Dear Jackelyn Shultz: You Hit Reply

A funny, heartfelt, and slightly haunted poem to Jackelyn Shultz, voiced by Burt AI Reynolds, about a book, two packages, one hopeful yes, and the mystery of whether Howie Mandel ever actually got the gift.

Ep 6 - Panic at the Costco and the Whisper in the Wipes Aisle

Forget breathwork retreats and vision boards. In this episode, our sarcastic spirit guide storms back into the fluorescent-lit chaos—reading Chapter 10: Panic at the Costco, Chapter 11: The Whisper in the Wipes Aisle, and Chapter 12: Thank You, You Bald Bastard from My Spirit Guide Is Howie Mandel: The Surprisingly Clean Path to Mental Clarity by Chris Palmore. This week, Spirit Howie reminds us that enlightenment can strike anywhere—even in a wholesale panic attack, a desperate glance down a wipes aisle, or a half-muttered thank you meant for a bald-headed imaginary friend. We explore the reality that real peace isn’t always found in pristine moments—it’s hidden in the everyday madness, the missed deals, and the messy gratitude that sneaks up when you least expect it. Because sometimes, the sacred path to sanity runs right through Costco… and smells faintly of disinfectant wipes. Sanitized wisdom continues. Subscribe, stock up emotionally, and remember: This never happened.

Ep. 3 – No Hugs, Just Heckling

Forget sage-scented hugs and flowy-robed wisdom. In this episode, our sarcastic spirit guide takes the mic again—reading Chapter 4: No Hugs, Just Heckling and Chapter 5: The RSVP I Never Sent from My Spirit Guide Is Howie Mandel: The Surprisingly Clean Path to Mental Clarity by Chris Palmore. This week, Spirit Howie reminds us that not all healing comes with a warm embrace. Sometimes, it sounds more like:"You’re a mess. But you’re still here. So let’s go." We explore the oddly affirming power of being called out with compassion, roasted into realization, and learning to protect your peace with a simple, sacred no. Because sometimes what you need isn’t motivation—it’s mockery, mild shame, and a metaphorical Purell slap to the face. Sanitized wisdom continues. Subscribe, say no to things, and remember: This never happened.

Ep. 2 – Germs and Genius + The Hand Sanitizer Confessional

This week, we double down on anxiety and antiseptic wisdom. Our narrator—still very much channeling the calm chaos of a post-enlightenment Burt Reynolds—reads Chapter 2: Germs and Genius and Chapter 3: The Hand Sanitizer Confessional from My Spirit Guide Is Howie Mandel: The Surprisingly Clean Path to Mental Clarity by Chris Palmore. In Chapter 2, we explore why Howie Mandel—like it or not—is the perfect spirit guide for anyone who’s ever spiraled mid-snack. In Chapter 3, we pull up the therapy couch and confess the truth: sometimes healing looks like imagining a bald Canadian celebrity handing you Purell and telling you to get a Frosty. It’s weird. It’s honest. It might just be the most emotionally supportive germaphobia you’ve ever experienced. Subscribe for weekly episodes—and remember: This never happened.
