    <description>This is a funny, sweet, sad storytelling podcast where a genius, a storyteller, and a buffoon attempt to reconcile their tastes and aspirations with the fact that, for now, and for reasons, they live as they do. 
The world is a puzzle that can be solved, but you have to work at it. It’s a grind. Talking the things that annoy, amuse, confuse, and bedazzle you through is part of the alchemy that spins your lead into gold. This is us trying to do that. Except, at the end of the day, that’s all bullshit. And you can’t just hope that it will work out. You have to push and push and push, except when you don’t. And that’s when you have to just shrug it off and believe that it will probably be ok.

  <description>This episode was recorded on July 28, 2020.
Nkenge leads us in a conversation about the the things you wish you'd have known as you made your way into adulthood. And about the idea that Adulthood always seems so far away. What is adulthood anyway?  And what does it have to do with work? And why was being a teenager so rad?
Meanwhile:
Nick thinks you should consider the parasitic nature of your relationship with Amazon.
Gabe wants you to know that there is such a thing as a magic racoon that has shapeshifting powers centered in its giant balls
Nkenge is tricked into buying a $9 can of beer, and Gabe and Nick pretend that they've never spent as much, but admit they have, and probably more. 
All this, and more.
