What if every multiple-choice question in life had the same answer—and it wasn’t “C:" drink a White Claw. It's Love. Brendan takes you from cicada symphonies in his childhood backyard to the Hollywood Hills, unpacking why love is always the move, even when your ego wants to honk, flip off strangers, or buy a fedora.
In this solo ep, Brendan riffs on the hilarious, messy loop of forgetting love, then clawing our way back to it.
Along the way, you’ll hear about:
✨ The fake sword improv option we all secretly want to try in traffic
🧠 Why calling your ex a narcissist might just be your ego doing stand-up
🔥 How to win the breakup without posting thirst traps in the Alps
💡 Why everything is temporary (yes, even your Cedar Rapids family trip)
💭 A trippy Hollywood Hills hike that made Brendan realize he was doing just fine.
