    91 Is Chivalry Dead and WTF does it mean?

    We take a trip down memory lane, filled with humour and personal stories, to question whether chivalry is truly dead or if its spirit still flickers in our modern relationships. From opening doors to shared responsibilities at home, we explore how traditional notions have evolved, and whether they still hold relevance in today's romantic and professional scenes. Relationships aren't just about the grand gestures; they're built on mutual appreciation and recognizing those quirky "beige flags" that make them unique. -------- EPISODE CHAPTERS --------- (0:00:09) - The Decline of Chivalry and Courtesy (0:15:42) - Mutual Appreciation in Relationships (0:32:02) - Navigating Red and Beige Flags (0:48:36) - The Value of Hard Work (0:53:23) - The Decline of Common Courtesy (1:07:03) - Navigating Honest Communication and Responsibilities (1:20:11) - Investing in Vehicle Maintenance for Work

    87 Deciphering the Language of the Youth

    Growing up, we all had our secret codes—words and phrases that made us feel part of something exclusive. As millennials, we remember the thrill of using slang that baffled adults, but now we find ourselves equally puzzled by the creative lexicon of Gen Z. It's a funny turn of events as we grapple with everything from "bougie" to "bussin'," and even attempt to keep up with the latest lingo that seems to pop up overnight thanks to the ever-evolving world of digital communication. Join us for a humorous exploration as we reminisce about the slang from our own school days, while also trying to decipher the contemporary expressions dominating today's cultural scene. Whether it's the nostalgic echo of saying "WTF" out loud or the new-age confidence encapsulated in "based," we reflect on how language mirrors our shifting identities. From emojis turning into modern hieroglyphics to brainstorming our own twist with terms like "basted," we share a lighthearted look at how the words we choose convey more than just definitions—they reveal our cultural zeitgeist. Throughout our conversation, we can't help but chuckle at the absurdity and creativity embedded in slang, whether it's the transformation of "simp" or the playful allure of being "lit." As we navigate the amusing landscape of generational lingo, we also touch on the enduring appeal of terms like "drip" and "fam," highlighting how some expressions manage to transcend age and time. So, tune in for a trip through language that promises not just laughs but insights into how we connect with each other across generations.

    85 From Lawns to Normandy and The Saddledome

    Imagine waking up to find a stranger starfished on your lawn—drunk. That's how our latest adventure begins, unfolding through an unexpected morning that feels straight out of a sitcom. Chantel was thrilled to fill out a witness report thanks to her new obsession with police bodycam videos on YouTube. Jake fills us in on his journey across the Atlantic to the captivating landscapes of Normandy for the 80th D-Day anniversary. Here, among world leaders and intricate security, he found himself mesmerized by the haunting beauty all around. He shares about the process of capturing these poignant moments and the charming yet chaotic allure of French countryside life, from e-bike rides through quaint villages to the bustling streets of Paris. Back in the comforts of home, the year continued with personal growth and creativity through a basement transformation project, the farewell Sum 41 concert, and a playful murder mystery night. Each chapter is filled with laughter, sentiment, and the joy of shared experiences, from exploring the Taboo Show's eccentric offerings to reliving youthful memories through music. Through it all, we reflect on the importance of perseverance and the rewarding nature of these shared adventures, promising more stories and laughter in the episodes to come.
