Gentlemen - I'm seeing this too much. Whatever city I live in - it's a recurring problem. Women are buying clothes that are obviously not for them. Time to grow up and take care of yourself. In this episode, I cover tips and tricks but you have to invest some time and effort in your fashion. Especially if you don't care about fashion. 

Today's episode I explore the topic of traveling alone. I am a big proponent of doing things by yourself. Checking out restaurants, bars, road trips, movies, etc. I even think that one should travel by themselves - if it's only a few days. Many people have supposedly stated that most of their long-term solo travels have been spiritual and enlightening. I don't believe that. I've traveled for up to a week by myself and was aching for some company after day 4. I go in more depth about it on the show. 

Portland is a beautiful city that has a lot of history and plenty of eateries. Restaurants that represent food from different parts of the globe can be found all over. Most of it is delicious - except Mexican food. I cover my experience while living here with different Mexican restaurants and how the city lacks any supermercados and Mexican products. I miss home - can you tell?

This episode is a bit different because I had a situation where the love story sours but the takeaway is priceless. I cover the gripes that come as part of the online dating world but I share a recent connection that changed my way of thinking. If you feel frustrated and hopeless with dating, this will give you a smile and possibly reconsider giving up on it. 

I'm covering the meeting and not the process. We have gripes about the process (swiping, texting, etc.). This episode is actually about meeting in person, connecting on a superior level, goes well for a bit and then bam! it all falls apart. Has this ever happen to you? You meet someone, get overly excited about them, and then they demonstrate why they're still single. This is also the first episode that you'll hear something about my personal life. I know you feel privileged. 

Have you ever known someone who's been at their job a little too long? They complain, they're complacent and everyone either talks about them or they're avoided like the plague? Perhaps you were once like this - hopefully no longer. I've been both sides of the table and it was definitely a learning experience. We explore this topic and how to avoid becoming a part of it. Once you realize it's happening to you - it's quite simple - either move on or move out! I explain more in this episode. 

Have you've seen how many items have gone up during the quarantine? How about how they've gone up a little bit more now that the recovery started? Even services have gone up. We'll talk about this and about why I haven't bought a bike. 

I get it, it's America's birthday and we should celebrate. We should celebrate responsibly though. Find out why I think ALL fireworks should be outlawed. Yes, even the legal ones!

Wow, global warming might be real. The whole west coast is under a heat wave with no end in sight. Also, workplace politics frustrating you? Yeah, me too. Let's complain about it. 

I cover 2 different topics on today's show. Not a gripe but how is that that when you actually need a store employee for help - you can't find one. Also, are you prepared for the traffic to come back now that everything's opening up again? I'm definitely not enjoying that.
