    007 Soul Away with Us!

    ... to the land of Disney & Pixar’s Soul! This episode, Patrick and Becky are joined by their friend and fellow podcaster, Brendan Black, from Talk Ag to Me, as they dive into the world of the movie, Soul! Silly and mundane, and also personal and meaningful, is this name of the game this episode as they explore the beautiful, moving, and thought provoking movie about what it means to live, your purpose, and your spark. With Brendan working towards becoming a teacher, the trio also discusses what has made a good teacher to them over the years, and share stories of some of the teachers that have had the most impact in their lives.

    006 The Long Promised Stardew Episode

    The long promised Stardew episode! In this episode, Patrick and Becky are joined by their friend from Scotland, Jonathan as they talk all things games from one of their current favorites favourites, Stardew Valley, to their first games, and going down nostalgia lane as they reminisce on some of their favourites throughout the years. They also talk cars, the Olympics, and a bit about travelling when this was all still normal as this episode was actually recorded pre-pandemic! So if you’d like, hop on in and travel back in time with us to February 2020 when we didn’t know how much things were just about to change. ——————— Can you guess who Patrick, Becky, and Jonathan married in Stardew Valley?

  3. 005 ‘Tis the Hallmark Season

    005 ‘Tis the Hallmark Season

    It’s that time of year again - it’s the Silly Mundane Things holiday episode! Or at least Patrick and Becky attempt a holiday themed episode just in time for the days after the new year ha ha. They get caught up talking the new Taylor albums, folklore and evermore, although ‘tis the season right? So maybe it is holiday themed! They talk holiday movies from classics like It’s a Wonderful Life, Elf (and a digression into Will Ferrell), to Hallmark movies. And they end on a discussion of the show, One Night Only: The Best of Broadway, and a special end discussion featuring a Christmas commercial which may or may not make Patrick cry.  We created a discord server if you’d like to come join! https://discord.gg/f5YJftk Or feel free to say hi on any of our socials!  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sillymundanethings/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/MundaneSilly  Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/SillyMundaneThings/ ——-  Links:  Taylor’s albums  folklore: https://open.spotify.com/album/2fenSS68JI1h4Fo296JfGr?si=Tw_7sHCzQ_CIdjW4Y4Y0YQ  evermore: https://open.spotify.com/album/2Xoteh7uEpea4TohMxjtaq?si=wsgsLYI3TmOIiROYRzE2aA  You Learn from the Jagged Little Pill musical (Broadway version of the song by Alanis Morissette): https://open.spotify.com/track/30redRhObgpu3z7kCs2aBf?si=IMaLQbT-QVKYeSAQMuF5_w  Christmas song recommendation this year Peace on Earth by The National Parks: https://open.spotify.com/track/1B4B033tgLq9ifm2st6djz?si=MBrK3IctS2ixSkxhLQotdQ  The National Parks (non-Christmas) song recommendation The Future: https://open.spotify.com/track/1W4bAg8vveIaJpu5sfQyzv?si=lbxhKYLQTzK75M6nb8OOHQ  Coca-Cola Christmas Ad: https://youtu.be/yg4Mq5EAEzw  ———  ⁃ We had no reviews at the time of recording but found out we just got our first one! Thank you so much to our first reviewer!! Show note corrections:  We described Taylor’s song champagne as maybe fun in our confusion of only having only listened for a day at that time. It is most definitely not so much a fun song as captivatingly devastating!  The band Taylor collaborated with was The Chicks (they’re no longer known as the Dixie Chicks)  Chicago is the longest running American musical, and second longest overall (not the longest overall)  Jagged Little Pill was released 25 years ago  Swiss Chalet is indeed Canadian!

  4. Bonus 01 - Hot Bread (Time) Machine

    Bonus 01 - Hot Bread (Time) Machine

    Patrick and Becky travel back in time to April 2020. This episode was recorded a while ago and we weren’t sure what to do with it - was it too serious, not serious enough. We wanted to try to bring some lightness to difficult times but it was also really important for us to be thoughtful to how everyone was feeling. We’re not sure if we got it right but relistening to it, and with a bit more time and space, we felt there was enough worth releasing. So we thought with 2020 coming to a close, we’d release this as a bonus episode and a little time capsule of earlier this year. We mostly try to find some of the lightness we could at the time and stay out of anything too heavy but if this is not the episode for you we definitely understand that and feel free to skip this one. If you want to stay, we’re happy to have you and please enjoy past Patrick and Becky as we attempt to record back in April! So if you want, come listen as we talk about a Justin Trudeau song, a Disney Sing-Along, and some of the ways people found humour, joy, a way to make things work, and bring help and hope to others during these times, and hopefully some laughs along the way.

    004 A Tale of Two Watsons

    A new season, a new title style, and a new year! Well technically the same year still... right? Welcome to the first episode of Season 2, also known as Episode 4 (not confusing at all right?)! Patrick and Becky catch up and update each other and the show on their respective 2020s while trying to keep things light, one might say silly and mundane. Patrick discusses some of his positives this year throughout it all - new job, new house! Becky finds help, comfort, and meaning in Animal Crossing, and the show, Love Island. Who knew islands would be so comforting! Patrick also learns about the greatness that is the narrator Matthew Hoffman and Caesar’s Palace! What were some of the things that made your year maybe just a little bit better? (Speaking of which, is anyone else excited for Evermore! We are excited to be officially starting Season 2 on the same day as the release! We’d understand if you need to listen to Evermore first, and maybe again, and again.)  We created a discord server if you’d like to come join! https://discord.gg/f5YJftk  Or feel free to say hi on any of our socials!  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sillymundanethings/  Twitter: https://twitter.com/MundaneSilly  Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/SillyMundaneThings/  —————  Show note correction: for Love Island, recouplings happen every few days usually not every few weeks. It’s obviously very important we get this information correct!
