Episodes

9. I have G.A.S. and YOU do too! 19.03.2025

For this episode, we go talk about G.A.S. Gear Acquisition Syndrome. It is a photography term based on the idea that photographers and videographers fall into the trap of constantly buying gear and building up their inventory of tools while also building up debt for the sake of solving the same problems that could have honestly been completed with LESS. This relates to ANYTHING we buy in our life...

8. Mental Fapping 12.03.2025

In this episode, we are talking about cheap dopamine hits which we call "Mental Fapping." We are constantly consuming content on a daily basis and it often keeps us from progressing in life, keeping us stuck, and we're using it in a way to ESCAPE from pain or discomfort. Let's explore ways we can break free from the mental fap.

7. You gotta MAN up! 05.03.2025

What does it mean to be a "Man"? In this episode, we explore what society believes masculinity is and we open up on how men are expected to suppress our humanness - our emotions for the sake of putting up a front of being an ideal conventional "man" + the consequences of keeping these emotions suppressed.

6. What if the process is the reward you've been looking for? 26.02.2025

In this episode, we talk about enjoying the journey more than the outcome. When reaching towards a goal, are you in full presence while in the process of taking actions towards a certain outcome? or are you just so tunnel-visioned that you forget the in-betweens along the way?

5. Did you side quest into your career? 19.02.2025

In this episode, we talk more about how our curiosity led in to the careers we have today being creatives and creating content. Perhaps experimenting may be the answer to anyone who feels lost in their own career.

4. Are relationships like a game of Pickleball? 12.02.2025

In this short episode, we are viewing dating and relationships like a game of pickleball. There are many shared qualities between both and perhaps after this, you will never see relationships the same way again!

3. What's the CRAZIEST DM that led to the first date? 05.02.2025

In this episode, we talk about modern dating and how we meet new people through apps but also what we learned from ignoring red flags for the sake of feeling validated by a potential partner.

2. Who decided YOUR life? 29.01.2025

In this episode, we talk about "should's" and "Supposed to be's" where we are at the mercy of what we think others think of us and then basing our life decisions upon our fabricated assumptions.

1. Pilot - Side quests 24.01.2025

Through this game of life, how did you end up figuring out your main journey? Your main quest? Truthfully, we figure that out via our "side quests."
