Did you ever imagine what the last couple of years would be like? Yeah, so did we. Was it what we envisioned? Er, nope.

But be warned, this is not an objective show. We have views. A LikeMind Media production

Paul's been away being an influencer. We discuss age difference in the approach. Hair update: Paul is definitely going to buy a silk bonnet, but shock news from Phylecia. And, with an impending ban on TikTok in the US, we discuss the impact on people's lives and livelihoods. **PLEASE NOMINATE US FOR A PODCAST AWARD** It would mean the world to us t…

This may be Paul's last episode as his health app suggests he may die soon. Iran fires drones and missiles at Israel and the world watches live as it unfolds. Except Phylecia who was unaware. We comments on Iran's strategy. Phylecia was at a travel conference and learned much about travel influencers and whether they are able to generate the income…

North America experiences a total solar eclipse. What was your experience and why was it underwhelming. Does this mean the new world order is now commencing and why did it not commence at the last solar eclipse. Paul travels by bus and experiences feral kids. Plus, we discuss whether AI is living up to the claim that it will make us all more produc…

We discuss Die With Zero by Bill Perkins, a book about spending your wealth while you're alive. Our main topic of this episode is family IT support. Are you the member of the family (or friendship group) that is always called upon to provide IT support no matter what you do for a living. Are you relatives confused by what your profession is, but be…

Because no one is a responsible adult anymore, everyone is blaming others for what's going on. Russia blames a combination of Ukraine, the US and the UK for the Moscow terrorist attack. The UK blames China for cyber-everything and, of course, DEI is the cause of everything (side-eye). Support the show at https://humans-exhaust-me.captivate.fm/suppo…

The Kate conundrum is over with a 'video' purporting to be from the farm shop Will and Kate frequent when they want a tiger loaf. Like it will stop the speculation. Paul is annoyed that it's killed the vibe. In an exemplary demonstration of how democracy could work, Putin has been re-elected for another six-year term. The IOC are not happy that he'…

Sorry, y'all, Paul went to see Phylecia in Arizona and we didn't record a show - we were having too much fun! We hadn't seen each other in four years. While over in the US, Paul forced Phylecia and her husband to watch the State of the Union address and the Republican rebuttal - quite the experience for all concerned. Katie Britt, the chosen rebutt…

Content Warning: we briefly discuss Aaron Bushnell's self immolation and reaction to it. Do you need to know what racism is? You're in luck, '30p Lee' Anderson has helped us define it. Trump is doing the same. Trad wives are getting divorced and they don't know what to do, except post about it on TikTok. We also discuss the phenomenon that is Reesa…

Alexei Navalny is dead. X has already blocked his wife. It raises the question: who is rooting for Putin? Harry Styles has a new hairline. LA is expensive - how do people date? Maybe you need to be romantically involved with more than one person just to split the bill in more ways. A LikeMind Media production.…

King Charles has cancer. We wish him well, but the media coverage is insane. Was it Meghan? Did Baba Vanga predict this? Hmm. In this episode, we talk tattoos. Do you have one? Would you get one? Where? Let's discuss. Support the show at https://humans-exhaust-me.captivate.fm/support A LikeMind Media production…

By the time you see this, retaliation for the attack on a US military base may have happened. We don't know what's going on either, so we're waiting to see what happens next. Meanwhile, we talk through Northern Ireland's government, and the prospect of a republican First Minister. It seems crazy to think that a few decades earlier the UK population…

Trump is a dead cert for the GOP nomination - but what happens if the other candidates drop out and he then goes to jail? The British are being told to get ready for war, and they need to find 45,000 people to sign up to fight. The British are timing their fights with the Houthis to coincide with bad news from the UK Government. It's 1939. Find out…

Well that escalated quickly. Following last episode's predictions, we already have one checked off. With the US and UK missile strikes against the Houthi (who are hard AF), the region for conflict has definitely grown. The UK Ministry of Defence is telling its citizens to prepare for war within the next five years. Get ready, folks. With Trump's ec…

Happy New Year dear listener/viewer! In the last episode, we reviewed our 2023 bingo card. Now we're looking ahead to 2024 (with trepidation) and give our predictions on what this year will bring. It's not all doom and gloom - a bit of fun! Tell us your predictions! Support the show at https://humans-exhaust-me.captivate.fm/support A LikeMind Media…

