Finding a job is not easy. Like learning to drive while driving, there’s a learning curve to how to find employment, which you need to climb while applying to job openings. There’s also a mental health aspect to unemployment that often goes under appreciated, as well as the need to still feel creative and productive. In this episode, David and Eugene have an honest conversation about Eugene’s recent experience looking for work and also discuss the practical and concrete steps that he found most helpful in his job search. (Note we recorded this episode earlier this year and since then Eugene has happily been employed.) As always, thanks for listening!

Did you know that 30-40 million Americans have arachnophobia? And among them is one of the two of us? In this episode, David and Eugene review the somewhat obscure 1990 “thrill-omedy” Arachnophobia. We discuss what turns out to be our very different memories of how this movie showed up in our childhoods, whether this Jeff Daniels, John Goodman film holds up decades later, and what it was like to experience the movie again in real time. As always, thanks for watching!

"To teach is to touch a life forever." - UnknownToday’s episode was meant to be the second half of our discussion of the book Who Moved My Cheese? But as sometimes (often?) happens on this podcast, David and Eugene veered instead toward a different conversation -- this time about ADD/ADHD and neurodivergence. As always, thank you for listening!

David and Eugene have been on a 90’s kick recently, and are sticking with the trend with a review of the business self-help best seller “Who Moved My Cheese?” by Spencer Johnson. We discuss the fable of the two mice and two “Littlepeople” named Hem and Haw, and how remarkably relevant the story remains today. We also apply the mindset from the book to our own lives. As always, thank you for listening!

“What would I do if I weren’t afraid?” - Haw
In the second half of our discussion of "Queen of Tears," David and Eugene talk about how the show ends, the richness of the characters in this family drama, how meta the show was, and which characters we identified with the most. David asks Eugene whether he'd ever want to visit Sanssouci Palace, and we discuss the endless tropes in K-drama land. As always, thanks for listening!

“I'm just a lucky man who married the love of my life.” – Baek Hyun Woo
In David’s ongoing effort to get Eugene hooked on K-dramas, we review the recent Netflix hit “Queen of Tears.” David and Eugene discuss what made this Korean drama so good, the main characters, villains, corporate intrigue, and love as seen in rom coms. As always, thanks for listening!
