Premeditated Opinions

This week on Premeditated Opinions , Josh does the unthinkable: he interviews his wife.  That’s right! The first official People You Should Know segment features Krista Miller: artist, mom, musician, and long-suffering spouse of one co-host with too many opinions. Together with Pamela, they dive into the messy magic of creativity, infertility, and the long, weird road from “this is just for me” to...

This week on Premeditated Opinions , Josh tells the kind of story that makes you want to call your mom... or at least check your Ancestry login. What started as a 26-foot U-Haul and a bottle of ibuprofen turns into a heart-opening story about adoption, DNA tests, and finding biological family in the middle of a pandemic. Pamela plays emotional detective as Josh unpacks his genetic detective , FedE...

This week on Premeditated Opinions, Pamela and Josh dive into the world of Scientology — where self-help meets science fiction and billion-year contracts come with free trauma. From the mystery of Shelly Miscavige to why smart people fall for cults, we unpack faith, fear, and the desperate human need to belong. Then we turn the mirror on modern religion — exploring why church sometimes feels like...

This week on Premeditated Opinions, Pamela and Josh tackle the wild world of parenting, profanity, and public policy — from road rage karaoke (“Nice effing brake lights!” 🎶) to why kids have an uncanny ability to remember exactly the words you wish they’d forget.

This week on Premeditated Opinions, Josh takes a trip to the dentist that nearly turned into a cardiac event,  while Pamela sips her coffee and reminds us that bourbon at 9am is “probably frowned upon.” Between numbing shots, elevated heart rates, and a hygienist saying “whoa” (never say “whoa”), we compare notes on stage fright vs. public speaking, parenting kids through orchestra/viola/violin co...

This week on Premeditated Opinions: Pamela and Josh test the limits of millennial linguistics: Southern drawls, Steve Irwin narrations of household pets, and why saying “listen” is basically a personality type. We dig into accents, bias, and how a Kentucky-Dallas hybrid can be both “city girl” and “Data Cowgirl,” while still getting side-eyed in tech for elongating vowels. From there, we spiral (r...

This week on Premeditated Opinions: Pamela and Josh cover the truly important things: stalking authors (lovingly), bourbon correctness (it’s Kentucky or it’s whiskey), and whether the new electric VW ID. Buzz is the millennial minivan of our dreams. We spiral through culture, faith, and streaming TV, with just enough politics to keep your blood pressure spicy and your Google tabs open. Pamela gush...

This week on Premeditated Opinions : Death by Southwest isn’t a true crime story (though it sure feels criminal when your flight’s been delayed for the 8th time). In this episode of Premeditated Opinions, we dive headfirst into the absurdity of modern air travel — from chaotic check-ins and lost luggage to the legendary Southwest meltdown that left travelers stranded, broke, and questioning their...

This week on Premeditated Opinions: Pamela and Josh unpack the chaos of modern life — from the battlefield that is the school carpool line to the heartbreaking reality of lockdown drills.