With all the disease, scandal, genocide and general scandal, it's time to wish you a very Happy New Year for 2024! If this show has taught us anything, it's that 2024 will be exactly the same as previous years. Expectations are low, although Phylecia is finally emerging from her Covid isolationist policy this year so there's that to look forward to…

It's the last show of 2023, but there's still over a week left of it so, if you don't mind, we'll leave our review of the year until it's actually over, because ANYTHING could still happen. Instead, we discuss: Icelandic fissure 100 day cough Ukraine losing the war Trump pardoning himself Royal Christmas cards Tetchy Rishi Influencer George Santos …

Boris Johnson considered a special operation in the Netherlands to grab vaccines. Perhaps the UK government is about to invade Rwanda to secure the safety of the country. It's not like Britain has ever colonised a country before. Phylecia has beef with the big franchise owner fully utilising their intellectual property. Is nostalgia and reinventing…
  continue reading
 
Phylecia does not open the news so it's up to Paul to relay what's happening. There's a new virus around, an old one rebranded, just like Gen Z and the nineties. We talk about how world leaders are petty little children fighting about who owns what and whether someone is going to give their toys back. The UK is probably going to war with Greece as …
  continue reading
 
In this episode, we talk about the return of David Cameron (ex-UK Prime Minister) into government as Cruella Suella Braverman is sacked for undermining Rishi Sunak and encouraging the far right to attack pro-Palestinian marches. We also discuss what it's like to get into fitness in your forties and why it's different to when you're in your twenties…

Paul needs to get a few things off his chest. He just sounds old. Phylecia is still hip and happening. In this episode we discuss being childless and how people feel it is acceptable to ask certain questions of other adults capable of making life decisions. How do you navigate dating when you don't want kids? Do you put it in your profile? Links: S…

In our bravest attempt at discussing Israel/Hamas/Gaza yet, we discuss the wider observations of what's happening in the world as a consequence of the war and how it has been used to effectively normalize antisemitism. The world is struggling to make common sense of anything. We also discuss the UK Covid-19 Inquiry and some of the revelations from …

Seems like we can't get away from what's happening in Israel and Gaza, so it's time to look at some of the activities with world leaders and young people explaining the situation on social media. In other news, how often do you wash your pillow? Not the pillow case, the actual pillow? And, if you're using Facebook, are you one of the people in midl…

While the war in Israel-Gaza intensifies, and while the many other conflicts that are now not being mentioned wage on for the many millions of suffering people caught up in them, we simply want to create a distraction with this episode. Acknowledging the privilege that comes with being able to do this, this episode is meant as light relief. Phyleci…

There's no getting away from it: this is a difficult topic to talk about. Fraught with danger from either sides of the extremely complex discussion. We try to navigate what is going on, while being sensitive to the events in Israel and Palestine. We quite possibly get things wrong and for that we are sorry. Although we usually watch five minutes of…

Paul is in Massachusetts while Phylecia is in California - and yet Paul has not made the effort to go visit Phylecia, even though they are now in the same country. Paul finds Trader Joes and marvels at the organic hipster nature of it. He buys all the things. In this episode we talk about: (US) Speaker McCarthy losing his job (UK) Prime Minister Su…

How often do you think about the Roman Empire? This is just one of the many things Phylecia, and the entire world, is thinking about this week. Other things we discuss in this episode are how lonely Gen Z is, and what they're doing about it. This includes eating together, sometimes with charcuterie boards. Paul is not a fan. A LikeMind Media produc…

It's our 150th episode. Thanks for making it this far! Paul has been in crowds of 35,000 people and doesn't feel well. He also tried vaping and discusses his experience and why disposable vapes really are a problem for the environment and for kids. Who's going to take responsibility for the kids? Certainly not Gen X it seems as they have no desire …

Schools are falling down in the UK, but it's not Rishi's fault, he's just the prime minister. If he was a US politician, he could be in power for 400 years based on the age of senior senators - we ask why they don't just retire. Our main topic in this episode is about making time for friends, as adults. If you have relationships that are long dista…

Both Phylecia and Paul have been on planes to different places: Kansas City, MO and Nice, France. We talk about the experience of getting on a plane and who the heck is Deathbed Deborah? Why can't older dads talk to their toddlers like they're not their employees having an appraisal? While in France, Paul went to Monaco and now has views. We discus…
  continue reading
 
I mean, obviously, but we're exploring what happens when you go on a big old trip and the other adults all have a ton of kids. How does this change behaviour of the parents? What roles do the parents take and why is it that men cook all the meat? We also summarize the latest developments in 45's legal issues and try and the latest attempt at demoni…

