This week in Waelti, for the first time ever we have a guest on for a third time! We have friend, comedian and pinball player David Tweite back to discuss the state of the stand-up comedy in a world where you can’t perform in front of a live audience, why nobody should ever date a cop and the value of planking as an exercise rather than the viral trend. We also have another previous guest pop in to discuss their take on fast food delivery.

This week in Waelti, we bring on comedian, author, podcast host Sara Benincasa to discuss the importance of creating boundaries with your parents as an adult, the inaccuracy of the age old saying “if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life” and how your closest groups of friends can’t always give you good advice in every area of your life.

This week in Waelti, we bring on long-time listener and the original steve-head turned Waeltaholic, Gabe Elias. Gabe and Waelti bond over their love of partying, we talk about what it’s like living in England during the pandemic, the inequity of building the world’s fastest car, but still making less money than a truck driver and how being a New Yorker is distinctly different from just being an American.

We're back after a month hiatus as Steve finally figures out how to record the pod while maintaining government ordered self-isolation. Waelti talks about getting over his anxiety of having an "essential" job that puts him in close contact with strangers, how the corona virus is forcing him to get to know a girl he likes rather than just sleeping with her and why when working from home it's good to have a separate place to work and relax.

Quarantine Week 4

This week in Waeli, Chris is truly independent as he records alone for the first time ever following week 1 of the corona virus self-quarantine. He finds himself conflicted over whether or not delivering chips is an essential job, talks about how despite rising tensions with his roommate he’s able to keep the apartment cleaner than ever and how New Yorkers are finding ways to support each other during this time even if it’s only a single kind gesture.

This week in Waelti, we invite friend and comedian Trey Galyon to talk with us about Waelti's pink eye affliction, how newly dating someone while hosting a podcast about yourself could only be a good thing and how if you have a roommate who gets blackout in your 30s that you're the one making bad choices, not them.
