  1. Emily's New York Times interview was...weird

    Emily's New York Times interview was...weird

    In this episode, we’re diving into the often-misunderstood world of crunchy living. Emily and Jason break down the stereotypes surrounding crunchy people—like the idea that they’re overly judgmental, hyper-political, or rigidly conservative—and unpack why these misconceptions persist. Emily shares insights from her recent interview with The New York Times, where the reporter framed her story through a narrow lens, leading to a thought-provoking conversation about narratives and agendas.  At the heart of it all, Emily and Jason ask an important question: Why can’t we all agree on the basics of being healthy, happy humans? With their signature humor and candidness, they challenge listeners to embrace a more open-minded view of what it means to live naturally—and remind everyone that crunchy isn’t a one-size-fits-all label.  If you haven't checked out Emily's book, it's available everywhere: Really Very Crunchy: The Beginner's Guide to Removing Toxins from Your Life Without Adding them to Your Personality Learn more about your ad choices.

    They said WHAT about me on Reddit?

    Emily and Jason Morrow dive into the fascinating world of personality types and how they shape the way we handle criticism.

Emily and Jason explore how different personalities process feedback—whether it’s constructive or just plain mean—and share their own wins and fails when facing criticism. From marriage to parenting to public life, they reveal the surprising ways personality types can clash or complement.

With a mix of laughter, honest conversation, and a dash of crunchy wisdom, Emily and Jason unpack the science, cultural expectations, and real-life experiences around parenting and happiness.

    Top 10 Conspiracies: Truths, Myths, and Maybes

    Emily and Jason Morrow dive headfirst into the wild world of conspiracy theories! Armed with the top 10 conspiracy theories as posted in a Popular Mechanics article, they break down each one and rank them on their own very scientific scale, from “likely just a tall tale” to “maybe there’s something to this.” But this isn’t your typical deep-dive podcast—Emily and Jason keep it light, poking fun at each theory with a healthy dose of skepticism and humor. They also wonder: Why can’t we have fun with conspiracies anymore? Why does everyone seem so quick to take sides and kill the fun? Tune in for some laughs, some “what ifs,” and a refreshing reminder that not every theory needs to be a battle. Be sure to check out Emily's books!
