First things first, we want to give the warmest welcome to our cohost of this episode: Pink Mini Hat. Our sassy, MOUTHY bestie!

Ok, so the US might've lost the World Cup, but our fleeting patriotism lives on in watching visitors from other countries experience Americana for the first time: we're talking Buc-ee's, Big Gulps, portions that require a to-go box on arrival." It's ridiculous. It's charming. It's "I wish I could see it all for the first time again through your eyes".

Then we get utterly speechless about friendship being criminally understudied. We can all talk about romantic relationships for HOURS, there are whole industries, songs, movies, books for it, but friendships? All those levels and tiers and unspoken rules…we want justice for friendships! Plus: a brief and important discussion of tiny intimacies (the stranger elevator ride, the accidental ear whisper - you know the ones).

Also, Jon changes outfits approximately three times mid-recording (OW OW papa) and once again we are asking Strava to sponsor us. Strava. Baby. Call us.
