EP 215: My Conscience Made Me Do It

The inner voices are back, and they’re telling you not to miss this episode of Live, Laugh, Larceny! This week, Trevin’s nostalgia gets wrecked as he finally sits down to watch the Netflix sequel Happy Gilmore 2. From awkward sports switches to overcomplicating every scene, not even Bad Bunny can save this mess of a movie. Expect comedic movie commentary and cringe-worthy pop culture takes. Amanda shares a back-to-school dilemma featuring her daughter Lyla, who’s bravely ready to ride the bus… while Amanda is the one secretly terrified to let her go. Between parenting fears, first-day-of-school jitters, and navigating mom guilt, Amanda turns to Trevin for advice. With a little help from friends (and his trademark deadpan wisdom), she may just find the solution to this relatable mom-life crisis. Amanda kicks off trivia with a question about a canceled mascot from days gone by. Was it a fighting pickle, a Nittany Lion, or a banana slug? One of these “losers” might just be a winner. Then Trevin brings a current events trivia story from Japan, where McDonald’s food was abandoned in stores and littered on the streets—blame Pokémon, contamination, or a viral social media challenge? For the main stories, Amanda shares the villain origin story of Chuck E. Cheese, following 41-year-old Jermel Jones from Tallahassee, Florida, who feels the spirit of a mascot possess him at work—turning him into a literal rat. Trevin follows with a tale of adult mom guilt, adultery, and spicy family drama from Bangladesh. Rasheda Begum, her daughter-in-law Tahmina, and Imran discover a dirty family secret about her son Kamruzzaman Imon, leading to a bombshell phone call that will make you say, “Whoa… petty, but iconic.” Both stories are tied together by determined mothers, inner voices, and the mischievous impulses that make us do things we probably shouldn’t.

Cheese Mom Guilt and the Dirty Secret 🎧 Perfect for true crime comedy lovers, fans of petty crimes, weird news, viral stories, and family drama gone wrong.
