It's The Most Wonderful Time of the Year
Esplicito
In today's episode, we try to keep it light. We talk about a few news stories we found that were interesting and we list our top 5 favorite Christmas songs. We had fun and hope you enjoy it. Share your favorites with us at 1nowweretalking@gmail.com
Pink Slips, Foreign Trips, and Dipshits
Esplicito
In today's episode we talk about the results of the election, the lack of voter turnout and what it all means to us. We also discuss becoming nomads - spending our years travelling to and staying in foreign countries for extended periods. We recommend the Brent and Michael Are Going Places substack (https://www.brentandmichaelaregoingplaces.com/). We also talk about Scott's layoff from his job that came in the form of an email over the weekend.
Put a Woman in Charge
On the eve of the 2024 election, we talk about the stress and "nauseous optimism", the ads and the celebrity endorsements. Do they matter? Will your decision depend on which famous people support which candidate? We also talk about the ad that seemingly gives permission to women to vote the way they want, not necessarily the way their husband wants and how your vote is supposed to be secret.
The Halloween of Cowards and Greed
Today, we spend some time talking about the decision by the owners of the LA Times and the Washington Post to not endorse a Presidential candidate, despite their editorial boards being ready to. Julie shares some events from this week in history. And, we talk about our latest nights sleeping out under the stars. Please rate, review and subscribe.

Civic Duty
In today's episode, we talk about Scott's blog post in which he writes about what he believes are, or should be, the civic duties of all citizens. Voting, paying taxes, serving on juries and a year of service are the four "pillars". Its a lively discussion and, as always, we appreciate any feedback. You can also listen to the podcast on our YouTube channel. You can find it under our podcast name.
Vegas Baby!
On this week's episode, we talk about our recent trip to Sin City to see the Eagles at the Sphere. Spoiler alert: we enjoyed the concert somewhat.
Weight, Weight, Don't Tell Me
Today we talk about our weight loss journeys and how, yes, taking medicine to help with that is a-ok. We also have our good story of the week. Our next episode will be delayed, but we'll recount our trip to Sin City.
Witch Hunts and the Death of a Legend
On today's episode, we spend some time talkin about the Rush song, Witch Hunt. Scott wrote a blog post about it (https://eaglesfanintn.substack.com/p/witch-hunt). We also discuss our asshole of the week, Bob Marley's generosity and, sadly the death of James Earl Jones.
Blue Travelers
In today's episode, we talk about travelling. How to avoid some of the mistakes we made and some gadgets that may make travel a bit easier. We also have two Am I the Asshole, travel related, of course. https://www.nbcnews.com/select/shopping/best-travel-tech-gadgets-amazon-rcna97967 Travel insurance companies: travelinsurance.com squaremouth.com insuremytrip.com
