    Only Neighbors – Too Close for Comfort

    Welcome to another awkward-filled episode of Well, That Was Awkward with Bree and Mendy! In this intimate installment, Bree and Mendy dive into the theme of awkward neighbor stories. They share their own personal experiences, from sneaky pets to avoiding neighbors while stoned, and even discuss a listener's tale of an unexpected sight during a late-night baseball game. Along the way, they embrace the joy of awkwardness and remind us all that sometimes, the best thing to do is laugh through it. You'll hear stories about: Bree’s giant dog Basho, who mastered an impressive disappearing act and lived a double life. Mendy’s hilarious confession of avoiding her neighbor while under the influence of edibles. (P.S. You can listen to the episode where Bree showed up inadvertently under the influence of THC HERE.)

Advice for world travelers from “Paul”:    “I found it very helpful to read up on the places you intend to visit –  not only on the history but also on the current state of their affairs. Then use that knowledge to start conversations with the people who live there and ask for advice about places to visit and where to eat.    Also, read up on the places in said countries you want to visit and try to make sure you get there.    Always be polite, kind and appreciative. No ugly American stuff, and don’t be demanding or rude. Kindness begets kindness😀😘🤗”   Top Five Places that Paul recommends seeing in a hippie car. Rothenburg ob der Tauber, Germany Florence, Italy Paris, France Vienna, Austria Lugano, Switzerland

    Sebastian the Superhero: When A Good Deed Goes Wrong

    Welcome to another episode of "Well That Was Awkward," where we dive into the hilariously cringeworthy and downright awkward moments that life throws our way. In this episode, Bree and Mendy are back with stories that will make you laugh, cringe, and maybe even rethink your next good deed! In This Episode: First In-Person Recording: Bree and Mendy share the excitement (and awkwardness) of recording in person for the first time, complete with multi-camera action and all the self-soothing habits they have to leave behind. From picking noses to dealing with the new "hot pink beeper," the transition from audio-only to video is as awkward as it gets. Awkward Restroom Encounter: Mendy recounts a restroom mishap that builds on their previous discussions about knocking on public restroom doors. What happens when you accidentally cause a minor meltdown over a simple knock? Mendy's tale of awkwardness in a little country store restroom will have you nodding in sympathy (or laughing out loud). Birthday Awkwardness: Birthdays can be awkward, especially when you don’t like big callouts. Bree shares how two friends cleverly navigated this minefield by sending sweet, understated messages instead of loud birthday wishes. It’s a reminder that sometimes, the best way to celebrate is with a little less fanfare. Interspecial Awkward Moment: Bree had an unexpected visitor while setting up her new studio—a red-tailed hawk! This majestic bird wasn’t just knocking on her door; it wanted to come inside. Bree talks about her 45-minute encounter with the hawk and the awkwardness of mistaking a bird for a human knocking on her door. Listener Story - Sebastian the Superhero: The highlight of the episode is Sebastian’s epic (and awkward) tale of good intentions gone wrong. Raised with Eastern spiritual values and a deep commitment to service, Sebastian is the guy everyone wants as a friend. After a concert in the countryside, he hears cries for help from the woods and springs into action. Grabbing a nearby concertgoer for backup, he embarks on a rescue mission that takes a surprising turn. Was it a damsel in distress or something entirely unexpected? Tune in to find out how Sebastian’s heroic intentions led to one of the most awkward moments of his life. Awkward Rescues and Reflections: Bree and Mendy break down the elements that made Sebastian’s story so delightfully awkward. From the adrenaline-pumping rescue attempt to the realization that not all cries for help are what they seem, they explore how even the best intentions can lead to hilariously awkward situations. Final Thoughts: The episode wraps up with some practical advice from Sebastian on how to handle unexpected situations. Whether it’s bringing someone along when you’re unsure or learning to laugh at the absurdity of life, there’s a takeaway for everyone. Shoutout to the Bhakti Boys: Inspired by Sebastian’s story, Bree and Mendy give a special shoutout to Sebastian’s band, the Bhakti Boys. If soulful, groovy music with a spiritual twist is your jam, be sure to check them out!  Here’s how to find the Bhaki Boyz: https://www.facebook.com/bhaktiboyz/ https://bhaktiboyz.bandcamp.com/album/bhakti-boyz https://open.spotify.com/artist/0HW4FFxa96TS46YmrAuyEd https://music.apple.com/us/artist/bhakti-boyz/1492767582   Connect with Us!
