The 420 Episode

It's 420 twice a day every day, but here we celebrated with what we call salad, mixing the last bits of our stash to make one unique salad to smoke and then reminisce.
 
From old-school cartoons to a wild encounter with THCP, this episode is like a trip down memory lane on a sugar high, sprinkled with laughs. We reminisce about PBS, Nickelodeon, and Sesame Street, then dive into the crazy story of a THC-infused weekend gone wrong.
Get ready for 48 hours of unexpected highs, including frantic trips to the bathroom, robot-like walks, and trippy dreams. Warning: you might think twice before trying anything labeled THCP after this wild ride! I couldn't feel my limbs so I am here to warn you!
But the fun doesn't stop there. We also chat about the good old days of being unsupervised kids, teenage adventures with acid (not our adventures), and the everyday chaos of mom life. We even debate life choices made under the influence, sharing personal stories and lots of laughs.
Then we switch gears to talk movies, from classics like 'Pride and Prejudice' to epic tales like 'Troy'. We all agree that movies have a way of tugging at our heartstrings and shaping our views, leading to some lively debates. And we don't shy away from discussing sensitive topics, diving into our concerns about the content we consume. These detours into introspection make this episode a must-listen.
So buckle up for a rollercoaster of laughter, nostalgia, and deep thoughts. With funny stories, movie chats, and reflections on life's quirks, this episode is a wild journey you won't want to miss!

Influence, Privacy, and Real Life Relationships

Get ready for some juicy debates about the Kardashians – you know, love 'em or hate 'em, they're everywhere. Plus, we've got this awesome story about a beauty student who's using social media to kickstart her business. It's all about how our online lives affect our real-world selves.
Then, we're delving into the messy world of online relationships versus offline ones. Trust us, it gets deep. We'll even share some personal stories about childhood bullying and how it shapes us today; and how people like to be passive aggressive with posts - but I want you to be aggressive. Tag me. Oh, is that too direct?
I never understand when people have some thing they wanna say, or something they believe in, but they won't stand by it. I'm built different. If I'm gonna  be petty, it's gonna be direct. These same people making videos or talking shit about me have my number, use it babe, or tag me. It's just giving 'womb womb' energy.
It's not all serious stuff! We're also keeping things light with a few laughs about the ridiculousness of social media pressures and the funny side of online drama.
And let's not forget about the big questions – like, how real is our online persona, really? We're tackling the authenticity debate and even chatting about blocking people online when things get heated.
By the end of it all, we're promising to lay off the Kardashian talk for a bit and look towards a more authentic, considerate digital future. So, if you're up for some thought-provoking conversation mixed with a few laughs, tune in and join the ride!

Finding Purpose

So this episode is about Life Purpose, and how an industry podcast said employers MUST provide Gen Z with a purpose or they won't work for you... and I will not be providing purpose. Here's what AI thinks this episode is about:
So, picture this: we're diving deep into the behind-the-scenes of running a hair salon. We're not just talking about the basics here, but getting into all the juicy details, sharing insider stories and some real eye-opening industry insights.
But hey, it's not all serious business. We're also gonna take a moment to poke some fun at society's expectation that every workplace should be the center of our universe, especially when it comes to keeping Gen Z employees happy. Spoiler alert: it's not all about work!
And yeah, we'll sprinkle in some wisdom from cool folks like Simon Sinek, mixing it up with beach vibes, artsy stuff, and maybe even a dab of politics. But don't worry, we're keeping it chill and open-minded, because healthy debate is where it's at.
Wrapping it up, we'll talk about how society's pressure can sometimes make us lose sight of what really matters, swapping real purpose for something fake. It's a chat that'll make you think, challenge your views, and hopefully leave you feeling inspired to find your own path to fulfillment – whether it's in your job or just life in general.

California, Kidnapping, and Plant Medicine

Get ready to plunge into the multi-dimensional world of 'coolness,' psychedelics, and a shocking incident that terrorized a town. Welcome to an episode brimming with laughter, profound wisdom, and unexpected perspectives. This is the episode before I head to Tulum on a healing retreat, where I also documented my journey; but this one is to see if I change at all. Physically, tonally, or on the outside that is noticeable to anyone.
I have been on a mental health journey since 2020 doing IFS, EMDR, Psilocybin trials (micro and macro) and i have gotten to a place where I want to try more holistic and powerful healing so I signed up for a week in Tulum to be shot through the healing cannon as I call it 
Moving away from the mainstream, we explore the disputed realm of plant medicines, culminating in a detailed discussion about psychedelics. Through captivating narratives, we illuminate the evolving viewpoints surrounding these natural yet potent medicines and how the research is piling up for mental health and natural medicines.
Our narratives take you on a winding journey that includes talks about the unease of being in the public eye, the adrenaline rush of suspenseful films, amidst other offbeat topics. Amidst the humor and depth, expect an uncensored exploration of divergent subjects.
In a significant tonal shift, we narrate a solemn yet horrifying incident—the notorious Chowchilla Kidnapping. We relive the truly chilling ordeal of a school bus full of children buried alive in a moving trailer, a crime that has had a lasting impact on the victims and the society . We closely examine the emotional aftermath and the existent societal ignorance towards emotional trauma.
