The Best You Can Do

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2320473/open_sms] Hi, I took a break from my podcast because juggling full time school, an internship, full time work, my family and my sanity is too much. I just want to share some episodes while I’m on summer break and whenever I can from now on.  In this episode, Jesse and I are having a conversation about the importance of doing acts of kindness, caring about others and just doing the best you can do. We talk about having guilt for feeling like we’re not doing enough to support causes we care about, how it’s not easy to flip the switch on emotions during this time (especially online), the Gen Z stare, starting a new podcast (this was originally my idea and Jesse said he wanted to start but he hasn’t so I’m going to), white guys and Asian gfs, Jersey Mikes puppy scraps, shit reviews. Etc.
