  1. We're finally back after four months, and we've got stories to tell.

    SEP 16

    We're finally back after four months, and we've got stories to tell.

    Send us a text Four months is a long time to be away, but sometimes life throws curveballs that even the most prepared people can't dodge. Welcome back to the chaos as Jesse James and Dee Dee finally return to the Mature Mischief Podcast after an unplanned hiatus that taught them both valuable lessons about adulting, priorities, and self-discovery. The universe hasn't been kind—Jesse lost his car, moved apartments, and faced the sobering reality of adult responsibilities that don't fit neatly into anyone's budget. But amid these challenges came unexpected moments of clarity. Walking home one night (and screaming at a mailbox he mistook for La Chupacabra), Jesse confronted truths about his physical health and priorities that had been easy to ignore from behind a steering wheel. This raw, unfiltered conversation doesn't shy away from difficult topics. The hosts dive deep into body image issues, the complexities of modern relationships, and why so many people are operating on emotional autopilot. Jesse candidly acknowledges his own contradictions in how he approaches connections, while Dee Dee shares exciting news about potentially learning to tattoo—proving that even in challenging times, new opportunities emerge. What makes this return episode special isn't just the catchup on missed time, but the reminder of why this podcast resonates with so many. There's something therapeutic about listening to two friends navigate life's messiness with humor, honesty, and zero pretense. They deliberately avoid current political discussions, choosing instead to create content that offers listeners a break from the divisiveness dominating other platforms. As they wrap up with plans for new projects and a return to regular scheduling, the message is clear: they're back, they're still figuring it out like the rest of us, and they're ready to bring more mature mischief to your earbuds.

  2. Men Don't Know What Women Want

    Men Don't Know What Women Want

    Send us a text Ever wondered why so many relationships struggle with intimacy issues? This episode dives deep into the fascinating disconnect between what men think women want versus what women actually crave in relationships.  We explore the surprising biological differences at play—women produce oxytocin during intimate moments, creating powerful emotional bonds, while men process vasopressin differently. This chemical distinction explains why women consistently seek connection before physical satisfaction, while men often focus primarily on physical gratification. One eye-opening revelation: many men invest more energy pleasing their bosses than learning their partners' bodies and communication styles. The conversation takes unexpected turns as we discuss how social judgment affects female sexuality. Women face impossible standards—labeled as "prudes" or "whores" regardless of their choices—while simultaneously navigating partners who don't understand their needs. We share candid stories about relationships where men took time to learn women's bodies and communication styles, resulting in profoundly different outcomes from relationships focused solely on physical connection. Perhaps most provocative is our examination of how relationship dynamics are shifting. Many women have begun approaching relationships with traditionally masculine detachment when their emotional needs go unmet, creating an unsatisfying cycle where neither partner receives what they truly desire. Whether you're struggling with connection in your relationship or simply curious about the psychology of intimacy, this episode offers valuable insights into creating meaningful connection beyond the bedroom.

  3. It's never too late to become who you were meant to be.

    It's never too late to become who you were meant to be.

    Send us a text Have you ever looked in the mirror and thought, "Did I miss my chance?" That nagging question about whether it's too late to pursue dreams, learn new skills, or reinvent yourself is exactly what Jesse and DeeDee tackle in this deeply personal episode. Jesse opens up about wanting to learn sewing at 37, pursue drag performance, and create his own clothing—all while battling the voice in his head saying, "You're too old" and "It's too late." This vulnerability sparks a rich conversation about why we place artificial timelines on our talents and passions. The hosts explore how financial constraints, body image issues, and long-standing trauma from childhood criticism can build invisible walls between us and the lives we want to live. "I'm tired of living in the what-ifs," Jesse confesses, touching on a sentiment that resonates across generations. Whether it's the fear of looking foolish as a beginner or worrying about health limitations, these concerns keep countless people from trying. DeeDee shares her journey with body acceptance, revealing how regaining confidence happens when you start honoring your body rather than criticizing it. The conversation takes a fascinating spiritual turn when discussing how the universe seems to push us in directions we resist. Is following your destined path more important than exercising free will? As Jesse colorfully puts it, sometimes you need the universe to "hop off" and let you chart your course. This tension between destiny and choice speaks to anyone who's felt torn between what they feel they "should" do and what their heart truly desires. What dreams have you put on the back burner? What would you pursue if you believed it wasn't too late? Listen to this episode, then take that first step toward becoming who you've always wanted to be—because it's never too late to start.

