Theme Restaurants, Fitspo, Hank Evans (Me; Myself & Irene)

Love Hate Relationship

Love: Theme Restaurants

Andy gets wonderfully nostalgic this episode as he takes his Love segment to talk about Theme Restaurants. He discusses his own definitions (shorthand: Casa Bonita is a “yes,” Red Lobster is a “no”), his personal connection to some weird and interesting examples, and even tells the story of almost crashing a Star Trek wedding. Alex, meanwhile, talks way too much about the Hard Rock Café, and everyone discovers that there’s a restaurant shaped like a hat.

Hate: Fitspo

Alex dusts off his fitness rage to discuss the grossness that is the Fitspo community. He talks about its history, the awkwardness of its rise as opposed to the even worse “thinspo” movement, and even shoehorns in reference to his favorite weightlifter. Andy, meanwhile, discovers way too many thirst traps and has his Instagram algorithm ruined.

Relationship: Hank Evans (Me; Myself & Irene)

Returning to Am I the Asshole?, this episode’s question sees an asker wondering if it’s wrong to lacrosse-yeet the dog crap that his neighbor leaves on his front lawn back at their house. Andy appreciates the chaos of this encounter while Alex, for once, tries to be the adult on the room (before recommending an alternative that is way less illegal and way more passive aggressive).
