We Made It

What an episode folks, not only do we open with ASMR meets "The Office" but we also get sidetracked by our forgetful brains over a dozen times. If it were a drinking game you'd be toasted (drink every time the hosts forget what they were talking about). We peruse the various forms of ASMR, and delve into a hypothesis involving Ozempic and its future implications in social status. We got on a roll...

Who do you think would play the characters in Grumpy Old Men if it were being cast today? We throw out our ideas but would honestly love to hear what you, our listeners, think. We lead into Gen A slang with some real ones like: who's this diva?, Pose 28, and big back. We learn the origins of "math lady" the meme. Our most discussed topic this week surround exponential growth in knowledge that peop...

We recap the Halloween costumes of 2024 that we witnessed out in the wild. We discuss SpaceX in Ukraine and Elon Musk in general. This leads us to a recent article which reveals the name of a mega donor to the Center for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH). Our ramblings lead to mentions of the American election coming up, as well as our very own Doug Ford here in Ontario and the changes he is maki...

This week we have a spooktacular costume toting episode where we discuss costumes of yesteryear aka inappropriate costumes. We agreed to take note of costumes we see this year and promise to discuss on our next episode. Further on in the show we hone in on the absolute insanity that is luggage fees when travelling. WE believe it's gotten out of hand; will the live chat agent gives us the answers?...

No joke, we discuss heavily salmon conservation in the Ganaraska River. As a local, Jenna has the inside scoop on some changes that happened this year, and because Colin and his family were visiting over the weekend they got to see (and smell) the unique experience that is the salmon run. Colin shares perspective on strength building, mindfulness, and meditation as Jenna explains her take aways wh...

This week is a fun episode in which we discuss different indoor climate options, truth seeking, emotions, and fun sidebars in between. Our thesaurus of Gen Alpha terms is growing.  We close on a fun game that Colin introduces.

We are initially consumed this week by a recent portage camping trip that Jenna took with her (handsome) husband Jordan. Discussing the various sights, trails and sites that we have collectively travelled through over the years. We genuinely discuss bees at the one hour mark and return to the camping debrief. We end on Gen Alpha terms; biblically accurate. And note to all listeners "demure" is out...

Oh boy what a week this has been. Updates on the youth of today are in full swing.

Surrogacy is a topic that not many people might know or even want to know about. However, this week our very own Jenna talks about her own experience as a current surrogate in Canada. The various tangents we dive into as our conversation unfolds help paint in broader strokes the overall takeaway from the episode. While the personal tales and narrative that Jenna shares is her own unique take on he...

This week we have our dear friend join us and share some very vulnerable parts of his life, including his recovery from drug addiction.

We hope that Tony's story will inspire those who listen and help those wh...
