In our season finale episode, we do a retrospective on our time making the podcast. Why did we do this to ourselves? What would drive two people to make a podcast? Aren't there enough podcasts with two guys with microphones? We ask these very important questions.

Episode 23 | Why Parent Parent
In this episode we're talking about sandwiches ... sort of! We're the sandwich generation and Jed and I are open face sandwiches. We're experiencing the phenomenon of parenting our parents. What happens when your parents start to need your help? What happens when you need to teach them lessons about the world? What happens when you disagree with how they were raised? These are the questions we ask in this episode.

Episode 22 | Why Create
In this episode we talk about why the heck we decide to make stuff up. Why do we create? Why do we take ideas from our brains and express them through song, dance, theater, meme? There are a million things we could do with our time and yet we decide to do this. And then make a podcast episode about it.
