Merch - https://nonmembersshop.com/Happy National Respect for Chickens Day! We start the episode by unpacking Erin’s childhood trauma of being chased by chickens, give an exciting update on our official merch preorder launch, and debate why dogs love staring at random street trash like balls of aluminum foil. We also chat about Erin's recent insightful interview on the Outside podcast with Paddy O'Connell, share a highly "demotivational" running quote (it could be worse, you could have wet pants!), and Erin confesses her new shared obsession with playing late night Fortnite "duos" with Dan, while Mike talks up how great the Nintendo Switch 2 is.Next, Erin mentally prepares for her upcoming Dick's Sporting Goods brand trip to Florida. Between trying to decipher a "muted mustard" color palette and venting about the unfair gender double standards for looking "camera ready," the anxiety is real. We also reveal our new strategy of cold DMing creators like @ButteryPat to try and get invited to cooler events.In niche internet news, we take a deep, dark dive into the "looksmaxxing" trend, discussing the terrifying extremes some young men in the community are going to, from bone smashing their chins to allegedly smoking meth, just to achieve a hollowed out jawline. For "Erin's Tea Time," we unpack the messy passive aggressive feud between influencers Alix Earle and Alex Cooper, Brianna Chickenfry’s involvement, and the allegedly bizarre job interviews at the Unwell Network. We also drop a crucial PSA about why you should never leave a full water bottle in a hot car.In sports, we marvel at Zhang Ziyu, the 7'3" Chinese basketball player who can casually drop the ball into the hoop without jumping, and look ahead to her 2027 WNBA draft eligibility. We break down a chaotic NFL Draft moment where Howie Roseman and the Eagles executed a massive heist, trading up to steal Makai Lemon out from under the Steelers while he was literally on the phone with Pittsburgh. Finally, we wrap up with a wholesome "No Bad, No Sad" story about UCLA's football coach reminding his players to learn the names of the janitors and support staff, proving everyone is an essential part of the team.
