Saying ”I Don’t Know”

Originally, this topic came to mind because I see people not using it enough. Meaning they would pretend to know more than they actually did.
Then I was made aware of the flip side, that people also use it as a dead end. Someone may ask you something you do know about and say, "I don't know," as a means to not engage further. 
How often do you use the phrase, "I don't know?" How do you use it? 

Privilege

How many privileges do you have? We talk about how some may be acquired/earned while others you are just born with. Does privilege have a more positive or negative outcome on our society? How are we made aware of certain privileges we may not know we have? This is what we discuss in this episode.

Unlearning

Sometimes we learn things or pick up habits and later realize we should probably unlearn this behavior… or do we? How do we know when it’s time to unlearn a behavior? 🤔 From traditions, to culture, to religion, to politics. Many times we don't do it or want to do it because it is inconvenient, but does that mean you shouldn't unlearn this behavior. Is it harder to learn something new, or unlearn something old?

Comedy in our Culture

I guess it really means Comedy on 2022. I think most of us have realized, the rules have changed in comedy. Why? Are they necessary? Who decides if something has crossed the line or not? Should comedy cross boundaries or just be "safe?" (Plus a lot of fun Simpsons references😁)
Special guests Ricky Rodriguez & JJ Gomez. Some of our funniest friends. 

Intentions vs. Outcomes

We judge ourselves based on our intentions, but we judge others based on their actions. Do others have good intentions and we just took it the wrong way? Family has created habits in us that we may not be too fond of, was it their intention to create these habits? What about health and how we take care of ourselves. We know what this could be leading to, but yet we still don't take care of ourselves as best as we could. Are we expecting a different outcome?

Villains as Protagonists - Are you the villain in someone’s story?

With movies and books depicting the other side of the story of popular villains, such as Cruel, Maleficent, and Joker, we decided to dive in to what this does to our minds. Are we empathetic? Should we be empathetic?
How do you handle real life-situations such as someone taking credit for a group project? Or you friend is on the most wanted list, do you turn them in?
Are we ever on that side of the coin, and become the villain in somebody else's story?
