Back with the Beef! In part 2 of their hang with Jacqueline aka Jackie, Ken & Car get the juices flowing with a couple rounds of Who Wants to be a Millionaire. They Do A Learn about Jackie’s process to a PHD in Philosophy & Art and explore what her studies mean, which leads to the Beefy News: a journey through how we think of things, what things mean, the process of being alive, and other cool things that are too hard to explain. Jackie talks about presenting at conferences, including the Queer Death Conference in Sweden, and her paper on plastic bags as human ghosts. The friends explore undoing our certainties and challenging the system. In Doing A Good, Jackie wrote a book! They discuss her book, her writing, and how having a Poetry Moment cannot be denied. They then explore fear, an invitation for failure, and picking up the heavy thing. Big Ideas: Just show up and do it. Just make a choice. Lift the heavy weights. Finally, a hilarious round of quick fire questions for Jackie. PLUS: Snack bars of youth! Walk out music! Is there a doctor on the plane?! Where’s Him Now?! Odd Legs Zine! Tony Owl! The Decider! Never Debbie! And more!

She’s here!! Car & Ken are joined on the couch this week by friend, writer, philosopher and Good Time: Jaqueline (aka Jackie, Jacko, Big Jack, Jaqcoolen)!

They debate the correct pronunciation of the gong sound from Law & Order before getting into a stale edition of Bach Chat (Ken & Car established at the top of the ep that they’re working on irrelevancy & preemptive nostalgia, so it checks out). It’s the unveiling of the new theme song “Highway to the Peter Zone” (!!!) and then a discussion of the girls’ drama, Peter’s issues and what’s up with Kelly. Ken spoils the Kelsey-Tammy drama live for Jackie & Car, and they cover who’s got to go & why Peter can’t lead. PLUS: Ken’s pants! Wrestling singlets! Alter ego Biff doing a naughty! Bach Daddy!

SPECIAL GUEST EDITION: Jessica Dobson Pt. 2

As exciting as the new Lion King, Ken & Car are back on the couch this week with a friend! Jessica Dobson is a magical musician (Deep Sea Diver), important & special friend, and all-around beautiful, wise, sharp, kind, funny and insightful human bean who has come to share the moments to be treasured forever. Ken & Jess tell the beginning of their Friendship Love Story which segues somehow seamlessly into Ken’s New Metal Moment & Actor-Turned-Musician Moments starring Jeremy Renner. In Beefy News, Jess shares the history of her musical journey, and the friends explore the ways we use social media personally & professionally, vulnerability in sharing & connection, and the balance of jumping through necessary hoops while staying true to your purpose.

Actor-turned-musician moments starring Jeremy Renner! Jerry goes to the doctor! Cooking! Bug Bites! And more!

SPECIAL GUEST EDITION: Jessica Dobson Pt. 1

This week kicks off with an exploration into La Croix ranking & asks the burning question: why does anyone like mixed berry? Ken & Car go behind the scenes with insider info on audio books & dish on editing.  On this, the eve of Car’s (and Cary’s) anniversary, they do some Fancy Talk about sacred jewelry upkeep (Car’s engagement ring) and everyone Does A Little Learn. The friends also do a quick check in on Sleep Journeys: what it does, what it doesn’t, what it is right now and how some people nail it.  Ken recaps the finale of The Bachelor (since Car refuses to watch) and they explore what went wrong & what Jed could have done differently, which segues perfectly into this week’s Beefy News: the “only once” concept of marriage. Why do so many folks say they “only want to do this once” like it’s a unique sentiment? Can we expand our ideas of marriage & partnership? Will the social opinion on divorce continue to evolve? When to work & when to walk? What is “right” & what is “wrong”? With more questions than answers, this is a To Be Continued for sure. Plus: Blue Raspberry facts! Jed is a no-no! Women are not property! Party Nappers! Fame matters! Tyler C & Gigi Hadid! Life is complicated! Generations! To get in on the conversation & sign up for the Bachelor Book Club email: doingagood@gmail.com

Screen Time & Climate Change

It’s going down for real this week as Car’s dad is here for a visit (return of the Mac!) & Ken is living her “best frat boy life”. They start by exploring frosted tips (Ken), what age you used to want to be (not 20) before diving into the IRL experience of Splash N’ Chill aka Float Island (come for a ride!). They recount Ken’s recent night out Doing A Club, the quest for dancing and the not-ok-behavior of strangers (including a story of a person who should be 86’ed). Then the friends take it back to a Happy Place by discussing Car’s time with Pops—including acts of service & the hereditary hilarity of travel bags. Around 42:00 a fall project for all the friends is introduced: Bach Book Club, babay! Email to get in on the learning, the laughter, the togetherness. Plus: Being tired! Name that email! The fair! Egg McMuffers! Becoming your parents! Parents on the pod! Cyndi Lauper! New lingo!

Box Bag
