Mike and Vonia Can't Not Mike and Vonia Can't Not

Vonia talks through some mic and computer issues as she nears time to record new episodes for another podcast she's been hired to be on! Mike recounts a couple of random stories from the past week, they are both excited for a new recap podcast a friend is doing, then it's a movie Vonia wasn't wild about, and some existential dread. They have a conversation about nostalgia and how it effects the things we hold on to and the things we throw out, and share some plans for the upcoming week. Happy Pride! 

Vonia's kids have started a new summer program, and Mike has quite a few things to talk about, mostly good, some frustrating. Then it's a new limited series, an animated film that brought Mike to tears, a recurring theme of acknowledging ones self, trouble on the playground, some talk about The Tonys, adventures in sushi, and a text message. 

Mike has continued to have quite the time of it, and Vonia and the family went camping! Vonia is still singing the praises of a returned comedy series, as well as a returning fantasy/drama series in it's last season, and Mike finished a limited series that he thinks is worth checking out. Then it's a discussion of theatre prices, working through the summer, and a few things that Mike actually got done. 
Next week, The Tonys!!

Vonia has had a lot going on between the school musical and the school year ending, and Mike has had a lot going on... in less wonderful ways. But they still have theatre and television to bring them joy! From a (sort of) one woman show, to a new play on Broadway, and two very different TV programs. Then a discussion of motivation versus self flagellation and some worries about the world right now, final thoughts on this season of So You Think You Can Dance, and plans for the coming week. We're going to be ok...

First off, Mike explains why they've been off for a couple of weeks, and it's not pretty. Thankfully, Vonia has a few stories of joy to help make up for it. Then there's a whole lot to dig. Between books, theatre, music, and television, Mike and Vonia share what's getting them through these often tough times. Mike has a few thoughts on some art he thinks could have been better, and they both have thoughts on the last few episodes of SYTYCD. It'll all be fine...

Mike has a lot to talk about with his family having just been in town. Then it's a discussion of aging, Vonia's family's experience during the Armenian Genocide, some television programs Vonia and Mike have already mentioned here, but deserve repeating, a conversation about compromise, and a very silly experience jogging. Vonia and Mike become a little more critical in their examination of So You Think You Can Dance, while trying to remain positive. Finally, it's an exciting upcoming event, a song Mike didn't know, and a touch of trivia. Let's all carry each other...
