Man, next-level random. mind-fuckers n' amazing flavor combos. We start off vibing about meat sticks and mustard, no Dijon, or spicy brown? Then spiralling into this wild idea about what Jesus would be like in the modern world. Think of, Cheechified robes, Android phones, and definitely driving a beat-up Corolla. Trust us, when we say this most realistic depiction of modern day Jesus. Oh, and did we mention the Louis? Just your friendly pug reminder.

Then we hit warp speed into political conspiracies of course. Voting weirdness into the direction of French silk pie? It's like politics meets dessert, meets existential crisis! All rolled into one cosmic joint ready to be smoked, baby. Jive till you groove, light up, and let the chaos wash over you. Can't stress it, to say you’re gonna want to be here for the vibes. Peace n' nostalgia meets politics, oh yeah!

I found myself exploring the meditative world, by going to a Meet-up. With chairs outnumbering attendees. the scene was set for a session that would be anything but typical; Portuguese in this case. I counted chairs, and waited for the meditation to begin. I was amazed by the tranquility of the setting. Even the dog attending took to meditation, curling up for a cozy nap. Awesome experience that wasn't just about silence or the meditation practice itself. Rather about the unexpected joys and communal quirks. Making it memorable, and so worthwhile you want to do it again.

Diving deeper, we expand into cultural insights. Like the contrast between European land ownership norms. Also, with Native American communal land practices. Being blown away by the culture differences. We spice things up with some tea aboutReese Witherspoon's business savvy. And our personal movie favorites of course. Mixing meditation, and blending in pop culture with a cherry on top. This blend of meditation misadventures and cultural mind fucks offers a unique twist. On finding peace in modern bullshit... I mean media. Showcasing comedy woven through our attempts to connect, reflect and relax. Namastay, shalom, and may peace be with you.

In this episode Karissa and I take a nostalgic trip back to the late 2000s and early 2010s. Reminiscing about the music and culture that defined our younger years. We kicked things off, with a lively discussion about the iconic party vibes of LMFAO. Also, other artist's like Pitbull and Miley Cyrus. Who shaped the soundtrack of our high school days. We got the vibes, memories, and connecting these tunes to our coming-of-age experiences.

We also delved into how these musical icons have evolved over the years. Reflecting on how the anthems of our youth. Which influenced our tastes, and perceptions of music today. Also, we explored the broader impact of these artists. On our personal lives, and cultural trends we gravitated towards. Making this the perfect blend of personal reflection. Bringing pop culture critique from the 2010s. Tune in and insert the CD, hear the humor, and jam of LMFAO. Cause it's all about the music that moved us to say 'it's a party in the U.S.A".
