Birthdays aren’t always cake and candles.Sometimes they’re a spotlight you never asked for – a reminder of another year gone by, a quiet tally of who still cares enough to show up, or just a day that sparks a rush of awkward gratitude when all you really want is a sofa and some peace.

In this episode, Tim and J dive into how our relationship with birthdays changes as we get older, and how those yearly milestones can trigger big questions about where we are in life. They also look back at moments they’d revisit in a heartbeat – some they’d handle differently, others they’d stay in forever.

If you’ve ever wondered why your birthday feels different these days, or caught yourself longing to time‑travel back to a moment that felt perfect, you’re in the right place.
