    Drivin’ while hosting?!

    This week, in our season 2 opener, you ride along with US! Our host updates listeners on the team’s award of the Google Podcasts creator program, which included an intensive 6 month training period with teams from across the globe. Tezarah gets personal about what drew her to the subject of driving, and we gear up for a fantastic and funny Season 2, where the show is a little older and a lot wiser.

    Drivin’ While Compassion Fatigued

    In our season 2 premier, we ride along with Charelle, a ball of energy and a self-described caretaker in both her private and professional life. Having just left her job at a human service agency, Charelle describes the compassion fatigue that can plague people who are accustomed to giving. She feels like a burden when she asks for help. Sound familiar? Come along on a journey that takes us from crying in the car to whether immigrants should have a quick path to driver’s licensing.

    Drivin’ while time shifting?!

    This week, we ride along with Amun, a poet and master of metaphysics, as well as a maker of one-of a-kind art pieces for the body. He takes us on a journey where mountains tell the future and, on a lucky day, drivers can manifest parking spaces.Ride along while we explore the power of connection and the importance of alignment with our surroundings.

    Driving while haunted?!

    Tezarah and producer Mel hop in the backseat and let Gabe and Kat from The Ghouls Next Door take the wheel. We get into the 2006 movie clunker, Penny Dreadful and explore the bounds of the therapist-patient relationship. Our conversation winds through hitchhiking, our guest’s driving histories, and why letting your kids ingest madness and mayhem is excellent parenting. Then we veer off the road and straight into Kat’s grandpa fetish. Come back for the sequel later today.

    Driving while haunted?!

    A double feature, just in time for Halloween! In this sequel, we pack the car with our favorite horror analysts from The Ghouls Next Door , Gabe and Kat. In preparation, we assigned ourselves the mother of all Carror Movies, Stephen King’s classic, Christine. We explore the car as a metaphor for female fury, applying a feminist lens to scary movies and Gabe’s special brand of sidewalk rage. Turn up your speakers and get spooked with us!
