Polish up those boogie boards and tell your boss “SEE YA” because it’s time to get pitted (so pitted) in this totally tubular anti-capitalism tidal wave of an episode. Burnout brothers Grace and Kristin are coming in hot to teach you all about the ADHD burnout cycle–what it is, why it happens to us, and what the heck you can do about it. Kristin passionately preaches her pro-union agenda and gives you permission to disassociate as long as you’re drinking your water, while Grace bullies you into taking your sick days and gives some tips on healing your nervous system that are annoying but you know she’s right. With advice ranging from “set better boundaries at work” to “just burn down a building it’s not that hard,” we have a little bit of something for everyone.
