Ep. 65 Monde Who? Monde What?

In today's English class, wait, let's try again. In today's episode we're talking about mondegreen's. What's a mondegreen you ask? Listen in to find out :) But first, we discuss getting money as gifts, Toronto's love of a goddam pilot project, and the excitement of the Sears catalogue arrival...random January chat, yo! Alright, let's carry on.

Ep. 64 The Priya Show

We know the holidays have just ended but this really is the MOST wonderful time of the year because this week (drum roll please) it's ALL ABOUT PRIYA! Mike introduces Priya to a new…ahm…colourful way to describe a part of the male torso, there may be some tea spilled from our childhood diaries, and Priya gives her confession and then announces her gift to all the LIITL Listeners for this episode. What will we get up to? It's all up in the air, or should we say in the sky? Tune in to find out!

Ep. 63 Surprise!

When is it time to stop saying "Happy New Year"? Is self-imposed celibacy really a thing? Do Priya and Mike really find everything "interesting"? Don't worry folks, it's uphill from this riveting bullish*t because this week it's all about surprise songs! WTF does that mean? LIITL Listeners, you'll just have to tune in to find out!

Ep. 62 Hangover and Hungover Songs

It's our first show of 2026...WHEEEE! Have we changed for better (or worse)? Are we ready to deal with stress and bullish*t in the year ahead? Mike reflects on coping mechanisms from his youth (how he's not 400lbs and a diabetic is still a mystery) and Priya discusses being a "parentified" child - how the EFF did we make it this far? Ok LET IT GO folks and on with the show! 

Ep. 61 Our Top 5 Musical Moments of 2025

Sarah Palin makes the pod as we celebrate the music memories that made our year. But first we talk about segments we can steal from other podcasts (hey, it's the sincerest form of flattery!), a new listener gives us marketing advice (that we won't take) and feedback (that we will) and Mike declares a new motto for our year ahead: 'we're going to talk shit, have fun and hopefully entertain'. Big dreams folks, HUGE! Here we gooooooo!

Ep. 60 Ho Ho Holiday Hot Mess II

That's right, we messy sometimes, and our holiday episode is ABSOLUTELY one of those times! This year we somehow focus on the 'naughty' side of the holidays: Priya is a questionable holiday song love, we discuss whether we need couples counselling, Mike falls into the trap of guessing a woman's age and we reveal the most hated holiday songs. And Priya says "rapey" a LOT...hmmm. Bah humbug folks!

Ep. 59 Greed, Gluttony & Golddiggers

Priya gets a 'little extra' talking about MMF, 'no holds barred' porn and Mike has a new fave, sexed-up tv show. Close talkers and exit strategies are discussed before we finally get back to our series on the Seven Deadly Sins. This time we're looking at greed, gluttony and all those lil gold diggers.

Ep. 58 Beating the Sophomore Slump

Our nighttime sleep thoughts are discussed--Mike obsesses about being healthier while Priya simply wants to shut her brain down. A LIITL Listener sends us clickbait on IG and Mike FINALLY censors Priya which results in a truly (what Priya thinks is an) underwhelming story. Then it's on with the show as we chat about artists who have beaten the sophomore slump (after explaining exactly what 'sophomore slump' means).

Ep. 57 You're On Your Own Kid--Artists Who Went Solo

We sure talk a lot of sh*t on this show, we mean literally, and this week is no exception! Although this time we blame it on the dogs. Then it's more TMI from Priya as she rants about grey pubes and no pubes. But we digress, our theme this week is artists who've gone solo and we got lots to say about that. Go on, give it a listen!

Ep. 56 Second Comings...In Music

We start off by asking our LIITL Listeners to give the gift of US this holiday season. Hey, we're not beneath a bit of shameless self-promotion! Mike talks apples and baking his FIRST PIE EVER while Priya praises her new fave baking show set in the world of Harry Potter. Then it's all about second comings...get your minds outta the gutter, we mean artists who've had comebacks, sometimes more than one!
