Back to School and Basket Cases

Send a message to the pod!

We catch up on the chaos of a new kindergarten routine, a sweaty late-night recording, and a behind-the-scenes Sonic shoot that proves memorising lines is harder than it looks. Then we shift into internet misinformation, messy AI labels, and two listener questions where we get serious about change, mental health, and boundaries. 

Join us as we get into:
• adjusting to real school routines and the stress of new systems 
• travelling for a Sonic fall campaign and navigating on-set nerves 
• fact-checking dry shampoo fear, benzene headlines and how misinformation spreads 
• how AI search crawlers miss reliable sources and why “AI generated” labels confuse people 
• the Wicker trailer discourse, memes and why whimsy feels rare 
• Word of the Week: Muckrake
• college transition advice, making friends by showing up and using campus resources 
• family gossip dynamics, emotional labour and opting out of holidays without guilt
