This week, we somehow get into talking about different bodily functions, including why Maria goes to an ENT doctor, and about our cardiovascular system. PSA: running as a cardio workout isn’t ideal for everyone!

This week, we film at 9 PM and chaos ensues. We talk about the movie “Minari”, the anime “Given”, the Try Guys, Schitt’s Creek, Bojack Horseman, family dynamics, Brittany’s hatred of TikTok, and how apparently Maria can’t see much in her brain…? There’s a lot but also nothing said at the same time so have fun listening!

This week, it’s a classic “we’re winging it” episode. We talk about Easter, #StopAAPIHate and #StopAsianHate, and peanut butter? Please amplify all BIPOC voices and causes (in particular Asian, Asian American, and Pacific Islander voices and causes). Please also amplify your family and friends and their voices and causes. And please make sure you keep people around you accountable.

Welcome to our last week of our Month of Music! This week we talk all things concerts and read a couple of listener messages relating to their concert experiences. Additionally, Maria has some words to say about #StopAsianHate and #StopAAPIHate so please give that a listen as well. Thank you everyone for listening to this month’s content - we’ll see what topic Brittany comes up with next!

Welcome to Week 3 of our Month of Music! This week we have Andrew Kavanagh on the pod! We dive into what exactly music therapy is, therapy in general, how life is just vibrations, being a part of a collective, Andrew’s personal music journey, and so, so much more. Thank you to Andrew for coming onto the podcast!

Additionally, we are hoping to have your (yes, you reading this) input on a future episode! Help us close out our Month of Music by emailing, DMing, commenting, or even coming onto the podcast to share your past concert experiences and what concerts/live music means to you. Deadline to give us a paragraph or two (or a whole essay’s worth of content!) or to let us know that you want to join us will be Friday, March 26th!

Welcome to Week 2 of our Month of Music! First of all, I think we’ve FINALLY figured out Brittany’s audio. Thank you all for being patient with us - we’re still learning. Anyway, we continue talking about music and get into our preferred genres, artists we listen to, the influence music has on our daily lives, and how easily accessible music is now. Spoiler alert:  Brittany likes to belt out in the car whereas Maria cannot say the word synesthesia... and also she still thoroughly enjoys K-pop. Lastly, we are hoping to have your (yes, you reading this) input on a future episode! Help us close out our Month of Music by emailing, DMing, commenting, or even coming onto the podcast to share your past concert experiences and what concerts/live music means to you. Deadline to give us a paragraph or two (or a whole essay’s worth of content!) or to let us know that you want to join us will be Friday, March 26th!

We’ve dubbed March 2021 as the Month of Music here on the Be More Podcast! So tune in on the both of us geeking out on music for the next few weeks. This week we specifically talk about TAYLOR SWIFT (FINALLY) and her Folklore and Evermore albums. We also start talking about the music industry in general, record labels, music documentaries, how we intake/appreciate different forms of media, and much more. Oh and Maria fully geeks out when Brittany plays that one part in Taylor Swift’s song “August”.

This week we have two special guests! We welcome back Dan and welcome his wife, Michelle. We continue the conversation we had with Dan back in December (go check out episode 41!) regarding his deployment, growing up, and learning about his trauma. This time, we get Michelle’s point of view and how they both grew and learned together. To connect with Dan, follow him on Instagram @goodmorningfeels.

Books mentioned: Atomic Habits by James Clear and The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy

This week we talk about how time is an illusion and how we can’t believe it’s been a year into this podcasting journey. Also, Brittany has a TON of opinions on the COVID vaccine and the medical world in general. Thank you as always for tuning in. Here’s to another year of podcasting.