    The Graveyard of Dead Hobbies

    Send us a text Have you ever abandoned a hobby after someone told you weren't good enough? Or perhaps you've got a collection of half-started projects gathering dust in your metaphorical creative graveyard? You're definitely not alone. Jesse opens up about a formative experience when his guitar teacher crushed his spirit by telling him to "never pick up the guitar again," creating a pattern of creative self-doubt that would follow him for years. This vulnerability sets the stage for an honest conversation about creative resilience and the journey back to creative confidence. Meanwhile, DeeDee shares her natural adaptability with limited resources, demonstrating how creativity often flourishes within constraints rather than unlimited options. The conversation delves deep into Jesse's current passion project – learning to sew and create custom clothing. Starting with simple decorative pillows and gradually advancing toward more complex garments, his methodical approach demonstrates how breaking down creative skills into manageable steps can help overcome intimidation. The hosts explore the practical challenges of dedication to craft – from finding space free of pet hair to understanding fabric properties and mastering techniques through repetition. What makes this episode particularly resonant is the exploration of how abandoned hobbies can be resurrected and potentially transformed into business opportunities. Jesse shares his vision for a custom clothing business, while DeeDee reveals how skills learned for costume-making projects unexpectedly equipped her with resin-casting abilities that opened new creative doors. Whether you're a dabbler in multiple creative pursuits or someone still haunted by discouraging voices from your past, this conversation offers both practical advice and emotional reassurance. What forgotten talents are waiting in your creative graveyard? It might be time for a resurrection. Platforms  Breather break

    Finding Your Youth in Middle Age - Secrets from Two Kids at Heart

    Send us a text Ever wondered why some people seem to age backward while others look stressed beyond their years? In this candid conversation, Jesse James and DeeDee explore the fascinating timeline of aging and how our perspectives shift with each decade. Fresh off a week-long mental health break, the hosts dive into what it means to approach milestone birthdays like 40 and 50. Jesse shares his philosophy of "fit in my 20s, fat in my 30s, looking good in my 40s," sparking a deeper discussion about setting meaningful goals for different life stages. They don't shy away from the reality of unexpected health changes either – as Jesse colorfully puts it, "They said things were going to change. I expected small shifts, but m**********r gave me an avalanche." The conversation takes an unexpected turn as they examine workplace dynamics across generations. Drawing from their management experience, they challenge stereotypes about "lazy" young workers, instead finding that many young employees show remarkable dedication when supported properly. This leads to practical insights about mentorship, accessibility as a manager, and creating opportunities that work with school schedules. Most compelling is their observation that younger generations often appear older while older people work to maintain their inner youth. This paradox reflects economic pressures forcing Gen Z to mature quickly, while millennials and older generations tap into playfulness to stay vibrant. As the hosts suggest, perhaps the secret to aging gracefully isn't fighting the process but embracing a childlike curiosity regardless of your birth year. What goals have you set for different decades of your life? Join the conversation and share what you're working toward at your current age – just don't tell us you're planning to check out at 30!

