In The March of Minisodes: I’m Tellin Ya For The Last Time
Friday Mar 17, 2023
Friday Mar 17, 2023
Happy St. Paddy's Day, if that's your thing, more importantly, it's the last minisode this week!
In this installment, I'll be providing an update to thoughts and news from previous episodes or put a cap on some topics I didn't dive into as fully as I could have.
And then, I'm never talking about them EVER AGAIN.
That's probably not true but I'll be putting these topics to the side after this episode: perfection in the gym, AI is not really but kind of coming for us, and Marvel needs to stop being so far up its own ass.

Wednesday's episode brings back another oldie but a goodie, Recommendation Rewind.
For this iteration, instead of giving you recs based on the previous episode, I dive into a pop culture behemoth, The Last Of Us, and give you some solid post-apocalyptic shows and movies to watch.
Then I get into Moorhead and Benson's latest, Something In The Dirt, and rip out a few cosmic horror, meta-movie, mindf*ck recommendations.

New month, old theme. In The March of Minisodes returns! It was a hit last year, so it's coming back for a second round.
The first of three episodes this week goes through the new MLB rules, the objective behind them, and why everyone needs to chill the f*ck out about a clock ruining baseball.

We are rolling on with Ask The Experts and bringing in the official Occasionalists hockey correspondent, Rob Nugent!

February is upon us and with that, so is a new theme.
This month, we are having a series of discussions with people who have some expertise in a particular subject. To kick off our "Ask The Experts" month, the pod is bringing back sometimes guest star Greg Cherry to talk about standup comedy.
A budding comedian himself, Greg gives us the lowdown on what got him into comedy, his experience working his way through the ranks and some of the unexpected obstacles in the comedy world.
We also get Greg's Top 5 world leaders, past or present, whose standup set he'd like to see.
You can find Greg on IG @craigory_berry & TikTok @gregcherrycomedy.

The Gatekeepers: Know Your Sports
Monday Jan 30, 2023
Monday Jan 30, 2023
Despite some delays, the final episode of The Gatekeepers is here!
January wraps up with a deeper look at the play mechanics and rules of sports to give a casual fan (or not a fan at all) a look at what separates each sport from the other, some interesting sports trivia, and the barriers that have hindered certain sports from catching on with more people.
We also take a look at one of the most intense in-group vs. out-group examples: sports fanaticism and how those particular in-groups might be intentionally or unintentionally keeping others from enjoying the sport.

The Gatekeepers: Gym Culture

Thursday Jan 19, 2023
We are rolling through January with an episode about Gym Culture and what it's like to be an outsider trying to get in.
How can you minimize the awkwardness of doing something you've never done before, in a place you are unfamiliar with?
I am so glad you asked! This episode answers that question and addresses more reasons why people are hesitant to exercise, join a gym, or get hit with a severe case of Gymtimidation.
Another gateway has been opened for you, lift freely my friends!
