  • Pass the dutchie: substance use

  • Walk like a man: bro code
    Jul 2 2025

    In this episode we talk 'bro code,' exploring its implications on masculinity, peer pressure, and societal expectations. Sev reveals the dual nature of bro code (who knew??), with both positive and negative connotations, and shares how it has evolved over time. Our conversation highlights the pressures faced by young men today - something experienced more by young women in the age of the X - the importance of mental health, and the need for a more support and respect for each other, regardless of gender (or age!).

  • We built this city: music
    Jun 3 2025

    What's on your favourites playlist? Is it the same as what was on your mixed tape in 1985? In this episode, we explore the evolution of music preferences from teenage years to adulthood, discussing how personal tastes are shaped by peer influence, parental guidance, and the changing landscape of music consumption. We talk lyrics versus beats, the role of streaming services in discovering new music, and generational differences (and similarities) in music appreciation - spoiler alert, we like a lot of the same songs and they're not all "vintage!" We also talk controversial artists, artists we love (and don't), gross lyrics, and the subjective nature of music. We come from a long line of (sometimes questionable) music lovers and we've exploded our playlist to prove it. Start listening here and please enjoy responsibly! Some of those lyrics are, um, NSFW!
