Revenge Against My Landlord's Son (w/ Sidney Raskind) | Perfect Person Ep. 28

[@alexare6655]

Crazy how miles found the *exact* same colour shirt where he is now the chair.

[@zerocraic3966]

He’s perfect in every way.

[@nowthatsurban]

Miles is now the chair? No, he was always the chair. You just didn't care enough to notice before. How dare you

[@alexare6655]

@@nowthatsurban I always care but apparently *you* don't care to notice the transformation. The boy grew.

[@zerocraic3966]

Shoutout to miles for making it ethical for everyone to think about wanting to sit on him for comfort

[@dreZmay]

No matter how many times it's been done, the restarting of the sad music will always be funny.

[@simplicitylost]

It’s always so good. He always says he needs to loop the audio longer and I’m always happy that he hasn’t done it yet.

[@abee906]

Miles I feel like a key to the coffee shop story you shared is that you made yourself vulnerable. So often anger is masking hurt, sadness, so many other things. Love that you're encouraging everyone to lean into what might be behind the upset-ness and communicating genuinely from that place. Quaker school for the win!

[@MissMelmo]

Haven’t fully woken up yet and I definitely thought you were wearing the biggest shoulder pad/popped collar combo. The mustard on mustard got me.

[@georgiakuchinsky]

Miles has the best attitude to life ever. I never feel like I'm being preached to, it's just solid life advice.

[@KittenCece]

The awkward tension giggles during the real moment, and the awkward need to reset the music, all while talking about deep, often heavy, intimate feelings; it's perfect.

[@heyummrandommuch]

HELL YEAHHHHHHH. DO NOT SELF EVICT! EVICTIONS TAKE TIME AND MONEY! IF YOUR LANDLORD WANTS TO KICK YOU OUT- MAKE THEM SPEND THE TIME AND MONEY ON A LEGAL EVICTION! Love this podcast so much! I'm a founding member of my local tenants union and this episode was incredible! I'm also head barista at a local coffee bar! And try to be the kindest person I can be! Truly my favorite podcast.

[@RyanIsOnYoutube]

Nah, they’re the assholes in this situation. Squatters.

[@rachelpetrilli3477]

You ARE this episode of the podcast.

[@Elizabethcantsing]

Man, I've been in situations like Miles' coffee shop story and it honestly made me tear up listening to him talk about it. It's so hard to cool yourself down after something like that happens and him approaching that guy with empathy probably really reached that barista at whatever he was personally going through.

[@jackl8025]

Sid was a great guest, I've never seen his stuff before but he's a Certified Real One

[@AnupapayaPoopy]

I've had landlord trauma from my past and both of you vehemently being anti-landlord really helped me process some of it. Thanks y'all!

[@saraa.7836]

When Sid said “it’s a reinvorgation of grief”, that really hit me

[@emilydelkus5720]

Miles is becoming one with the chair, excited to watch this journey

[@michellespangler5602]

I really resonated with this episode's get real segment. When my first baby was born I had no idea what I was doing and while I was overwhelmed with love, I was also just overwhelmed. I was 21 and it was hard and I remember constantly thinking "I can't wait for him to be a little bit bigger" because it was sort of scary holding something so small. I'd think "I can't wait until he can crawl so I don't have to hold him 24/7" because he never liked to be put down. I couldn't wait for this and that and for time to just pass to when I wasn't so scared or stressed. I just had my second baby this past November and the memory of thinking those things hits me so hard. I will never get that time back with my first and there's a sting of guilt in my heart everytime I really savor these little baby moments with my newest. I know it's because I've learned these moments with this person don't make a second run around so maybe I shouldn't or don't have to feel guilt for learning that, but I really wish I fully understood all this the first time. I can never go back and feel his tiny body in my arms again and hold him all day long. It is so important to really take everything in while it's happening and realize you won't be able to do it over or again.

