  • I promise you I will: commitments
    Sep 7 2025

    As Sev heads off to uni (go WLU Golden Hawks!), he and Mel have an important conversation about making and keeping commitments, the kind of heavy stuff that sometimes makes being an adult suck. This may be our last episode ever or at least for a while, so give it a listen.

  • We don't need that fascist groove thang - politics
    Aug 1 2025

    Sevrin starts his studies in poli sci in September, 36 years after Mel did, at the same university no less. Politics is in our genes, apparently, so we figured it was time to talk about it, from the importance of political literacy and fact-checking to the role of education, family, friends and social media in shaping our opinions. We've updated the playlist with a few good protest songs too, for your further listening pleasure.
