Originally aired November 5, 2024. Romero sits down with his longtime friend LogicProXGaming, a fellow blind creator known for his Minecraft streams and music production, for a candid conversation sparked by the October 15th Uber and Lyft protest in San Francisco, where blind guide dog handlers demonstrated against ride denials. The two swap their own guide dog histories -- including Romero's dog being taken from him by his guide dog school after eight years together -- and get into the real, everyday friction of traveling with a service animal in a rideshare: cleanliness, driver allergies, cultural attitudes toward dogs, and the constant pressure to be an "ambassador" for the blind community. They also break down why they believe change has to come from handlers policing themselves rather than protests and press releases, and open up about why neither of them plans to get another guide dog anytime soon.

Originally aired September 9, 2024. Romero is not happy. The NFL just announced Kendrick Lamar as the halftime headliner for Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, and Romero can't get past the fact that hometown legend Lil Wayne got passed over for the spot. He breaks down the Roc Nation politics behind the pick, revisits Weezy's decades of classics, and explains why he thinks the Super Bowl's biggest stage should have gone to New Orleans' own. Then Romero shifts gears into a corporate jargon countdown, reacting to a viral list of the 50 most-hated office phrases -- from "synergy" and "circle back" to "boil the ocean," "deep dive," and "we're like a family here."
