    Nurse Life: Night Shift & Boundaries (ft Deenesha) - Ep. 10

    Deenesha (RPN, postpartum) breaks down night shift life, dating safety, 12-hour shift boundaries, and the chaos of running a flower business while doing her RN. If you ask her to “chill” the day before a 12-hour shift… she’s gonna lie and tell you she’s busy — but she’s already in bed 😂 This episode with Deenesha is the realest mix of nursing life, dating in today’s world, and the hustle of balancing RN school + postpartum nursing + a floral business. We get into nurse burnout (yes, the equipment room is real), why dating a nurse isn’t for the weak, and the Facebook Marketplace customer that tried to short her on a bouquet. We talk about: Why 12-hour shifts change your whole social lifeDating safety + location sharing (and the Yorkdale anxiety moment)Nursing burnout + mentally checking out mid-shiftHow she started her floral business (self-taught)The “deposit scam” story and why she changed her policyWould she quit nursing if her business blows up?Guest: Deenesha — RPN (postpartum), RN student at Seneca, floral business owner.

    Women: “I Just Want to Be Toned” — Here’s the Truth - Ep. 9

    Women say: “I don’t want to get bulky, I just want to be toned.” In this episode, Joana Mathew and I break down why “toned” doesn’t happen without muscle — and why strength training (yes, heavier weights) is what actually creates shape and definition. What we cover The truth behind “toned” and body compositionWhy heavier weights won’t magically make you hugeHow to start lifting heavier with confidenceSimple mindset shifts that change results fastAbout Joana Joana is a female trainer and coach who helps people get stronger and actually look the way they say they want to look — without living in fear of “getting bulky.” She’s big on real strength training, smart progression, and shutting down fitness myths that keep people stuck doing the same light weights forever. For anyone who says “I just want to be toned” “Toned” = muscle + lower body fat. You don’t get definition without building something underneath.Lifting heavier doesn’t make you huge overnight — it makes you stronger, tighter, and more shaped.Stop chasing sweat. Chase progressive overload (adding reps/weight over time).For women who are afraid of “bulking” You’re not going to wake up looking like a bodybuilder by accident.The “bulky” look usually comes from eating more + not enough training structure, not from lifting heavy.If you want shape: train hard, eat smart, sleep, repeat.Connect with Krish / Who’s Talking?

    225 IS MID?! Gym Myths, Anime, Faith & Steroids (ft. Fiit4faith) - Ep. 8

    Tim might be the strongest person I know – and he also animates Paw Patrol. In this episode, we talk about gym myths, steroid culture, faith, discipline, anime and what it really takes to stay in the game when your joints start fighting back. In this episode, we get into: Why lifting doesn’t actually attract girls… it attracts dudes touching your arms 😂The truth about steroids, teenagers hopping on gear, and what it really does to your joints and tendonsHow faith and fitness became two sides of the same discipline coin for TimWhy 225 is “okay” in the gym but wild in the real worldGym anxiety, injuries and the reality that no one cares what you’re liftingBeing a weeb AND a gym bro – Dragon Ball Z, Goku/Vegeta, anime-inspired trainingHigh school football trauma vs Gonzaga farm boys and getting absolutely cooked on the fieldWhy AI is coming for junior animators and why you shouldn’t just sit and binge NetflixAbout Tim Tim is a computer animator at Guru Studio (yes, Paw Patrol 🐾) and a part-time personal trainer. He’s been lifting for over 15 years and somehow balances big faith, big weights and big creativity – praying before heavy sets, coaching clients, and still nerding out over anime. For aspiring animators Don’t just watch shows – make your own.Keep building your portfolio; AI is coming for the easy, junior work.Your edge is taste, style and discipline, not just software.For gym rookies & injured vets Keep it simple. Keep it consistent.Master the basic movements instead of chasing TikTok “magic exercises.”Protect your joints and tendons – ego lifts don’t matter if you can’t train next year.Shoutout Huge love to Blurry Mane, the only man that can make you feel good is your barber 😂 If you’re in the GTA, check him out near Hurontario & Steeles (not sponsored – just the homie).

    You’re Not Buying a Car, You’re Buying a Community (ft. TheVaulture) - Ep. 7

    You’re not just buying a car – you’re buying your way into a community. In this episode of Who’s Talking? – Wait, What?, I sit down with Hameed, the host of Vulture, a Toronto-based classic car community that’s more about people, stories and vibes than flexing exhausts and badges. We talk about building events that feel like a retreat, why the best car meets are actually kinda wholesome, and how Toronto car culture became its own weird little ecosystem. We also get into travel, tech jobs, burnout, fake badges, LED strips, and why some people need a little chaos in their life to feel alive. In this episode: Why “you’re not buying a car, you’re buying a community”How Vulture turned classic car shows into social experiencesWhat actually makes someone a “car person” (it’s not just what’s under the hood)Gas vs electric – the microwave steak vs BBQ Overrated vs underrated cars at car meetsThe biggest red flags when someone pulls into a meetFlex culture, social media, and doing things “for the badge”Building niche events that attract the right people, not just loud carsThe best advice Hameed’s ever received, and what he’d tell anyone entering the car sceneConnect with Vulture Instagram: @thevaultureWebsite: Vulture – https://thevaulture.com/Connect with me Host: Krish / @whoskrishInstagram: @whoskrishPodcast IG: @whostalkingpodTikTok: @whoskrishBusiness inquiries: [whoskrish@gmail.com]If you enjoyed the episode, follow the show, drop a rating, and share it with a friend who’s “not a car person” but secretly scrolls car listings all day.
