    Slap That Fish Under Your Pit | really...

    What do college course numbers actually mean? Why don’t schools teach us how to do taxes? And most importantly—can a fish double as deodorant? This week on Really… with Sierra & Michael-Thomas, we’re bouncing from the things that have disappeared from our hometowns to the questionable usefulness of some college classes, the mysteries of registrars, zoology, weird animal facts, therapy, anatomy, and an unexpectedly long journey from Carpe deodorant to carp at Bass Pro Shop. Plus, we share what’s coming up for us outside the podcast, including new educational YouTube projects, more adventures out in the community, and some of what we have planned for Season 2. Somewhere along the way, Michael-Thomas says, “Slap that fish under your pit.” And frankly, there was no recovering after that. Really… with Sierra & Michael-Thomas is a GrifChap Studio production.

    Tree-on-Tree Violence | Our Summer Recap

    Sierra and Michael-Thomas are back—and apparently, the air is real close out there. In the Season 2 premiere of Really…, they recap a summer filled with Tybee Island food, boating on Lake Jocassee, body-confidence breakthroughs, favorite music and audiobooks, a Pink Floyd planetarium experience, an unexpected tick-borne illness, and a Fourth of July storm that sent an 80-foot tree crashing into the neighborhood. Plus, they preview a new season of road trips, local stories, special guests, and more time together—in person and occasionally on location. Welcome back to Really… with Sierra & Michael-Thomas!

From mentorship and career advice to nostalgic high school memories and chaotic commencement ceremonies, this episode is equal parts heartfelt, hilarious, and painfully relatable.