[@leoniemoats7467]

I have one child and will only ever have one. I will forever grieve the first year of my childs life. So much I can not remember. So busy surviving and battling PPD. Its heartbreaking

[@cookiedragon8234]

What an episode. Wow. This Get Real section will stay with me for a long time

[@victormartinez8220]

Yo Miles! Just gotta say I flippin’ love your podcast… there hasn’t been a single episode where my stomach isn’t in my a** because of how much I laugh and makes my day so much better… as well as taking away some pretty big life lessons too. Literally put it in the background as the official comfort podcast. Love it… maybe I’ll be a caller one day, who knows… either way: legend

[@zerocraic3966]

It’s nothing but hits. This and snoop doggs affirmation rap for children keep me going on tough mornings

[@Olivia-uy8bi]

So true!! I get such a big smile every Wednesday when I click on the podcast 😊

[@Namite0001]

From a distance, Miles just looks like a floating head and some hands 😂 love this podcast Miles!

[@rhiannonlister517]

Got so invested in the podcast in the middle of the night i didn’t realise someone had broken into my house (Real. We are safe. It’s kinda funny. Take it as a positive review maybe?😂)

[@TheShauNanigans]

I'm going to need more information. Was it a friend that knew you were home so it's more of a funny mishap?

[@rhiannonlister517]

@@TheShauNanigans unfortunately not lmao I’m disabled and have an assistance dog but he changed to guard dog real quick at least 😅

[@TheShauNanigans]

@@rhiannonlister517 Oh my goodness! Good job to your pupper for saving the day! I'm glad you're okay, but that had to be scary.

[@marilynvazzz]

Wow. Okay Miles. Y’all got me, y’all really did. There’s a quote that says, “grief is sneaky. A sound, a scent, a song, a smile can become tears.” And boy is that the truth. On Christmas Eve I lost my paternal grandfather and I was devastated. He was in his 80s but he acted younger than me lol. He was not a regular grandpa, he was a cool, goofy and youthful grandfather. Active and always a jokester. Never was he tired. Always dancing and being his playful self. So you can imagine how my family and I were so in denial of his passing. How many things he’s going to miss. All of my accomplishments and achievements that I know he would have loved to see. But now I know I can still achieve that and more with a greater reason and that will be for him. Thank you miles. For everything. These past few weeks have been a lot and I’m glad I was able to cross paths with this wonderful podcast. Keep it up. We all need a distraction.

[@dollhaus8690]

This has quickly become my favorite podcast. My favorite episodes are gaslighting my wife and the frienemy revenge 😂😂

[@MJ-mn9qk]

This podcast feels extremely connecting and humanizing to hear other’s stories and listen to you, like he said, someone they admire and enjoy, give back advice. It’s also like you’re giving back to your fans and continuing that human connection and humanization. It’s really beautiful and boosts my mood immensely

[@grllwrfr]

!!! i cannot emphasize enough how important the advice about landlords is !!! while the specifics do vary by area, tenants *always* have rights, and in order to be evicted, you *must* be informed and given a certain amount of time (e.g. 30 or 60 days) to move out. landlords LOVE to pull things out of their ass and straight up lie about the law to intimidate tenants, but stand your ground and they will back down!!!

[@TheShauNanigans]

To add to this, look into whether your city has a tenant union and what they can do to help you if you think your landlord isn't being ethical. There are a lot of things I see people put up with where I'm just like... you know that's illegal right? Landlords like to take advantage of people's lack of legal knowledge they typically have as tenants. If you can, don't be that tenant.

[@grllwrfr]

@@TheShauNanigans so true!!! unfortunately (esp in more conservative areas) the law doesn't provide nearly as much tenant protection as it should, but folks would be surprised what legal remedies and/or rights are available to them!

[@TheShauNanigans]

@@grllwrfr Sadly, you give up a lot of rights when living in conservative areas. (universal you)

[@justhuss616]

miles came thru with the camouflage today

[@alexrudie3538]

I can attest to the landlord item. I had a friend who was put up in a super nice apartment for MONTHS because the tenets in the apartment she was supposed to get refused to leave and they had to be taken to court and fully evicted. It took such a long time.

[@itsme_taylorlee]

I LOVE Sidney’s Clippy sweater!!!

[@AnaMYG]

The fact that I just saw Sidney for the 1st time in my fyp yesterday after he posted his experience at the lakers game and meeting Yoongi (SUGA) from BTS 😂 Just now I was like… wait I know this guy, where did I….? And then it clicked 😅

[@henbanana]

wait i didn't realize that's him 😂

[@motherj1208]

"I got names" ... Like Arya Stark? 😂

[@GreenGiant96]

Congrats on the new baby!! Miles posted on socials about it for anyone not aware

[@katnicole7060]

To piggy back off of the yellow shirt and chair comments.. I was going to make an “oh shit Miles is a floating head” joke ..but then I remember a time where I danced to a Backstreet Boys song (wearing green shorts) in front of a green screen and I thought I was so fucking cool bc I was a kid in a pretend music video that was apparently wearing invisible pants. I love this podcast it makes me giggle so much.

