Eat Your Crust

After spending a large majority of our youth in school, going into grad school isn't an easy decision, especially for something as lengthy and intensive as a PhD program! Today we get an inside look into the life of a Bioengineering PhD student and evaluate what factors are important to consider before applying to higher education programs. We also look into the perks of having a phD (vs. Masters) in the Bioengineering field & how the programs themselves set you up for success after graduation!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

In our experiences, friendship dynamics can be pretty different depending on the number of friends you have in your “group”. You and your bestie would be what we consider a duo, three’s a crowd, and then we got quads and 5-stacks! Today we muse on the advantages & pitfalls of different-sized friendship units.Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

The song "Mo Money Mo Problems" never took into account that you can funnel your extra money straight into your restaurant/DoorDash budget. Maybe with a little bit of emotional Amazon spending too. Today we get REAL with you guys and share our monthly expenses (please don't judge us!) as well as some of our spending habits & future financial goals. Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

When you grow up playing sports, you have that competitive nature within you... and that includes getting your friends to rally and play your favorite sport with you! Today we bring on our friend who participated in multiple sports growing up, and has now assembled her entire friend group to create a Volleyball Saturday trend with almost 20 people joining each week. For anyone who loves sports, loves competition, or wants to try something new with their friend group, this episode is for you!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

As one of the generations that grew up on social media, we’ve seen the rise and fall of many different websites and apps, with each new trend of social media playing a different role in our lives. From the YOLO Snapchat era to the infamous Tumblr era, and now to new apps like BeReal and BeerBuddy, we dissect how each app makes us feel and act, and try to understand what makes or breaks a social media app!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

Now that we're a little bit more adjusted to the 9-5 in our mid-twenties, the time has come to look for some hobbies! Whether you prefer your hobbies to be calming or exciting, hands-on or virtual, social or solo, there's something out there for the little child in all of us! However, our guest today talks about the meditative, primal nature of her hobby, ceramics, and it does make us intrigued to get our hands on some clay (or slime...or floam...). Join us as we discuss our perspectives & approaches to hobbies in our adulthood! Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

Vacations are always exciting (someone pls implement summer vacations for adults!!!) but part of the fun lies in the prepping & packing process ;-) From packing cubes to travel size toiletries, nothing is sexier than a perfectly planned capsule wardrobe organized neatly inside the perfect size suitcase. Today we discuss all of the hard work that goes into pre-vacation prep work, and discuss how our detailed packing & mental prep can make the actual vacation itself more exciting!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

At least once a year, the unavoidable task of the Performance Review comes up. No pressure, but any potential you hope to have for a promotion, raise, or bonus are all based on this submission. Today we discuss how we go about the Performance Review process, any tips or tricks we've gleaned from our managers, and do some roleplaying action with our *professional voices* on!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod

This month, Crystal & Jeesoo ran a 5k together! We discuss how our running journeys have morphed from running the mile in middle school to incorporating runs into our 9-5s. Do we enjoy running now? It's tough to say... but we invite on some friends who run much longer & faster than us to see if they can pinpoint what qualifies someone as a 'runner'!Support the showFollow us on social media @eatyourcrustpod
