Burnout

Jarvis and Jordan are at wit's end. They're doing too much, burning the candle at both ends—but the show must go on. Sad Boyz is, after all, our group therapy session that we share with all of you... emotional voyeurs (?) On a (late) episode of Sad Boyz, the boys discuss their experiences with burnout: Where it comes from, how it affects us and the people around us, and finally what we can do about it. Also in this episode, Jarvis talks about his wildly busy weekend that inspired this episode and a lot of changes in his life and Jordan.. well, Jordan thinks the city from the movie footloose is called footloose.

2018 Predictions

It's 2018, so naturally the Nostradami (that's the plural of Nostradamus if you were wondering) hazard some optimistic (and pessimistic) guesses about what will happen in the new year.  But first, we give a brief history of the Lonely Island because of course we do, we do some shoutouts to our amazing listeners, and Jarvis talks about how crappy it feels to promote his stuff (which reminds me please leave us a review on itunes)  In the topic, we discuss (without spoiling our predictions) Logan Paul, Black Panther and diversity (or lack thereof) in Hollywood, cross-cultural music phenomena like gangam style and despacito, and finally justin timberlake's upcoming album.  As always, we get weird, but new in this episode we get pretty heated while talking about some of the topics, so be sure to listen!

Cleaning House

In preparation for 2018, the boyz clean house. We get really vulnerable about where our mental health has been at lately, Jordan has an apology to the listeners, we talk about how the show has changed our relationship with eachother and finally and we discuss our new years resolutions for the pod. It wouldn't be Sad Boyz without some banter on obtuse subjects, so we also spend time talking about stand up comedy, how neither of us has seen Seinfeld, and we laugh so hard we cry @sadboyzpod Learn more about your ad choices.
