Question Everything You've Inherited with Brandon Kyle Goodman

Who would you be if society never got its hands on you? In this expansive conversation, writer, actor, and host of the hilarious podcast Tell Me Something Messy [https://podfollow.com/1766708240] Brandon Kyle Goodman joins Foster and Cesar to discuss ‘disruptive curiosity’, destigmatizing sex, and choosing to be child-free in a society that expects parenthood. Brandon opens up about their new journey on Lexapro, the healing power of talking openly about sex while working on Big Mouth, and the profound decision to not have children despite years of assuming they would. Brandon is both hilarious and wise, as they break down how to live authentically, build community, and break generational cycles by asking the questions no one else wants you to ask, like… aren’t all sports super gay??  In this episode they explore:  * Why Brandon tried on heels to discover what was truly theirs vs. what was inherited * The moment Brandon realized: "I don't want kids" (and how that broke a generational cycle) * The difference between wanting to have kids and wanting to be a parent * Why raising a mixed-race child as a gay couple required questions they couldn't answer Brandon Kyle Goodman [https://www.brandonkylegoodman.com/]:  * Listen to their podcast Tell Me Something Messy [https://www.youtube.com/@brandonkgood] * Subscribe to their Substack [https://substack.com/@brandonkylegoodman] * IG: @brandonkylegoodman [https://www.instagram.com/brandonkylegoodman/] Also mentioned:  * Pamela Samuelson’s Sex Ed class for tweens/teens & Take Back The Speculum: EMBODYWORK [https://embodyworkla.com/] If this episode spoke to you, you will love From Homeless to The Oscars: Dedrick Bonner on Resilience [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/from-homeless-to-the-oscars-dedrick-bonner-on-resilience/id1795211471?i=1000758402649].

Stop Caring What People Think: The Art of Giving Less Fucks

Why do we care so much about what other people think? Foster and Cesar explore the art of giving less fucks, as a source of freedom from needing to control how others perceive you. Despite a world steeped in people-pleasing, our biological fear of being ostracized by the tribe no longer serves us in the age of social media and cancel culture. They ask the question: is it possible to incrementally build the muscle of caring less? They reveal how to balance kindness and truth, why you can't control how someone receives your message, and the power of giving less fucks as a soil bed for boldness and creativity. In this episode they explore:  * The real work: not giving a fuck without anger  * Why caring what people think is a biological fear that no longer serves us * How Foster incrementally desensitized herself to being seen * Cesar's "back pocket fucklessness" and when to access it * How posting daily on TikTok made the flops stop mattering If this episode spoke to you, you will love How to Keep Creating When Your Inner Critic Says You’re Worthless [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-keep-creating-when-your-inner-critic-says-youre/id1795211471?i=1000764008916].
