Episode 299 | Side A / Side B

Happy September! Demaris has discovered the meaning of a classic song, and Mal once again is here to prove that he’s a bit… different… than the rest of us . The team does our bi-quarterly Mental Health Check In, where Rory shares some challenges he is facing, including balancing fatherhood and work (14:34). Demaris and Julian share some struggles they faced this year as well(25:44), and Mal gives them some tried and true advice (33:01). They have a conversation about potentially leaving the entertainment industry and consider recession proof industries (41:04). The second half of the episode takes a strong turn, with discussion on illegal plastic surgery, how awkward soaking as a Mormon must be, and how cocaine and Chinese food should replace Ozempic (51:57). We have voicemails! The first one is from a fan who gained a marriage and lost friends (1:11:11), and the second is from a woman wanting to know why men and women have seemed to switch roles in courtship - leading to a conversation that will probably get us cancelled (1:16:13).
