Hilah's still drunk from the night before, but manages to trudge through this recording by eating fifteen different meals. Jessie's ketamine treatments are making her smarter and less relatable. In spite of these differences, they both agree - the dark void that is death totally chills them the fuck out- and people who have Near Death Experiences agree that it is superior to the fluorescent, relentless insanity that is life!
They counsel a listener who is dealing with radio silence from a new friend who just had a baby, and is newly sober. They discuss the trauma of motherhood, neurological deficits caused by Alcohol Abuse Disorder, post-partum, and how to support friends in the wake of radical life changes.
PLUS a bizarre mental illness NO ONE is talking about: Dorito Paste... IS IT DEMONIC?
P.S. lots of vomit talk
