Nearing the end of a very busy summer, Seline drops by the podcast to update us on her life. She talks about her impending trip to the United States while Jay and Aaron regale her with stories from their recent trip to Busan. The conversation takes a few twists and turns but ultimately lands on the Olympics and how we're not really watching them. If you're in the mood to hear a pleasant conversation, this is your episode!

What do four ex-stoners do when their country is in lockdown and weed is extremely illegal? Talk about all the times they got high, of course. The episode starts off with debate over Space Jam: A New Legacy, then goes into stories of our first times toking up, encounters with school administrators and police officers, our favorite ways to inhale the sticky-icky, favorite stoner movies, shows, and albums, and a little chat about guacamole, post-credits. Swear to God we weren’t stoned for this one, folks.

In our quest to reach 200 followers, the podcast dishes about clout chasing, celebrity culture, and what each of us would be famous for. We also talk shit on Mark Zuckerberg’s Instagram page, debate the intents and impacts of cancel culture, try to wrap our heads around why Cosby is free, and compliment the 26-year-old intern’s new face tattoos. We conclude the episode by swapping stories of us meeting celebrities in real life.

William Butler Yeats once wrote: "There are no strangers here; only friends you haven't yet met." 

In this week's episode we share our worst interactions with these so called "friends". We discuss sliding into DMs, being courted by sexy cultists, whether we are good judges of character, and much more. Notable stories include: Jay befriending an ajumma, Andrew getting trolled abroad, Chris hating Indian scammers, and Aaron meeting a stranger with a foot fetish. The episode concludes with a few "confessions" from Reddit that you won't wanna miss. Enjoy!

In what can only be described as our shittiest episode, the gang shares its gnarliest pee, poo, and barf stories. And yeah, it’s kinda gross! Topics include: waxing hairy assholes, pooping in public restrooms, pissing our pants, the best way to fold toilet paper, developing the ability to puke on-demand, and an ass-whole lot more. Enjoy!

If you’ve ever wanted to know more about Chris (a.k.a. “the 26-year-old-intern”), this is your chance! Originally published right after he graduated from UCLA in December 2020, this episode is with all seriousness one of our best. In it, Chris recounts his struggles with depression and addiction, subsisting off of Taco Bell and bong rips for the better half of his college career. But in those struggles also lies critical honesty, vulnerability, and ultimately--triumph. We’re proud of our boy, and after you listen to this episode we promise you’ll be too.

Everyone's back! The podcast reunites for the first time in a couple of weeks to dish about traveling to America, vaccination stories, Andrew's gripes with Seoul city folk, how to deal with a murder of bros, another cringe-y crush story, a traumatizing Tinder date, and much more. Full disclosure: this episode has nothing to do with the actual "Friends" reunion special, but we're gunning for similar numbers.

The year was 2020. The month: November. Jay was taking Korean classes at Sogang University, the Intern was slogging through his last semester at UCLA, Aaron was learning how to host a podcast, and Seline came on as a special guest. 

You don’t want to miss this legendary rerelease! Not only does it mark the first time Seline and Aaron joined forces on the mic, but it’s also replete with an array of topics: horoscope compatibility, people who suck at communication, first date nightmares, and stories of cheating in high school (don’t lie…you did it too). The stars perfectly aligned for this one, folks. Check out The Side Dish’s fate in the making.

On this week’s episode, we talk about all things crush-y. For instance, are you the serial crusher or the one getting crushed? What IS crushing, and do you do it as an adult? Jay and Seline discuss the magic, the humiliation, and the ridiculousness of crushing with friends of the podcast Elaine Shin and Elena Kim. We dish on being late bloomers, obsessing over strangers at WeWork, and how at the end of the day, reality will never live up to the fantasies we construct in our minds. We end the episode with a heated discussion on how Balto the dog is hot af and discover that all our childhood celebrity crushes were basic ass white men.
