Hello everyone! If you’ve been around this podcast or even my recap for longer than a minute, you probably know the moment I checked out of Devin’s hometown date. Let me give you a hint. It started with the word “Running” and ended with the word “Club.” Some Guy in Austin and I break down all of the intricacies of each hometown date and share our t…

Once upon a time, I saw the Broadway musical Wicked and was forever changed by the story of a green woman named Elphaba and her popular roommate Galinda (the “ga” is silent). As these two ladies introduced me to another side of Oz, launching their friendship at the University of Shiz and getting into trouble at the Emerald City, not once did I thin…

Hello everyone! Well, Some Guy in Austin is back this week to talk about all the things surrounding Jenn’s journey to find love. We cover a lot of ground in this episode, including but not limited to: Aggressive turtlenecks. Is this a thing? Should we be worried that Jenn’s ex-boyfriend looks nothing like her current crop of suitors? Was the rain o…

I don’t know if you know this, but New Zealand is the perfect place to fall in love. It’s also the perfect place to hate on Devin, pressure Jenn into jumping off a building, escort a wannabe bad boy directly to the awaiting rejection SUV, and rekindle a romance that you thought was smack dab in the Friend Zone. Who’s Matthew? No one knows! And I ca…

Hello, everyone! I am a professional, and I think that it is only fair that I apologize to Double N Jenn for poking fun at the way she pronounced Melbourne, Australia when she lifted her flute of champagne to “cheers” that her boys would be foregoing any stateside nonsense in lieu of an adventure down under. Apparently, the locals do pronounce it “…

Hello, everyone! I don’t know about you, but I’m excited to see where Double N Jenn’s journey to find love takes her. Some Guy in Austin…not so much.

His unfor…

It's been a minute since we shared our favorite TV shows and movies, so I invited Todd to help me sift through what's good and what's not. Remember, Todd is my friend who will watch the dark and twisty shows, so if you're looking for murder or scary or think pieces, he's your guy. On the other hand, I talk about Pretty Little Liars for way too long…

Hello, everyone!Well, it's Tortured Poets Department time. Lara and I took a few days to digest Taylor Swift's new double album and are ready to share our initial thoughts. If I had to describe the piece in a few words, I would choose "raw" and "brooding." So, if you're looking for a 1989-ish sing-a-long, I'm afraid this isn't the era for you. With…

Y'all, the showrunners got me.

Hello, everyone!Je m’appelle Claude and I have officially reached the nervous status of our boy Joey. Has the Bachelor ever cried this early in a season because of all the feels he’s feeling?
