i’m afraid i have taken ill and shan’t improve for at least half a fortnight, BUT i was still able to record this episode before my voice became completely incoherent codswallop. this week, we chat about menstrual mayhem, coworker confidants (or lack thereof), and figuring out what i like to do as a freshly minted post-graduate. don’t forget the AITA story about conflicting morals regarding a fat juicy steak. let’s get into it!!

oh yeah, this is the one for my folks who remember who what when where why and how they were when the hunger games dropped down to earth to become the most iconically influential piece of media to ever change pop culture as we know it. today, the odds are in all of your favors because i’m giving you a deep dive into my thoughts, feelings, and experiences regarding the hunger games franchise in its entirety. somehow, there’s still enough room in this episode for my disdain for sprite prices, some therapy thoughts, and an AITA about 2 friends who honestly sound like they just need to have a long conversation complete with a good ol’ fashioned cry sesh. so if the hunger games isn’t your thing (which like, WHY???) there’s still something here for you this week. let’s get into it!!

this week, on a very non-descript, could-literally-be-a-random-day-in-early-march day, i talk about my reignited devotion to platonic love, my guiding words for the new year, and a recent epiphany i had about the quality of a person who’s a bad friend, complete with a topical AITA post that has me feeling conflicted (to say the least). i have a lotta thoughts on this one, so let’s get into it!!
