Take your protein pills and put your helmets on LIITL Listeners because these idgits are about to launch! "At the time of recording" it's Easter and while Mike's all hot 'n cross about his bland hot cross buns, Priya wonders what happened to Jesus after his "risening" (yes, it's a new word), and there's lots of discussion about the universe, stars and best of all--Uranus. That's right folks, informed chatter this Artem-isn't.

Wednesday Apr 01, 2026

...so we'll say it on the podcast! We're talking lyrics that were changed for radio.  But before we get to that, we've got serious issues to discuss. Like who knew that the thumbs up emoji 👍 was so divisive? All these years we thought bears hibernate…think again! And holding onto misspoken words from ages, no-decades ago...ruminating we are! Look it up kids. Oh and BTW this is take 2 of this episode because…well check out our instagram to find out. So let's get it started LIITL Listeners!

Ep. 73 Spring Break Music Madness

Wednesday Mar 25, 2026

Wednesday Mar 25, 2026

The topic of making friends as adults makes another appearance as Mike gives an update on his new mission. Plus we say 'hasta la vista' to our recent (*failed) segment on The Voice: Battle of Champions. Priya just returned from an kinda-maybe-sorta disappointing all-inclusive vacay at an "adults only" resort in Mexico that got her hot 'n bothered. And what about the music? Was it no bueno? Tune in to find out LIITL Listeners!

Ep. 72 Banter 'n Bulls*t

Wednesday Mar 18, 2026

Wednesday Mar 18, 2026

This week we be off script y'all. That's right, we figured we'd do something a tad bit different by doing all bullsh*t all episode! Is it different though? A little more about shlemiel and shlimazle, Mike introduces a bop (watch him dance on our insta post @theLIITLpodcast), and we debate whether Timothée's star has taken a nose dive.

Wednesday Mar 11, 2026

Priya has an 'aha' moment of self-realization that is less than flattering, Mike's cookie obsession is revisited, and we explore our insecurities when making new friends as adults. Then it's a trip down memory lane (waaaayyyyy down) to play 'Name That Show' as we take turns singing TV theme songs. Here's one--Schlemiel, Schlimazel, Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!

Ep. 70 Who Run the World? GIRLS!

Wednesday Mar 04, 2026

Wednesday Mar 04, 2026

Priya worries about how much she’s been oversharing and as proof, Mike summarizes all her poop stories...three to be exact. And we introduce a new segment based on The Voice: Battle of Champions! Ok, now on with the show…and it’s all about the ladies! Let us regale you with some of the musical records that women hold, and they are pretty, pretty cool.

Ep. 69 Boom Boom Tunes

Wednesday Feb 25, 2026

Wednesday Feb 25, 2026

We're bringing sexy back LIITL Listeners! We revisit our 'sex faces' and whether we have 'sex voices', being vain when smacking pelvises together, and give a shout out to Canadian comic master, Mark McKinney for his visual description of...'the act' in the show Superstore. But let's get to the dirty folks, and we mean the songs that make you feel dirty--in a good way! PS we didn't even plan it but what a happy coincidence that this is episode number 69.

Wednesday Feb 18, 2026

There's no time for banter this week because Priya has FINALLY watched Heated Rivalry and it's about to get steamy up in the studio! Shockingly we bare-ly discuss the sex scenes (see what we did there?) BUTT, as usual, Priya keeps the innuendos flowing as we focus on the incredible music that deepens all the feels in this beautiful, truly Canadian, global hit show. Hats (or shall we say, 'helmets'?) off to show creator, Jacob Tierney, and soundtrack composer, Peter Peter for creating a show that celebrates love in all it's emotional and physical nakedness.

Ep. 67 Travel Tunes

Wednesday Feb 11, 2026

Wednesday Feb 11, 2026

Mike's hot-spotting his wifi connection while Priya is hot-spotting in sunny Vietnam! We're on opposite sides of the world during this episode and Priya makes sure to rub it in. A tribute to the great Catherine O'Hara, a shout out to the pure joy and compassion that are hallmarks of Schitt's Creek and Heated Rivalry, plus we touch upon Bieber's Grammys performance and the first-ever Grammys win by a KPOP group. BUT FIRST we talk about the music we listen to on vacation, from the flight (to reduce anxiety eek!) to moments exploring a new city, to songs that remind you of certain getaways. This is a full episode Little Listeners, enjoy!

Ep. 66 Loooove Thy Self!

Wednesday Feb 04, 2026

Wednesday Feb 04, 2026

Priya's obsessed with The Next Act, while Mike actually comes through on one of Priya's 'please listen to this' requests! Plus a new/old song that relates directly to this week's episode which is all about self-love...not the sexual kind so get your hands where we can see them! It's love month and The Greatest Love of All is loving yourself LIITL Listeners!
