Why Are You Like This?

SURPRISE. We're coming at you twice this week with an exciting addition-- this season, we're serving WHOROSCOPES once a month. So, tune in and check out. We (non-astrologers) are giving you a rundown of who's going to have the best August ever... and who's going to have the worst August ever. Don't say we didn’t warn you.

This week on the pod’s Season Three Premiere, we’re talking all about Imposter Syndrome. You know... that feeling when you doubt your accomplishments and have that nagging fear of being exposed as a "fraud". It’s a feeing we come to believe we can truly ALL enjoy.

This week on the pod, we’re bringing you some of our favorite moments from Seasons 1 & 2 of Why Are You Like This? This week’s BEST OF is a trip down memory lane with a guest appearance by Mariska Hargitay.

This week on the pod, we’re delving into the literal and preverbal heart of purity balls. We’re telling you everything you need to know about a little documentary called The Virgin Daughters. We’ll tell you what has us pulling our hair out, who has some pretty redeeming qualities, and who might just be performing an elaborate cosplay— all while a bunch of daughters in Colorado Springs pledge their virginity to their fathers. Yep, you heard that right.

This week on the pod, we’re diving into the world of Swingers. We’re talking about what television programming taught us and what some psychologists are hearing via some interesting data collection. We’ll also take a journey through which of Brad Pitt’s couplings are our preferred swinging partners... So, are your keys in the bowl?

This week on the pod, we’re recounting stories of people who had memories of events before they were alive as well as the science behind generations of inherited trauma. And without even trying we’re back to the great debate of nature versus nurture. So are you born a blank slate or do you come preprogrammed?

This week on the pod, we take a hard look at Hyperthymesia or Super Memory. Because we’ve got to ask— What would it be like to remember every detail of your life and have easy access to recall any memory at any time? Does forgetting help us find a clarity that remembering doesn’t allow us to have? And who is this mysterious Jill character?

This week on the podcast, we’re doing something a little different... we’re taking you on the road with us. We’re talking the adventurous spirit of road trips, what makes an ideal companion, and (maybe most importantly) our preferred snacks for the occasion. So, meet us at the Cracker Barrel?

This week on the pod, we’re talking about those friendships you formed because people were... well, they just happened to be there. Is there merit in this kind of relationship? Can it become something deeper or are we just using each other? And yeah, we’d like to know— are you still friends with that girl from your dorm?
