165: r/malelivingspace, the great whale explosion of 1970, and the Patrick Bateman lifestyle
12/09/20 • 78 min
Are you even a young male professional if you don't have an Eames chair, artisan cocktail bar, and uncomfortable Ikea sectional? r/malelivingspace thinks not. Less cynically, it's a sub dedicated to men making the steps they need to start feeling organized, independent, and enthusiastic about their solo (often) living quarters. It's a great resource for young men looking for tips and tricks on how to feel more organized in a new city, where the rest of their world may feel disorganized. It's also an accidental commentary on the template men use to prove their compliance with a world that values fine-ish taste in art and design. What does that say about commercial design? I'll let you decide.

164: r/AskDocs Pt. 2 - The one where we read the sad story about dying
In pt.2 of our two part series on r/AskDocs, we read the story that brought us to the sub in the first place, a truly beautiful but painful story of death, redemption, and hospice care. This is an emotional episode, but it's an important one, and truly one of the most beautiful and profound things we've ever seen on Reddit.

166: r/respectthreads and the birds & the bees with R-rated Sims expansion packs from u/dogboobes
We've all spent countless hours debating who would win in a fight between two entities that probably will never actually fight each other despite our collective attempt to will it into existence. It's fun, silly, and if you're lucky, will generate a real fight between two people who were apparently just one argument about the Easter Bunny and Captain Crunch away from violent blows. Well, if you want more artillery next time you need to outwit someone with your raw knowledge of Ronald McDonald's physical skillset, r/respectthreads is your greatest resource.