    Polyamory 101: Navigating Multiple Relationships with Honesty and Heart

    Send us a text Curious about polyamory but don't know where to start? This eye-opening episode breaks down the realities of loving multiple people simultaneously with consent, respect, and clear boundaries.  Daddy J and Delicious D demystify the often misunderstood world of polyamorous relationships, throuples, and open partnerships. They explain the crucial concept of relationship hierarchies—how primary partners (often spouses) and secondary partners (boyfriends/girlfriends) create a structured framework that allows love to flourish in multiple directions without chaos. "Communication is motherfucking key," emerges as the episode's central theme. The hosts explore how honest conversations about expectations, boundaries, and needs create the foundation for healthy non-monogamous relationships. They share personal experiences that highlight both the joys and challenges of poly dynamics, including how to balance time between partners, navigate financial independence, and ensure everyone feels valued. The conversation draws fascinating parallels between friendship dynamics and polyamory—just as we don't get jealous when our friends have other friends, poly relationships recognize that different partners can fulfill different emotional and physical needs. The hosts also tackle common misconceptions, addressing the "I'm too possessive" response many have when first learning about polyamory. Whether you're actively polyamorous, considering opening your relationship, or simply curious about relationship structures beyond traditional monogamy, this episode offers valuable insights about love, respect, and the beautiful complexity of human connections.

    Fatty Livers and Fitness Myths: A Brutally Honest Health Chat

    Send us a text Your body is constantly communicating with you, but are you really listening? In this raw and unfiltered conversation, Jesse James and DeeDee dive deep into the often-overlooked importance of body awareness and how understanding your body's signals can make all the difference in your health journey. The duo confronts the uncomfortable truth that most of us ignore our bodies until something goes wrong. They share personal health struggles with candid honesty – from Jesse's pancreas issues and fatty liver to DeeDee's gallbladder surgery at only 20 years old. Through personal stories and observations, they challenge common misconceptions about health, particularly the medical establishment's tendency to blame everything on weight without proper investigation. Beyond personal experiences, Jesse brings surprising insight into balanced fitness approaches, criticizing the toxic weightlifting culture that prioritizes aesthetics over functionality. Drawing from experiences training athletes and understanding physiology, they explain why cardio matters just as much as strength, flexibility trumps pure muscle mass, and how this balance affects everything (yes, even bedroom performance). The conversation takes several fascinating turns – examining how martial artists approach nutrition, why professional wrestlers maintain impressive cardio despite their size, and the surprising benefits of water-based exercise for runners. They don't shy away from addressing healthcare affordability frustrations and the absurdity of a system that prioritizes profit over wellness. Whether you're reassessing your fitness routine, dealing with chronic health issues, or simply wanting to better understand your body's signals, this episode offers practical wisdom wrapped in genuine conversation.

    When Life Kicks You in the Dick, Keep Fighting

    Send us a text Sometimes a podcast that's meant to be about shenanigans takes a sharp turn into raw, vulnerable territory. That's exactly what happened in this episode of Mature Mischief, where what began as our usual Saturday banter quickly transformed into an unfiltered look at the financial breaking points so many adults are facing right now. Jesse opens up about the very real threat of car repossession, mounting debt, and the crushing weight of continuously falling behind with no safety net. "I'm white-knuckling a lot of things," he admits, sharing the emotional toll of watching opportunities slip away while financial pressures mount. This isn't just Jesse's story – it's the reality for countless listeners who are silently fighting the same battles against an unforgiving economy where $40 buys just four items at the grocery store. The conversation delves deep into the painful lessons that come with adulting: learning who truly belongs in your inner circle, the necessity of making decisions without seeking others' approval, and finding the strength to keep going when everything seems to be falling apart. DD provides grounding wisdom throughout, reminding us that "it's not about the blame, it's about the lesson," as they explore how financial struggles often force us to face our deepest insecurities and challenges. What makes this episode particularly powerful is its honesty about the vicious cycles we find ourselves trapped in – not just financially, but emotionally and relationally. The hosts don't offer empty platitudes or quick fixes, but instead create space for acknowledging how f*****g hard it is to exist in this economy while still maintaining hope. Whether you're facing your own financial crisis or simply feeling the squeeze of inflation, this conversation will remind you that you're not alone in your struggle. As Jesse puts it: "Where there's a will, there's a way out." Join us for this unexpectedly deep dive into what it truly means to survive and find meaning when life keeps kicking you in the dick.