[@madelinemerlic5276]

When you talked about responding calmly to someone who is being an asshat to you, it totally reminded me of a time when my mom and I were at AT&T and the customer service rep was being a complete asshole to my mom. They were getting upset at her because she was having a hard time figuring out her phone. When it was all done, and my mom had went out to the car, I pulled them aside and I calmly said, it’s not cool the way your spoke to my mother; I get it can be frustrating to explain something over and over again, but it’s not excuse to treat someone with so much disrespect. They genuinely looked really sad and said they apologized. So I agree that speaking calmly to someone that mistreated you or was an asshole to you works.

[@ashleyjohnston7789]

About time is the most underrated movie of all time. I am so in love with it

[@cmae114]

Omg About Time is my all-time favorite movie and I feel like no one talks about it enough. Thanks for making that movie feel seen :')

[@rayswamp4858]

Love the movie About Time. I walked down the aisle to “How Long Will I Love You” at my wedding this past year, because of that movie!

[@julians4094]

perfect person action of the week 📢: i always watch on youtube, but i set the spotify episode of Perfect Person to the end, just so i could rate it 5 stars (it doesn't let you rate something you haven't listened to on the platform) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@twilliamson4874]

thank you for the comments about grief at the end - I have lost a couple of seriously close people, one recently and it was comforting to hear your perspectives.

hey myles, I just wanted to let you know that the story you told about the barista was so captivating that I completely forgot who you were talking to and what their problem is that you were trying to solve like I was just like so caught up in the beauty and the magic of that barista story, and I’m kind of inspired by it like the next time I encounter an asshole you’ve just giving me so much inspiration for how to handle those sorts of situation’s in a healthy way so thanks for that. Also, I did smoke a little weed before watching the episode so sorry for the essa

[@SanzariMichaela]

Oh my god, I'm so happy you brought up About Time. I can't even handle how good that movie is and when people are not freaking out about it it makes me so sad for them. Like...who hurt you?

[@racer4369]

I love About time! Such a good movie. I recently gotten into anime movies there are 2 in particular I think you'd like Miles. 1. The girl who leapt through time. It also has time travel and grief elements like About a time. 2. Your Name. It's more centered on romance but it also has time travel and the animation is marvelous.

[@rachelpetrilli3477]

Sid and Miles, awesome show, great job

[@thepuppydog26]

Miles: "This isn't a spoiler, really" Also Miles: *describes the entire conclusion of the movie and the whole point it was trying to make* 😅Great film, though.

I love your cafe story Miles, but I have been to some cities/countries (cough cough UK) where angry/irritable customer service reps are so common that I would have to be confronting people 5 times a day. That’s why I most of the time I just suck it up and smile.

[@babelincoln4686]

I do plant research so every time Miles says "agro" my mind immediately goes to "agrobacterium"

[@TheShauNanigans]

I came here to talk about the paper clip Christmas sweater and how amazing it is and completely missed that Miles disappeared into his easy chair. I'm only 2 minutes in, so hopefully I would have noticed eventually, but I thank the comments for letting me know how oblivious I am. Ha!

[@TheShauNanigans]

I am so happy you chose your brother's name as your son's middle name, Miles. I was so hoping you would. I know you are such a good father already since mini-Miles is already born. Sending you all the best wishes. If mini-Miles isn't his first name, though, I'm unsubscribing. 🙃

[@ktswing88]

Don’t you have fire at Will in the US though? Like when buzzfeed randomly fires everyone.

[@TheShauNanigans]

It depends on a lot of things. If you're union it is more difficult to fire someone. The employer would need to have a legit reason. Many states are "at will" states as you say here where the employee or the employer could end employment at any time. It is customary to put in a 2 weeks notice, but there are a lot of reasons not to do that as well as an employee (in my opinion). Not every state is an "at will" state, however. And I don't really know a lot about that, so I won't speak on it and offer likely incorrect information.

[@devereuxxo]

Nah commit to the bit.
