plural!)
