I love her and her energy with you two is PERFECTION. Loved the southern whites venn diagram.

When it comes to unwanted sales pitches, a tactic I usually find effective but still polite is to gently interject with: “Excuse me, I want to be respectful of your time so I have to say that I’m really not interested - but thank you.”

5:45 I’m listening to this while eating/drinking boba 🤧

[@Herodotus77]

Man. That Muppet analogy is spot on.

[@kineokami]

I have a suggestion. I started dancing about 5 months ago, I have been taking arial dance and acro dance classes. I would think there are studios in your area, you would do well and it'll make you sweat. Thank you for such a fun podcast episode

[@BACFYF]

The rundown she gave about religion and homophobia is a masterclass

[@hilliard665]

"you're getting weirder and weirder" don't I know it boys

[@raeorion]

I'm 33 and I loved the Muppets 🤣 I'll admit enough of that was long enough ago I don't remember a lot of specifics but it was definitely formative

[@PeanutPeanutWow]

Russel's laugh is just golden

[@Shawkster6]

Sounds like Gianmarco wants a Zumba or BODYJAM class!

[@janedoe4316]

Definitely seems more along the lines of what he's looking for, though he may have to shop around & find one with music he likes

[@beaarmstrong7617]

She had the best THGS I've ever heard on this show

[@f.b.jeffers0n]

~37:49: I mean, now THAT is a fantastic name for a club! 🤣🤣🤣

[@cartergrimes4464]

Oh so now were dropping podcasts at 5am

[@cartergrimes4464]

I'm just kidding I love you guys

[@yramismynamenowdealwithit]

I get my Gianmarco notifications at 2am my time, every time. The consistency is comforting somehow😅

[@tin1056]

I am from NY, Sectionals come before States and Regionals in HS sports

[@heyoitsollie]

Starting up with muppets joke is brutal and hilarious

[@blu_heron]

Okay, I’m 29 and Muppets from Space was one of my favorite movies as a kid! Solidarity with Russell lol

[@f.b.jeffers0n]

What a hilarious episode! 🤣

[@rapchee]

isn't a near constant congestion a sign of mild allergies?

[@jawwa9911]

Listening to them talk about dance is giving me an aneurism

[@laurenlaker]

Back in my day, way before snot rockets wr only had mucus missiles

[@megankidd4671]

Hey, as a long time equestrian, those beliefs about a broken horse is outdated and being phased out. The basis of horse training is the same as dog training and child rearing, you teach them habits and patterns. Positive Reinforcement is the main thing, but there’s a newer movement of consensual care, which is iffy based on the boundary lines like I think there is a delineation between human and animal compared to anthropomorphizing the animal , but knowing what habits bring out positive responses, and what doesn’t. Forcing an animal to actively do something that they don’t like is deemed as unethical and frowned upon. But teaching the horse to give yes and no responses, so body language that demonstrates they don’t enjoy whatever, vs body language that shows that they do. Examples of this would be having a horse move towards a saddle pad instead of sighing or holding their breath.

[@user-cg9fu8ty7v]

depending on where you're from it's also called soggy biscuit!

[@rockets4kids]

Muppets were definitely a Gen X thing.

[@nataliaalfonso2662]

How can Gianmarco not know that oogie cookie is also called Limp Biscuit and it’s what the band Limp Bizkit is named after ??? lol

[@charaznable1131]

Katherine is right about high schools, I went to a all boys high schools and in college it was so weird, guys would change their whole personality to try get a girl, It would get so depressing....

[@aliciabarrie7229]

My daughter came out to me as a lesbian a few months ago. She mentioned a friend the other day who was a boy. I said your booooyyyyyfrieeennndd (because I'm her mom and I have too). And she said ew no. I said - it's okay, you know I'll still love you even if you're straight ❤❤ 😂😂 We're flipping the script on our parents generation 🎉

[@anemonekilter]

34:15 fully

[@smolapril]

1:11:11 so. veganism all about consent, right? animals can't give consent, but if a human gives consent to consumption of their baby making juice, it technically vegan c-m, right? 🤔

[@nataliaalfonso2662]

Plants can’t give consent. And animals can’t give consent for humans to eat all their plants. Nor can the earth give consent for farming.

[@LunaWitcherArt]

It's sad that I recognized her face, but not her name, so I went on google and I realized that she is filed in my brain as "way too into pretending to be a horse as a kid"
