    Episode 15: Did we forget that we have a podcast? MAYBE! But it was fun to be back gabbin’ together once again. Megan and Taylor chat about their recent travels, get in their feels about gratitude, and discuss how to instill perspective - might it be through a sad documentary that you force your children to watch? The answer is YES. Also, Megan accidentally gives patriot vibes when talking about her love of the US, and we doubled up on hyper-fixations this week because we... wanted to.


    Hyperfixations:

    Megan: Thoughts vs. Thinking - Don’t Believe Everything You Think

    90s Rap Playlist


    Taylor: Perspective & gratitude - Documentary: Poverty in the USA

    Podcast episode with Matt Reynolds


    Megan and Taylor are best friends of 30 years, originating in Lilburn, Georgia, and spanning across Alabama, Tennessee, New York, Colorado, and now to Berlin, Germany. Join them as they catch up weekly to unpack Taylor’s move to Berlin with her husband and three sons and all the hilarious and moving things experienced along the way.

    Episode 14: We are back, baby! It’s 2024! It’s a brand new year! And we are…. surviving! Megan and Taylor discuss a few highlights/lowlights from the last few months and talk honestly about moving through tough times, the tricky side to hope, and how having feelings about the feelings can make a situation worse. But all in all, it was good to break out the microphones and get back on the metaphorical podcasting horse. We can only go up from here, y’all, so it's lookin’ good! 


    Hyperfixations:

    Megan: All of us Strangers  - Megan post-film viewing 

    Taylor: Low-level goals

    Episode 13: It has been a minute! Taylor shares about her recent trip to Budapest with her friend Lindsay, which leads us to discuss the importance of friendships, how you never know when your next friend is right around the corner, and we touch on our favorite topic: chemistry! We have to, of course, quickly address our favorite himbo's dum dum tweets (Travis Kelce) and cover two very different hyper-fixations.


    Hyperfixations:

    Megan: Protein. ⁠Are we eating too much of it?? ⁠
