Pleasant Conversations

Ever feel like you are begrudgingly trying to find joy in your life? You’re not alone. The news, doom scrolling, your nana casually flying a flag promoting a hate group we all thought died out decades ago…it’s a rough world out there. No matter how hard it gets, we all have to find the positivity happening in this hellscape called Earth. Let us do the dirty work to prove that even though we’re all secretly hoping that deadly asteroid arrives sooner rather than later, we can still find our community, gather around the dumpster fire, and have some Pleasant Conversations.

  Episode #50

  There’s Nothing Painful About Silence for Me!

  Sep 24, 202640 min

  Michael starts this week with a quick “Ain’t That Good News” segment about using celebrity for good and a cute construction kitty named Sue! Today’s topic is about the unexplained social rules we observe…well, MOST of us. Michael uses the word “jabbering”—twice. The topic really gets both hosts heated more than Canadian hockey players. We end with the pleasantries of a silent elevator and cool down with Michael's ode to escalators. There are no special rules when joining us around the dumpster fire except the only conversations allowed are pleasant conversations!

  We Forgot Why We Came in Here

  Sep 17, 202642 min

  What resistance theme would your dinner party be? Whilst cutting cheese with a guillotine, our hosts are still trying to beat the heat, and Michael talks about some sad, patriotic art. This week’s topic is introverts vs. extroverts, where Michael rambles, and Jasmine brings us back to center. Our hosts also talk about the pleasant side of forgetfulness and cool down with a discussion about worst impulse purchases. Since you forgot why you came into this room, why not park it on the carpet and join us for some pleasant conversations!

  The 5-0 is Coming for Our Leftovers

  Sep 10, 202628 min

  This week is another shorty. Michael talks about the DC Grand Prix’s failure and Rosie’s return to talk TV. The Wheel of Topics has our hosts talking about art and how to critique your friends. Jasmine brags about not losing socks in either the washer or the dryer, and Michael gushes over the wonders of leftovers. So start your engines, hold onto your socks, heat some leftovers, and prepare to look at some art so you can at least fake your way through some pleasant conversations!

  Episode #4

  Blame the Industrial Revolution

  Sep 3, 202630 minS2

  This week is short, but sweet, and Michael may have come up with an app that you better not steal! Partnerships, however, may inquire within. Our hosts speak on confidence and delusions (someone give Michael uppies onto his soapbox), discuss how missing an exit can lead to other opportunities and another copyright moment brought to you by Michael, and then cool down with some stories of karma. Today's episode will fly by faster than that last exit for 200 miles, so enjoy it while you can! Maybe you'll meet your soulmate with similar dietary restrictions at that shady diner in the middle of nowhere and have some pleasant conversations.

  Episode #46

  A Smattering of Applause (Take 2)

  Aug 27, 202642 min

  ***The first drop had some tech issues, which are hopefully corrected with this new upload*** This week, Michael continues his D23 updates (old news, we know) and talks MCU casting. He and Jasmine talk more about the House of Mouse and capitalism. Michael shows off his new sound effect for his week’s topic, which can wait until later (heh). They then discuss the failures of technology that could possibly be solved with props. The Cool Down asks “is it just me?” when it comes to hunger pangs. So save your pennies for the Mouse, make sure your pie chart cools completely on the window sill before cutting, close the dang refrigerator door and have some pleasant conversations!
