Ep. 69 - It’s Giving Too Good at Giving w/ Sebastian Conelli

Joined by friend of the show and Loud About Nothing co-host Sebastian Conelli, the conversation ricochets from Staten Island Italians on the internet to dating when you’re broke, busy, and spiritually exhausted. Things get intimate: giver vs. receiver energy, workaholism killing romance, Gilmore Girls as a roadmap to softness, and why third spaces are disappearing (and what Brian has unfortunately replaced them with). The episode also delivers peak New York storytelling with examples of public crying, subway kindness, snow trash, sanitation worker appreciation, and multiple absolutely harrowing “I shit my pants in public” confessions. A caller asks for petty answers only after being humiliated by a former friend-with-benefits who tried to rope them into a threesome with a pretendian. They answer: You don’t owe politeness to people who crossed your boundaries and sometimes the most healing move is choosing yourself, loudly.FOR MORE OF US IN YOUR LIFE, BECOME AN OFFICIAL WISE ASS: sagebasedwisdom.supercast.com Hosts: Jana Schmieding (@janaunplgd) and Brian Bahe (@brian_bahe)Guest: Sebastian Conelli (@sebastianconelli)Music: Steve Jenkins (@stevejenkins)Producer: John Delviscio (@johndelviscio)Have a question or comment about anything?
