About this listen
Welcome to Slightly Burnt Toast — the podcast where a millennial couple serves up slightly overcooked takes on life, love, and everything in between. Hosted by husband-and-wife duo Samantha and Elbert, this show dives into the awkward, honest, and often hilarious differences in how two people see the world.Expect weekly episodes filled with relationship debates, hot takes on love, life, and real talk about navigating adulthood — all with a side of soft chaos and millennial wit.🎙️ New episodes biweekly.
This week, we're getting very real about career identity.
What happens when your sense of self is too wrapped up in your job title? We unpack the emotional rollercoaster of getting laid off (yes, even multiple times), navigating the weird in-between, and figuring out who you are outside of work.
We also get into our personal pet peeves — from Slack etiquette to loud chewers — and how those little annoyances might actually be big clues about what’s not working in your life or career. Plus, a spicy debate on whether taking risks (like a big career switch) is brave or just chaos in disguise.
If you’ve ever questioned your career path, your worth, or just wanted to scream into a pillow after a Zoom meeting... this one’s for you.
