I try a CIA-style trick to make people spill without asking a single question (and immediately botch it on my kid). I answer five actually-good questions so you can decide if you like me or have had enough. We get honest about journals as future family landmines, mushrooms/Zen and not caring what you think, the first laugh that ruined me at age six, and whether everyone’s quietly miserable (ask their spouse). Also: cocktail party questions that’ll get you uninvited, the gym’s… ambitious leggings trend, and a calorie-torching position I’m absolutely not doing.

If something makes you snort, tell me—that’s what stays. If it doesn’t, it dies. Press play and let’s find the 1% worth keeping.

I rewatched A Star Is Born and had to eat my words: for years I thought “I could’ve played those roles,” then Cooper drops a triple-threat and I’m like—nope. We get into why acting drunk is hard, Vince Vaughn worship, and my delusional Hangover-era confidence.

Meanwhile, a frank TRT update: more energy, weird cravings, and yes—titties. DIM, white mushrooms, carrot salad, Florida peptides, headaches, and how “not giving a f*ck” can quietly torpedo your life if you let it.

Also: Trader Joe’s culty checkout vibes, boarding school apps, the kid monoculture, accents I should retire, and a quick riff on gratitude/God.

Love,
