Fear. It creeps up in the dead of night, in dentist chairs, on balconies 65 floors up, and sometimes… in the form of your dad pranking you with a dead snake. In this episode, Tim and J dive headfirst into the irrational, the existential, and the unexpectedly hilarious world of fear – from man-made heights and dental trauma, to the call of the void **ominous music** and the terrifying thought of raising kids in a hyper-masculine world.
They swap stories about escape room breakdowns, seaside shark realisations, and listener-submitted fears (spoiler: you’re not alone in being afraid of open water or people thinking you’re fake). It’s funny, raw, and occasionally heart-thumpy.
Oh, and we talk about a guy who says that it's not "manly" to **checks notes** eat soup...
Key themes:
– Fear as a motivator
– Irrational vs rational fear
– Parenting and provider anxiety
– Panic attacks and mental health
– Weird listener confessions
– Why clowns are the absolute worst
