Show Notes

Louie’s off keto and melting down over Cinnamon Toast Crunch, but it quickly becomes clear this episode isn’t really about cereal. What starts as a goofy check-in turns into a full-blown emotional audit — from the weight of unsaid feelings to the desperate scramble to fix something you maybe just made worse. The guys unravel the difference between:

"How can I talk to you better?" vs. "What can we do differently?"
Selfless care vs. reputation management
Guilt-driven repair vs. genuine accountability

They dissect what it means to feel dismissed, how panic can hijack your intention, and why changing how you speak to someone isn’t always love — sometimes it’s self-erasure. It’s funny, it’s chaotic, and Also featuring:
– “You hit me with a baseball!”
– Weaponized ‘I miss you’s
– A fake breakup that feels a little too real
– Love on the spectrum
– And Michael finally realizing he’s never actually thought before speaking 🙃
