    Grief is Some Bullsh!t

    *Content Warning: We did not edit this episode- "ums", "likes", chairs creak, Aaron burps, throats are cleared, etc - it could be a sensory nightmare. Additionally, as alluded in the title, this episode focuses heavily on grief, and the experiences around grieving and loss, including witnessing death, participating in end of life procedures, and our own last wishes - some dark humor, harsh death words, and Monique's foul mouth as always, abound. If you're not in a space to listen to this episode - don't, if you need support as someone in the throes of grieving, please please reach out to either one of us.  Find us on Twitter: Aaron @armahillo, Monique @fauxmeaux, and the podcast @unun_podcast. In this episode, Aaron and Monique give a brief update of the last few months, and then dive in to discuss the losses they've experienced in their lifetimes. Especially touching on the unique experience of bereavement, they highlight all of the peculiar ways they've coped with the grief that followed each loved one.  Mentioned in the episode: William Basinski - The Disintegration Loops

    Put A Record On

    In episode three, Aaron briefly discussed mix tape culture and how important it was in his life. That dialogue inspired the duo for this episode, where they get in depth with their musical histories and most memorable musical moments as huge music nerds. Featuring some passionate Beatles hate, techno music education, Mary J. Blige ruins a camping trip, and so much more that originally this episode was nearly 1:30.  Some things mentioned in this episode: War of the Worlds Dubstep Mix Basinski Deteriorating Loop The Pack Your Bowl Podcast Aaron's Top 50 via Spotify {with link to liner notes in the playlist description} Monique's Top 50 via Spotify {with link to liner notes in the playlist description} Don't forget to send your interest regarding the 2020 Handmade Card Exchange!

    I'm Bothered: Tales of an Internet

    No, we hear you - this is a long episode. TL;DR - 2020 is trash. To restore some semblance of human connection, Aaron and Monique are hosting a handmade card exchange! Details still TBD, but send either of us a DM or email monique@hey.com {please include your email address} to express your interest in participating.  Also in this episode: discussions of sweet Internet beginnings, Aaron does a shockingly accurate impersonation of a modem dialing up, mix-tapes, Monique never tells you - but her first Instant Messaging username was VampiressNyx, a book recommendation, and 27,000 memes because Aaron is petty af.  Follow Aaron & Monique on Twitter & Instagram: @armahillo and @maefoofoo {Visit Aaron's meme research at: bit.ly/fantasticmemes}

    Y'all Gon' Listen Today: The Fight For Racial Equity Needs You To Look At Yourself

    It's just Monique in this special episode one and a half. The discussion surrounding racism and racial equity has finally begun as we protest, worldwide, police brutality. Many white people are just waking up to what Black folks have been screaming about for years - our people are being brutalized and slaughtered in the streets on too frequent a basis, and without justice. In this episode Monique spills harsh truths about complicit silence, why she's tired of coddling white people, her own struggle with her racial identity, and why being an ally is not the goal.  Follow Monique and Aaron on the Twitter: @maefoofoo & @armahillo

    This Whole Episode is B-Roll

    It's our first episode! We are Aaron and Monique, a couple of nerds living in upstate NY with their boatload of kids, garden, and a hamster. I {Monique} was drunk when we recorded this, so it should be an introduction. May the odds be ever in our favor.  Aaron Twitter: @armahillo Monique Twitter & Instagram: @maefoofoo
