This week, the Losers talk about the concept of celebrating our failures. On the surface, this seems like a contradiction of terms since failure has such a negative connotation. However, what if we started looking at the things we fail at as meant-to-be building blocks to what we’re actually supposed to do next? Seems like a better way to live and …

This week, the Losers discuss the concept of Regret. Living with our past mistakes and the pain of things we did or didn’t try can make us wistful and even depressed.

This week, the Losers discuss adult bullying. We’re not talking about childhood playground bullying - we’re talking about the mean jabs we throw at loved ones and friends, and then play off as “just a joke.” We’ve all bullied as adults and we’ve all been on the receiving end of bullying and hurtful comments. Why do we do this as grown-ups - especia…

Does the idea of having to make amends freak you out? A…

This week, the Losers discuss the concept of surrender. Letting go of results and giving up control is a crucial step towards experiencing peace.

This week, the Losers talk about asking for help. Why the hell is it so difficult to admit we need help? Most of us never want to acknowledge to ourselves, much less to others, that we don’t know how to do something.

This week, the Losers discuss self-centeredness. It’s easy to get caught up in our own shit, but this can make the people around us feel unseen.

Speaking of which, does Beau lie about reading books? Does Nick lie to his dad about his whereabouts? Does Lisa lie about actually liking Beau and Nick ?! Li…

This week, the Losers talk about the concept of daring to suck at something. Whether it’s trying something for the first time or the 10th time, why do we keep coming back and how do we know when to quit? And why are we willing to suck at something, even if it takes YEARS to be successful or good at it? If you’ve been listening for a while, you know…

This week, the Losers ask themselves the question, “Does Misery Really Love Company?”. Sure, misery is WAY more fun when we can drag someone down with us, but is it the best way to get through the pain? And when we find ourselves being miserable, how do we get out of that cycle? We’re all miserable sometimes - Lord knows, Beau and Nick make Lisa mi…