This episode was recorded on 8 August 2023, the best day of the year to manifest your dreams into reality. What is manifesting? Why is it like religion and how is your vision scuppered by the many many retrogrades this summer, your star sign and sun sign. Is it all a load of baloney? A LikeMind Media production…

British refugees from wildfires in Greece are escaping in small boats. Oh the irony. Twitter is dead. X is born. We talk about rash rebrands and the impact on people who built their whole business around something that disappeared overnight and how people are grieving. Somehow we get talking about retirement - you should probably skip the last five…
  continue reading
 
The world is on fire - literally in Southern Europe, North America and China. Just what you need when it's summer vacay time. In this episode we discuss the those who prepare for holiday. Some are over-preparers, other seasoned travellers like Phylecia just seem to take a sandwich bag and be done with it. A LikeMind Media Production…

Elon and Zuck are at it. Who has the bigger one and why is it Zuck? Yes, men need therapy. In this episode we discuss the phenomenon of TikTok couples (in love, gay with kids, interracial, age gap). What motivates them to set up an account? Is it a money thing? What happens if the couple splits? Who has custody of the account?…
  continue reading
 
Apparently all the best news and current affairs podcasts shout EMERGENCY EPISODE for this topic. We're just recording early because Paul has to go live life for a few days. Boris Johnson gets his friends some honorary titles and then resigns from parliament. Donald Trump gets indicted for keeping nuclear codes in his bathroom. We discuss the impli…

Phylecia has witnessed a biker rally. Paul has been to a Harry Styles concert. This is the chasm that exists between the two lives of your podcast hosts. But what happens when those lives are over, and you have friends and connections all over the world in real life and in the digital world? Who knows who to contact? In this episode, we discuss wha…

Paul is reeling from the injustice of Finland not winning Eurovision. We talk about how Europe needs a bit of joy and glitter. In this episode we discuss National Conservatism, or Nat-Cs as they are being referred to as in the UK (mainly by the left wing). A big conference in London has attracted the right of the Conservative party, speakers who ar…
  continue reading
 
The King and Queen have been robed and crowned with spangles and glitter from the colonies. Paul provides some commentary. More weekly mass shootings in the US. People are not praying hard enough. Anything remotely related to mental health is seemingly a reason to be seen as a risk of being a murderer. We go through a list of people who are problem…
  continue reading
 
Phylecia is alive and well, despite kayaking in dangerous border areas. Good - we need her to try and make sense of American TikTok that is going off about how the British talk about international cuisine. It's not like there are more important issues to get angry about: like the Coronation of Charles III and the suggestion that subjects may wish t…
  continue reading
 
According to a new report, Black women are more than four times more likely to die in pregnancy or childbirth than white women in the UK. Asian women are twice as likely to die. We look at why minority women are not being listened to. Paul gives Phylecia a quick update on the Coronation - she's not bothered. Our main topic is the subject of bros - …

We're in the second quarter of the year so it's time for a quick catch up on the Humans Exhaust Me bingo card (we're close to crossing off quite a few). Today we discuss the Dalai Lama and the controversy around a video circulating online where His Holiness appears to ask a young boy to suck his tongue. Whatever you think of what happened is one th…
  continue reading
 
In this episode, we are ignoring humans as much as possible. There's a lot going on and the next episode is likely to be big. Paul has been to Berlin and has realised the state of the UK is, surprisingly, not what the government would have you believe. While Paul is living peak Zaddy era, Phylecia is living through Paul while she goes deep into the…

Culture wars go Premier League in the UK while tech bros lose their money in Silicon Valley. But we're not here for that. We're here for the episode you've all been waiting for: our feature on modern male grooming and skincare routines. Men are wearing lace front wigs and make up. Paul's getting pretty for summer - what advice does he need so he ca…

This is somewhat of a ragefest as Paul is furious about the UK government's dehumanising of people crossing the channel in small boats. With aggressive tweets and general shoutiness, Paul and Phylecia considers where this stems from and the ways in which this nefarious language is being normalized.By BizPaul & Phylecia Jones

Brexit is done. Again. The gaslighting is incredible as the UK still does not have vegetables. We have an update on our Bingo Card 2023 - we're getting close to crossing off several items. In the UK, the age you can get married is raised to 18. In the US, child marriage is very much legal. Join us as we talk through how we got to this point, what m…
