Up For Discussion

The gang sits down with guest Gabriel Chernitsky (@gabenistky) to hear about his upcoming show Learn Real Good, a genetic splicing of improv and a TEDtalk! Then we chat about foods that are hard to cook, the moment we knew we were good at things, and the problem with highly-produced podcasts.

This week, the boys sit down for a great chat about forgiveness, communication, and how to tell if someone is gaslighting you!

Here at Up For Discussion, we don't hate Mondays, because Mondays are when we record new episodes. But we DO love Garfield, and we SUPER love this week's guest! Shawn Bowers (@shawnbowers) is an American cartoonist & podcaster who's made a name for himself with ridiculous Garfield parody art (among other things) so we called him up for a nice chat over a plate of lasagna. We talk about how embarrassing it'll be when our children find our work later in life, eccentricities, transforming into animals, and more! Gru? Gru.
