In Addition

Topic: Alone in a Crowd You, me and this thing we like! That should guarantee we share a lot of other interests in common, right? Unfortunately no. Finding yourself as the odd man out in a fandom, forum or group can be more common than expected. The pandas talk about their “alone in a crowd” moments, and how finding a like-minded fan group can be so liberating. We Show Some Love:  Passion Fun...

Topic: Birthdays! How do you like to celebrate? June is the birthday month for Swan’s family, and she wants to know what the other trash pandas do to celebrate. Spoilers: It gets a little real, and a little depressing, but it’s what you love about us! Also, does your birthday astrology match you? And what do YOU like to do on your birthday? We Show Some Love: Swan Family Birthdays! Follow, Like, a...

Episode 6 - Swan Topic: What are your daily rituals? Is it that first cup of coffee, or making your bed? What are the daily rituals that need to be done before you continue with your day? Also, In Addition tackles the CORRECT way to put on socks and shoes, and not so silently judges if you do it the wrong way.

Episode 5 - Tony Topic: Choose your ‘tater! Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, put ‘em in a stew! What’s your preferred way to consume spuds?

Who knew the adventure to Potatordor (Potato Mordor) would be so fraught with peril! We Show Some Love: Tony P. Oddcast (https://anchor.fm/tonypoddcast...

Episode 4 - Steph Topic: What are your “non-productive” hobbies? As the In Addition team proved with the previous topic of “How do you know when it’s time to take a break?” we aren’t always good at “free time,” and this episode only reinforces that. The team tries to come up with hobbies that aren’t actually productive, and the answer to Steph’s question might just be naps. What are YOUR non-produ...

Episode 3 - Mike Topic: Weirdest “not my job” at your job You asked for it, and we...delivered? Technically we did all tell stories of tasks at our jobs, that were certainly NOT our jobs. Also deemed, in chat, the grossest episode of In Addition yet, so that’s a win. Big thank you to listener ‘st3althdad’ for this submission!

Episode 2 - Swan Topic: How do you get in your groove? Is it a to-do list? Or your favorite playlist? How do you find that great working groove when you want to get stuff done? In true trash panda style we also spend a lot of time talking about rest stop/road trip etiquette and snacks. Join us live to learn more about Pork Chop Fridays, and how hyped they get us.

Episode 1 - Tony P Topic: When is it time for a break? Welcome, Trash Pandas, to the re-launch of In Addition podcast! New line-up featuring Tony P, Mike, Steph and Swan. On this first episode back it’s, “How do you know when it’s time for a break?” Most of us seem to only realize it’s time AFTER we've reached our breaking point. Hopefully with that info you can all learn from us and do better you...

One week it’s talk of collections, this episode it’s all about what needs to go! It started as a conversation about what to get rid of….but we just couldn’t part with it! Join Step and Swan, and special guest Mike as we justify all the reasons we need to keep these items in our house. Have a great idea of how we can declutter?

Phil is finally getting an opportunity to share his love of wieners. You read that right - -weiners. He runs the gamut of hotdogs and how we like them. Is one better than another?

After he “GOT HARD” with Charles and the ADD boys, guest Mike Ellison joins In ADDition to talk separating the personal from the business when at work. Is it possible to have this separation in every business? Or are there some jobs where the separation of personal and professional feelings is impossible.

Even though Mike’s title sounds suspect it turns out great. He asks us what is something you feel that only you and seemingly 15 other people know about. We bring up music, shows, animations, and games. Which ones did you know about and which ones are new to you?

It's the moment we have all been waiting for! Charles brings the lets play for this month. Today's game is “Lost in Translation”. Movie titles sometimes are localized to specific countries effectively changing the title. In this game we take those titles and translate them into english. You have to guess at what the original movie title is. Phil, Tony, and Mike all compete to best each other in th...

Phil brings the northern aggression in this episode with his question of Cake vs Pie. Instead of universal harmony like RGOP brings he forces us to choose sides in this war of brother dessert vs brother dessert. Arguments over what is cake or pie fly as charles then breaks everyones brains with pizza cake. We Show Some Love: We show the love for you Featured Guest: Follow, Like, and Subscribe: @Al...

Look at this stuff! Isn’t it neat? Whether it's copies of the same novel, or every variant cover of a comic, Steph and Swan discuss what they collect. Often, it is the sentimental attachment to items in our collections that ends up meaning the most.

Itsyaboimike jumps in for the Friday show to try to one-up the Rock God himself. He knows we did the weird superpowers but he wants to talk about the good ones. Lots of good superpowers with practicality and a few mixed mash from different universes.  Forever is never as long as you would think.

Tony P. Is back like herpes or Frank Gallagher. We tolerate him thinking this is his house and humor him with letting Tony kick off the recording night. He tells of his road trip and wants to know how we go on road trips.  It was a ton of fun even if some people (mike) need some rescuing.

Stephanie Crugnola submitted a question via email last week about what is our go-to karaoke songs and we loved it.

Mike is pulling from his life and wants some home improvement advice. Basically, where do we draw the line from where we will fix something ourselves and when will we pay someone to do it. There are some weird areas of what we will and won’t do. And Joe highlights how letting someone help you is really helping them.

Lights, microphone, alcohol(?) …it’s time to SING! Steph and Swan get into their top picks to sing for Karaoke, songs to avoid, if alcohol is a necessary component, and the understanding that the next in person DragonCon is going to involve AT LEAST one round of karaoke. Make sure to head to Twitter and VOTE for In ADDition (...or ADD), and which karaoke set-list you think rocks. We Show Some Love...

Charles is traveling through some new educational territory where he is refining his interpersonal and management skills. He recently saw a video from a mix of motivational speakers called “Stop being soft get hard.” So he makes the mistakes of asking the boys advice on balancing being hard vs being an asshole. There is a definitive mix of perspectives tonight and we don’t all agree. We Show Some...

Phil is a little ornery today as he talks about his love of Nickelodeon. He recently watched the Orange Years documentary and wanted to know what our memories of it were.

It’s about that time to start thinking about what you want to cosplay at DragonCon! We talk about plans, what we love,  what we hate about it, how we pick characters, source pieces etc. Also, does it need to be perfectly accurate to be good? (Answer: No). We also open up suggestions from the audience - what do you think the In ADDition girls and the ADD boys should cosplay as? We Show Some Lo...
