Show Notes
Josh Gondelman and Matt Bragg play doctor, then play “Would You Rather.”
Cold Comforts: The hosts swap recovery rituals (from Bear Grylls–branded water filters to the miracle of simply going to bed on time) and marvel at the brief, god-like power of feeling well again.
Beauty vs. Brains: In a classic “Would You Rather,” Josh and Matt debate the merits of being a beautiful fool or an unattractive genius—and accidentally land on the perfect comedian origin story.
Love Island or Survivor?: One host dreams of alliances and Jeff Probst; the other envisions chaos, sunscreen, and a hero’s arc for the “rat boys.”
