Nevertheless We Persisted

smallbbqgrill

Maguire (@smallbbqgrill on TikTok) and Abbey are failures. Well, sort of. They've reached their early twenties without achieving A-list stardom. Now, they're podcasting to cope. Join them weekly (bi-weekly? once in a blue moon?) for messy friendship, philosophical musings, and discussions of fame, fortune, and what to do if you have neither.

    Episode V: Let't Talk About "Bad" Art

    If Maguire could impart two things to listeners, it's his deep disgust with Martin Scorsese and his deep love for Madison Beer. This week, your hosts are confessing their love for sub-par works of film, television, and music and debating what it even means to call a piece of art "bad." From sexism to Star Wars, they cover it all. It's the deeply cultured and nuanced conversation about Miley Cyrus, The Vampire Diaries, and Ed Sheeran that you never knew you needed.

    Episode IV: The Great Depression

    If these podcasters have one thing in common with the stock market crash of 1929, it's depression. In this episode, we're taking a deep dive into the psyches of two people who probably should have started therapy years ago. But why seek counseling when you can seek attention? Maguire and Abbey talk about mental health ups and downs, what they do on their worst days, and how they're hoping to cope with rough patches in the future. Also, stream Natural Rat.

    Episode III: Hitting the Books (Again)

    Your favorite podcast hosts are celebrating Maguire's return to academia, even if he isn't excited about it. Tune in for a talk about theater majors, the virtues and vices of college fraternities, and the pitfalls of college parties.

    Episode II: Comeback Kids

    After a hiatus induced by both legal trouble and a general decline in mental wellbeing, your two favorite podcasters are back with a vengeance. With a new name and a new outlook on life, Abbey and Maguire embrace this reboot of their podcast by discussing their pasts, their presents, and their uncertain futures. The duo reviews the many eras of their lives (move over, Taylor Swift) as well as what they've discovered about themselves along the way. This mix of irreverence and earnest reflection is the perfect summation of this new chapter of the podcast. Nevertheless, they have persisted.
