    Ep #19: Gen Z slang quiz | Chat are we cooked

    [Hey its me Michael, the editor. I thought I uploaded this in December. I didn't. So I'm posting it now. Thank you 3 sorry for delay, our community is still small so please share the show with friends. Love u] Are the Kids Cooked? In this episode of The Break Room, Nick, Corey, and Zach put their age, sanity, and cultural relevance to the test by taking a Gen Z and Gen Alpha slang quiz created by everyone’s favorite personal assistant, ChadGPT. From “skull” and “caught in 4K” to “delulu is the solulu,” “NPC behavior,” and “bro thought he cooked,” the guys attempt to decode the ever-evolving language of the internet, with mixed results. Along the way, they debate whether the kids are actually cooked, if aura can be farmed, why having “motion” is suddenly a compliment, and whether growing up with AI is fundamentally changing how humans think. Expect: Plenty of wrong answers Existential dread about the future Millennials realizing they are aging in real time Strong opinions on brain rot, swag, and TikTok culture So the big question remains: are the kids alright, or is this the beginning of the end? Grab a seat in The Break Room and find out. Drop a comment with your favorite slang term, or let us know how cooked we are 💀 ong fr  🫵🤣 ...

    Ep #18: Why other countries are better than America

    What does the U.S. get wrong that other countries do better? In this Break Room episode, Nick Loudon, Zach Stevens, and Corey Haines take a step away from work and dig into a lively, opinionated conversation about everyday systems the United States could improve — based on firsthand experiences abroad. From public transportation and food quality to the metric system, cigarette packaging, and the eternal debate over roundabouts vs. stop signs, this episode is equal parts thoughtful, funny, and unfiltered. It’s not about bashing the U.S. — it’s about noticing what works elsewhere and asking why we haven’t adopted it yet. Topics discussed include: Why public transportation abroad feels faster, cleaner, and more reliableThe difference between U.S. and European food ingredientsBread, pasta, dairy, and why they hit differently outside the U.S.The case for switching to the metric systemGraphic cigarette packaging and whether it actually worksRoundabouts vs. stop signs (and why this gets surprisingly heated)Trains, traffic, and getting to the airport on time This episode is a relaxed, off-the-cuff discussion with strong opinions, jokes, and real-world observations — perfect if you enjoy long-form conversations that feel like hanging out with friends.

    Ep #17: Zodiac signs and horoscopes are nonsense

    Welcome back to The Break Room, where absolutely nothing important happens — and today is no exception. In this episode, Nick, Corey, and Zach embark on a deeply “scientific” mission: discovering Conversion Factory’s collective zodiac sign using a BuzzFeed quiz, the most trusted source of universal truth. Along the way, the guys ruthlessly deconstruct the logic (or lack thereof) behind zodiac signs, horoscopes, and the painfully confident people who insist they can read your soul based on the month you were born. Spoiler: zodiac signs are dumb, astrology isn’t real, and the only thing the stars are influencing is how hard we're rolling our eyes. In this episode: -The team takes a “What Zodiac Sign Are You?” quiz as a business — because why not-Heated debates about cats, squares, Legos, Hogwarts houses, and other extremely scientific criteria-A BuzzFeed result so vague it narrowed 12 signs down to… 3-Live reading of a hilariously generic horoscope (“You may feel inspired to write today.” Wow, thanks.)-Zach recounts the iconic moment he ruined an astrology girl’s day by telling her the truth-Corey reveals his favorite tactic: agree with people about their zodiac guesses, then immediately tell them they’re wrong-Reflecting on why strangers feel entitled to assign you a personality based on what month your mom went into labor-If you've ever been asked “What’s your sign?” and immediately knew the conversation was doomed, this episode is for you. ...

    Ep #16: Zach could beat a Rhinoceros in a fist fight

    In this episode of The Break Room, Nick, Corey, and Zach dive into one of their most chaotic debates yet: ranking wild animals on a tier list based on who would win in a bare-knuckle fight.  From ostriches and king cobras to grizzly bears, rhinos, and great white sharks, the trio imagines brutal showdowns in a 50x50 concrete cell—clothed only in a wristwatch for good measure.  Expect heated arguments over chokeholds, death rolls, and whether a human could outsmart a gorilla (spoiler: Zach thinks so).  Their overconfidence and questionable strategies lead to plenty of laughs and zero mercy for underdogs like bunnies and penguins. Tune in for the full tier list reveal and decide for yourself: could you take a kangaroo?
