MySpace Dates, Subscription Gate & Mormon Fate

In this episode, Rik and Michele bounce from the absurd to the oddly relatable, starting with a MySpace-era blast from the past that somehow turned into a questionable date. Michele also shares why she keeps noticing a strange pull toward Mormon culture (and “cult-adjacent” rabbit holes she definitely didn’t mean to fall into), while TikTok’s latest Scientology trend proves the algorithm has no chill.Meanwhile, Rik’s convinced he’s found termites—until the truth turns out to be something far more annoying and much smaller. Add in dermatologist visits, the never-ending subscription economy, overly enthusiastic Instagram likers, and the ongoing struggle to find honest repair people, and you’ve got a week that feels like chaos with a Wi-Fi connection.It’s part nostalgia, part conspiracy-lite, and fully fueled by everyday life going slightly off the rails.
